Obfuscating Stupidity/Web Original

Examples of in  works include:


 * A favourite trick of Sarah's in Lonelygirl15 and LG15: the resistance. Chapter 3 of the resistance is a good example. Furthermore, while she appears to be The Ditz a lot of the time, she's arguably the smartest member of the TAAG.
 * Although most of the time Homestar Runner seems just plain dumb, in the Strong Bad Email "stupid stuff",
 * Then, in "Kick-A-Ball"  Homestar has officially stolen Strong Bad's claim to Magnificent Bastardry.
 * In The Salvation War,
 * In Sims Big Brother 6, Alison's strategy was to appear to be incredibly stupid, so people wouldn't think she was a threat and never nominate her. She unfortunately went a tad far with it, since managed to misspell "Apple" and people begun to suspect whether or not this was an act or not.
 * It was also surprising when she suddenly spouted a college-level description of an organelle after a montage of stupid questions. ("Controversy? What does that mean?" "Influenza? What's that?" "How do you work the elevator?")
 * The Nostalgia Chick during Kickassia, where she went from sane (or as sane as she can be) and opinionated to a Sarah Palin parody who agreed with N. Bison about everything. When Part Four came around, it was found out she was just pretending to be sweet and stupid while trying to kill him off and take charge for herself.
 * And then there's Kevin Baugh, who fakes being taken over by his alternate personality so he'll be allowed to keep hanging out in his conquered nation, then sets to planting doubts about the Nostalgia Critic's leadership skills.
 * Equestria Chronicles Nocturne. Possibly. It's debatable.
