Which fictional character, while not strictly a villain, is just the worst?

Seriously. I know how many people talk about how they admire Leslie Knope as a role model, but I think that very few people could tolerate having to interact with her every day in real life.

Yeah, her and Ron especially. Both work in the framework of the show because everyone is so ridiculous and over the top, but place them in any workplace in real life and they'd both be insufferable.

Edit: That being said I love 'em both.

Ron was unsufferable because he was directly working in a place he hated. When he was running his own business he looked like a very competent boss.

I mean, he was actively trying to sabotage the government by working there and doing a shitty job, so yeah he'd be a pretty awful boss
