An exaggerated form of For the Evulz, where a character feels the need to do evil things even at times when such actions are clearly not in their best interests, sometimes to the point where it goes against basic self-preservation. Such characters will betray allies, kill team-mates, threaten or harm people who were previously willing to give them what they wanted, be petty, piss off all the wrong people, attack fellow villains to prove they are more evil, sabotage their leaders, abuse and exploit underlings, throw their weight around at every opportunity, engage in utterly pointless acts of cruelty, reward kindness with cruelty, spurn plans and start fights that they absolutely should not have started, rub salt in the wound even when it would destroy an already-present advantage, and generally be suicidally stupid simply because it's eeeevil.
In short, these characters cannot let go of the Villain Ball, to the point that it's a wonder they haven't caused their own death already, and it comes as no surprise if they eventually do. A useful solution to the question of Hanlon's Razor; instead of debating whether a villain is stupid or evil, they're both at the same time.
This, along with Chaotic Stupid, is also often one of the reasons the forces of evil never manage to destroy the forces of good: it's not particularly evil to work with others, or acquire wealth and power through legal means, and so forth. In particular, this is both a Justified Trope and a serious occupational hazard for demons and other Made of Evil entities - an innate compulsion to spread evil and subhuman intelligence (or even just a human-plausible lack of intelligence, foresight, and/or creativity) are a very dangerous combination.
In video games, this often results from poor implementation of a Karma Meter. These games need to provide the player with the opportunity to be evil, but their evil actions usually can't go too far without either breaking the game's narrative or going over the line into uncomfortable territory. Thus, most "evil" options in games take the form of random Kick the Dog or Video Game Cruelty Potential moments, most of which offer little to no gain (extorting a quest-giver to slightly increase a meager reward) or are even harmful to you (killing off a potential ally). In games where having very low karma provides some kind of benefit, it turns into players aiming to get the lowest as quickly as possible, which invariably leads to this trope in terms of how their character will act.
Compare with Lawful Stupid, Chaotic Stupid, Stupid Neutral, and Stupid Good. Contrast with Pragmatic Villainy, when a villain only does evil things for practical reasons and refrains from doing them when they would be counter-productive, or Poke the Poodle, when a character tries to do bad things but is either too kind or ineffectual. See also the Insufferable Imbecile, who is not always a villain, but whose deliberate ignorance leads to a rejection of the basic rules of decency. Also compare Sanity Has Advantages. A Smug Snake is usually Stupid Evil, although it's not mandatory - sometimes their incompetence and overconfidence isn't closely related to their evil. If an otherwise competent antagonist momentarily becomes Stupid Evil, they've caught a Villain Ball. See also Dick Dastardly Stops to Cheat, where a villain sabotages their own scheme by doing evil when they could've won by playing fair, and Cut Lex Luthor a Check, where a villain uses something for evil when their goal could have been accomplished with it legally. If a character becomes aware of this trope and switches sides, see Moral Pragmatist. For this trope's Good Counterpart, see Good Is Dumb.
Not to be confused with Stupid Crooks, although these tropes can overlap.

Kane kept falling into this pattern of behavior when he was trying to get John Cena to "Embrace the Hate" in the course of their recent feud. Although his long-term plan was to poison relations between Cena and the "Cenation" and then between him and his friends Zack Ryder and Eve Torres (and this plan proved partially successful), Kane just could not restrain himself from attacking and maiming Ryder (or further maiming, since he had already put Ryder in a wheelchair) simply because he could, which only shifted attention away from Cena's ambivalent relationships with his allies and motivated Cena to oppose Kane all the more.

The Incredibles:
Mr. Huph threatens to fire Bob if he stops a mugging, while it was more convenient for the former if the mugging was thwarted, as the company wouldn't have to pay insurance to the victim.
Syndrome is for the most part dangerously cunning and competent, but he repeatedly undercuts himself with his short-sighted ego and his very specific desire to fake being a classic superhero so he can get glory. He categorically refuses to take the easier routes of using his genius inventions to greatly improve general quality of life (he does intend to sell his inventions, but only once he's "old and had [his] fun," and only so that nobody else can stand out through superpowers) or even doing the work to become a real superhero (as seen when Bob calls him out, he doesn't really understand heroism beyond a surface level and thinks being able to win fights is enough), he has to stage a Monster Protection Racket so he can play the kind of superhero he idolized as a child. 
When he's first introduced as Buddy/'Incrediboy', he utterly ruins Bob's takedown of Bomb Voyage and nearly kills himself and makes a train crash because he refused to listen to Bob and Failed a Spot Check about the incredibly obvious bomb that Bomb Voyage attached to his cape.
When he returns in the present as Syndrome, he shows that he really hasn't learned anything about practicality and he loves his dramatic flourishes no matter how often they bite him in the ass; he has Bob completely at his mercy, but snatches defeat from the jaws of victory by throwing Bob far away with a hammy gesture, allowing Bob to escape and learn important information about his ultimate plan. To his credit, he at least realizes he screwed up here and is quite annoyed with himself. And he's still wearing that impractical cape.
He cannot comprehend of loyalty being a two-way street, and can't even fake an apology to Mirage after he lets Mr. Incredible hold her hostage (he instead tries to justify his actions by saying he knew it was a bluff, which unsurprisingly does not mollify her), which leads to Mirage betraying him.
His Monster Protection Racket plan had one glaring flaw: the Omnidroid had to be a threatening enough villain that no one else could defeat it, but at the same time it had to be unable to present a threat to Syndrome himself. He's taken completely by surprise when said uber-powerful robot designed to defeat any opponent is able to recognize him as a threat, understand why, and use the advanced AI he programmed into it to solve the problem. He ends up looking absolutely ridiculous, knocking himself out, and the Incredibles have to save the day.
Finally, a superhero geek like Buddy would surely know of the multiple precedents for capes being a very bad idea...
in Incredibles 2, the Screenslaver clearly takes after Syndrome as a villain who maxed INT and dumped WIS. Their anti-super philosophy is deeply flawed and ultimately serves as an excuse for a Psychopathic Manchild throwing a temper tantrum because they blame superheroes for choices others made. And their idea of trying to stop superheroes from being re-legalized? Stage villainous plots that the heroes foil, giving themselves all the good publicity they need. Of course, Evelyn was planning to use her hypnogoggles to subvert all the superheroes her brother Winston gathered and only failed because she didn't realize that a) Violet, Dash, and Jack-Jack escaped, and b) her brother was a lot more heroic than she'd thought, but she's still doing something that she knows will only make the world worse (she doesn't benefit personally at all, except in getting her aimless revenge) without superheroes and probably won't prevent re-legalization as people can argue that with villains like her around, the world needs superheroes more than ever. And while she did try to save Winston's life, she was still knowingly ruining his life's work, and thus her relationship with him. Most supervillains try to not end up worse off after their evil plans succeed, but not Evelyn.

