This Troper is alarmed that this page doesn't exist yet. I've spent enough time on InternetRelayChat to know this trope, as well as TroperTales/TheCuckoolanderWasRight.

This troper also experiences moments like this in chat rooms, but there's been several incidents that happened to him in RealLife which fit this trope's bill perfectly. Often overlaps with TheCuckoolanderWasRight and NotNowKiddo.

This troper once sided with...a certain person he really didn't like in a debate, and we would often prop up each others' statements with "the dumbass/moron/son of a bitch/talking monkey has a point".
#36179
This Troper has a tendency to say that when one of 'The Clones' (a pair of twins I'm close friends with) says something...profound.

This happens to me in my literature class when i give a great reason as to why a book sucks or not.

This troper had one a few weeks ago in a game of DnD. We were in a dungeon where we kept getting ambushed whenever we opened a door. After several failed strategies, this trope (known as the the CloudCuckoolander) came up with the idea of using the dead bodies as shields whenever we opened a door. The other party members were stunned at this moment of insight.

This troper playes the role of the dumbass in this all the damn time. It's kinda surprising, since she enters the Cloudcukoolander territory from the wrong side and tends to make philosophy sessions out of completely casual conversations with her classmates and randomly analazing situations, plus, she isn't even a bad student - but people are still genuinely surprised when she raises a valid point at school group works. This trope itself has been used many times over, and I can understand why people would think I'm weird, but 'dumbass'?

This troper was in a writing workshop and had a classmate whose opinions usually triggered someone sighing and explaining that no, that would be deeply out of character/ran counter to the tone of the piece/would require the violation of physics to stage. Then one day the troper was lamenting a plot obstacle she'd encountered in her script, when the irritating classmate said, "Why don't you just change the character's motivation to make him more sympathetic?" The entire room sat briefly stunned at the realisation that that would ''actually work''.

This troper's twin sister (fraternal, obviously) has a tendency to say things like "You work at Harvard?" and "We're part ''x region of India?''" but has come up with a few truly brilliant things and can do math about 4 grades above her level. Except quadratics, she hates those. She somehow manages to be both {{Genius Ditz}} and {{Ditzy Genius}}, don't ask me how that's possible.
