Line 266:
** Depending on your point of view, it can be debated whether or not Pinky is the "dumb" one...
** There is an episode early on in the series where the Brain makes Pinky intelligent and, finding out that an intelligent Pinky is actually smarter than him, comes to realize he is the reason they always fail (proved mathematically no less) and reduces his own intelligence. The subversion is that Pinky is still happy, energetic, and full of "Narf" when he is intelligent while the Brain, though he does suddenly find rather silly things funny all of a sudden, retains his unhappy personality (albeit less mean, but that might just be because his usual course of abuse towards Pinky is rooted in witty recriminations).
* ''[[The Grim Adventures of Billy
* Gunter the chimpanzee from the episode of ''[[Futurama]]'' "Mars University". When he wears the bowler hat that Professor Farnsworth invented that makes him super-intelligent, he's a snobbish know-it-all, especially towards Fry. Later, when Gunter's hat gets broken and thus only gives him average intelligence, he finds that he's much happier that way and decides to attend business school, much to [[Big No|Farnsworth's ire]].
** Mars University also parodies this trope with its motto,"knowledge brings fear."
