Just because a character is dumb doesn't mean that they don't know anything, they're completely incompetent at doing something right, they believe everything they see or hear, they're easily impressed with everything, or they can't understand how dangerous something is. Once in a while, this character will bring up their low intelligence and point out that they at least have some common sense.
This is when a character who is established to be dumb or not as smart as their colleague feels that, while they may not be all that bright, even they aren't that stupid. The character has to acknowledge their low intelligence in any shape or form. It is also okay for a character to acknowledge another character for being dumb but not that stupid. Also, the character doesn't necessarily have to be dumb, it could also be a character who just lacks the knowledge for a certain subject but has common sense about it or someone who is naive. This could also apply to someone with a disability, like blindness or a mental disorder as examples, where they point out that their disability does not affect their intelligence or common sense. This can also apply to elders who are viewed as Scatterbrained Senior but can still prove they can still understand what's going on around them.
They may say it in response to an accusation of them doing something really stupid. They may also say it when they see someone do or say something that even they think is dumb. Sometimes they might feel insulted when people would think their intelligence is that low. They might even reveal some Hidden Depths about their intelligence.
This will usually lead to Hypocrisy Nod and Self-Deprecation. Compare Too Dumb to Fool, who is dumb, but not gullible, Smarter Than You Look, for when somebody appears to be dumb but they're not, and Good Is Not Dumb, when someone who is good gets underestimated because of it. The inverse is Who Would Be Stupid Enough?, for when somebody really is that dumb. Murphy's Law (the original one) points out that you can't rely on this, because someone, somewhere is that dumb. See Dumbass Has a Point.
This is often the argument against the Idiot Plot.

Cheers:
Woody may be a goofy kid from the sticks, but every now and then he shows flashes of surprising insight.
Post-Flanderization Rebecca at one point manages to stop Cliff inflicting his inane comedy routine on the bar by suggesting he take it to a stand-up club and inflict it on them instead, the tiniest glimpse of her original intelligence.

In "To the Moon, Baboon" of Donkey Kong Country, the Crystal Coconut goes missing, and Diddy and Cranky think DK put it in a time capsule that is to be sent to the moon since he was the last person watching it and had been trying to think up a contribution. At the end, when they fail to stop the rocket launch and everyone (including the villains) angrily yell at him for doing this, DK explains in confusion that he didn't; his contribution was a song, and he hid the Coconut somewhere safe so he could focus on writing it.

In The Simpsons:
"Kamp Krusty" has Homer note to Bart upon looking at his "all A+'s" report card, "You don't think very highly of me, do you, boy?"
In season 14, "The Dad Who Knew Too Little", when Lisa is framed for a crime she didn't commit and the cops sees her and Homer flees when they arrive to arrest her, Chief Wiggum said something that even his own son, Ralph, knew the answer to:
In season 23 "At Long Last Leave", after the Simpsons were banished from Springfield, Homer and Marge sneak back into Springfield under the disguise of Mr. Burns and Smithers. When Chief Wiggum first spots them, it appears that he fell for it but it's later revealed that he had seen through their disguises and only pretended to be fooled in order to have time to rally the people to arrest Homer and Marge.

Pokémon the Series: Ruby and Sapphire:
The Team Rocket trio never fails to fool Ash and company with their Paper Thin Disguises. But they push their luck too far in "Do I Hear A Ralts?" when they recycle the Kirlia and Gardevoir disguises that were exposed earlier in the same episode. Even the twerps are rather insulted by how poor this ruse is. Naturally, Jessie and Meowth are blasted off by the Ralts they wanted to steal, while James runs afoul of the Ralts' family and follows moments later.
Played with in "A Double Dilemma", Team Rocket use an especially poor disguise to pose as May and Max's family (Jessie and James make a reasonable imitation of Norman and Caroline, but Meowth and Wobbuffet blatantly look nothing like their human kids). The twerps and even Team Rocket themselves lampshade this was pretty shabby even by their standards, though the residents of North Petalberg, to punctuate how especially dumb and bull-headed they are, fall for it hook, line and sinker.

In House of Mouse:
"Super Goof", after eating some contaminated peanuts, Goofy becomes a superhero named "Super Goof". When Clarabelle thinks she figures out who Super Goof is after finding a contaminated peanut shell, she thinks it's Dumbo despite Goofy's superhero costume being just him wearing a red jumpsuit and a blue cape with nothing obscuring his face. Goofy was not amused by this.
"Max's New Car", Max asks Goofy to get him a car but Goofy doesn't think he's responsible enough, but promises he'll think about it. Later, Max get in a car crash and Mickey and Minnie help him hide the wreckage. When Goofy comes in, they try to hide it behind their backs and act like nothing's wrong. Goofy doesn't buy it and tells them that he sees the wrecked car and figured out Max was responsible.

In Attack on Titan, when rescuing Eren while numerous Titans are in the area, Krista insists to Connie that he leaves her behind with Ymir, who claims that her captors will kill her if she doesn't come along with them. Connie doubts the claim and even points out that an idiot like him can see how dangerous their current situation is.

