There is a Clippit parody in the ''Plus! Dancer'' application included in [[Microsoft Plus! Digital Media Edition]] which is later included as ''Windows Dancer'' in [[Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005]]. The dancing character '''Boo Who'''?<ref>{{cite web |title=Microsoft.com |url=https://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/downloads/desktop/dancers.mspx |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20050214030453/https://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/downloads/desktop/dancers.mspx |archive-date=2005-02-14 |access-date=2017-09-27 |publisher=Microsoft.com}}</ref> is wearing a ghost outfit, roughly having the shape of Clippit's body, with a piece of wire visible underneath. Occasionally, the white sheet slips, and reveals the thin curve of steel. The description mentions "working for a short while for a Redmond, WA based software company, where he continued to work until being retired in 2001".

Clippit was featured in the music video for [["Weird Al" Yankovic]]'s song "[[Word Crimes]]."<ref>{{Cite web |title="Weird Al" Yankovic - Word Crimes (Official 4K Video) |date=15 July 2014 |url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Gv0H-vPoDc |via=www.youtube.com |access-date=27 November 2017 |archive-date=28 November 2017 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20171128191430/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Gv0H-vPoDc |url-status=live }}</ref>

Vigor is a Clippit-inspired parody software—a version of the [[Vi (text editor)|vi]] text editor featuring a rough-sketched Clippit. The name is a [[portmanteau]] of vi (the name of the Unix text editor) and [[Igor (fictional character)|Igor]], [[Dr. Frankenstein]]'s assistant. Vigor has spawned ports to other text editors as well, including [[Vim (text editor)|Vim]].

On April 1, 2015, social media website [[Tumblr]] created a parody of Clippit, Coppy, as an April Fools joke. Coppy is an anthropomorphized photocopier that behaved in similar ways to Clippit, asking the user if they want help. Coppy would engage the reader in a series of pointless questions, with a dialogue box written in [[Comic Sans MS]], which was deliberately designed to be extremely annoying.<ref>{{cite web |last=Mallikarjuna |first=Krutika |date=April 3, 2015 |title=Coppy Was The Best Damn Thing That Ever Happened To Tumblr |url=https://www.buzzfeed.com/kmallikarjuna/coppy-was-the-best-damn-thing-that-ever-happened-to-tumblr |access-date=May 2, 2019 |website=[[BuzzFeed]]}}</ref> In 2022, Tumblr created a [[Youtooz]] collectible of Coppy.

Multiple episodes of ''[[Star Trek: Lower Decks]]'' feature a holographic character named "Badgey" who takes the anthropomorphic form of the communication badges featured in the series. The character is initially imbued with characteristics reminiscent of Clippit, but malfunctions and becomes a recurring antagonist.

A [[hypercasual game]] for mobile devices and on [[Windows]] and [[macOS]] via [[Steam (service)|Steam]] called ''Progressbar95'' features a spoof of Clippit as a common NPC, often part of annoying popups or carrying sticks of dynamite or guns to hurt the player's progress.
