A derogatory term coined to describe a certain type of poorly-written self-insert character in fanfiction, who warped canon characters' personalities and were jarringly out of place in the works in which they were placed. In more recent years, Mary Sues have ceased to exist beyond parody and adolescent fanfiction, but the term has been incorrectly used to label any (female) character who may share similar qualities (1) as these previous self-insert characters.
(1) Including, among other things, good looks, a tragic backstory, the romantic interest of other characters, unique abilities, and/or a wide array of talents.

Correct use:
"'Gee, golly, gosh, gloriosky,' thought Mary Sue as she stepped on the bridge of the Enterprise. 'Here I am, the youngest lieutenant in the fleet—only fifteen and a half years old.' Captain Kirk came up to her. 'Oh, Lieutenant, I love you madly. Will you come to bed with me?'" (From "A Trekkie's Tale", by Paula Smith)
Incorrect use:
"Wonder Woman is so overpowered--she's clearly a Mary Sue!"

Marie Antoinette was the Queen of France during the French Revolution. Marie Antoinette has gone down in history as the arrogant and apathetic monarch who said "let them eat cake" when told the peasants were starving because they had no bread. The daughter of Francis I and Maria Theresa, Emperor and Empress of the Holy Roman Empire, Marie left Austria for France in 1770 to marry the prince of France. As the revolution swept Paris in 1789, Louis and Marie tried to flee but failed. Marie and Louis XVI were stuck as prisoners at the palace at Tuileries. They tried to get help from royal supporters in England, Prussia and Austria, but in 1792 they were arrested and charged with treason. Louis was beheaded 21 January 1793 and Marie was beheaded 16 October 1793. According to legend, Marie's last words were an apology to the executioner for accidently stepping on his foot.

1. A classic cocktail made from vodka, tomato juice, salt, pepper, a celery stick and other spices. I'm told that I make the best in London which is annoying because I don't like them. Waste of vodka if you ask me.
2. The name we give to my insane grandmother. She doesn't mind...

I'm in love with Mary Jane.
She's my main thing.
She makes me feel alright.
She makes my heart sing.
