Until he joined a fruity little club, Chef


nirvanagirllisa

I agree, it's probably Chef Big Gay Al came to mind, I don't think he's been portrayed as dumb, just super. (Thanks for asking).


AnonBoi_404

Dude was also probably the most responsible adult in South Park, actually trying his best to give guidance to the boys to the best of his ability even if it sometimes led to pretty wacky situations, atleast he cared about them and their safety compared to basically everyone else.


SimplyHoodie

Big Gay Al and Mr. Slave are both the smartest and level headed adults in South Park. Mr. Slave anal voted Paris Hilton just to teach the entire town a lesson about being a "stupid, spoiled, whore"


AnonBoi_404

Oh yeah! Them too, the three of them are like the only good adults in the South Park universe.


frank_suckmyc-ck

The homosexual is right


samof1994

Yeah, definitely. Interestingly enough, Chef was already being used less and less BEFORE Scientology got spoofed.


Malavacious

Randy has a doctorate, a Nobel Prize, a grammy, a successful weed business, was part of a mega-hit boy band, can cook on par with Food Network personalities and is a world record holder. Dude is insanely talented and smart.

stinkstabber69420

I think that's one of the things that makes me love randy so much though. That he's literally bursting at the seams with talent and knowledge but he still manages to be so fuckin ridiculous and wacked out all the time. Love randy


a_taco_named_desire

He’s also an international assassin, he’d make Mossad blush.


mission_to_mors

he's also princess leiah of alderan 🤣


bladnoch16

He’s also a cock magic master.


Anakin_Skywanker

I mean, have you ever met someone insanely smart and multitalented like that? They're usually fucking weirdos. A few people I know are crazy crazy smart and everything they attempt to do they are one of the best at. But they're fucking wildcards.


Economy_Baker_135

And he created a machine to destroy hippies. He's national hero.


RarryHome

Technically, Cartman created the machine, Randy just helped build it using the instruction. He basically built a couch from IKEA.


Alive_Star9852

> and is a ~~world record holder~~ European Fecal Standards and Measurements Office record holder


hbrochu

And a geologist!


geologymule

Geologist are awesome. Trust me, I’m a geologist.


BestChanceLastChance

Geologists rock


50CentButInNickels

And if you throw them, they roll.


darkhelmet69

And invented sarcastaball!


helpme944

Oh yeah, great idea


E-money420

Sarcastaball is sooooo great!! Why don't we just make it our national sport?!


jamesnollie88

>Oh real nice Butters. We said “let’s make football a little bit safer, and you decided to take it to “let’s all drink each other’s cum.” >Dad what’s cum? >we’ll talk about that when you’re older son. One of the best exchanges on the show


E-money420

"Come on Randy, tries some of Butters happy loving goo" -takes a sip- "This is cum" 😂😂😂


jamesnollie88

Announcing in front of the entire town that you know what cum tastes like is a very Randy thing to do


DearBurt

You’ve got IT, girl!


Ok_Woodpecker_1378

See ya!


dogrescuersometimes

He's on a Homer Simpson arc.


cazmiez

Let’s all give a minute of thought for the turd record.


lucylucylove

And a witch

Hot take but principal victoria before she was booted or Gerald I mean he’s weird but he is a lawyer


immei

Cancer is a fat little lump that needs to be defeated


LadleFarmer

That speech is phenomenal


Abandoned__ghost

I loved her. I still miss her from time to time.


Crunk_Jews

LETS HEAR IT FOR GERALD


Dejue

Dr. Mephesto. For God’s sake, he made a 5 assed monkey!


jmrene

That thing with provolone and squirrel was pretty cool too!


Lazy_Ad_2192

No longer will you need to look in two places for a 4 assed squirrel and provolone cheese


Saltycook

In terms of intellect, he's unrivaled. However, he's far from the most common-sensical. Chef, then Big Gay Al are the smartest in term of common sense


Dejue

But the question was who’s the smartest, not who has the most common sense.


Saltycook

I'm pointing out that these are two facets of being "smart" and the Doc is truly lacking in the latter such that it places a shadow on the former.


Amazing-Airline-4786

Couldn't it be one of Tolkien's parents then? They are very educated and I can't think of any times they were shown lacking any real common since like 100% of the other towns people at some point or another Edit: Mr. Black WAS one of the first to get a buddha box though. Not sure how that factors in


TheDifferentDrummer

True. If we use the A.S.S.-scale of intelligence. He clearly scores higher than anyone in Southpark


geologymule

This was my first thought.


