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


** Kite Man to a lesser extent. Just like the other iterations of the character he's [[HarmlessVillain seen as a joke]] by pretty much every supervillain and is an ExtremeDoormat who rarely stands up for himself, [[CoolLoser but he doesn't let it get to him much]]. [[spoiler: However ComicBook/PoisonIvy, the only person who ever respected him, winds up cheating on him with Harley and ultimately leaves him for her.]]

* ''WesternAnimation/TheLoudHouse'': Lincoln is frequently on the receiving end of his sisters' antics with sometimes his sisters all ganging up on him simply for being the only boy in the family. The only other characters coming close to experiencing as much misfortune are his friend Clyde and his older siblings [[DumbBlonde Leni]] and [[BigBrotherBully Lori]].

* ''WesternAnimation/DragonTales'': Poor, poor Zak - he may prefer things calm, neat and clean, but he's [[ConjoinedTwins literally]] always stuck with wild and hyperactive Wheezie, which frequently gets him into trouble and results in arguments between the two. He is also the prime target of most of the show's slapstick.

** Homer himself has his moments of {{Butt Monkey}}ing. From his frequent injuries (which reached the point that the ''Behind the Music'' parody stated that Homer became addicted to painkillers due to said injuries), humiliating situations (such as losing his clothing, getting covered in mud, running into other campers which led to him being chased and captured, and being examined by scientists because they thought he was '''Big Foot''') and general bad luck and mistreatment. Granted [[LaserGuidedKarma he often deserves it]]. Many of the couch gags end with him killed, maimed, or humiliated.

He gets tossed aside by Dog while his back is turned, breaking his arm, and is the only mercenary to be injured in this instance. [[spoiler:In a darker turn, at the end of Episode 6, he's grabbed from the mercs' camp by the Kraken, which [[{{Sadist}} viciously]] tosses him around above the ocean before it sends him to a watery grave]].

Most of the episodes Scott Malkinson are featured in involve him suffering one way or another, such as his debut episode, "Elementary School Musical", then there's "Going Native", where he was mentioned to have been beaten up by [[OOCIsSeriousBusiness Butters]], and the Black Friday trilogy, where he and Butters visit George R. R. Martin to ask for his help with the Black Friday sale at the mall, and he just talks about how much Game of Thrones shows off people's wieners constantly, much to their disgust. Poor Scott Malkinson is even starving to death all the while without anything to eat and ease his diabetes.

** Tuck Carbunkle for ''damn'' sure. Where to even ''begin'' with this poor boy? Throughout the whole show, he has been shunned, berated, belittled, mocked, infantilized, humiliated, ignored, and gone through just about every single form of physical pain and discomfort you can imagine — and a good chunk of all of it comes from his own so-called "friends": Brad, Jenny, and Sheldon, who typically see him as little more than an annoying pest. There are very few episodes where he’s not afraid, upset, or distressed about ''something'' at least ''once'', and more often than not, it’s for a good reason. With all the shit he goes through on a regular basis, it truly is a mystery how he manages to remain loyal to the teenage trio for three seasons straight and not completely ''lose'' it at any point.

After all, having to navigate in a different world where several of the animals are trying to kill her will not make getting back home easy.

In season 3, where the Plantars stay with Anne’s parents, Mr. Boonchuy is the one to fill this role, as the Planters mishaps always seem to negatively affect him in some way.

** Nothing goes right for Tommy Cadle. He suffers a ton of abuse through the aliens' misadventures (which he also [[TheScapegoat gets blamed for]]), is bullied by [[JerkJock Clinton]], bossed around by [[SpoiledBrat Melba Manners]], and has to deal with Gabby's [[AbhorrentAdmirer unwanted affections]].
** Dinko frequently takes comedic abuse. In "The Black Eye of Doom" alone, he gets his foot crushed by Melba, hit in the face with Clinton's football, punched by Cap'n Spangley, run over by Granville and repeatedly pecked by a seagull.
** Swanky frequently suffers comedic abuse as a result of the aliens' misadventures. Being a pretentious {{Jerkass}} who freely exploits them for his own gain, his suffering is well-deserved.
** Rarely does an episode go by without Granville [=DeSpray=] suffering at the hands of the aliens, Melba, or Clinton. There are even several episodes where Granville shows up solely to suffer slapstick, such as in "The Boy with Six Legs" where he only appears to slam into the lighthouse door (and promptly complained about how he's "[[BreakingTheFourthWall not even in this episode]]").