Danganronpa V3: Killing Harmony: Chapter 3 in each game always contains a double murder, but this is the only one where the second killing was entirely For the Evulz (in the first game, both killings were part of the culprit's complicated plan, and in the second, a witness walked in on the killer with their first victim's body), and it ends up doing the culprit in. Despite having already committed a murder that couldn't be pinned on them (Angie, who walked in on the killer setting up a death trap), they decided to kill someone else (Tenko) because they didn't want to waste the trap they'd set, even though its use was totally unnecessary for graduation. Naturally, the circumstances of Tenko's murder end up providing enough evidence to pin the killer for Angie's as well. Korekiyo also gloats about killing Tenko during the trial because Monokuma's rules mean that only the first victim discovered counts for the trial, and since Angie was discovered first he wouldn't count as the Blackened for Tenko. Problem is, while his classmates hadn't the evidence to prove he killed either Tenko or Angie, they could prove that the same person killed both girls. Admitting to killing Tenko meant Korekiyo indirectly admitted to killing Angie, which gets him executed.

Chester V in Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs 2. Despite having a world-renowned inventing company and having the best scientists in the world working for him, instead of asking Flint Lockwood to build another FLDSDMFR to make his food bars, he sent many of his employees to Swallow Falls Island to retrieve the original machine, all of whom end up getting killed by the mutant food wildlife. Then he betrays Flint after he found the FLDSMDFR, which in turn causes Flint, his friends and the food wildlife to turn against him for wanting to kill them and exploit them for his food bars. His pet orangutan Barb also turned against him after Sam made her realize that Chester doesn't care about her. Lastly he thought he would be saved by his holograms but they didn't; as he tried to make his escape, a cheesespider ate him.

Don John, the "plain-dealing villain" of Much Ado About Nothing. For unknown reasons (sometimes interpreted as resentment over being a legal bastard) he rebelled against his brother Don Pedro before the play and lost. Rather than imprisoning him, Pedro added John to his household and treats him as a guest. John's friend Conrade advises him to accept the circumstances and keep his head down, but John refuses and instead hatches a scheme of vengeance against Pedro and his young protegé Claudio. He temporarily succeeds in scuppering Claudio's wedding and makes a run for it, but his deception is quickly uncovered and the play ends with him being apprehended again.

Minor villain, Jaxon, in Dominic Deegan is in the middle of a chaotic and extremely dangerous wilderness when he decides to stab his boss and go hunting for a monster that completely outclasses him. Later, while wounded, he decides to attack the unscathed main character. He's either classic Stupid Evil or just suicidal.

Bowler hat guy in Meet the Robinsons was Lewis' old roommate Goob, he wants to steal Lewis' credit of inventing his memory scanner despite he doesn't know how it works and how to use it, he does it to get revenge that he lost a baseball game in his childhood, which to his credit it was Lewis' fault for keeping him awake in the night, but it was his own fault he wasted 30 years sobbing for that game that noone cared afterwards, he deluded himself in believing everyone hated him for losing the game which made his potential foster parents reject him and he isolated himself in the orphanage after was closed. Is also stupid as Lewis is the lead inventor of the future, ruining Lewis' scientist career will worsen the lives of many others from not having his inventions to progress society, which came true when he befriended a robot hat that was using him to mass produce other robot hats what will enslave humanity. After Lewis chose not to invent DOR 15, he shown Goob the apocalyptic future he could've made, and despite that Lewis didn't hold it against him, instead he wanted to invite Goob to the Robinson family but Goob left feeling he doesn't deserve a second chance after what he could've caused
In a deleted scene, Lewis brought adult Goob to the game he lost and helped himself win it, making him reflect he didn't had to ruin Lewis' career

8-Bit Theater:
Black Mage, who puts the "sociopath" back into Heroic Comedic Sociopath — and removes the "heroic" for good measure. His apparent solution to every problem is "kill everyone, starting with the people I hate", and it seems the only reason he hasn't put this plan into action is that he doesn't know where to start.
He also has a flowchart.
Kary is also this, considering she blows up her own minions just for fun and to prove that she is evil, which depletes her supply of them. Later, she blames the Light Warriors for killing her minions despite admitting that it was all her fault.
The other Light Warriors can fall into this at points - Thief once sold a fraudulent map to someone they were asking for directions.

RWBY:
Adam Taurus is a powerful warrior, but he's an absolutely awful leader because he can't seem to figure out how to stop being evil in petty, spiteful ways or how to put his cause first. His insistence on putting the White Fang firmly on the 'Terrorist' side of Your Terrorists Are Our Freedom Fighters alienates both moderate Faunus and potential human allies, he's a Bad Boss, and he cannot resist using his power to settle petty grudges (like ordering a hit on Blake's parents because she broke up with him). He pretty much destroys the White Fang within a few months of pulling a coup against the prior leader, the Well-Intentioned Extremist Sienna Khan.
In Volume 8 we have Ironwood, who descended from being an uneasy and sometimes counterproductive ally to the heroes into full-on villainy for the sake of protecting Atlas (and the two keys needed to kickstart the apocalypse) from Salem. However, throughout the Volume, he has made stupid mistake after stupid mistake that eventually causes everyone who followed him to question his orders. For one, when Salem, the very threat to Atlas, had been temporarily taken care of and the problem with Mantle would be resolved without his assistance, his response is to destroy ships piloted to evacuate the people of Mantle then proceed to threaten blowing it up just so he can get his hands on the Staff to make Atlas float... Even though there's no longer a reason to now that Salem is literally on the landmass he's trying to lift. It's justified however, given that Ironwood has been undergoing a severe case of Sanity Slippage as a result of the stress of trying to hold the burden of fighting against Salem alone, combined with his personal failings of being a paranoid Control Freak being exacerbated to extreme degrees by the perceived betrayal of everyone around him.