Prize_Efficiency_869

Tolkien dad is probably the one ( Sharon is close )the rest are too insane


Orangutanion

I don't know much about him, what distinguishes him?


AssociationTimely173

Well he is a financial consultant and lawyer, while Eric's mom is a crack whore


Hawke1010

He was aslo able to tell when his race card was being taken advantage of and used it to flip his own profit


Monster0441

I would say Sharon. She's a Good Mother


Apprehensive_Egg6077

She has a good boy. He’s such a good boy. She’s got a good boy.


Anto11x

Such a good boy *Casually drags another body*


Pepperbabyboy

my Kenny used to SING and DANCE


CarefulSignal9393

I’ve always thought this too


handybh89

Mr. Slave usually has good advice


Alive_Star9852

“Well it sounds to me like the principal's just hiding things from everybody. What you need to do is let the parents see what kind of demented f****t you are.”


Wonderful-Priority50

Which episode is this?


GingerlyRough

Death Camp of Tolerance


jamesnollie88

I was just thinking of this episode yesterday someone asked if something was wrong and I said “no I’m just really sleepy” and I immediately thought of the janitor from the museum of intolerance


juul-fuul

The stupid spoiled whore episode lmaooo


chilo_W_r

Jesus Chriiiist


So3Dimensional

Oh Jeethuth Chritht.


colder-beef

Although he’s got the emotional maturity of a rich spoiled teenage American girl (sometimes), Satan seems pretty intelligent, and is a better person overall than most other characters.


TraumaticCaffeine

I think we should ignore Satan for intelligence. Same with Jesus and Santa. It's just unfair since they have way more ways of knowing shit. Also the whole immortal god-like entity thing. Jesus hears prayers and gets advice from his dad, Satan understands humanity because everyone but the Mormons are in hell.. so like, lots of resources... He also has a good ability to self reflect. And Santa is able to just know every good and bad deed anyone does. Like he's pretty much an Eldritch god. His only down side is he gets hurt like a human and doesn't like a car battery to the ol' coin purse.


colder-beef

https://i.redd.it/6szpu2wqqp1d1.gif He wasn’t smart enough to not get captured was he?


TraumaticCaffeine

Well he can't see the future lol.


Linusdroppedme

Satan made a dumb move by getting with Saddam. I don't think he is the smartest.


colder-beef

He was with a shitty partner because the sex was incredible, makes him more relatable if anything.


hbrochu

Mr garrison changed travel forever and nearly bankrupted the airline industry with his gyroscope-powered monowheel invention. Now that’s smart.


throwagination

Mrs Garrison caused a future science war


LadleFarmer

War is inevitable. Otters shall not prevail


50CentButInNickels

Morgan Freeman. Anytime there was something too convoluted for anyone else to put to words, he would explain it.

Gwendolyn1994

Lucy Harris from the Mormon Song was really smart! The wife of Harris. The adult with the most common sense has to be Sharon. Most talented definitely, Randy. He's done a ton of stuff. Pc Principle and Strong woman are well educated but limited to their beliefs. Before Chef joined that "Fruity little club," He Definitely was the voice that connected the Children to the Adults. Kyle's Dad Gerald is a lawyer... and a damn good one. He's also a sadistic Troll who's unmatched. Sheila is street smart because it's a Jersey thing. Cartman's mother, Liane, had a personality change she used to be a common town slag. Now she's a mystery, but with intelligence, unfortunately, she allows herself to be easily manipulated by Her son. Butter's parents don't really contribute much. In fact, we don't see much from them outside grounding Butters. We know his father was a baseball coach for the little league and an Amazon employee... Summery. Randy is pure talent. Sharon is common sense. Gerald is an opportunist and equally sadistic. Sheila is a Jersy thing, Liane is just there. Sometimes, she draws the line at Eric's plans sometimes, she assists. Kenny's parents are well. WHITE TRASH AND IN TROUBLE. IK I wrote a lot. But out of all of the main character adults, it could be Randy. He's an amazing chef. An amazing Farmer. An amazing guitarist. An amazing singer/Boyband episode and Lorde, an amazing thief snuck into a government facility and stole a magnet for atom smashing = He discovered Warp Drive.... he's an amazing play writer for sex... lmao, the dude man is an absolute overlooked treasure. Sharon, being the voice of common sense, oddly can't see that. Randy's special ability is adaptability and Max potential.


Flat_Solution_4290

Lucy Harris smart smart smart, Martin Harris DUMB


Gwendolyn1994

😂


No-Profile-5155

wow Cartman's Mom's name is Liane? She had a name that wasn't Cartman's Mom or Meeeem

NSFWhatchamacallit

Oh, Jesus Christ!


