LAST EDITED ON 02-14-12 AT 04:54 PM (EST)I am going to give you two Fife tropes in the futile hopes that you will stop polluting the thread with a character whose greatest ambition would be to jail someone for life on a charge of Not Respecting My Authoritae.
First and foremost:

He's the page image.
Not yet an official trope -- but under discussion for inclusion -- is Barney Fife Syndrome, representing a character who cannot change. No matter how many lessons are thrown in his face, regardless of the object examples he lives among, even if a deity descended from on high for a personal conversation, that character will remain convinced they are eternally in the right and everyone else just has it coming for doubting them. You can rename it Tea Party Syndrome if you like. Barney would have been a charter member.
Don't make me take away your bullet.
