Ummmm...I don't see the trope. The trope is about someone idealistic turning cynical because circumstance hates him. He just looks grumpy.

And it's not even potholed to a works page either, so those who have no idea of identity and context have absolutely no way to find out, save a Google image search, and who's gonna bother?

Pull.

Well, it's from Hey Arnold.

But yeah, clear case of Fan Myopia. Still should be pulled.

Not seeing the trope here, really. And with me it's 7 votes, so it's gone:

Needs a before and after. Eugene would work, but we need a picture of who he normally is.

'Never meet your heroes' makes me think of the scene in The Incredibles wherein Buddy tears down his hero gallery... maybe that would work?
