Trope Talk: Crouching Moron, Hidden Badass

Everyone say hello to my favorite character archetype, which just narrowly edges out my second favorite, "crazy-prepared deadpan stoic badass with 37 knives hidden on their person at all times". The CMHB is an impossibly versatile writing tool wrapped up in a goofy, charming exterior, and I'd like to tell you all about its many literary uses today!

Who's your favorite CMHB, and what's your favorite scene with them? Gush about it in the comments!
