Pride. It's one of the Seven Deadly Sins. It goeth before a fall. And it's part and parcel of the human condition. Someone is very likely to have pride in their achievements and their discoveries. It's natural. However, sometimes people have pride in things that just aren't appropriate. In some cases, it will be pointed out by someone else that what they're proud of isn't really appropriate (and may be a case of Crosses the Line Twice). Other times it's because what they're proud of is likely detrimental to everyone, including the person who is proud of it. Often played for comedy and a subtrope of Comically Missing the Point. Sister trope to Your Approval Fills Me with Shame, where someone else is proud of the character for the atrocities they committed. See also I'll Take That as a Compliment. Compare Insult Backfire. Occasionally overlaps with Dude, Not Funny!. Compare Card-Carrying Jerkass, when the character in question is not only proud of being unpleasant, but also self-aware of their unpleasantness. No Real Life Examples, Please! Examples |

Wasteful Days of High School Girls: Nozumu "Baka" Tanaka once showed Kanade "Majime" Ninomae a set of her exams with scores that were 10, 11, 12, 13, and a 1, or as Majime noted with astonishment, a numerical representation of a Royal Straight Flush. "Baka" was far more proud of that than she was concerned about the "scorched earth" (as her instructor called them) level of failing grades. | |

Dawn of War: Khornate Berserkers leaving a transport vehicle will sometimes happily claim they murdered the pilot. Gorgutz' henchman grins happily because Gorgutz named a plan after him. Said plan consists of calling Crull a grot, and was duly named Plan: Stupid by Gorgutz. |

Tenchi Muyo!: Mihoshi protests that there must be some way to escape the shadow dimension aboard Kagato's battleship and that as the inventor, Washuu should be able to find it. Washuu boasts that it's because she designed it so that the trap is so perfectly inescapable (even though she herself is trapped within it). Of course, it means they're powerless to aid in the fight against Kagato. | |

Battletech: After the Kentares Massacre during the First Succession War, most of the DCMS units that took part were either demoralized or outright disgusted by what they had been ordered to do. Not so the Second Sword of Light. Ever since the massacre, every Second Sword BattleMech has Kentares V's flag painted on its back. Not as penance, but as a sign of pride that the unit did their duty, no matter what. | |

My Hero Academia: Monoma has a strange obsession with one-upping Class A and will take every chance he gets to mock them. At one point, he manically taunts the other students over how, while multiple people from Class A failed their exams, Class B had only a single failure — Monoma himself. Everyone is confused as to why he's proud of that. | |

Revolutionary Girl Utena: In "The Cowbell of Happiness", Nanami is delivered a cowbell she insists is from fashion designer Sebastian Dior and starts wearing it everywhere, convinced that everyone's stares of perplexity is just envy. Then she starts acting like a cow and things get even weirder. To cap it off, the cowbell was actually ordered by Anthy from the designer "Cowstian Dior" for her pet cow, also named Nanami, and the mailman just got mixed up. | |

One of Ed's golden moments in Ed, Edd n Eddy came in "Cry Ed" when he decided to assist Eddy's Wounded Gazelle Gambit by picking up an entire house and dropping it on him to really sell the injury. When a panicked Edd turns and asks "WHAT IN HEAVEN'S NAME WERE YOU THINKING?!", Ed casually leans against the house with his hand cocked in a self-satisfied manner and says "Absolutely nothing, Double-D!" | |

This is actually a bad thing, as it would trigger The End of the World as We Know It due to a Doomsday Device for mutually assured destruction. And Turgidson is aware of this. | |
