The jackass character who's a dick to everyone, but people put up with it because they're good at their job (i.e. Dr. House, Cumberbatch!Sherlock).

I hate the trope in fiction in general, but oh god is it so much worse in RP. Characters in those types of series generally put up with this shit because the character saves lives in some fashion. You aren't saving anyone's life by busting into my threads to be obnoxious, bb
