It is not I who am crazy -- it is I who am maaad!
A mad scientist or mad professor is a scientist who is considered insane or eccentric. The mad scientist may be villainous or antagonistic, benign or neutral; may be insane, eccentric, or clumsy; and often work with advanced technology or fail to see potential objections to playing God. Some may have benevolent or good spirited intentions, even if their actions are dangerous or questionable, which can make them accidental villains. In the same relation, some are protagonists or allies thereof, such as Dexter in the animated series Dexter's Laboratory; Professor Calculus in The Adventures of Tintin; Dr. Muto; Professor Farnsworth; Philo in UHF; Dr. Benjamin Jeffcoat; Dr. Emmett "Doc" Brown of Back to the Future or Okabe Rintarou from the anime series Steins; gate. Occasionally, there are self-parodies of mad scientists making fun of this stereotype.
