Very prone to ItsAllAboutMe. Often a form od DesignatedHero. Contrast to ButtMonkey or CantGetAwayWithNuthin. Both this and the latter tropes usually represent the two opposite ends of ComedicSociopathy.

Perhaps they are loathed so much not just because they are jerks, but because you are also expected to think they are awesome. They certainly come with most of the other traits of Mary Sueness - being completely untouchable in every way. And of course, despite being a jerk, everybody either completely ignores her appalling attitude, or lets her walk all over them, even the ones who would normally peel off her skin and wear it as a coat for that kind of behaviour.
Either way, they're royal pains in the neck and annoying to be around and read about. The male version tends to be less common nowadays (or at least called out more often); as with MartyStu, he's falling victim to men wanting more realistic protagonists.

The basis of this trope is the tendency of many DarkerAndEdgier writers to create a bitter, ill-spirited, confrontational, or downright mean character [[JerkassDissonance and still play them up as an ideal person,]] or just get away with being a bullying {{Jerkass}}. The other characters tolerate the antics (which can range from petty to sociopathic), allowing him/her to walk all over them and talking them up in their conversations with each other. Common synonyms include "strong", "tough", and "rugged" while common topics include how much better they've made their lives through their "{{tough love}}" or whatever FreudianExcuse supposedly justifies their behavior. It's often an unsuccessful or inept attempt to play on JerkassDissonance.

This trope doesn't allow examples at all, making No Rl Examples Pls disclaimers moot.
