336-427: A loose cannon". Mike Judge once said in an interview that Beavis "is a zero" when it comes to intelligence; indeed, Beavis is often oblivious to what should be obvious. Generally subordinate to Butt-Head and willing to tolerate a large amount of physical and verbal abuse, Beavis nonetheless has limits. In " Murder Site ", Beavis was driven to attack and nearly kill Butt-Head, who ceaselessly called him "Butt-Knocker",

392-497: A mutual hatred for Buzzcut like Beavis, Butt-head also has shown a little respect for him unlike for Van Driessen. Principal McVicker has no idea what to do with them, as virtually every attempt he makes to instill discipline in them fails miserably.

672-580: A stream of gibberish and strange noises, with his eyes wide. Cornholio is a normally dormant persona (apparently, the name is derived from the word cornhole ). Cornholio tends to wander aimlessly while reciting "I am the Great Cornholio! I need TP for my bunghole !" in an odd faux-Spanish accent. Whenever someone asks him a question or challenges him in a threatening or negative manner, Cornholio will respond with "Are you threatening me?!" Sometimes Beavis will momentarily talk normally before resuming

728-431: A term which Beavis resents. Beavis also stood up to Butt-Head while they were watching the video for Rancid 's "Nihilism": Butt-Head kept talking about it derisively, prompting Beavis to tell Butt-Head to shut up.

784-480: A victim of Butt-Head's abuse, Beavis may prefer it to other options. For instance, in "Nice Butt-Head," in which Butt-Head takes pills to curb his aggression and is shown to be kind and considerate, Beavis quickly tries to find a way to turn him back into his normal self. In "Choke", he specifically states that Butt-Head is "not really my friend," and in "Beavis and Butt-Head Do the Universe," Butt-Head says that Beavis

The movie Beavis and Butt-Head Do America gives

896-496: A whore, Beavis nonchalantly says "She's not a whore, she's a slut, she doesn't charge for it"). The irony, however, is lost on Butt-Head, whose own mother's promiscuity is implied in Beavis and Butt-Head Do America . In Beavis and Butt-Head Do the Universe , it is revealed that Beavis' mother's name is Shirley Beavis. After the duo disappear into a black hole in 1998 and end up in the year 2022, they are told what happened to her by

952-455: Is "not really my friend, he just follows me around." Nevertheless, it can be inferred that the duo are still best friends (or at least that their relationship is the only significant one for either), considering their shared activities, residence, interests, and their lack of any other friends. The two usually complement each other when one undertakes any sort of endeavor, especially if it involves their lifelong goal to "score with chicks". Beavis

1008-518: Is a fictional character and one of the two protagonists from the MTV / Paramount+ animated series Beavis and Butt-Head . He is voiced by the show's creator, Mike Judge . Judge got the name Butt-Head from his university days, when he knew a couple of other students who had the nicknames 'Iron Butt' and 'Butt-Head'. Compared to his best friend Beavis , Butt-Head appears to be calmer, cockier, and slightly more intelligent and self-aware ; however he

1064-452: Is among the rest of the teachers who despises the duo, especially when Butt-head laughs when he mentioned sperms in class. Mr. Herrera has shown mutual dislike for the boys, especially when they mispronounce his name and their inability to speak proper Spanish in his class.

1120-652: Is being severely beaten ( Teen Talk , Tired and Do America ), abandoned ( B&B vs the Vending Machine ) or deported to Mexico ( Vaya Con Cornholio ). The feeling appears to be mutual, as seen in Water Safety when Butt-Head nearly drowns in a pool and Beavis remains indifferent to Butt-Head's near-death experience, and in Choke when Butt-Head chokes on a chicken nugget and Beavis takes his time attempting to help him as if it were nothing serious. Beavis tells

1176-417: Is for diarrhea under the misconception he would get diarrhea; he was only soothed by an enormous bowel movement which he saved in his dresser drawer, much to Butt-Head's disgust. Beavis sometimes displays savant syndrome , such as when slapped hard by Butt-Head or when attempting to pass out by holding his breath and blowing into his thumb. In this state, Beavis makes intellectual statements, usually regarding

1232-483: Is generally a thorn in the side of both the Maxi Mart owner and his neighbor Tom Anderson . The duo spend a lot of time loitering in and around Maxi Mart, annoying both the owner and the customers (especially women, with their weak pick-up lines).

1288-415: Is kicking Butt-Head in the testicles. On at least one occasion, Beavis throws the first punch. In "Canoe", he initiates a fight by smacking Butt-Head across the head with a paddle (although Butt-Head goaded him into doing it). Butt-Head usually knows when Beavis is approaching his breaking point and will back off (as seen when he calls Beavis "Buttknocker" or insults Metallica one too many times). Despite being

1344-523: Is less off-putting than Butt-Head's crasser, more blatantly sexual approaches. For example, when the two encounter members of the opposite sex, Butt-Head will typically lead off with a smug opening line such as "Hey, baby", which invariably flops; Beavis, on the other hand, will usually approach the woman with a less obvious "Hi!" or "Hey, how's it going?" Easily influenced by Butt-Head, however, Beavis will often imitate his buddy's cruder pick-up lines . Beavis has also shown instances of insight on such topics as

1400-487: Is nearly always seen in profile, rather than looking directly at the camera. He is usually seen wearing a Metallica T-shirt, though in merchandising appearances his shirt displays the slogan "Death Rock" to avoid licensing issues. In the episode " Give Blood ", he wears a Slayer shirt, while in the Christmas special " It's a Miserable Life " Beavis is seen wearing a Winger shirt during the alternate reality section of

1456-417: Is oblivious to subtleties, is semi-literate and is still significantly more dimwitted than the other characters in the show. Despite his unintelligence and immaturity, he is usually confident in everything he says and does – no matter how ridiculous or frivolous it is.