Intentionally employed in the Paranoia RPG system, where all of the player characters are supposed to be stupid evil and the "plot" is just an excuse to put them all in one room while they try to out-backstab each other. Not only that, but they're all at the mercy of an omnipresent Lawful Stupid NPC, Friend Computer so that they have to try to get away with being Stupid Evil while acting like they're Lawful Stupid.

Claude Frollo The Hunchback of Notre Dame is for the most part a competent if evil man, but then Esmarelda shows up and has the gall to be sexy in his general direction. After this, he becomes more and more obsessed with killing and/or boning her at the expense of his rational behavior, to the point that by the climax, Phoebus is able to rally Parisians against Frollo, previously a Villain with Good Publicity judge, by pointing out that somebody who is currently setting fire to Paris in general and Notre Dame in particular is probably not a good guy. Damaging the gargoyle he was standing on was probably not a smart move either...

Gaston from Beauty and the Beast calls thinking "a dangerous prospect" in one of his songs, and it shows. While he does have a certain cunning when push comes to shove and is dangerously good at whipping up angry mobs, his response to any slight to his ego is to simply push back harder regardless of consequences. Belle doesn't like him? He tries to coerce her into it instead of attempting to find common ground with her or courting any of the village girls who do like him. Belle finds somebody else? Murder the Hypotenuse! "Somebody Else" happens to be magically cursed with a bestial form and a better fighter than him? No problem! He even dies because he can't wait five seconds for the Beast to save him from a Disney Villain Death before attacking.

Furio Tigre, the culprit of the third case of Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Trials and Tribulations (again not a spoiler; he's so obvious as the killer the game doesn't even bother to hide it and shows him poisoning the victim's coffee in the opening cutscene). The guy could've gotten away with killing Glen Elg and framing Maggey just by having his girlfriend and the guy who owed him money say they saw Maggey do it, but no, he just had to pull off an overcomplicated scheme that required him to don several disguises (which both got Phoenix involved and tipped him off that something was wrong, due to Tigre's terrible acting skills) and appear several times in court, which gets him nailed.

In his regular editorial for the Role-Playing Public Radio podcast, Tom Church explained that part of his hatred for the Star Wars RPG is the insistence of players on playing Sith while unable to grasp the concept of quiet, calculating menace that makes them such appealing villains in the first place. "Would you like to go out for some babies later this evening?" "Why yes, that would certainly hit the spot."

The SCP Foundation was known for having this problem in its early days, particularly with regards to D-class personnel—some stories had them treating said personnel as cannon fodder, frequently throwing them into tests on the level of "stick your arm into this woodchipper." One bit of canon went so far as to claim that the Foundation executed all D-class personnel at the end of each month so as to maintain secrecy; apparently under the impression that the world has an inexhaustible supply of death row inmates. Later canon specifically codified a "cold, but not cruel" approach to the Foundation for this reason.

King Haggard in The Last Unicorn caused his own misery and the decay of his kingdom when his greed and apathy made him capture all the unicorns in the world all for himself, without them the world is vulnerable to decay and mortality. As a sign of his own downfall, once Amalthea was brave enough to fight back against the red bull, all the unicorns were free and Haggard died when his castle crumbled with him symbolizing his decrepit mindset and feelings

Hunter: The Parenting: Although still an offstage presence, the Camarilla Regent is a raging incompetent who Embraced an accountant to handle her finances, only to discard him when he told her that she had to pay her employees or they'd starve, and also that all that money moving around would be incredibly suspicious. She's also highly inattentive and went months without renewing her blood-bond with Detective Chapman, letting Big-D sway him to the Hunter's side.

in Incredibles 2, the Screenslaver clearly takes after Syndrome as a villain who maxed INT and dumped WIS. Their anti-super philosophy is deeply flawed and ultimately serves as an excuse for a Psychopathic Manchild throwing a temper tantrum because they blame superheroes for choices others made. And their idea of trying to stop superheroes from being re-legalized? Stage villainous plots that the heroes foil, giving themselves all the good publicity they need. Of course, Evelyn was planning to use her hypnogoggles to subvert all the superheroes her brother Winston gathered and only failed because she didn't realize that a) Violet, Dash, and Jack-Jack escaped, and b) her brother was a lot more heroic than she'd thought, but she's still doing something that she knows will only make the world worse (she doesn't benefit personally at all, except in getting her aimless revenge) without superheroes and probably won't prevent re-legalization as people can argue that with villains like her around, the world needs superheroes more than ever. And while she did try to save Winston's life, she was still knowingly ruining his life's work, and thus her relationship with him. Most supervillains try to not end up worse off after their evil plans succeed, but not Evelyn.

Homestuck:
Jack Noir (the alpha version, anyway) took a hard right into this trope via a Jail Break-like imprisonment sequence, where he keeps foiling his own escape plans with his compulsive need to stab everything in sight. He ends up beaten senseless by a gang of burly Prospitians.
Vriska arguably counts too — she will do everything up to and including prototyping Jack Noir with a Physical God just so that she can influence the story's events in some way.
Caliborn starts as this, but we learn that he took a major level in badass and became the Big Bad Lord English.

