A character to compare him to, or more contrast, is Loc Dog from Don't Be a Menace to South Central While Drinking Your Juice in the Hood. According to the stereotypes, he was exactly the perfect example of a young inner-city black man. If Tyrion had become who everyone thought he was, he would have been one of the jesters/players at Geoffrey's wedding. He would have become a bumbling idiot. Though at times, much to his advantage, many characters perceived him as such. Though I do believe his name alone at times won him favor, and saved his life, his own good deeds and effort also led to his successes.

I drink and I know things, overcoming what you are born into.
