I've got a character I'm thinking about swapping into a campaign, since I'm not having much fun with my current character, because of how passive I've made them. The new character I have lined up is a Goliath Storm Herald Barbarian. With 7 Int, and 8 Cha.
I've only really played characters with high-ish or average in either, namely Bards, Sorcerers, and a Warlock semi-recently.
I've already been told to keep the vocabulary simple, and have kinda given them a lean towards being over-literal in test runs.

To start, I would point out that the stats you have don't make you a brain dead drooler who attacks anything you see.
Being slightly less intelligent and personable than your companions could manifest in a few ways, but it's also up to you what you want to focus on. In no particular order:
The bottom line is that you can use your stats for humor and intrigue without being a detriment to your party.
I think being overly literal is a great first step towards developing this character.
