When a person is supposed to be really bad at something,but they are so bad at it it's just not realistic at all. The Seinfeld episode "the comeback" has a guy that is supposed to be bad at tennis,but it's so exaggerated that it's as if he's a paraplegic. Also a mad tv sketch with some guy that kept starting fights with people and instead just kind of fell to the ground tapping the guys feet. This trope gets even worse when the actor trying to play bad at the activity actually looks like they could do it somewhat well.

You want Lost And Found, as is mentioned in the pinned threads.

Try Informed Flaw, though.
