It should be noted that a lot of social stereotypes that are not neccessarily true in real life are commonly associated with fictional bullies: the bully, as a stock evildoer, is typically a DirtyCoward in the face of real danger, always dumb, and comes from an [[FreudianExcuse unhappy and problem ridden family background]]. (Real life will tell you that often the opposite of these is true.)

[[TooDumbToLive Particularly thick]] bullies will often try picking on the (currently) [[ActualPacifist pacifist]] superpowered or extremely strong kid who simply isn't very sociable. This is called {{Bullying A Dragon}}, and it ''always'' ends badly, unless the dragon ends up [[SaveTheVillain saving the bullies]] and thus shutting the bully right up. [[WhosLaughingNow This doesn't always happen]].

* The cyberpunk novel ''{{Otherland}}'' could be interpreted as something of a FantasticAesop about bullying. The antagonists are all bullies of one sort or another; the most developed of whom, CorruptCorporateExecutive Felix Jongleur, describes a upbringing in a BoardingSchoolOfHorrors where he was the victim of the resident GangOfBullies. In revenge, he became a bully himself, meting out vicious summary punishment to anyone who dares offend him. His use of pain to control his subordinates comes full circle when PsychoForHire Dread pulls an EvilerThanThou on him and the Other, his [[AIIsACrapshoot quasi-AI]] computer system, finally snaps under the constant torture and tries to kill him.

The SuperTrope of JerkJock, TheLibby, and other bully characters. This is the {{Schoolyard Bully All Grown Up}} in his heyday. The guy who gave you wedgies and tied you to a flag-pole. The girl who humiliated you in front of the entire school and broke your self-confidence on your first day in. In WesternAnimation, it is required by law for the bully to refer to his victims by last name only, because, well....you're not exactly their friend.
