Endless Mike and Pitstain from The Adventures of Pete and Pete.
Classic characters from a very underappreciated show.

Scut Farkus immediately leaped to my mind too. He had yellow eyes, not green teeth though, right? So help me God!

Not that I’m sticking up for John Kreese and the Cobra Kai, but in most karate tournaments, leg sweeps are totally legal (as long as there’s no direct contact to the side of the knee). Especially at the black belt level, the leg sweep is a go-to move.

The follow up “ankle hold and elbow smash to the knee” is decidely less legal.

What about Bluto from the Popeye cartoons. Not only is he a bully, but he’s the poster child of date rape.

My favorites are Melvin Moody from “My Bodyguard” and Buddy Revell from “3 O’Clock High”

Definitely Biff Tannen

Sightings: Anywhere a McFly is found
Motto: “What are ya — chicken?”
Greatest Hits: His innate cowardice and stupidity usually end up making Biff his own worst enemy
“Persuasiveness”: Biff apparently got smarter as he got older, and managed to go back in time and create an altenate future where he made millions betting on sports events with a sports almanac from 2015
Insight: Tom Wilson, the actor who portrayed Tannen in the films, drew on his own experiences as a victim of childhood bullies to make the character more real.
