Recap / Beavis And Butthead S 10 E 01 Meditation Sucks

Go To

Beavis and Butt-Head take yoga to avoid detention.


Tropes:

  • Ascending to a Higher Plane of Existence: Your spirit leaves your body and does this when you reach nirvana. The only way to leave is to desire something.
  • Cool and Unusual Punishment: The boys take a class on yoga and meditation in lieu of detention. They end up wishing they were in detention instead.
  • Detention Episode: Played With. Beavis and Butt-Head went to Van Dreissen's yoga class specifically as an alternative to detention.
  • Fantastic Nirvana: Because the pair have nothing going on inside their minds, they are able to achieve total nirvana, which includes figures like the Buddha, Zeus, Christ, and even Bill Gates.
  • The Friend Nobody Likes: The deities who achieved Nirvana don't like Bill Gates and it's implied he only got into Nirvana because he paid generous donations to Buddhist charities.
  • Instant Expert: Both Beavis and Butt-head achieve nirvana with zero effort, not because they're experts in yoga, but because they have no thoughts to speak of, which instantly helps them achieve that ascended state.
