Marvin the Martian

Marvin the Martian is a cartoon character from the Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies series, a small alien in a Roman centurion helmet who speaks in a calm, polite voice while attempting to destroy Earth.

His signature line is You make me very angry delivered without raising his voice.

The character has become shorthand for understated menace or comically ineffective villainy.
