== Abridged Series ==
* Tristan from ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh!: The Abridged Series]]'' is a combination of a Cloudcuckoolander and a [[The Ditz|ditz]]. Almost every line that he gives is an illogical non-sequitur, such as his randomly given cry of "[[Burn the Witch]]!" and "Take off your clothes!"
** The sad thing is, these two examples are him being ''coherent'' in the context of the scene. More extreme examples of his [[Cloudcuckoolander|CloudCuckoolandiness]] include "I like pudding!" and "I farted, it's funny!"
** Marik is this and [[Poke the Poodle]]. His evil plans include pushing Yugi off a boat so that his hair will get wet and it'll take hours to dry, and borrowing Yugi's puzzle and not giving it back to him...for at least another 2 months. He also invited Dan Green to the Evil Council because he played a villain in one of the Pokemon movies, and seems to believe that there is a difference between killing someone and just 'destroying them a little'. And then there's the standard weirdness.
{{quote|'''Marik:''' By the way, Bakura, [[Your Costume Needs Work|your costume could use some work]].
'''Bakura:''' ''... what?''
'''Marik:''' I mean, I don't like to criticize, but it looks like your mother made that for you!
'''Bakura:''' Marik, this isn't a costume. It's my ''clothes.''
'''Marik:''' Well, you could have done a better job is all I'm saying!
'''Bakura:''' A better job of WHAT? }}
* Momoko from ''[[Wedding Peach Abridged]]'':
{{quote|'''Jamma-P:''' HEY, I DIDN'T WRITE THIS SCRIPT SO DON'T COMPLAIN TO ME!!!!!
'''Yuri:''' Wow, someone needs a nap.
'''Momoko:''' Is it me?
'''Yuri:''' No. No, it's not Momoko. }}
* Nappa of ''[[Dragonball Z Abridged]]'':
{{quote|'''Vegeta:''' Nappa! No! It's a trick!
'''Nappa:''' But Vegeta! Trix are for kids... }}
** There's also [[Insistent Terminology|Super Kami Guru]].
 
== Fan Fiction ==
* The ''[[Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles]]'' fanfic ''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4942679/1/The_Long_Walk The Long Walk]'' has Leonardo musing on the [[Original Character]] Breech Loader, thinking about what it must be like to have to ''try'' to be normal. Breech Loader is a [[Cloudcuckoolander]] with a badly warped appoach to grasping normality, and a tendency to 'lose it' at the most inappropriate of times. As a quote from the story itself:
{{quote|''Trying'' to be normal. He wondered what that was like; to ''try'' to be normal. Most people were normal, or normality came naturally. Or behaved however they saw as normal. Even most crazy people thought they were normal. Breech was ''trying'' to mirror their behaviour to be normal, and like a mirror, it came off wrong. Identical in every way, but somehow wrong; a facade, an illusion. What must it be like, to have to ''try'' to be normal?}}
* Mattie ("The lamp, by the way, is a terrible conversationalist") and Gilbert ("may or may not be wearing only a cape right now") in ''[[Part Right, Half Wrong, a Third Crazy]]''.
** Mattie is a beautiful combination of [[Cloudcuckoolander]] and [[Deadpan Snarker]]. Where would we be without his arguments with his bedside lamp, among other things?
* For a moment, [[Calvin and Hobbes|Calvin]] in the fanfic ''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4893134/1/Theories_About_Nuclear_Winter# Theories About Nuclear Winter] when talking to Susie Derkins about [[Makes Sense in Context|working on a shrimp farm in Florida, and wondering if they farm crabs]].
{{quote|"I'm going to work on a shrimp farm. Or something. Some kind of farm. Do they farm crabs? I mean, they must. It's not like crabs just walk into the grocery store. Though I guess they could if they wanted to. Wouldn't that be funny? I don't know, maybe not. But I guess if I was farming crabs I might get pinched. What?"}}
Line 8 ⟶ 31:
* flintlockEnthusiast and oceanRising qualify for this, in the Homestuck [[Fanfic]] [[Adult Stuck]].
* TR from [[BHF5]] is the premature lovechild of this and [[The Simpsons (animation)|Ralph Wiggum.]]
* The main character from [http://percyjacksonfanfiction.wikia.com/wiki/Whispers_in_the_Dark Whispers in the Dark], a [[Percy Jackson and The Olympians]] fanfiction [[Spin Offspring|about the daughter of Thalia and Luke]].
* [[Author Avatar]] Art of the [[Mass Effect]] self-insert [[Mass Vexations]]
* Major Raikov in the ''[[Metal Gear Solid]]'' fanfic ''[[Stray]]'' is "always the type who took sanity more as a suggestion," to the extent that Ocelot considers Raikov's [[Psycho Electro]] boyfriend to be the stabilizing influence in the relationship.
* Demykins from the ''[[Kingdom Hearts]]'' fanfic ''[[Those Lacking Spines]]'' behaves in this manner, with a multitude of his lines as [[Shout-Out|shoutouts]] to other media; when he doesn't quote from various works, he ignores the situation altogether.
** Which is also the common fanfiction depiction of regular old Demyx, because [[Sturgeon's Law|90%]] of the people who write fanfiction have absolutely no concept of what makes Demyx Demyx. Or any other character, themselves.
* Farfalla The Butterfly Kitten, a prolific [[Fanfic|Fan-Fic]] author and creator of the [http://www.thyla.com/ All-Ages Kirk/Spock Archive], is clearly one of these. Just look at her ''name''. Also, only a [[Cloudcuckoolander]] could write [http://cosmicduckling.com/spirk/gothique.html This.] Or [https://web.archive.org/web/20210126171601/http://www.cosmicduckling.com/spirk/subcon.html This.]
{{quote|'''Farfalla's note before one [[Fan Fic Header]]:''' I sometimes refer to [[Slash Fic|slashy]] bits in canon as 'sardines', because they're thrown like little rewarding treats to us little loyal dolphin-like fans... but that has nothing to do with this story.}}
 
== Let's Play ==
* [[Raocow]] takes on a persona like this in his [[Let's Play]] entries. See: his ''Kamek's Revenge'' [[Let's Play]], where he declares a fear of circles and refers to a flower that spits items when fed an egg or enemy to be "an altar to our dark flesh god".
** He has weird names for the characters of ''[[Super Mario World (video game)|Super Mario World]]''. He calls Yoshi "stupid horse" even though he is a dinosaur. He calls the [[Super Mario Bros.|Charging Chuck]] "Football Charlie" because they are in football player uniforms.
** To quote Raocow himself: "I'M SO GODDAMN WACKY"
* Marty McSuperfly in [[Captain Garlic]]'s [[Let's Play]] of ''[http://lparchive.org/LetsPlay/IWD2/ Icewind Dale 2.]'' Watch out for him when he gets near the wisdom-enhancing items, or goes by the mushroom fields in the Underdark.
 
== Other Fan Works ==
* '''[[Large Ham|DRACO]] [[No Indoor Voice|MALFOY]]''' in ''[[A Very Potter Musical]]''.
** Snape is an even bigger example, especially in the Potion Master's Corner.
* The fan-made role-play [[Deadly Mistakes]] has Mathew. Given that he's also a [[Talkative Loon]], he provides a lot of comedy.
