(Deleted Scaramucci - he's not an example of the trope at all.)
Line 175:
* Stanley in ''[[The Amazing Chan and The Chan Clan]]'' fits this trope to a T.
* Pinkie Pie from ''[[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic]]'' can't get any pluckier than this.
 
== Real Life ==
* Anthony Scaramucci, the second Press Secretary to former President [[Donald Trump]]. Alternated between [[Brooklyn Rage]] and effusive [[Big Brother Worship]]. Goes by [[Spell My Name with a "The"|"The Mooch"]], though his name also brings to mind [[Commedia Dell'Arte]] character Scaramouch (yes, the one from [[Bohemian Rhapsody]]) a.k.a. Scaramuccia.
** As an example of the comic relief part, on his sixth day on the job, he called a reporter and demanded for her source on the record, then promised to fire everyone in the department if she didn't reveal the leak's source, then said he knew it was Chief of Staff Reince Priebus, while wrapping up that he wasn't going to "suck his own cock like [Steve] Bannon." All on the record. The incident that leaked which was "a threat to the American country"? The fact that he, the president, and Sean Hannity had dinner together.
