TIL Mike Judge created Boomhauer's voice based on a disgruntled viewer's voice mail that he couldn't understand. The voice mail was left during the Beavis and Butthead days. Here is a link to that ...

Wow. This is some next level lore but kinda makes the most sense!

Yeah if you put the subtitles on, you get pretty much this.

Is it bad that I didn't need subtitles or anything and just instinctively knew exactly what he was complaining about. I was entirely confused as to how this related to Mike Judge at all.

For whatever reason, Mike Judge had an opportunity to hear this message (despite the fact that it seems directed at the station's program organizing) and upon hearing it was inspired with the idea for boomhauer's unintelligible speech

Hey FYI IDK why you decided to censor the word butthole but it's getting picked up as markdown which is making your comment look like it has some very strange italics.

I copied and pasted this as is from YouTube and didn’t pay attention. Trying to edit it now

I didn’t really need a translator (guess that says a bit about me). But in the Bevis and butthead days, there weren’t a lot of episodes to choose from and a lot of them weren’t “tame” enough for syndication outside of MTV. So you would see the same 2-4 episodes all over the place. That or he just mistook the name of the show entirely because he had no attention span.
My guess is that he’s complaining about them just rerunning the same episode constantly.

I've heard this probably a dozen times over the years. It's funny every time.

This is one of my favorite pop culture facts.
