Am I the only one who'd like to see that "Butthead" kid get slapped upside the head? Yeah, I know it's just a cartoon, but it ticked me off when Bill was having a good time at Bobby's birthday party and "Butthead" brought him down with "Your wife divorced you."

It's been said that his name is 'Dooley'. Definitely he's a Butthead clone. He's had similar speaking roles:

"Your Mom's gonna show us her boobs." (Square Peg)

"You've got ants." (the ep. where Hank's lawn gets trashed by Dale) and of course...

"This party's boring. Everyone hates you." (Shins of the Father)

Didi's not dumb, just submissive.

(Not that being submissive to Cotton Hill is *smart* or anything, but Didi did seem together and focused during the episode. Or do you equate "big boobs" with not being smart?)

No, but as I recall, Didi asked Hank if he wanted to "color" when he pointed out he knew her in kindergarten.

That doesn't sound too smart, big boobs or not.

I think because it was the way she was raised, and was probably raised to believe in gender stereotypes. "Pretty girls don't have to be smart." Kind of thing. I don't think she's dumb at all, after all, she was Cotton's nurse in WW2!

I think Didi just believes in gender stereotypes or something. And very submissive.

Excuse me? WWII started in 1939, not 1941! Are you saying that just because the U.S.A. ignored it's friends and allies for more than two years, the war didn't start until the U.S. finally did the right thing and declared war on Germany and Japan? Is that what you're saying? It sure seems so to me.

Well, since we're discussing the (fictional) of an American soldiers, the earliest HE could have fought in WWII would be extremely late-1941 (or more likely) 1942.

Um, unless he was a Flying Tiger (which he wasn't, of course).

Hmmm... Me not well with the English when me posted this. :< Here's take two...

Well, since we're discussing the (fictional) disability of an American soldier, the earliest HE could have fought in WWII would have been extremely-late-1941 or (more likely) early 1942.

In addition, the type of battle Cotton describes puts it much later in the war, maybe early '44. (Of course this is a cartoon and we're arguing global politics. This is truly one of the great things about the internet.)

Actually, indirectly i AM named after the late president of the U.S. (long story). And, in my NON-American opinion.....he was one of the few U.S. presidents for whom i can feel any admiration. I mean.....i *COULD* have been named after Nixon. Or Reagan. Or Bush. So i think i did pretty well by being named after Lincoln. He DID free the slaves, after all..........even if his motives were as much political as humanitarian. (See? Non-Americans study U.S. history, too. And maybe we see things from a different, and perhaps more accurate, perspective).

That's all. Just thinking out loud..........

I think it's cuz some girls are just raised that way. You know that old stereotype--Pretty girls don't have to be real smart. Just smart enough to get a man who can provide things for them while they provide "some things" for the man. Mamma said I should have gone to college<G>..

Is that Louie Anderson as the voice of the kid?

Nope -- Mike Judge himself does that voice.

I'd say not. Dooley doesn't bully others, or punch kids and then say "That's for...." or just punch for the hell of it. What he does is almost indescribable. All I can say is he points out things that either embarrass others ("We're gonna get to see her boobs,") depresses them ("Your wife divorced you") or shocks them ("Your lawn has ants.")

His name is 'Dooley'. And almost everybody considers him the "pseudo Butthead". No i don't think you're the only one who thinks he could get beat up. There's probably others who feel the same.
