This just dawned on me and I can't believe I didn't notice it before...

Beavis and Butt-head are actually Dave Mustaine and James Hetfield.
Once you figure this out, it explains a lot.
1: Butt-Head tells Beavis that he sounds like Dave when they watch the "Sweating Bullets" music video. He's right.

2: Butt-Head himself aftually sounds like James Hetfield. He even starts every sentence with "uhhhh" ... Anyone who's seen a Metallica interview knows James also does this.
3: They have a love / hate relationship that's clearly dominated by Butt-Head (James). Butt-Head is always picking on Beavis, but Beavis sticks around. He's even obsessed with Metallica the way Dave is.
I only just now had this revelation and am already noticing more than a few similarities. This couldn't have been a coincidence, could it?
I don't think I can unlearn this, now.

You're right but James and Dave both scored
BeefwagonDiscs@reddit
James probably scored with Beavis's mom.

This is why Beavis started drinking and became Cornholio. It happened so often that James had no choice but to kick Beavis out of Metallica.
It's sad but true.

These puns slay me so bad that you could be tried for Murder One day.

Your Fade to Black is not my intention, so that would be in the Eye of The Beholder.

Who didn't?

I wonder if James was impressed by the battleship tattoo on the butt of Beavis' mom?

Dude, I have been saying for SO long that Mustaine sounds like an angry Beavis and no one ever gets on board with it!
Chaghatai@reddit
It is a coincidence and what coincidence there is is an overfit to begin with, you're kind of reaching bro
Bane0079@reddit (OP)
Probably, but as a fan of all 3, I'm looking forward to rewatching with this in mind. 😅
BeefwagonDiscs@reddit
Dave Mustaine's dad was probably that roadie from The Marshall Tucker Band
Chaghatai@reddit
Yeah it's fun to do sometimes regardless - I see what you're doing is using those band members as an interpretive lens
napsacrossamerica@reddit
Yeah but Beavis is actually likeable
