* Master Shake from ''WesternAnimation/AquaTeenHungerForce'' is by ''no'' means a character one should want to be like, given that he's a completely selfish, obnoxious, attention-seeking, heartless jerk with little redeeming qualities.

Natter (has nothing to do with TADC itself)

* ''Manga/The100GirlfriendsWhoReallyReallyReallyReallyReallyLoveYou'': Momoha Bonnouji, high school etehics teacher and hedonist, plays with the trope. Her love of drinking and gambling and her inability to save money to the extent she lives in a tent on school grounds makes it very clear she is ''not'' someone to emulate. To her credit, Momoha is fully aware of this fact and actively discourages anyone from taking after her even in jest, such as when Mimimi was impersonating the family for acting practice. On the other hand, one reason she's the hedonist is she gets frustrated when she makes herself wait for things she wants, and that frustration causes problems for those around her and she hates that; also one reason she's in PerpetualPoverty is she sends extra money to her parents, even as they themselves want her to be more independent and less filial, or on other acts of charity to repay the kindnesses given to her.
* Yoshiko, the title character of ''Manga/AhoGirl'' is an idiot to her very core, and the neighborhood children are quick to pick up on the fact that her "all play, no work" attitude is absolutely not something to emulate.

* Alan Moore's [[Characters/WatchmenRorschach Rorschach]] is a takedown of the AntiHero and the VigilanteMan. Far from being a brilliant master detective like The Question or Franchise/{{Batman}}, Rorschach is just repulsive, disturbing and ineffectual. He's a ruthless psychopath with a moral code that is [[BlackAndWhiteInsanity at once rigid and arbitrary]] and [[PoliticallyIncorrectHero strongly reactionary and offensive views on women and homosexuals]]. He's plain-looking at best (if not downright ugly), and has NoSocialSkills, leaving him hated by the criminals, the police and his fellow superheroes alike. His unshaking belief in the worth of his own principles over those of society's leave him unemployable, living like a hobo, sleeping in the street, eating trash and breaking into his friends' houses to eat cold beans stolen from the fridge. To top it off, Rorschach isn't even that smart or competent at being a detective; he relies largely on his assumptions and hunches while ignoring concrete evidence and more obvious and compelling answers offered by others, so he spends most of the story on a wild goose chase after an imaginary superhero killer and is completely blindsided by the sheer scale of the conspiracy behind Blake's murder.

* ''WesternAnimation/FamilyGuy'': The show often demonstrates the wrongness of a political view the author disagrees with by putting it in the mouth of fat, lazy, idiotic, irresponsible, sociopathic VillainProtagonist [[Characters/FamilyGuyPeterGriffin Peter Griffin]].

* The titular character ''Literature/HaruhiSuzumiya''. With her selfish, callous, petty, manipulative, and borderline sadistic behavior, it is clear people should not look up to her by any means. If she existed in the real world, she would either get expelled from school or sent to prison, if not both.



* ''Manga/SailorMoon'': Played with in regards to Usagi Tsukino. While she is a good person at heart, she is also lazy, whiny, hedonistic, irresponsible, and immature, [[ThisLoserIsYou demonstrating the most flawed aspects of the average person]]. This has been [[LampshadeHanging lampshaded]] on multiple occasions (mostly by [[BeleagueredAssistant Luna]]).

By TRS decision Evil Is Sexy is now a disambiguation page. Moving entries to appropriate tropes when possible.


Making the Anti-Role Model too charismatic can have some problems though, such as DoNotDoThisCoolThing, EvilIsCool, EvilIsSexy, and even DracoInLeatherPants.
