"For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled." - Richard Feynman

If someone wants to write this example to be in example format, go ahead. Removed until then:

• Okay, let's take me as the prime example in the comics session, okay? It's pretty much common knowledge that I'm insane. I talk to the voices in my head, they talk back to me, I tell them to shut the fudge up or I'll blast them out with a shotgun, and so on and so forth. I pretty much have one foot in cloudcuckooland; one foot in the loony bin; one hand's worth of fingers in either the X-Men or the international mutant association, depending on who wants me most at the moment; and one foot making brutalizing contact with Captain America's cojones in Deadpool #25, you should totally pick it up on eBay. I'm also one of very few Marvel Universe characters who knows that we live in a comic; that there is a man with a typewriter, and all the hardships that we're put through is just a part of his sick imagination; and that I think in little yellow boxes.

Some 75% of the examples I've read are irrelevant. The trope isn't about the hero being a little weird. It's about a minor character. The Doctor is not an example. Even Jim Ignatowski is probably not an example.
