Line 11:
This can be [[Truth in Television]]. The term for this kind of people is 'misanthrope', they usually manage to function within society, and can form normal relationships with other humans. Indeed, it's considered an asset for humourists (H.L. Mencken being the prime example).

Line 17:
* Kyoya Hibari from ''[[Katekyo Hitman Reborn]]''. He hates ''everyone'', and treats them ''all'' with contempt. Everyone in series accepts this as just being him. And guess what? He's been consistently voted as [[Draco in Leather Pants|the most beloved character in the series]].
* Hiyori of ''[[Bleach]]''. She hates humans, she hates shinigami, she hates her fellow vizards, she hates hollows, but most of all she hates [[Berserk Button|Aizen]].

Line 64 ⟶ 61:
* Police officer Henry "Roscoe" Rules from Joseph Wambaugh's ''The Choirboys''. It's considered to be his [[Jerkass|one redeeming trait]]. He expresses a wish for a word as ugly as "nigger" that he can apply to ''all'' humanity, and his co-workers eventually come up with "scrotes," which Roscoe gleefully adopts.
* In Stuart M. Kamisnky's Inspector Rostnikov series, the detective Emil Karpo is cold, detached, and a lot like a monk (and somewhat like Mr. Spock). When Rostnikov's wife meets Karpo, she thinks he's cold and distant towards her because she's Jewish. (As in the Monk example below, Karpo isn't misanthropic.)
* Argus Filch in the ''[[Harry Potter]]'' novels, Hogwarts' grouchy caretaker. He hates everyone except his cat, Mrs. Norris; downplayed a little, as he hates Peeves ''much'' more than anyone else.

** (Becomes [[Harsher in Hindsight|greatly less funny]] once you realize that Toby is actually ''not'' exaggerating.)
* Dr Cox from ''[[Scrubs]]''. And Kelso. And the Janitor.
* Oscar the Grouch on ''[[Sesame Street]]'' hates everybody except children (the only people that he can actually act nice to without facing ridicule from other Grouches), and possibly Maria, although he'd never admit it.

Line 141 ⟶ 143:
** [[Demon Lords and Archdevils| Orcus, the Demon Prince of Undead]], a [[Fat Bastard| vile, bloated monster]], bloated on spite and contempt. Despite his title, he hates undead beings, [[Bad Boss| using them without thought or consideration]]. He hates the living too, including his own worshipers; he hates other demons, and he hates himself. He hates everything except gaining personal power and spreading misery, destruction, and death; he wants all of existence to suffer before it is crushed, and he personally wants to be the one who crushes it. Orcus is a being born from the contempt, loathing, and hatred or all sapient beings, manifested when the [[Ancient Evil| Queen of Chaos]] birthed them from the moribund flesh of the primordial obiriths, and yes, Orcus hates them too. The one upside to this is, he doesn’t hate any one group of mortals more than he hates anyone else. Unlike his foe Demogorgon, he has no desire to see clerics of good-aligned gods sacrificed to him in horrific rituals; that would only imply that he hates some mortals more than others. Some of his worshipers have pondered whether it would be different if it were ''a thousand'' of them; maybe ten-thousand? A hundred-thousand? A ''whole species''? If all life on a planet were brutally slaughtered in Orcus’ name, would that please the Prince of Undead? No... He would merely hate that such achievements didn’t happen more often, and despise his would-be servants for their failure to show tenacity in their offerings.
** Arguably anyone with a [[Chaotic Evil]] alignment. [[Chaotic Neutral]] could easily fall into this, too; they'd just be less [[Ax Crazy|active]] about it.
** In ''[[Planescape]]'', the [http://www.mojobob.com/roleplay/monstrousmanual/v/vaporigh.html vaporighu] is a vile and disgusting monster native to Gehenna, who are believed to be manifestations of the plane's foul nature, meaning they are literal embodiments of Hate. They savagely attack anything that moves.

Line 158 ⟶ 161:
* Dr. Lorna from ''[[Sluggy Freelance]]''.
* Mike of the ''[[Walkyverse]]'', various webcomics all taking place in the same fictional canon.
* [[Jerkass|Yuudai]] from ''[[Sakana]]'' [https://web.archive.org/web/20130321230940/http://sakana.smackjeeves.com/comics/1033527/035/ claims] that he's this, but it seems to be [[Subverted Trope|subverted]] since [[Tsundere|he]] [[Pet the Dog|adores]] [[Kindhearted Cat Lover|his cat]] and seems to get along at least a little bit better with Taro than with everyone else, so he makes exceptions for some.
* Davan (and [[Comedic Sociopathy|most of the main cast]], to a degree) from ''[[Something*Positive]]''. When he's accused of being anti-Wiccan, his Wiccan friend Kim defends him thus:
{{quote|I know Davan would never single out a religion. If anything, his disdain is shared by everyone.}}

* Pictured above (and lampooned), the Ku Klux Krayons from ''[[Wonderella]]''; when the heroine points out the diversity in ''their'' group, they turn on each other.

Line 175 ⟶ 180:
* ''[[Zero Punctuation]]'''s Yahtzee styles himself this way as a self described cynic and misanthrope. A female viewer who called him out for apparent misogyny received the reply that she was technically right in that he did hate women, but only because Yahtzee apparently hates people across the board.
* [[SF Debris]].
* Andrew Ti of the "Yo, Is This Racist?" blog [https://web.archive.org/web/20130927112907/http://yoisthisracist.com/post/14473139777/w-c-fields-once-said-i-am-free-of-all-prejudice-i delivered] a magnificent [[Take That]] to people who use this joke.
* [[The Nostalgia Chick]] has admitted to being bigoted against pretty much every nationality, gender and disability.

* Karaba the villainess and title sorceress of ''[[Kirikou and The Sorceress]]''.
* Mandy from ''[[The Grim Adventures of Billy and& Mandy]]''.
* Grouchy Smurf from ''[[The Smurfs]]'' hates almost everything. Although, [[Hidden Heart of Gold|he does like Baby Smurf.]]
* Parodied on ''[[The Simpsons]]'' when Homer offers this trope to Bart as a way to get out of jury duty. The trick is to say that you're "prejudiced against all races."
* Lemongrab of the show ''[[Adventure Time]]'' doesn't like anybody. His sour personality is the result of a failed science experiment that occurred during his creation in a laboratory. Unless you completely avoid him, don't talk to him, don't look at him, and don't come anywhere NEAR him, then you're okay. But if you do so much as ask "Who are you talking to?" when he goes into one of his near-psychotic screaming rants, then he'll send your ass to the dungeon for the rest of your life. Even if you're his MOTHER. He just doesn't care.
* Zigzagged with Rick from ''[[Rick and Morty]]''; he ''does'' hate everybody but he hates his family a ''little'' less and hates himself ''far'' more.
* Similar to Rick is the protagonist of ''[[BoJack Horseman]]'' who hates himself slightly more than he hates everyone else.
* On ''[[Futurama]]'', the alien newscaster Morbo hates humans, calling them "puny", "insignificant", and other insults (which his human co-host Linda oddly doesn't seem to mind), but he also seems to hate robots, other aliens, and pretty much everyone, even his wife. The only friends he seems to have are Richard Nixon and ''maybe'' Linda<ref>"Friend" may be an overstatement, but he does usually address her by name instead of as "pitiful human female".</ref>
* Grouch Smurf on ''[[The Smurfs]]'' hates everybody and everything. [[Hidden Heart of Gold|Except Baby Smurf.]]