Discworld:
Monstrous Regiment:
Shufti is the least worldly of all the characters, having disguised herself as a boy to look for her fiancé who'd left her pregnant. She's repeatedly shown to be painfully naive, like believing the guy had been mislaid when she'd given him a sixpence to split in half, or missing the Double Entendre of a Bawdy Song. However, she does get a moment once the squad is captured and accused of being soldiers disguised as women by hiking up her skirt and flashing the officer. Polly then asks the officer with icy politeness if he needs the rest of the squad to strip down as well, and they're quickly left alone out of sheer embarrassment.
Carborundum (or rather, Jade) makes some very good points about warfare (particularly the total war that Borogravia has managed to get itself into), adding that trolls "may be slow but we ain't stoopid."
Lords and Ladies also has a one-off gag about a troll guarding a bridge on the border with Lancre, who is noted to be immediately, instinctively suspicious any time someone leads a billygoat across.

In Castlevania (2017) season 2, one of Dracula's vampire generals is a boisterous Viking vampire named Godbrand. This general is a brute who, to quote another general, has "never met anything [Godbrand] didn't instantly kill, fuck, or make a boat out of." Godbrand's only complaint is he finds the comment confusing as he is a Viking. He likes making boats out of things. He wonders why it is prudent to send forces to watch the Belmont estate when word reaches them one might be alive. A reminder is given that the Belmonts have hunted vampires for "fucking centuries" and have amassed God knows how much information on the vampires and Dracula. If one is alive, he could prove a nasty thorn in their plans. And Godbrand still has a hard time understanding these facts. Dracula himself accuses Godbrand of being more bark than bite. That said, Godbrand is the only vampire general who directly questions where the vampires would get food if Dracula succeeds in killing all of humanity. He also realizes Dracula hasn't been feeding for a while and isn't as strong as he used to be, having lost himself and his will to live with the death of his human wife. Even sensing this weakness, Godbrand refuses to directly challenge Dracula in combat because he knows, weakened or not, he wouldn't survive the fight.

Mr. Cat tells Stumpy that the problem will be solved if they give him some yogurt, and Stumpy gets Quack-Quack's yogurt from the place Kaeloo hid it. Due to Quack-Quack now being an insane cannibal, Mr. Cat says Stumpy should be the one to give it to him, but Stumpy refuses because "I may be nuts, but I'm not crazy!"

In the My Life as a Teenage Robot episode "Killgore", a tiny robot by the title's name intends to become a huge supervillain by capturing Jenny and handing her over to the Cluster. Unfortunately, he's a 1-foot toy fueled by a wind-up key. Naturally, for all his loud talk, he isn't able to take Jenny by force. But he never gives up, to the point where Jenny and her friends hatch a plan to get him to go away. Jenny promises to surrender herself to the Cluster, who are actually her friends Brad and Tuck in Paper-Thin Disguise. Too bad for her, her plan backfires spectacularly when the real Cluster show up as Killgore contacted them in advance. For a wind-up toy with absurd goals, he's pretty sharp.

In Ed, Edd n Eddy season 4 episode, "Here's Mud in Your Ed", after Eddy realizes that Rolf and Jimmy scammed him with a fake money tree seed and bangs on Rolf's front door demanding he get his stuff back, Rolf offers that he will give Eddy the "real" money tree seed if he stops. Edd tells Rolf that Eddy, as blinded by greed as he can be, wouldn't fall for the same trick twice, only to be proven wrong when Eddy immediately agrees to it. He fails to notice that the "real" money tree seed he's now eagerly planting is just an old metal bolt. The episode ends with Ed of all characters smugly commenting that even he isn't that gullible as he and Edd look on.

Cabin Pressure:
One episode has Martin and Douglas quizzing Arthur on the phonetic alphabet to pass time on a long flight, and Arthur is terrible at it, often requiring them to drop hints or just outright tell him the answer (for "b" he gets stuck on "bag"). So they're quite surprised when he gets one correct on the first try.
In "Timbuktu", Carolyn explains that Birling Day (in which they fly Mr. Birling to the big rugby match and he gives them a massive tip) won't be happening, because the match is not only in England this year, but closer to Mr. Birling's house than the airport, and not even he has that much more money than sense.

In Dragon Age II, Fenris had a hard time understanding that Emile De Launcet is dumb enough to tell everyone he's a Blood Mage... in a city full of templars. Even Meredith realized that his stupidity was genuine.

Shufti is the least worldly of all the characters, having disguised herself as a boy to look for her fiancé who'd left her pregnant. She's repeatedly shown to be painfully naive, like believing the guy had been mislaid when she'd given him a sixpence to split in half, or missing the Double Entendre of a Bawdy Song. However, she does get a moment once the squad is captured and accused of being soldiers disguised as women by hiking up her skirt and flashing the officer. Polly then asks the officer with icy politeness if he needs the rest of the squad to strip down as well, and they're quickly left alone out of sheer embarrassment.

Artemis Fowl: Opal Koboi has her none-too-bright henchmen the Brill brothers convinced to the point of paranoia that she can read minds, simply by turning on them at random and shrieking "I heard that!". Mervall Brill at one point tests her by thinking treasonous thoughts at her as loudly as possible.
