Cool Loser TRS cleanup, has been renamed to Unconvincingly Unpopular Character and is a YMMV audience reaction.


* CoolLoser: Nick is good-looking and charming but as Marcus puts it, no one knows him and the people that do, hate him. Its justified since his double life as an agent gives him little to no time to have a social life.

Now a redirect to an index, and should not be used as a trope.


* ADateWithRosiePalms: Nick, after seeing a music video of Amanda wearing a short skirt and fishnet stockings. Also the extent of Marcus' sex life.

* IdiotBall:
** Nick didn't make sure that his targets were killed, as a dying man takes his photo and it led a bunch of thugs to his school. Also, he didn't realize that Boris would look at his shredded homework that had his name on it.
** Also Amanda can have this. As she sees it, Nick is a liar and unreliable. So she tells him an extremely big secret concerning her sister. And then, she ostracizes him, not considering that it might not be a good idea to piss off the guy who knows a secret that wasn't yours to tell to begin with.