The Order of the Stick:
Belkar is a great example because he's not just evil in a stupid way, he's evil because he's stupid. When Vaarsuvius cast a wisdom-boosting spell on him, he swore off evil and needless killing. Then V dismissed the spell and he ran off to kill things. However, he had a vision/hallucination of Lord Shojo which has seemingly convinced him to avoid this; if he's a bit more selective with his carnage and act as if he's playing by everyone else's rules (in his word, "faking Character Development"), he can get people to stop hating him and possibly even get them to do what he wants. Considering the setting (Dungeons & Dragons), Belkar is eerily effective at times compared to more intelligent and less stab-happy people. Belkar may also be smarter than he looks, as shown when he did a pretty effective job of dismantling Miko despite her ridiculous combat proficiency. Of course, then he was just as stupid as you'd expect when he's defeated off-camera and has the holes in his resurrection scheme pointed out. There are some hints, however, that his development may turn out to be genuine, such as seeming to lament that hurting people is all he's good at after insulting Roy out of a breakdown due to Durkon's vampirization.
The trope is discussed between Roy and the High Priest of Hel when Roy calls him out on why he wants to destroy the world:
Later subverted when it turns out he does have a reason. When the world is destroyed, the souls of all the dwarfs in the world will belong to Hel, which will grant her the power to remake the world as she sees fit, with the High Priest presumably having a favored position at her right hand.
Nale. Compulsively boastful of his evil deeds, arrogant, power-hungry, but often doesn't think through the consequences of his actions. He once killed 417 people just to give local law enforcement an obvious clue as to where he was hiding out at (the map of the killings formed an arrow). However, his arrogance came back to bite him, hard, when he plotted and executed the killing of his father's friend Malack, then boasted of it to his father, who then killed Nale and avenged Malack.

Exalted:
Subverted with the Infernals... most of the time, anyway. Even after offering their souls to the Yozi and merging with a demon, most Infernals are at least practical in their quest to turn Creation into a living hell. That being said, Infernals are expected to be paragons of demonic will while they are in Malfeas, and participate in baby-eating contests and the like.
Side note: you can commit super-villain style antics, such as telling the heroes about your magnificent plans, kidnapping maidens (or men), or setting up elaborate death-traps in order to reduce your Limit (and avoid the wrath of your demonic overlords). In other words, the game encourages you to be Stupid Evil, at least some of the time.
The Neverborn's punishments of the Deathlords when they don't perform to their satisfaction, mainly, not destroying all of creation, even if they can destroy most of it. The Neverborn's punishments have proven so brutal that the Deathlords actually hesitate to carry out their plans because they're so afraid of their masters that they won't try any plans unless they are absolutely sure they will work. Granted, the Neverborn were not exactly sane even in life as Primordials, and being dead has unhinged them even more. The fact that they aren't too smart is hardly surprising.

Klonoa: Dream Crusaders:
Tenebrae Hue, the Big Bad Wannabe, has a few moments:
Downplayed and maybe justified when Noctis Sol warns Hue that the latter's ritual will summon an ancient evil. Hue stubbornly dismisses it as "nonsense" and goes through with the procedure anyway. He does try to prepare his minions to fight this evil, but Claire the Ancient turns out to be just as dangerous as Noctis Sol said, and wipes the floor with all of them. It's implied that Hue ignored this warning because he had a personal reason for his evil plans and really didn't want anyone trying to talk him down.
Played straight later on when Hue is stranded in another world with Lolo (and the King of Sorrow, though Hue and Lolo don't know he's there yet). Hue immediately turns his wrath against Lolo, even though she had nothing to do with the portals scattering everyone, and she was the only person around as far as Hue knew. Even Joka, who is usually one of the most incompetent villains, realized it would be wise to cooperate with the heroes he was stranded with.
Claire creates a bunch of portals that scatter the main characters, including Tenebrae Hue, to different locations. But then she realizes that she needs Hue for her own plans, so she is forced to track him down. This shows that while Claire is immensely powerful, she is not very good at forward thinking.

Tempest Shadow from My Little Pony The Movie acted villainous due to her desperation to fix her broken horn, which the Storm King promised he could do. Surprise surprise, the guy was lying and couldn't actually fix her horn better than established Equestrian magic that has, if nothing else, at least dealt with broken unicorn horns before. She also doesn't consider that having her horn fixed would probably be a cold comfort as her actions under the Storm King would've labeled her a terrorist if she didn't about-face and Twilight Sparkle wasn't so forgiving.
The Storm King himself is a very classic villain who wants power for its own sake and doesn't care about the consequences (up to and including killing himself and a good chunk of the continent) and betrays Tempest Shadow for primarily gloating rights. She of course turns on him and he's left without a valuable asset.

Pathfinder paints goblins as manic vermin who usually do themselves in by sheer idiocy halfway through their natural lifespan. With nonexistent attention spans, no grasp of tactics, and no regard for each other's well-being, they tend to deal hefty Friendly Fire before they even reach their targets and abandon each other as soon as something spooks them — a poor strategy to pursue a violent grudge against almost every other species.

