You'll notice that I have conspicuously used "Soldier Beavis" as my avatar for well over a decade.
A deep and thoughtful study of the inner workings of "Beavis and Butthead" would show a prophetic look into the future of this country. When these two dysfunctional students from Highland High School burst into the public consciousness almost 30 years ago they gave us a glimpse at what our country would look when their generation reached middle age...
...narcissistic, self indulgent, greedy, aimless, and socially disconnected citizens that are only interested in themselves.
A nation addicted to instant gratification, hypnotized by assuming that whatever they saw on TV was the next best thing to reality.
For fuck sake; they tried digging for oil in their back yard because they watched a rerun of a 30 year old SITCOM and figured, if the Beverly Hillbillies could strike oil and become rich, then so could they...
...here we are; 30 years later watching our youth eating tide pods, dumping ice on their heads, licking toilets seats, punching old people, and even hosting “COVID parties”
All the while demanding that the government pay off their student loans because their esoteric Degree in Memeology from the University of Texas at Austin (
dont laugh - look it up for yourself) still hasn't produced that six figure starting salary that they thought it should.
Beavis and Butthead are fortune tellers that showed us 30 years ago what 2022 was going to look like - we just didn't pay attention.
