Cornholio is the famous alter ego of Beavis from MTV's animated series Beavis and Butt-head. The nickname is a reference to anal sex, called "cornholing" in some circles (perhaps because of the body's difficult time properly digesting corn kernels, which often show up almost whole in stool.)
In some episodes, Beavis would consume large quantities of sugar or caffeine (e.g., 27 candy bars, strong espresso, Volt Cola) and proceed to go into a seizure, pulling his shirt over his head and ranting nonsensically, particularly about being someone named Cornholio needing "TP" (toilet paper) for his "bunghole." The episodes are notably paranoid: the phrase "are you threatening me?" is used and repeated. Occasionally, he jumbles his words saying "bungholio" & "cornhole", for this summons his mental incompetence & insanity. He seems to retain no memories of events afterwards.
The Cornholio metamorphosis ended in "Vaya Con Cornholio", with Beavis being sent to Mexico as an illegal immigrant.
These bizarre delusions created the fan opinion that Beavis is more prone to mental instability than Butt-head, who is 'merely' stupid.
The episodes containing the transformation, and how it occurs
