huh huhhuh huhh huh you said thingie

I knew this cartoon was crap but it was still funny. I knew people IRL that were a lot like these guys (without having seen the cartoon) and that made it all the funnier. I didn’t watch it religiously but even now I occasionally will start laughing like one of them.

@...Dreth: I think Ren & Stimpy opened the door way for wacky and crude cartoons actually, not Beavis and Butthead.

@...Dreth: Just because people focus on Beavis & Butthead doesn’t make it the gateway cartoon. That’s like saying that because the average person names “Nine Inch Nails” when asked if they know what Industrial is, the Trent Reznor is the forefather of industrial. Common knowledge does not inspiration make.

I have no doubt that Beavis and Butthead has played their role (mostly in desensitizing the masses) but people who are really into cartoons (and hence likely to grow up and create them) would be more aware of Mike Judge’s other creations as well as Ren & Stimpy, etc.

@...Dreth: I’m going to assume that’s not a reference to the band “O U NO U”.

You just admitted that your basis of opinion is flawed. :p I’m basing my opinion on articles written about the various genres that have evolved since that time. I’m not a die hard fan of anything that I can think of.
