It's not hard to spot this guy (or girl) in an After the End setting: he's the one dancing merrily on the grave of civilization. What his particular beef was with society may vary, but in all cases he's overjoyed to have seen it bite the dust. He's not typically the one responsible for the big boom, though he might want to shake the hand of whoever is given the opportunity. Could possibly be considered a slightly less insane version of Put Them All Out of My Misery. Compare Crazy Survivalist, Loners Are Freaks, Put Them All Out of My Misery, and Conducting the Carnage. Might become the Token Evil Teammate or the Sour Supporter if he decides he has reason to join up with a group of other survivors (highly doubtful, though). See also While Rome Burns, where the survivor may not be enjoying the carnage, but they certainly don't seem to mind it much. |

In the Chaos ending of Shin Megami Tensei IV, Flynn and Lucifer stare at the burning Eastern Kingdom of Mikado; with the Archangels dead and the rest of the Law faction rendered ineffectual, God's attempt to seal Tokyo has failed and demons and survivors will flock out of their cage into the restored world, resulting in a savage world where only the strongest will survive. Given Flynn's status as a Heroic Mime, it's a bit hard to see whether he considers the situation this trope or While Rome Burns. | |

One The Far Side strip shows a two guys in a boat fishing, with mushroom clouds rising in the background. One tells the other: "I'll tell you what this means — no size restrictions and screw the limit!" | |

The Simpsons: Homer Simpson during a Treehouse of Horror episode, when he happens to be in a bomb shelter when Springfield was destroyed by nuclear bombs. One of the first things he did was go to the church, where he danced in his underwear. | |

Internet Historian: When it appears that Habbo will shut down due to Channel 4 News accusing the game of having pedophiles on its servers, causing multi-million investors to back out, the "Pool's Closed" movement decides to raid the game once more and have a laugh as the playerbase drops down. | |

The Twilight Zone (1959): Henry Bemis in the episode "Time Enough at Last". He's a quiet person who would much prefer his books to dealing with live (and annoying) people. After the apocalypse he finally has all the books in the world and nobody to bother him. Until... | |

The Doomguard faction in the Dungeons & Dragons setting Planescape has this as their ideal. The end of everything can not be prevented, and is therefore desirable. Some members might regret the suffering of the people that have died, but everything that is completely destroyed really makes their day. | |

Predicted in The Call of Cthulhu when the Old Ones return and mankind will become as they are: free and wild and beyond good and evil, with laws and morals thrown aside and all men shouting and killing and revelling in joy. | |

Loki (2021): Loki has a great time visiting Pompeii moments before it gets destroyed. Agent Mobius admits it's pretty cool but since he's not such a sociopath, has the grace to not be so gleeful near all the people who are about to die. | |

The player themselves in the Dead Rising franchise which encourages you to play dress-up and revel in amusing deaths of zombies. Several "psychos" also fit the bill. | |

Hollow Knight has Eternal Emilitia, once a member of Hallownest's elite prior to being kicked out for unknown reasons. After the kingdom was basically wiped out by a plague, Emilitia spends her time sitting in her room being smug at how her former peers were infected while she remains safe. | |

In Left 4 Dead and the sequel, we get Francis, who views the zombie apocalypse as "one big barfight" and holds open disdain for everything except vests, and Ellis, who is clearly having a very good time stealing stock cars, running around on roller coasters, and setting off the Midnight Riders pyrotechnics. | |
