Fat Comic Relief	comment	It seems that whenever there's a gang of lead characters in comedies, children's media, and sitcoms, there's always one person that's fatter than the rest of the cast. Usually male, and they'll almost always be the Butt-Monkey/Chew Toy/Plucky Comic Relief - often, though not always, through their Big Eater and/or Gasshole tendencies. When the Fat Comic Relief is of the Big Eater variety, their comedic scenes often involve food; such as eating all the food meant for everyone else, and/or being Obsessed with Food even in situations where they should instead be focusing on something else at the moment. Gasshole Fat Comic Reliefs tend to be Fat Slobs. If you have both flavors of this trope together, this character is very likely to often be Too Hungry to Be Polite. Keep in mind that just because a character is both fat and a Butt-Monkey, that does not mean they apply for this trope. Butt Monkeys can be played straight or for sympathy, in which case they are not seen as Acceptable Targets, and so do not qualify. Additionally, their status as a Plucky Comic Relief or Butt-Monkey must be related in some way to their fatness. For example, a Butt-Monkey who is picked on because he is fat would qualify (if Played for Laughs), but a Butt-Monkey who is picked on for some unrelated reason (such as for being a nerd) without consideration for their weight would not. Sister Trope to Fat Idiot. This character is often the Fat Best Friend. You'll often find these kids gobbling up the ammo of a Food Fight. If the series takes place in school, expect them to be the most frequent target of The Bully. See also Big Fun.

Fat Comic Relief / int_b4967d43	comment	Big the Cat from Sonic the Hedgehog has been used as a Funny Background Event in some games. Although this has less to do with him being fat and more to do with him being The Scrappy and the developers enjoying trolling people by adding the much-hated character in the background of games.

Fat Comic Relief / int_bb55a676	comment	Legion of Super-Heroes In The 31st Century: Subverted with Bouncing Boy, who is treated as Plucky Comic Relief but rarely is his weight ever used for jokes. Played straight with Lightning Lad in the third issue when he switches powers with Bouncing Boy. Bouncing Boy finds it hilarious that "fathead's fat" and Saturn Girl (who gains Superman's Kryptonian powers and strength) acknowledges her new muscles with "I'm ripped! And so is Lightning Lad's underwear." The issue ends with him unhappily learning he'll be stuck this way longer than the other Legionnaires because the virus which swapped their powers lasts longer on "beings with greater weight and mass."

Fat Comic Relief / int_c511c682	comment	Asterix: Obelix and chief Vitalstatistix certainly fall into this trope. Obelix is dimwitted, naÃ¯ve and often does stupid things because he underestimates his own strength. Vitalstatistix is pompous and a bit brighter than Obelix, though often gets carried away by his big mouth and as a result blunders a lot too. Though it can be argued that at least Obelix, despite his shortcomings, has a certain charm and innocence that made him very popular with readers, both young and old.

Lampshaded in the Duck Dodgers episode "The Mark of Xero", a Zorro parody: When the Sergeant Garcia counterpart correctly works out that Dodgers is the secret identity of El Xero, the Commandante says to Dodgers "Pay no attention to Sergeant Vasquez. He is fat." And then the two of them laugh at an irritated Vasquez for no reason.

The trope itself is inverted within the Griffin family - Lois is the only thin member (except for Stewie), and thus the Only Sane Man (at first, anyway). Out of all of them, Meg gets her Butt-Monkey status the most.

He is the subject of much fun-poking, particularly when he falls into an enchanted sleep and the company has to carry his enormous girth for an extended period. But though Tolkien made Bombur's rotundity the subject of fun, he didn't make Bombur stupid or inept. He is as bold and skilled a warrior as his fellow dwarves. In The Fellowship of the Ring we find out he's gotten even larger and could only move with the help of six younger dwarves.
