* In Happy Days' Season 4, Episode 14 (A Shot in the Dark (1977)), the Fonz uses the phrase to simultaneously harken to his habit of adding "-amundo" to the end of anything; console Richie for a bad shot in a basketball game; and to offer to his date (who was formerly a member of the rival team's date) "that is a Latin phrase; means you're going to stay at my place, at least 'til Monday."
 
* The phrase was used to comic effect in a scene in the 1998 film ''[[Rushmore (film)|Rushmore]]'', "Sic transit gloria... Glory fades" delivered by Max Fischer, the film's protagonist.
* The phrase was also the title of the first-season finale of the drama series ''[[Yellowjackets (TV series)|Yellowjackets]]''.
