About

"Excuse Me Sir" Billy Butcher Edits, also known as Excuse Me Sir Guy or simply Excuse Me Sir Meme, refers to a series of video edits and animation memes based on an edit of The Boys character Billy Butcher, specifically from the comics, set to the song "Charlie’s Inferno" by That Handsome Devil. The original edit was posted by TikToker @timandmichael4 in early May 2026, spreading over the following weeks.

Many of the edits use a specific image of Billy Butcher smiling, eyes closed and head pointed to the blue sky. The original edit inspired further edits over the following weeks in mid-2026, including versions that replace Butcher with other characters and memes that compare images of animals doing similar poses to the image of Butcher.