Dungeons & Dragons:
Drow elves in most campaign settings are like this. Being forced to live in the Underdark, surrounded by swarms of magic-eye-beam-firing, mind-controlling, acid-spewing, nastiness-causing beasties is bad enough. But they also worship an insane demon and turn their own civilization into a Social Darwinist nightmare, to the point that they expend three-quarters of their energy fighting themselves. It helps that in most settings, the drow are watched over by a Chaotic Evil goddess named Lolth, the Queen of the Spiders; Lolth rules the drow society and demands that they constantly double-cross each other. She is specifically described as "constantly watching for signs of too much cooperation."
That said, the drow can still go too far into Stupid Evil even for Lolth's social Darwinist tastes. The Starlight and Shadows trilogy sees Lolth sending a divine avatar to command them to tone it down for a while, lest the whole drow race completely destroy itself. The Forgotten Realms also has the "Silence of Lolth", where she simply cut off all access between herself and the drow for seven months; by the time Lolth came back, drow society had collapsed into even worse infighting and cult worship, and was on the brink of destruction before Lolth got everything back in order. At least as much order as a society like the drow elves could ever have with their Stupid Evil tendencies.
The Drow are far from alone amidst evil D&D monsters and villains here. In fact, some of the most blatant examples are human (many of the Forgotten Realms's Zhentarim come to mind) — in this case, their individual evilness may be unconsciously or deliberately played up because they have no convenient "monstrous" traits to clearly mark them as Obviously Evil otherwise.
Demons pretty much have this as their hat. While devils (which are not the same thing in D&D cosmology, one is Chaotic Evil, the other is Lawful Evil) are scheming, manipulative bastards who constantly backstab each other and occasionally indulge in pointless cruelty, they are at least capable of working together effectively in an organized legion and hierarchy. Demons, on the other hand, represent the worst aspects of chaos and evil. They exist solely to indulge their darkest vices, which includes Rape, Pillage, and Burn throughout the entire multiverse. To make it worse for them, each and every demon believes itself to be the pinnacle of creation with no equal, and the only thing that makes them work together is a stronger demon. The only reason the legions of hell haven't won their Forever War is that there are infinite demons, whereas devils are short on manpower. Hell probably would have allied with Heaven to finish the demons once and for all, if the angels hadn't recognized that an eternal stalemate between the universe's two mightiest and cruelest factions is the best possible option.
The hill giant god Grolantor basically has this as his characterization. He's incredibly strong and even cunning on a good day, but he's also proud, entitled, and self-destructively stupid, which is why he remains at the lowest level of the Ordning.
Most Game Masters will disallow the Chaotic Evil alignment among players because of this trope. While Lawful Evil is usually interpreted as either having a personal code, Pragmatic Villainy or exploiting the law to their advantage, Chaotic Evil is usually interpreted as indulging in cruel whims and vices. At the best of times, a chaotic evil player might simply kill a monarch and thus land the party in deep shit, while at the worst they might burn down an orphanage for funsies or betray the party and join forces with the Big Bad.

The World of Darkness as a whole seems to always have a Stupid Evil faction for the players to fight against (or join). In Vampire: The Masquerade, we have the Sabbat, who want to rule over humankind openly, ignoring that the Camarilla, their opposing faction, already basically rules the world. In Werewolf: The Apocalypse, we have the Black Spiral Dancers, who would really, really like to help the Wyrm destroy the universe. And finally, for Mage: The Ascension, we have the Nephandi, who want to help Demons/The aforementioned Wyrm/Every other otherworldly abomination destroy the universe basically for the lulz.
Lampshaded in the Mage: The Sorcerers Crusade supplement Infernalism - The Path of Screams: "Here comes my Dark Lord! Booga-Booga-Booga!" "No, you don't - taste my steel!" SPLAT! End of story, right? Not if you do (Infernalists) justice." That passage goes on to describe complex and intelligent motivations and behaviors for Infernalist antagonists.
The New World of Darkness has its share as well, most notably Belial's Brood in Vampire: The Requiem. ...Unless you happen to have their book, which shows them to be more of a Gnostic Religion of Evil that views the chaos they cause as needed for their enlightenment, and quite capable of subtlety and patience if the situation calls for it. In fact, the pneuma (soul-focused) factions are actually all about subtlety and patience — the Nameless are primarily researchers and scholars, while the Mercy Seat regards playing The Corrupter as a holy mission.

Hans's betrayal of Anna in Frozen isn't just cruel; it's unnecessary, given that Anna is frozen solid and about to die anyway. All he needs to do is kiss her, and if it doesn't work, he could just claim that he sincerely believed it was True Love. He could also have convinced her to stay in the room willingly while he pretended to get help, actually letting her freeze to death as he went to kill Elsa. But because he decides to be a dick and refuses to kiss Anna when she needs it, and to gloat about his plans, Anna realizes his true colors and escapesnote  though it should be noted that she doesn’t escape on her own, as she was helped by Olaf, whom Hans presumably didn’t even know existed and proves to be the Spanner in the Works by throwing herself in front of Hans's sword just when he goes to execute Elsa, saving Elsa and exposing Hans's lies, which gets him deported back to the Southern Isles in disgrace for trying to murder the two sisters. Ironically, the sequel has Elsa abdicate and Anna become queen, so the whole scheme was completely useless; Hans could've become King of Arendelle by marriage without any skullduggery at all.

Sunset Shimmer from My Little Pony: Equestria Girls, a unicorn that is exceptionally skilled in magic to the point where she could've probably rivaled Twilight Sparkle at some point, seems to think that staying in a world where her unicorn magic is useless, being the Alpha Bitch of a local high school for a couple of years, and eventually hatching a scheme that involves bringing Twilight Sparkle's Element of Harmony to said world will get her closer to becoming an Alicorn than simply staying in Equestria (with or without Princess Celestia as her teacher) and working on improving her own magic.

Girl Genius gives us Bangladesh Dupree. Her attempts to follow orders inevitably add a lot of "kill people" between the lines. On a more specific note, she has to be beaten unconscious so she stops trying to kill the guy trying to keep the airship they're on from being destroyed. In all fairness, she was dazed, delirious, and barely awake, and he had recently broken her jaw. And he did that because she attacked him when she saw him dragging her unconscious boss through the halls. Bang also (surprise) sees Klaus as some sort of a father figure, so she might have been trying to protect him. In her case, it's sometimes hard to tell motivated violence from unmotivated. She's the girl who complains about orders to not burn any towns and then adds "even if a town really needed burning". Later comics reveal that Bangladesh is smarter than she presents herself, but is also more impulsive and hedonistic, and so her intelligence takes a backseat unless she's forced to get serious.

Scar from The Lion King wanted to become king due to not wanting to live in his brother Mufasa's shadow. But what he absolutely refuses to consider is that being a king isn't just a prize, it's a job - one with real consequences if he doesn't do it right. He eventually manages to kill Mufasa and apparently kill Simba, meaning he got exactly what he wanted. But Scar eventually runs the Pridelands into the ground because of how bad he is as the king, making it a Meaningless Villain Victory. Scar keeps letting the hyenas overhunt because Scar just wanted to satisfy his grudge against Mufasa, and didn't care about the consequences. By the time Simba has grown up, even the hyenas themselves are starting to resent Scar because he's no longer living up to his promises. And when he finally fights Simba in the finale, he nearly kills the young lion but just has to give Simba a Heroic Second Wind by confessing to murdering Mufasa. Eventually, the hyenas eat Scar, having overheard him blaming them for his actions and becoming sick of being used.
Scar's mate Zira The Lion King II: Simba's Pride is clearly cut from the same cloth. She is utterly obsessed with Revenge Before Reason despite Scar's demise being his own fault and Simba not actually killing him in their confrontation. Even when this revenge costs her two of her three cubs (Kovu defecting and Nuka dying in an accident), she still refuses to stop until she herself dies- possibly of suicide.

