** Its more than that, [[spoiler: Church could have easily escaped with the rest of the Reds and Caboose, but stayed behind to help Washington, who he seemed to dislike more than anyone because of his freelancer status. Because Church would be destroyed by the EMP, staying behind meant certain death whether or not Wash succeeded. Heroicsacrifice indeed.]]

* Zig Zag from ''SabrinaOnline''. She may be a slut, but she has been shown to be nice when she wants to. [[YourMileageMayVary Time will tell]] on whether the events of Internet/GIFT Arc will have her shifting to pure JerkAss.

** Much less of the heart of gold, but sometimes even the ''HeroicSociopath'' Belkar has this -- sometimes. While he's a ''ChaoticEvil'', arrogant, psychotic and downright vicious little monster, that doesn't mean he lacks moments of kindness. He seems to actually like Elan, seems to genuinely love and care for a cat named Mr. Scruffy, and, as of his most recent appearance, seems to be toning down some of his more psychotic behavior, even if it is currently an act.

* Faye of ''QuestionableContent'' is a [[Tsundere]], but she can be really mean to random strangers just for the hell of it, which she has been [[WhatTheHellHero called out on at least once.]] The heart of gold is apparent around her friends ([[VitriolicBestBuds though this isn't immediately apparent with Dora]]).

* Bob of ''{{Emergency Exit}}'' is surprised to find out other people see him as this: 'jerk' because of his poor social skills and unwillingness to show affection, 'heart of gold' because he genuinely does care for his friends.

* Basically, and to varying degrees, ''all'' of the major male characters in ''OutThere'' (the exceptions being John and Chuck). James is selfish and abrasive, arrogant, constantly borrowing money without paying it back; [[spoiler: he also volunteers at a homeless shelter]]. Clayton is surly, has been known to steal alcohol from his favorite bar, and is constantly seen mooching off of others; [[spoiler: but he refused to take advantage of Miriam when she was drunk]]. Steven and Rod are unrepentant philanderers, but are generally loyal and respectful towards their ex-flame-cum-best-friends (Sherry and Araceli, respectively). Wally is a ''repentant'' (and ''former'') philanderer. Considering the fact the main character, Miriam, has enough flaws to fill a book (while remaining unerringly sympathetic) ''OutThere'' seems to be a world where everyone is a ''little'' bad, but nobody is ''too'' bad (although the near-saintly John is an idiosyncratic exception).

* [[RhettAndLink Rhett McLaughlin]] could qualify as this when he tells [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p0eiJIgVc9s Watch, the true and hilarious story of Link's snowboarding accident.]]

* In one Rhett&Link video, Rhett tells a true story about how Link broke his pelvis. He admits that he could not stop laughing at his BFF, who was clearly in pain. [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p0eiJIgVc9s Watch, and you will see why.]]

*** [[http://raizap.com/sdamned/pages.php?comicID=365 Except when]] [[http://raizap.com/sdamned/pages.php?comicID=366 he does]].

* [[ThatGuyWithTheGlasses The Nostalgia Critic]]. He ridicules old movies and TV shows, shoots characters who get on his nerves, and though enjoyable to watch, definitely isn't a nice guy. When he goes to rip up [[SesameStreet "Follow That Bird"]], he spends most of the review [[{{Squee}} squeeing]] like a FanGirl over all of the characters, finally culminating in this loud declaration:

** Actually, in reality, Doug Walker is nothing like his [[ThatGuyWithTheGlasses character]]. At least [[http://thatguywiththeglasses.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=7522&start=100#p63654 according to his brother]].
