Line 1: {{trope}} Examples of [[{{TOPLEVELPAGE}}]]s in [[{{SUBPAGENAME}}]] include: * Strong Sad from ''[[Homestar Runner (Web Animation)\|Homestar Runner]]'', whose two brothers Strong Mad and Strong Bad enjoy heaping physical and psychological abuse on him.▼ ▲* Strong Sad from ''[[~~Homestar Runner (Web Animation)\|~~Homestar Runner]]'', whose two brothers Strong Mad and Strong Bad enjoy heaping physical and psychological abuse on him. Also from ''Homestar Runner'', almost everyone in Strong Bad's comic book ''Teen Girl Squad''. Nebulon, Rumble Red, the King of Town, Cartoon Mary Palaroncini, Coach Z, and 1-Up are also frequently abused. There's only one person who ''does'' like Nebulon's style... and she's an enormous alien cow. However, it's justified in Red, Mary's and 1-Up's cases, in that they're parodies of annoying cartoon sidekicks. * Besides, Red's a [[Dirty Communists\|communist fool.]] Homestar Runner himself can also qualify, considering how many times Strong Bad has insulted, assaulted and tricked Homestar for the sake of his own enjoyment. That and Marzipan keeps breaking up with him. Bubs also squeezes Homestar for all the money he can get, but Bubs does that to [[Adam Smith Hates Your Guts\|EVERYBODY.]] * John T. Hedgehog from [[~~International Moron Patrol (Web Animation)\|~~International Moron Patrol]]. Issues with John's creator resulted in the series' creator, Roger, [[Take That\|reducing John to basically a dumber version of]] [[South Park\|Kenny]] (though the series explains that John has a guardian angel who revives him at some point after every death. In recent episodes, however, John's abuse has been reduced significantly. * Germaine in the ''[[Neurotically Yours]]'' cartoon series. She's a magnet to stalkers and perverted men, has trouble controlling her weight, is the butt of Foamy's criticisms and [[Jerkass]] rage, and can't get any of her poetry published. She recently shaved her hair and gained more weight as a desperate attempt to get men to stop hitting on her. It doesn't. * [[Red vs. Blue]]. Pretty much all the characters get their turn, but Grif probably qualifies the most, getting yelled at, insulted, threatened, beat up and even shot on occasion, all because he didn't want to risk his life in a war. Oh and because he's [[Deadpan Snarker\|snarky.]] ** Washington sort of strays into the territory when you consider his speech at the end of ''Recreation'', {{spoiler\|leading to a possible case of [[The Dog Bites Back]]:}} {{quote\| {{spoiler\|'''Chairman:''' Agent Washington, when you find these blue soldiers that you're talking about, what makes you think that they are just going to give you the Epsilon unit when you ask for it?}}\}} {{spoiler\|'''Washington:''' Heh heh. For as long as I can remember, I've been lied to, taken advantage of, shot in the back and left for dead. And now, I have a way out of all of this. What in the ''hell'' makes you think that I'm going to ''ask'' for it?}} * The title character in the ''Charlie the Unicorn'' videos. The blue and pink unicorns apparently come up with extremely convoluted and surreal plans just to make Charlie miserable. This is probably why Charlie is a [[Deadpan Snarker]]. * Jaune Arc, who in the first volume of ''[[RWBY]]''~~, who~~ seems woefully underprepared for the rigors of Beason Academy. {{spoiler\|It's because he faked his transcripts and got in without actually qualifying, because he felt the need to live up to his family's heroic history.}} He [[Lampshaded]] this at one point: {{quote\|'''Jaune:''' I'm tired of being the ~~loveable~~lovable idiot stuck in a tree while his friends are fighting for their lives. ''Don't you understand?'' If I can't do this on my own ... ''then what good am I?''}} :However, he improves dramatically under Pyrrha's tutelage starting late in volume 1, and after volume 3 is a respectable, if average, fighter. {{tropesub-subpagefooter}} ~~{{reflist}}~~ ~~[[Category:Web Animation]]~~ ~~[[Category:Butt Monkey]]~~
