Butt Head

Butt Head

Butt-head is a fictional character from the MTV animated series Beavis and Butt-head. He is voiced by the show's creator, Mike Judge.

Mike Judge got the name Butt-head from his university days, when he knew a couple of kids who had the nicknames 'Iron Butt' and 'Butt-head'. Some of the mispronunciations of Butt-head's name by adults have been Butthole, Bum-Head (by President Clinton) Butter-head, Buttbrain, Tangpode, Nuthead, Bob-head, and Butter (Wall Of Youth). Senator Ernest Hollings first used the name 'Buffcoat' on the floor of the U.S. Senate — an incident believed to have inspired incidents of mispronunciation of the title characters' names.

Famous quotes containing the words butt and/or head:

    “Unfortunately the laughter of adults too often carries to the ears of the young the ring of ridicule, that annihilating enemy of human dignity. Like grownups, children enjoy participating in a joke and appreciate admiration of their wit and cleverness, but do not enjoy being the butt of the jokes”
    —Leontine Young (20th century)

    “We may not pay Satan reverence, for that would be indiscreet, but we can at least respect his talents. A person who has for untold centuries maintained the imposing position of spiritual head of four-fifths of the human race, and political head of the whole of it, must be granted the possession of executive abilities of the loftiest order.”
    —Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