The most prominent example is Jinjiro Kurita, whose response to the assassination of his father Minoru, the previous Coordinator of the Draconis Combine, was to order his troops to kill every last inhabitant of Kentares IV, to the point that he had his infantry decapitating civilians with their katanas. The Kentares Massacre slowed down their conquest of the Federated Suns, repulsed several other semi-neutral states on moral grounds, destroyed the morale of his troops, revitalized the Fedrats' resolve, which led to them turning the tide of the First Succession War, made the Draconis Combine an ally-less pariah for generations, and single-handedly undid every single achievement of his father, all in the name of his violent thirst for revenge. When his own generals and even a priest begged him to stop the massacre, he instead killed the dissenters himself.

Frank Sahwit, the culprit of the very first case in Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney, has no reason whatsoever to pin the crime on Larry. He had no connection with him or the victim; he simply needed to silence a witness of another crime. However, he testifies that he saw Larry do it and ends up Saying Too Much when cross-examined, revealing him to be the killer. Had he just left and pretended he had nothing to do with the case, no one would've connected him to the crime. (The player knows him to be the killer from the start.)

Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs: the mayor is a typical opportunistic hack that will do anything to have political gain. He at first hated Flint like everyone else for his failed inventions, but the moment his FLDSMFR works, he first claims him as his son figure, then he convinced Flint to use the machine in full capacity despite Flint's warnings that the giant food will crush them. Then he programs the computer to make a worldwide food hurricane and destroys the antenna that will shut it down, then blames Flint for this despite it was him who ordered that much food. His final act as mayor was ditching his citizens and eating his sandwich boat, which he manages to survive due to him becoming so fat that he could now float in water.
Chester V in Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs 2. Despite having a world-renowned inventing company and having the best scientists in the world working for him, instead of asking Flint Lockwood to build another FLDSDMFR to make his food bars, he sent many of his employees to Swallow Falls Island to retrieve the original machine, all of whom end up getting killed by the mutant food wildlife. Then he betrays Flint after he found the FLDSMDFR, which in turn causes Flint, his friends and the food wildlife to turn against him for wanting to kill them and exploit them for his food bars. His pet orangutan Barb also turned against him after Sam made her realize that Chester doesn't care about her. Lastly he thought he would be saved by his holograms but they didn't; as he tried to make his escape, a cheesespider ate him.

Magic: The Gathering:
The Rakdos from the Ravnica bloc are this intentionally. They even draw a great deal of their strength from mindless slaughter, which is also reflected in their representative gameplay mechanic (Hellbent).
The Gruul might also be either this or Chaotic Stupid, depending on who you ask. They have good reason to be pissed, though: Backstory tells that when the guilds were first formed, the Gruul were put in charge of "protecting nature." The problem is that Ravnica, their setting, is a planet-wide city, so between having much of their purpose being co-opted by the other Green-based guilds, or just eliminated by urban planning, they were eventually cast down as a guild. They didn't take it well.
The vampires of Innistrad are extremely hedonistic and short-sighted, willing to wantonly kill humans to the point of near-extinction just to satisfy their bloodthirst. It got bad enough that one of their number, Sorin Markov, created the archangel Avacyn to defend humanity and act as humanity's Big Good solely to prevent the vampires from exhausting their food source. Obviously, the other vampires weren't happy about this, although Sorin maintains the necessity of his actions. Later, in the story of the set Crimson Vow, the vampires stop a ritual meant to solve the impending problem of The Night That Never Ends even though it would risk humanity's extinction.
In New Phyrexia, this seems to be the role of the black mana Phyrexians. Blue, green, and white all seek the creation of a more perfect creature or society, respectively through research, accelerated evolution, or spiritual purity. Red keeps the world running through construction and forging. Black... fights amongst itself over who gets to be in charge of their faction. Anything actually useful they contribute is pretty much just a side effect of their in-fighting.
A certain amount of Surprisingly Realistic Outcome as a result of this; when last we heard of New Phyrexia, Elesh Norn had taken control of both the Black and Red factions as well as her own white Machine Orthodoxy. The Red Phyrexians have been confused by their feelings of empathy and not sure what to do, while the Black Phyrexians were too divided from all their pointless infighting to resist Norn taking command.

Sailor Nothing does a great Lampshade Hanging on Stupid Evil with the Yamiko, as General Cobalt finds out the hard way. Yamiko are The Heartless, made up entirely of repressed negative feelings; thus, they are entirely driven by sadistic impulses and for the most part have no ability to plan beyond 'what hurts people most right now', and can't work together, and the more powerful the Yamiko, the worse it is. The only exceptions are the ones who know they're Stupid Evil and can work around it, or like Cobalt are too focused on getting things done to be distracted.

Chicken Run The moment the pie making machine is repaired, Mrs. Tweedy orders her husband to have all the chickens to be killed and made into pies... which would leave her without any more chickens, and thus no more filling for her pies, and no more business- and out the money she spent on the pie machine and advertisement. There's no indication that she even did anything to get more chickens to keep the pie business going.

Scar's mate Zira The Lion King II: Simba's Pride is clearly cut from the same cloth. She is utterly obsessed with Revenge Before Reason despite Scar's demise being his own fault and Simba not actually killing him in their confrontation. Even when this revenge costs her two of her three cubs (Kovu defecting and Nuka dying in an accident), she still refuses to stop until she herself dies- possibly of suicide.

