Excuse Me Sir Billy Butcher
Excuse Me Sir Billy Butcher are a wave of TikTok animation memes pairing a smiling, sky-gazing comic panel of Billy Butcher from The Boys with the song Charlie's Inferno by That Handsome Devil. The format started in May 2026 and spread through character swaps and animal lookalike comparisons.
Overview
Excuse Me Sir Billy Butcher, also called Excuse Me Sir Guy or just the Excuse Me Sir meme, are a string of TikTok animation edits built around a single panel of Billy Butcher from The Boys comics, scored to Charlie's Inferno by That Handsome Devil1. The hook is a still of Butcher smiling with his eyes shut and his head tilted up toward a blue sky, animated with light camera moves and shake effects.
The panel itself comes from the late comic arc fans call the Superhuman Insurrection or Superhuman Meltdown3. Editors typically run the still through software like Alight Motion to fake motion, in the same family as the Invincible Wobble Edits that came before it3. As the trend grew, creators swapped Butcher for other characters or paired the panel with animals striking the same chin-up pose.
How It Spread
How to Use This Meme
A typical Excuse Me Sir Billy Butcher edit takes the smiling, sky-facing Butcher panel, layers it over Charlie's Inferno by That Handsome Devil, and adds light animation like zooms or shakes. A common convention is to either swap Butcher for another character drawn in the same pose or pair the panel with a photo of an animal striking a matching head-tilt, often circled for emphasis.
