2	--> --'''Corrupt Male Menace'''
3
4	Corrupt Male Menace is a no-longer-so-newish contributor, still pretending to learn the ropes whilst actually reading a comic concealed inside the textbook. He is a small-time {{Evil Genius}} living in that top bit of Britain which [[BritainIsOnlyLondon does not exist according to most works of fiction]].
5
6	The Hair is CMM's constant companion and protector, residing on the top of his scalp for reasons of its own. Some have speculated that the Hair is in fact [[TheManBehindTheMan the true brains of the outfit]], and that before it joined CMM, its previous host was one Stan Laurel...
7
8	When not [[TvTropesWillRuinYourLife ruining his life through troping]], CMM and The Hair have interests in [[CrowningMusicOfAwesome music]], [[ThePowerOfActing drama]], [[GrammarNazi correct use of the English language]], [[TheUndead zontanecrology]], [[BreadEggsMilkSquick world domination]]...

14	----
15	!!This troper demonstrates examples of:
16	* {{Affably Evil}}
17	* AlienHair: There are those who believe that The Hair ''is'' an alien.
18	* AnimeHair: The Hair occasionally spontaneously adopts styles which are downright gravitationally impossible.
19	* {{Asexuality}}
20	* {{A Boy And His X}}: Although if the Hair is in control, that makes it [[InvertedTrope An X And His Boy]]...
21	* BeardOfEvil: Grown to stop him from looking like a [[OlderThanTheyLook fourteen-year-old]]. Now he looks like a ''bearded'' fourteen-year-old.
22	* BerserkButton: [[WantonCrueltyToTheCommonComma misuse of apostrophes]], [[SurroundedByIdiots stupidity]] and [[{{Dracula The Un-dead}} zontanecrological]] [[{{Twilight}} inaccuracy]].
23	* {{Beware The Nice Ones}}: CMM seems to have two settings - 'laugh everything off' and 'kill everyone nearby'. He can jump between them without warning.
24	* BigEater: The Hair is canonically capable of eating ''Hell''.
25	* BlitheSpirit: Pre-CharacterDevelopment, albeit an unusually cynical one.
26	* BrilliantButLazy: He easily identified himself as this and was going to add it to his page ''ages'' ago, but he just couldn't be bothered...
27	* CampStraight: Downplayed. He's a Camp Asexual, but if pushed he'll admit he tends to ''slightly'' prefer females to males.
28	* CanineCompanion: She's called [[EmbarrassingFirstName Lady]].
29	* CaptainMorganPose: Played straight occasionally as he finds it (or variations thereupon) bizarrely comfortable. Played for laughs just as often, or more.
30	* CardCarryingVillain
31	* CargoShip: Several people seem to have developed [[{{Squick}} worrying]] relationships with the Hair.
32	* CelibateEccentricGenius: His asexuality takes care of the first point, his exam results thus far would indicate the last one, and the middle one probably applies just by the fact he put so much effort into making this page.
33	* CosmicHorror: The Hair.
34	* ClusterFBomb: When he's [[OOCIsSeriousBusiness really, really angry]].
35	* DanceBattler: He once weaponised his own inability to dance by ''intentionally'' almost-breaking a girl's arms.
36	* DeadpanSnarker
37	* DidYouJustPunchOutCthulhu: Any time the Hair is cut.
38	* EeriePaleSkinnedBrunette
39	* EnragedByIdiocy
40	* EvilBrit: Naturally has an Edinburgh accent (which probably counts on its own), but affects a refined English lilt when he's in [[CardCarryingVillain card-carrying]] mode.
41	* EvilGenius
42	* EvilIsHammy
43	* EvilLaugh: He has a range of them, all equally creepy.
44	* EvilSoundsDeep
45	* {{For The Evulz}}: His ([[NobleDemon claimed]]) motivation for pretty-much everything.
46	* TheGadfly
47	* GeekPhysique: Severely underweight, despite being a BigEater.
48	* {{Grammar Nazi}}
49	* HairFlip: Necessary to keep it out his eyes when it decides to engulf his head. Earned him the nickname 'Flicky'.
50	* HavingAHeart: His standard response to a sarcastic "So you ''do'' have a heart/brain" is to point out that he does, in a jar on his desk. [[OverusedRunningGag Named Henry]].
51	* {{Incredibly Lame Pun}}: without these, he would never say anything.