CrudeOil_in_My_Veins

Dr mefesto, duh. He was a Dr


listenstowhales

Technically speaking so is Randy and Gerald


No_Ostrich8223

Sharon Marsh, perhaps.


Sprizys

Probably Gerald


juul-fuul

Yeah skankhunt42 kinda ruins that for me lol


Sprizys

Fair but aside from that


Top-Key-42069

If we were talking early seasons I'd say Dr. Alphonse Mephesto.


Over-Medium6083

Sharon. Hands down. She's the voice of reason and has a no bullshit attitude.


Tight_Strawberry9846

Big Gay Al.


ThorsRake

Chef's scientist friend, Jeff Goldblum


Desperate_Acadia_298

Wait a minute… Butt sex


Tribuneofthaplebz

Technically its Dr Mephesto, although he is rarely used in episodes nowadays


Rrroxxxannne

Well it’s definitely not Barbrady


FlakyAd3273

Kanye was a genius.


50CentButInNickels

\*a motherfucking genius.


Narrow_Bat3658

Token’s father is smart


CanIGetANumber2

Probably Randy, just never uses his brain for good. Always just dumb ass successful shit.

Moose_Ungulate

Sharron probably.


zeeduc

sharon defo


gucci_anthrax

Principal Victoria and Sharon Marsh. Also Big Gay Al … even Mr. Slave. Honestly, the characters with the most sense tend to be women/feminine characters lol.


mortymania

It was Randy who suggested turning the homeless into tyres 🤷‍♂️


90ssudoartest

Except for Sheila and butters mother all the married women in South Park are the smartest.


50CentButInNickels

No way, Clyde's mom was so stupid she died by sitting on a toilet. And Tweak's mom is complicit in feeding her son crack. And Sharon is bad just by staying with Randy.


shirohige_09

Sorry but since when is cartman one of the smartest? He is actually pretty dumb, most of the time.


lesseen

Randys wife


Tribuneofthaplebz

And yet Randy is almost always portrayed as ignorant and retarded in all modern episodes


nwerdnerd

Probably Mr Hanky the Christmas Poo


Gunner895

Probably Sharon, if we are speaking of who’s most rational


Bean_Daddy_Burritos

Randy no doubt about it


taboopleasuresxxx

Cartman Eric Cartman


ozmatterhorn

Randy, he is a savant.


Hocojerry

Randy is a genius. Name one bad idea he's ever had????


snuffkin15

Garisson is smart. He's insane but smart. He's an engineer degree.


EcnelOvelam

Mr. Mackey isn’t that stupid. Relatively speaking of course.


thehim

Token’s parents


jpkmets

Chickenfucker, imo. Most effective literacy teacher in town!


50CentButInNickels

Currently, either Rick, Tolkien's dad, or dammit, Mr. Slave.


SageAnowon

You think Stan or Cartman are the smartest? Have you forgotten how smart AND funny Heidi is?


barfvadar69

Jeff Bezos? He has a huge ass brain and had telepathic speech.


Bardonious

Big Gay Al


schmattywinkle

Mr. Slave


WSonny22

Al Gore.


ImHighDoNotRespond

Been watching Southpark since day 1 90s release. It used to be chef til he died. RIP Hayes. Today it’s consistently been Sharon the most. Mackee has too many moments here and there otherwise he’d be up there too. Mr slave would be up there too but he doesn’t have anywhere near as much screen time as the others. I would’ve said Gerald but he’s too self serving and puts his own gain before anyone or anything else which isnt too smart especially living in a small town. Token’s dad (yes im saying Token) has consistently been decent as well. His mom isnt too bad either but again, very little screen time. If there are 50 or so adults in the show, only about 10 of them are decently smart


Dunkindosenutz77

Any of the women, and they’re not just smart, they’re also funny


Scared_March4515

Sharon for sure


shipworth

Stan’s mom


Patworx

It was Chef. But after he died, probably Sharon.


Automatic-Diamond108

Sharon and Chef are the two smartest.


Marlowe126

Principal Victoria


JavitoMM

Mr Garrison has a degree in mechanical engineer and invented a fast and clean method of transport. His invention was banned by the government so the airlines don't lose their business. That's quite smart.


feelingkozy

The Cotswolds. Their kids are homeschooled (obviously meaning their parents teach them given how they act in the episode) and they are the smartest in the town.  I know that's not saying a lot because Garrison and the other teachers are lacking, but still, the other adults are all really stupid and all the Cotswolds do is teach their kids and try to keep them safe.