1512-455: Is physically weak to the point of being unable to lift a bar without weights ( Buff n' Stuff ) even with help from Beavis, he still seems to win most fights with Beavis.

Butt-Head is now obese, balding, and has visible stubble and hair on his arms and legs. He no longer wears an AC/DC t-shirt; he now wears

1624-585: Is usually a follower, willingly taking Butt-Head's instructions and cooperating in his endeavors. This appears to be a byproduct of Beavis' own general witlessness rather than any fear of Butt-Head's abuse – as demonstrated in the alternate reality of " It’s a Miserable Life ", in which Butt-Head had never been born and Beavis was instead the dim but productive friend of younger neighbor and schoolmate Stewart Stevenson . Like Butt-Head, Beavis shares scorn for Stewart and Mr. Van Driessen. Though he shares Butt-Head's mutual hatred for Coach Buzzcut for

He speaks in a hoarse voice frequently punctuated by his trademark snicker ("Heh heh"). He

1736-431: The 9-1-1 operator "He's not really my friend". When Butt-Head is in a situation when he may need Beavis' help, Beavis' reluctance to help him may be due to a failure to realize that Butt-Head needs help. In Choke , when Butt-Head tries to demonstrate that he is choking Beavis says "I hate this stupid game", as if Butt-Head were playing a game of charades . When Beavis gets a nosebleed (caused by Butt-Head punching him in

1792-399: The (slightly) less intelligent of the two, he can be inadvertently witty, and when discussing subjects that neither he nor Butt-Head understands, he is more likely to guess the actual mechanisms at work. Also, on the rare occasion that a female exhibits interest in one of the duo, it is usually Beavis who gets the attention. This could be because of Beavis' somewhat childlike temperament, which

1848-417: The 2022 revival, Butt-Head's older self is overweight, balding, and wears a brown shirt jacket and white T-shirt. Because of inconsistent animation in the television series, Butt-head's height varies, but in the feature film "Beavis and Butt-Head Do America", which featured largely refined animation from the series, Butt-Head is consistently much taller than Beavis throughout the entire film. Though Butt-Head

2240-474: The face), Butt-Head "tries" to help him, resulting in Beavis losing a great deal of blood ( Nosebleed ). In The Final Judgement of Beavis , after Beavis knocks himself out by crashing into a wall of the house (imitating a maneuver by RoboCop on television), Butt-Head revives him by dumping a bucket of cold water on him. The two characters spend almost all of their time with each other, if not all of it. They share

2296-399: The gibberish, going so far as to look up the definition of bunghole . In that same episode, he claims to be from Lake Titicaca (because of the scatological sound of its name), but when asked where it is, he responds (incorrectly) with " Nicaragua ". Nicaragua may be one of the few things Beavis remembers from class lectures. Beavis' teacher, Mr. Van Driessen , refers to Nicaragua during

2352-579: The music video he is viewing. Beavis' family is occasionally mentioned but has never been seen in the show in person. An example is when Beavis states: "My mom's a slut... meh heh heh." According to discussion during some music video segments, Beavis' mother shares her son's peculiar hairstyle, is somewhat obese, and (most significantly) is an ignorant slut . While Beavis is conscious of his mother's promiscuity, it doesn't seem to bother him much, as he often laughs along in agreement whenever Butt-Head brings it up (in fact, when Butt-Head refers to Beavis' mother as

2408-610: The next, apparently due to poor sight and/or senility. He has been seen talking to other students in the classroom such as an overweight teen who was telling them about Jurassic Park and he seemed to be getting along with him and listening. Mr. Van Driessen is alone among teachers at Highland High in that he sees potential in the duo and he tries to reach out to them and encourage them. He makes several attempts to teach them life lessons, to no avail. Conversely, Coach Buzzcut takes every opportunity to embarrass them, exposing both their stupidity and their lack of manliness. Though he shares

During his detention the agent and his superior attempt to make sense of

2632-441: The real estate agent selling their house. The duo weren't paying attention to the story and were busy playing with the garbage disposal which drowned out much of what the real estate agent was saying, but it can be deduced that Shirley Beavis was affected by the loss of her son and she (and possibly Butt-Head's mother) won a settlement from NASA but ended up spending it all. In "Be All You Can Be", Butt-Head states that Beavis' father

In some early episodes, Beavis displays signs of being

2968-407: The two. He never seems to react to things unless they catch his attention, in which case he describes them as 'cool'. Beavis, on the other hand, always has some kind of reaction, although his actions predictably end with bad results. Butt-Head has a severe overbite , wears dental braces , and has brown hair and squinted eyes. His top gums are often exposed and he speaks with a nasally deep voice and

3024-448: The way he exploits their lack of intelligence, manliness and strength, Beavis has a little respect for him. He has shown some respect for Daria , as she is the only student who tolerates the duo and doesn't lose her cool in response to their actions.

3080-510: Was in the Navy and told the Army recruiter that Beavis' father was "a seaman" – although this could have been a joke designed to allow Butt-Head to use the word "semen".

He is said to be a drifter and
