Line 66:
* This trope is largely averted in the ''[[Discworld]]'' books as the wizards are mostly very fat while being very clever (if not wise). On the other hand most of the more dynamic, forward looking wizards tend not to be fat such as Ponder Stibbons and (in a ''very'' different way) Ymper Trymon.
** Sergeant Colon is a straighter example, though he's portrayed more as an average man on the street than a moron.
*** Vetinari [[Invoked Trope|invokes the trope]] when he takes Colon along with him in ''[[Discworld/Jingo|Jingo]].
{{quote|'''Vetinari''': The entire success of this plan depends on you seeming to be a fat idiot!
'''Sgt. Colon''': I'm not too good at acting, sir.