Warhammer 40,000:
The forces of Chaos (appropriately enough) make some pretty questionable tactical decisions from time to time. There's a reason that the symbol for Chaos is an arrow that points in eight different directions.
They enjoy sacrificing hundreds of their own cultists for purely symbolic reasons (as opposed to sacrificing hundreds of cultists for perfectly practical reasons, like summoning daemons, bigger daemons, and really really big daemons to attack their opponents).
Infighting between various Chaos factions has spelled the ruin of more than one attack on the Imperium. This might be an aversion since it seems that the Big Four doesn't want to win their war with the Imperium. If they win the war, the human population will drop drastically, along with human psychic emanations that form their existence.
Kharn the Betrayernote What a guy! is such a bloodthirsty, frothing Ax-Crazy that even his fellow Ax-Crazies don't want to get anywhere near him. This is because he has a tendency to slaughter friend and foe alike when his blood is up. At one point, when the World Eaters (Kharn's legion of Chaos Space Marines) were attacking an enemy force of Emperor's Children (another Legion of Chaos Space Marines), a blizzard so terrible even the genetically-enhanced and daemonically-powered Super Soldiers couldn't take it descended and forced both sides to retreat into shelter. In a fit of rage, Kharn burned shelters to the ground and proceeded to run around in a psychotic frenzy, slaughtering anyone that came within chainsaw-axe range. Both Legions had to kill their own battle brothers to get inside the shelters and survive, and as a result, they were never again able to take the field as a unified fighting force, and are now reduced to fighting alongside other Chaos warbands as shock troops. This is represented in the tabletop game by Kharn's special rules: if you roll poorly to hit in close combat, where any other character would simply miss, Kharn instead hits someone on his own side. Though he does have a little Justification; Kharn is fanatically dedicated to Khorne, the Blood God, and Khorne cares not from where the blood flows, so long as it flows. Thus, as far as his faith is concerned, he was doing the right thing and all the other world eaters were being cowards.
Diverting shock troops in extremely rare and strong armor, even by Space Marine standards, from a strategically important battle to take out an enemy propaganda station run by a dozen unarmed monks, then annihilating it from orbit while the shock troops are still inside. Chaos commanders seem to have a collective inferiority complex or something.
The Imperium of Man suffers heavily from this; half the time, it seems like it's done to keep them from completely wiping out the Chaos Marines. Acts done by the Inquisition are the worst case; they don't shy away from committing acts of Necessarily Evil but are infamous for doing things like leveling whole planets just because a few people came into contact with alien technology. The Imperial Guard, Depending on the Writer, will be led by incompetent General Rippers that can't think of any tactics beyond throwing human wave tactics at things that will tear them in half, as opposed to, say, shooting them from a distance with their huge tanks.
Dark Eldar love torturing stuff. Technically, they do have a reason, as they do it so that an evil god their ancestors ended up creating won't eat their souls, but let's face it, they just love torturing people for fun (especially when you consider that doing stuff like that created the thing in the first place). So much so, in fact, that their vehicles are designed for swooping in, grabbing prisoners, and zooming off into the sunset at the expense of all else — including armor and crew and passenger protection, though not necessarily firepower. Though the Dark Eldar avert this to a degree. They are backstabbing assholes, yes, but unlike Chaos, they at least understand that turning on each other during a life-or-death battle is absolutely moronic. Of course, once the raid is over, their rivals are fair game again.
Orks are done this way on purpose. They pick a fight with anything they meet, including each other if there's nothing else around. But for them, it's part of their appeal, and the fact that they basically reproduce by dying helps cover for their stupidity. The Orks' inability to stop infighting is actually a justification for why there is a setting at all: If the orks, in all their unfathomable numbers, didn't like killing each other as much as everything else and actually managed to work together long enough, nothing in the universe would be able to stop them. Downplayed in that Orks are not really evil so much as Blood Knights: for them, war and violence are nothing more than fun pastimes. In fact, Orks are just as often Chaotic Stupid as "Stupid Violent".
The Eldar, of all factions, grab the Idiot Ball almost as often as the Imperium. They will lie, mislead, manipulate, and be jerks just to show off their superiority. They will orchestrate deaths of billions of the Imperium soldiers to save a few hundred of their own kin, despite the fact that the Imperium is the only thing protecting the galaxy from being overrun by forces of disorder.

The Skaven of Warhammer Fantasy are very much Stupid Backstabbers. While this serves a useful purpose in ensuring only the strong survive, this isn't saying much since Skaven take the We Have Reserves and Zerg Rush approaches; on the other hand, their tendency to turn every minor engagement into a five-way leadership battle is pretty much the sole reason apart from sheer troop inadequacy that they haven't taken over the entire friggin' world. Seriously, in one of the Gotrek & Felix novels, Thanquol could have won by page 200 if he hadn't been sending the heroes to eliminate his rivals out of fear for his position. In the setting's grand finale, they took on basically everyone else except the other Chaos factions at once and won on almost every front, only failing to win the entire war outright because some of them decided to blow up a moon over one of the continents while a large portion of their warriors were currently standing on it.

Captain Qwark in Ratchet & Clank (2016) has the motivation of being jealous of Ratchet's newfound popularity as a hero. To accomplish this, he decides to betray Ratchet in the process of stopping a planet from being blown up. This is despite the fact that betraying the Galactic Rangers and assisting in the destruction of a planet would be far more damaging to his own career as a hero, and indeed, gets him sent to prison even after his rather hasty Heel–Face Turn. Downplayed overall, though, as he does realize and regret what he did. In the original game, he was merely employed by the villains to begin with, due to being a sponsor and highly paid spokesperson for the Chairman's new planet. While that strategy is still somewhat stupid, it's at least more consistent.

Rourke from Atlantis: The Lost Empire. For the first part of the story, he comes off as a Reasonable Authority Figure for the expedition, until he displays his true side to Milo in Atlantis, revealing that he wants to take the Heart of Atlantis with him so he'll sell it to the highest bidder. Even though being part of the team which discovered friggin' Atlantis would already have made him rich and famous beyond his wildest dreams. Even if all he wanted was money, he had the king at gunpoint and could have just ransacked the vaults and walked away with more priceless treasure than he knew what to do with, without needing to commit genocide (hell, his former comrades end up getting paid in exactly that by the end of the movie). Or, hell, just ask the fabulously-wealthy Whitmore to add a couple of zeros onto his paycheck, which would undoubtedly be a rounding error compared to building the physics-defying, battleship-sized submarine used for the expedition. Too bad Rourke wants more, even at the expense of quite literally everyone else, from his own team right down to the Atlanteans themselves.

