Line 303:
** When Chris in one episode makes an attempt to lose weight, Stewie taunts and mocks him relentlessly. As the episode goes on, Stewie pigs out and eats more and more to taunt Chris with the food he cannot eat. This causes Stewie to gain lots of weight over time and as he gets bigger, he becomes more of a slob (he slams his face into a chocolate cake and eats like a pig), his girth breaks his high chair, and he grows so lazy to the point where his insults are lazily made and he falls asleep in the middle of it before he can finish his ice cream.
* Speaking of Homer, despite what one may initially think, ''[[The Simpsons (animation)|The Simpsons]]'' mostly averts this trope. When 75% of the entire cast is fat - Springfield is the fattest city in America! - the fat people come in all temperaments. Everyone who's fat has their Fat Bastard moments, but it isn't always consistent, especially with the [[Negative Continuity]].
** There are near-consistent straight cases, though, even if the fat and the bastardy aren't directly related. Mayor Quimby's girth could be taken to represent him being one of the "fat cats" (a derogatory term for over-privileged and corrupt politicians). Comic Book Guy is nasty and self-defeatinglydefeating pompous. Fat Tony belongs to an evil profession. Nelson is a big fat bully.
*** Fat Tony [[Karma Houdini Warranty|died of a heart attack]] in the appropriately-named episode "Donnie Fatso"; his thinner, healthier cousin Fit Tony took over as leader of his gang. Sadly, Fit Tony started overeating after taking the job (due to stress over assassination attempts) changing his moniker to "Fit-Fat Tony" until he was just as fat as his cousin.
*** Never, ever forget the episode where Homer selfishly and stupidly became horrendously obese just to be able to work at home and avoid 15 minutes of exercise a week.
**** Slightly inverted in that the most actively evil characters on the show, Mr. Burns and Sideshow Bob, are thin.
