Line 28:
She sometimes had to explain to them basic facts, such as that seeds had to be planted in the ground ("[[Sprout]]") and that graduation existed ("[[U. S. History]]"); sometimes she offered ''straight'' advice to the duo without any sarcasm ("[[Beavis and Butt-head issue 12|Putting the X in Xmas]]"), something she rarely bothered to do with anyone stupid at Lawndale, or tried to reason with them even though she had to know this wouldn't work ("[[Beavis and Butt-head issue 1|Dental Hygiene Dilemma]]", "[[Career Day]]"). One time she even ranted in their presence about being forced to be a fashion reporter for the school newspaper, as if they were the only ones she ''could'' express her irritation too ("[[Sporting Goods]]"). Whatever her reaction to them, she still went out of her way to encounter and talk to them, even though this encounters were often irritating or bemusing.
 
Beavis & Butt-Head usually referred to her as "DiarhheaDiarrhea", though Butt-Head would usually call her by her real name to her face. He seemed to vaguely respect her, taking her advice on some things. Daria, for her part, seemed to be more annoyed by Beavis than Butt-head. In [[Beavis and Butt-head (comics)|the ''Beavis and Butt-head'' comics]] by [[Marvel Universe|Marvel Comics]], the lads were sometimes ruder and openly mentioned in Daria's presence that they didn't think much of her looks (usually as a statement of ''fact'' rather than a malicious comment).
 
Despite going out of her way to talk to them and an early instance where she tried to stop them taking a beating ("[[Citizen Butt-head]]"), she didn't think much of them. She was amused by the idea of them getting expelled and sent to [[Hope High]] where they'd get beaten up ("No Laughing"), she tried to ensure they were left behind on a field trip ("[[Beavis and Butt-head issue 23|Witless]]"), and as noted above she took advantage of them. When they were thought to be dead in "[[Beavis and Butt-head are Dead]]", Daria was hardly bothered at all. ''Why'' she kept talking to them when she didn't like them was never stated: fans have theorised that Daria, being friendless, was seeking out the company of Highland High's other big outcasts out of desperation.
