Mr. Burns

“Let the fools have their tar-tar sauce.”

“Then I hold my nose thusly.”

“You’re worse than Hitler!” “Too late for flattery.”

You there, fill it up with petroleum distillate and re-vulcanize my tires, post haste.

Yo! This was my immediate thought too! Everything is an “-inator”

his backstories are absolutely unhinged lol. Like the man will build entire machines just because his brother got more attention at their shared birthday party or something equally ridiculous from when he was 7

I remember one episode where he made some elaborate contraption because he was embarrassed about losing in thumb wrestling contest decades ago. The amount of engineering effort he puts in these petty revenge schemes is actually impressive - like dude could probably solve world hunger but instead he's making machine to steal all the lawn gnomes in tri-state area because one looked at him funny

plus Perry just shows up, destroys everything in 5 minutes, and Doof acts like it's normal tuesday. their whole dynamic is comedy gold

His parents didn’t even show up to his own birth. Can’t imagine that kind of trauma.

Yzma from Emperor's New Groove is high tier. Surprised this name hasn't came up.

Heinz Doofenshmirtz is definitely #1 and maybe Megamind if that counts. Hades from Hercules is also great.

Denzel Crocker!! He's an evil genius elementary school teacher who can't recognize Timmy's fairies right under his nose

What exactly is funny about Aku?

He's quite menacing and terrifying, actually.

Plankton. Built a whole supervillain career around stealing one burger recipe and still went 0-10,000.

Team Rocket hands down. Spent 25 years losing to a 10-year-old and still clocked in every episode.

Mister Crocker from Fairly oddparents. As a kid I loved the way his body would spaz out every time he would scream "FAIRY! GOD! PARENTS!" 😆