52	* IneffectualSympatheticVillain
53	* InsufferableGenius
54	* JerkassFacade: Or possibly JerkWithAHeartOfGold. Or ''possibly'' JerkWithAHeartOfJerk. Either way, it is wildly theorised that he is secretly a humanity-loving romantic way, ''way'' deep down.
55	* KidWithTheLeash: To the Hair. Maybe.
56	* KnightInSourArmour: Following CharacterDevelopment.
57	* LiteralistSnarking
58	--> '''Anyone:''' What's up?
59	--> '''CMM:''' Ceiling. Sky. Infinite glory of space.
60	* LooksLikeCesare: Especially when he's tired or ill. Dark messy hair, very pale, very skinny, sunken dark eyes.
61	* MaddenIntoMisanthropy: Was once described as "not so much a misanthrope as a lapsed philanthropist".
62	* TheMadHatter
63	* MadScientist: He's an environmental chemist. This course was chosen just so he could experiment on things.
64	* MemeticBadass: Is the Hair really as unstoppable as people say? The honest answer is that it's impossible to tell - no-one [[CompletelyMissingThePoint alive in the world today]] has ever tried to stop it.
65	* MemeticHair: Ohhhhhhh boy...
66	* MessyHair: All the time.
67	* MostTropersAreYoungNerds
68	* MouthfulOfPi: Can recite as far as 3.141592653589793238462643383275 off the top of his head.
69	* NerdsAreVirgins: His sexuality makes him a virgin by default. The nerdiness is possibly related somehow.
70	* NiceHat: CMM owns three top hats in varying refined colours, two stetsons (one in black and one in SANTA), a curiously [[TheWoobie woobieish]] broken jester's hat and a ''fez''.
71	* NobleDemon: He's NeutralEvil dangit; don't listen to the slanderers who insist he's ChaoticGood!
72	* NobodyTouchesTheHair: Not out of vanity, you understand. It's a matter of [[DoNotTauntCthulhu personal safety]].
73	* NonActionGuy: Has spectacularly lost every fight he didn't run from...
74	* NonActionSnarker: ...except those of a non-physical nature.
75	* OverlyLongGag: CMM had an OverlyLongGag once, [[MadLibsCatchphrase but it died]]. [[RunningGag Now it's in a jar]]. [[OverusedRunningGag On his desk]]. [[CatchPhrase Named Henry]].
76	* PrecisionFStrike: Prefers not to swear if he can help it. [[BerserkButton Can't always help it]].
77	* ProudToBeAGeek: [[InsistentTerminology Technically]], he isn't. He's Proud to Be an ''[[UpToEleven Ubernerd]]''.
78	* SarcasmFailure: Despite being a self-proclaimed 'Stupidity Point-Outer', he refuses to even try to take on [[DungeonsAndDragons certain]] [[{{Twilight}} subjects]] due to there being ''too much'' SnarkBait involved for him to comprehend.
79	* SesquipedalianLoquaciousness: Suffers from repeated bouts of "prolix logorrhoea".
80	* ShonenHair: Occasionally, the Hair chooses this style.
81	* SignificantAnagram: His real name is an anagram of Corrupt Male Menace.
82	* SissyVillain: He is, by his own admission "suspiciously camp". Being asexual helps.
83	* TheSlacker: Leading to many a SlouchOfVillainy.
84	* TheSnarkKnight: Originally more of a general DeadpanSnarker, but has grown into one of these due to CharacterDevelopment from BlitheSpirit to KnightInSourArmour.
85	* TheSpock: Compared to most of his friends, anyway.
86	--> '''Friend:''' "God, Calum, why are you so... logical?"
87	--> '''CMM:''' "Someone had to balance out people like you?"
88	--> '''Friend:''' "Aye, well, fuck you too."
89	--> '''CMM:''' "Noted."
90	* StupidSexyFlanders: CMM is quite vocal on the subject of how "JohnBarrowman doesn't count". And apparently neither does Creator/MarilynMonroe.
91	* SurroundedByIdiots
92	--> '''CMM:''' ''Why'' must I ''work'' with these amateurs?!?!
93	* {{Take Over The World}}
94	* TheTell: Eats significantly more ([[BigEater which is saying something]]) when stressed. Also his eczema worsens. And he becomes more of a jerk. In addition, he has a tendency to babble to himself when uncomfortable or self-conscious. And he shakes in times of extreme emotion.
95	* TooCleverByHalf
96	* UnstoppableRage: The Hair
97	* VoluntaryShapeshifting: The Hair. Presumably.
