Genius Slob | comment |
A character of superlative intelligence and a superlative lack of hygiene. This type of character is seen at pretty much every variation of the alignment spectrum, and is usually associated with the image of the reclusive hacker or obsessive scholar. Usually, their slovenliness is combined with No Social Skills — whether it's a tendency for bluntness or extreme timidness, as well as a tendency for unsavory habits and eccentricity. The character's clothes will typically be unstylish and mismatched as well as rumpled and dirty. Good guy genius slobs are usually portrayed as just being too dedicated to their vocation to have much time for hygiene, while the filth on bad guy genius slobs is used as an outward reflection of inner rottenness. Keep in mind that this is not a genius who is constantly filthy because of his job. A genius engineer who's constantly dirty from working on machines is not a genius slob, he's just dirty because in his line of work it's inevitable. This trope specifically refers to geniuses who are filthy in their personal lives. It's not a consequence, it's a character trait. Not to be confused with Brilliant, but Lazy. May go hand in hand with the monomaniacal focus of The Madness Place. Also often the result of being an Absent-Minded Professor. In extreme cases, overlaps with The Pig-Pen. |

Bojack Horseman: The eponymous character, believe it or not. For a narcissist, whoremonger, and wreck of a celebrity whose parties often leave his house a mess and doesn't even bother that much with any cleaning, BoJack has a surprisingly sharp mind when dealing with intellectual matters (e.g. smart conflict resolution of the Israeli-Palestinian issue in "Hank After Dark"; slightly inaccurate but sound views about the French Revolution and Sartre in "Let's Find Out" and "Fish Out Of Water"). His personal life remains a mess, though. | |

A Dip In The Inkwell: In "Powering Down for the Night", despite it being a rule for Scientists to wash their hands properly and frequently, Oona doesn't wash her hands as often as she should, much to Oscar's discomfort. When she tells him that she hasn't washed her hands since the morning, she misinterprets his uncomfortable reaction as him thinking that she's lying and not that he's disgusted by how infrequently she washes her hands. | |

Beldin from The Belgariad is described as this — Polgara's explanation for this at one stage is "He hates his deformed body, so he ignores it". However, he is likely the most intelligent of Aldur's disciples, all of which are Really 700 Years Old and thus much more intelligent than the average person anyway. | |

He also lives in an apartment that's so messy he's practically had to dig tunnels through the rubbish, never leaves it, and never wears anything but underwear. His excuse is that his only pair of pants blew away when he was drying them, hence his nickname of 'Pantsu'... | |

Jane Eyre: Helen Burns is a brilliant student and very mature for her years but is constantly lectured about her dirty nails and untidy appearance. Miss Scatcherd writes the word SLATTERN (slob) on a piece of cardboard and ties it to Helen's head. This is all very likely to have happened to Charlotte Bronte's sister Maria, on whom Helen is based. | |

In her personal life, however, she is a major slob who lived in a pigsty before Shinji moved in and started cleaning up after her, living on a diet of instant noodles, curry, and a fridge full of beer. | |

GaoGaiGar: Kosuke Entouji could pretty much be the ultimate example of this trope. A very good guy, essential to the 3G's operations as their information analyst, and thoroughly disgusting hygiene. His workspace is a total mess of empty snack bags and magazines(not to mention many fans have suspicions about that box of tissues...), and he'll go for days at a time without taking a bath. Every time he scratches his head, a cloud of dandruff erupts from it. | |

He is the best hope for the protagonist, Ann Flores, primarily by inventing and improving the Grom System, a combat-system that both improves her fighting ability and gives him heaps of data about her body's condition, especially important because her "Entangleitis" can cause her to go berserk and blindly attack people. He's also physically disgusting, incredibly disorganized and messy, unprofessionally dressed with everything from the waist down being camouflage boxer shorts and his bare, roboticized feet from the Mechanika Virus, and he's done things such as eat a clearly moldy burger because he was too lazy to order from someplace else. | |

In Warhammer and Warhammer 40,000, Nurgle is the Chaos god of death, decay, disease, entropy and despair. He, like everything and everyone in his dominion, is an unimaginably disgusting entity that's literally crawling with maggots, parasites and illness. He is, however, an unparalleled genius in the arts of contagion and spends the better half of eternity constantly creating new plagues and diseases within his perpetually rotting mansion. It is even said that Nurgle himself is responsible for the creation of every single disease in existence. | |

Fire Emblem: Three Houses: Manuela, a former opera star, is the Officer's Academy's resident nurse, and well-versed in the ways of both faith magic and swordplay. Her slovenly lifestyle, however, has chased off more than a few potential suitors and is a source of consternation between herself and her colleague Hanneman. Claude is a brilliant tactician with an incredible thirst for knowledge, but his room is a complete mess. There are books and tools for weapons maintenance strewn all over his floor and bed. |

Guys Being Dudes: Arlo is knowledgable about hacking and Pokemon and serves as the head of his organization's R&D department. His room is an absolute disaster area, with his floor usually being covered in stolen Pokeballs and laundry and it's implied by Candela that it may have been years since he washed his sheets. He's seen at the beginning of the story not having changed clothes or showered in weeks. | |

Millennium Series: Plague, Lisbeth's hacker friend in The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, is balding, overweight, smelly and supposedly has a porn collection to baffle minds. He's also a genius with computers (both their construction and programming) and is a master investigator, able to get information for Lisbeth that she has trouble finding (or getting access to). | |

Saiyuki Gaiden: Marshall Tenpou. A brilliant tactician and historical scholar, he deduces the corruption in Heaven's army well before any of the other protagonists. His subordinate General Kenren has to remind him to eat, sleep, and bathe periodically, and also cleans his office for him: Tenpou never puts anything away after reading it, causing his office to become an avalanche of books and scrolls within a month. | |

Sherlock Holmes: Holmes, of all people. Yes, his living room and general appearance to the public is neat and fastidious, but walk past the curtain into his study and you'd be flabbergasted at the enormous clutter of evidence and experiments. Holmes is a slob with respect to his home and belongings, but not in his appearance — in fact, he is said to have a "catlike love of personal cleanliness", likely because he'd not want to contaminate a crime scene. | |
