10 Movie Douchebags You Can’t Help But Love

4. Ferris Bueller (Matthew Broderick)

Movie: Ferris Bueller€™s Day Off (1986) Why He€™s a Douche: When I was a student, I used to wonder why the general population had such animosity towards me. Then, when I graduated and was thrust into the cold, dark world of bills and responsibilities, I totally understood as if by magic. Bueller is a cocky little scrotum, who knows what he wants and knows exactly how to manipulate others into getting it. He€™s young, popular and free and he knows it all too well. What€™s not to hate? Why You Love Him: You love him because you can live vicariously through him. He might be a little douche because he€™s so young and arrogant and free, but that€™s also why you can€™t help but like the little shit box so much. Because we all remember a time when we were exactly the same, and by god do we wish we could go back. And isn€™t that at the core of certain people€™s venom toward students? No one likes to watch others be free, while they themselves are imprisoned, by a job they hate, or a marriage they€™re bored with.
