In Rock 'n' Roll High School Forever, the scene where they go over to someone's house and pretend to worship their refrigerator doesn't further the plot or character development in any way.

Looper when they're "torturing" the one guy and his body parts are disappearing one after another.
To clarify, do you mean it wouldn't make sense that his body part would dissapear as they were severed in an alternative past. Or do you mean it doesn't belong on the plot/add to the story?
Not Op, but...
Spoiler for the torture scene in Looper
At the start of that scene, they're inflicting harm that would still allow the dude to do everything he's done so far, just scarred. And the scars are appearing on his future self. It makes a kind of weird sense, if we stretch our imagination.
But they cross well past anything reasonable into injuries that would have just made anyone's past self decide to retire and hide out in the woods in Florida.
It made no sense at all by the end, that his future self was somehow still working for them.

This Scene from Designated Survivor. I'm still chuckling when thinking about it.

The scene where Al Pacino gets slapped by a big black guy wearing only a cowboy hat and a jockstrap in Cruising (1980)
The Office, Season 6, episode 20, “The Leads”. All the characters in this episode always seemed to me like they had a different personality for just this one episode. It really stands out IMO.
I was completely on Michael's side through that whole story. When Phyllis called him numb nuts, I think any other manager would have fired her ass. But they treat Michael like shit sometimes cause he's so forgiving.
Also after the Michael Scott paper company when Phyllis is crying that Michael claimed they were family but went after their customers, yeah Phillis? And what did you guys say when Michael treated you as family? You scoffed at him and brushed him off. So fuck you. Also hate how when you get a new customer you "got a new customer" but when you lose a customer it's "they STOLE the customer". There's no stealing here buddy, just a better salesperson
A lot of scenes are just thinly veiled commercials - why are we spending so much time looking at the front of a brand-new car the characters are getting into? It's always awkward and takes away from the scene.
