For the uninitiated, a "meatbone" is defined as:
meat-bone
(n.)
A basically plausible image, event, or plot point that is much more prevalent in fiction than it is in real life. Often, but not always used to refer to a cartoony visual image.
I have recently submitted that definition of a meatbone (which apparently people think is a penis, IT IS NOT!!!) to Urban Dictionary. My definition is probably on there by the time you're reading this, so please, click that link, vote it up, and we can all let the world know what a meatbone truly is.
And now, the examples!

When two people are stranded on an island starving and they're starving and both imagine each other as different types of food based on their body type. For example a mohawked person becomes a pineapple.
When you run off a cliff and are able to keep running up until the point you look down.
Ahahahaha oh my God I love that desert island one.
I refuse to accept the term meatbone, but I do like when a person goes through a wall and leaves their silhouette.
Also, love at first sight could be a meet/bone.
Also, all males are gay at some point. It's a mandate.
When a little kid decides to run away from home, taking only a polka-dotted knapsack tied to the end of a stick.
Getting drunk off of a jug with three large X's on it.
Someone runs away and leaves a cloud of dust (double Meatbone if it's in the same shape as them).
Death by being crushed under a piano or anvil.
The monitor alone determines the refresh rate, not the processor or graphics card. It varies from another similar phrase, frame rate, in this regard. A machine that can produce a high frame rate in addition to a monitor with a high refresh rate are required for maximum performance. You could not receive the full benefits if either is subpar, which could affect the display's quality.
