* HateSink: The iteration featured in Season 6 are intolerant, arrogant, nasty and disrespectful bullies who only care about winning. Their lead singer Clint takes the cake.
--> '''Clint''': I don't want to be decent or liked. I want to be a champion, and this is how it's done. The fact is Vocal Adrenaline is the last of a great dying breed of communities that is willing to risk being called bad guys and accept the hard truth, which is that every person on the planet knows winning is EVERYTHING!

trope is about colorism IU


* ButNotTooBlack: Leroy, but justified. It's long been established that Rachel's parents are a mixed couple and that none of them know which is her biological father, so it makes sense for her black dad to be light-skinned.

Trope cut per TRS.

* BarbaricBully: The basis (and sole function) of his character.
* DumbJock: Ignorant, stupid, a worthless student, and proud of it. He gleefully abuses the passes given to jocks and forces people to do his homework.



* FlatCharacter: Only there to be a one-note, violent, and despicable nuisance, making everyone's life hell.
* FutureLoser: If anyone in the show is destined to be a no-life "Lima Loser" it's him. And let's face it, he deserves nothing nice.



* SatelliteCharacter: To Karofsky, prior to CharacterDevelopment.

* PopularIsDumb: Dumb as a sack of bricks and popular nonetheless, this guy is a living advertisement for the sheer imbecility of the PopularityFoodChain.
* PopularIsEvil: At the top of the PopularityFoodChain by virtue of being a jock, despite being a loathsome piece of work only liked by similarly-minded Jerk Jocks.
* SatelliteCharacter: To Karofsky, prior to his CharacterDevelopment.

* GuiltByCoincidence: Being named Jacob makes him a target for the school's [[Literature/{{Twilight}} Twihards]].
* HatedByAll: No one likes him, '''No One'''! Barely tolerating him at best. And for a very good reason.

* {{Hypocrite}}: This guy has the nerve to demean people and to tell them they suck, without any worthwhile accomplishments to his name.
* ImmoralJournalist: One in the making, with all the flaws coming with the package without even working for one. The only papers willing to hire him would be trashy tabloids, and he would thrive in it.



* NerdyBully: A nerd through and through who relishes in cyber-bullying people.



* SlimeBall: No redeeming trait whatsoever, he stalks people for "scoops" (i.e. petty, intrusive gossip), sexually harasses Rachel to restraining order levels, and does nothing that's not self-serving.

* SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute: SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute:
** Seriously, being another flamboyant gay boy with very similar tastes in clothing and music, sharing his knack for singing songs by female performers, he might as well have "Kurt 2.0" branded on his forehead.