He had no connection with him or the victim; he simply needed to silence a witness of another crime. However, he testifies that he saw Larry do it and ends up Saying Too Much when cross-examined, revealing him to be the killer. Had he just left and pretended he had nothing to do with the case, no one would've connected him to the crime. (The player knows him to be the killer from the start.)
Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Justice For All has Richard Wellington, the culprit in the first case (not a spoiler; it's another Reverse Whodunnit). He pretty much went out of his way to give easily disproved excuses, even trying to steal his phone back from Phoenix and not bothering to check it was the right one!
Matt Engarde in the final case of Justice For All is an even worse example. Hiring an assassin to kill off someone is one thing. Filming said assassin as he performs the deed so you can blackmail him, especially considering how good the man is at his job and how much he values honor and trust, puts a big target on your back.
Furio Tigre, the culprit of the third case of Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Trials and Tribulations (again not a spoiler; he's so obvious as the killer the game doesn't even bother to hide it and shows him poisoning the victim's coffee in the opening cutscene). The guy could've gotten away with killing Glen Elg and framing Maggey just by having his girlfriend and the guy who owed him money say they saw Maggey do it, but no, he just had to pull off an overcomplicated scheme that required him to don several disguises (which both got Phoenix involved and tipped him off that something was wrong, due to Tigre's terrible acting skills) and appear several times in court, which gets him nailed.
Florent L'Belle is a financial version; the reason he has money troubles is because he invented multiple cosmetics for his own personal use- and then spent all his money advertising the products he never intended to sell just so he could gloat about having them to more people. He'd be set for life if he sold his beauty products, but he'd also rather commit murder than let "peasants" look as good as him.

In Looking for Group, Richard started out like this. In fact, he's still like this a lot. It helped with him being undead and a powerful sorcerer, not having to suffer any real consequences for his actions — although the other party members certainly did. It's later revealed that his Stupid Evil acts do have a point, though. If he doesn't continually kill innocents, he loses his powers. All of his powers. His undeath (i.e. his immortality, inability to feel pain, and ease of regeneration) and his magic. His insane actions are shown to be a bit of a facade, as he's aware he's doing evil things, but he is doing them in hope for the Greater Good. The crazier he acts, the less responsibility he has to take for his actions, and the less clearly he remembers his old self.
Later in the comics, he mellows out the evil without drawbacks, since he is supposed to save innocents for power now, but the problem is he is still an idiot and he will still do Jerkass acts for fun or if angered. Turns out he is insane, but it's a question of degree.

Doctor Faustus. You made a Deal with the Devil to have magic powers in exchange for taking your soul in a few short years... really, why act surprised? What did you THINK was going to happen? To make matters worse, he repeatedly insists he's beyond redemption despite theologians and an actual angel telling him that's impossible, and even as he's about to be Dragged Off to Hell, all he does is make a speech begging to be given more time to repent, even though he could easily just repent then and there and save himself.

General Mandible in Antz is a social darwinist that claims to care for the colony, but he betrayed the queen, he lied that termites are declaring war against them to get rid of the soldiers that are loyal to her, he fooled the worker ants to make a mega tunnel that supposedly was going to provide food for everyone, but in reality he wanted to drown the worker ants because of being physically thinner than the soldier ants and he thought of them as weak, but he underestimated them as they made a ladder to climb to the surfice, where Mandible's troops saw his true colors, Coronel Cutter betrayed Mandible and helped the workers climb. It was clear Mandible didn't cared for the colony but himself and his control over everyone saying "I am the colony", he then tried to kill Cutter for rebelling but Z saved him and he and Mandible fell in the hive, Z landed in water and Mandible landed in a root. Mandible's plan would fail as the hive didn't fully flooded, even if he was successful in drowning everyone, Bala would've witnessed it and she already hated him from start, she would've told the remaining soldiers of Mandible's treason and ordered to execute him. If he made his genocide on the workers, the colony would've have less manpower to fix the infrastructure and Bala wouldn't be sexually mature yet to be pregnant and replace the dead ants and they'd have to build a new hive somewhere else

The Once-ler in The Lorax (2012) started out as a humble inventor that wanted to sell thneeds to make his family proud and prove himself valuable, but then he became greedy after listening to his mom that he gotta cut all the truffula trees to make the thneeds faster. Instead of breaking his promise of not cutting the trees and making lots of logging machines, he could've hired farmers that would collect the truffula fur to make thneeds and he would've saved more money, got good PR for protecting the environment and he wouldn't have run out of materials to make thneeds. At the end, his mom never genuinely loved him for him and only in how she could exploit his potential to benefit herself
Alossyous O'hare is arguably worse because while the Once-ler did regret destroying the environment and betraying his animal friends, O'hare is actively wanting to make the environment worse so that he can keep profiting from it. When everyone realized how bad the environment is and were singing "Let It Grow", in O'hare's verse he seemed to have a change of heart but then revealed he doesn't care; he literally sang "Let it die", which caused everyone to turn against him.

Ars Magica: Demons lack the Seven Heavenly Virtues completely, which often takes them into this territory — for example, they compulsively betray their allies because, lacking Faith or Charity, the idea of cooperating towards a common goal is completely alien to them and they can't bear to act for another person's benefit. Even powerful demons are relatively flighty and gullible by human standards since they're driven entirely by their worst impulses.

The New World of Darkness has its share as well, most notably Belial's Brood in Vampire: The Requiem. ...Unless you happen to have their book, which shows them to be more of a Gnostic Religion of Evil that views the chaos they cause as needed for their enlightenment, and quite capable of subtlety and patience if the situation calls for it. In fact, the pneuma (soul-focused) factions are actually all about subtlety and patience — the Nameless are primarily researchers and scholars, while the Mercy Seat regards playing The Corrupter as a holy mission.
