hailstateunis Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 Basically people are stealing the look of everyday rednecks and of course the Robertsons on Duck Dynasty: The Robertsons aren't stupid at all. They built their own company selling duck calls and became rich. They are godly, intelligent (except for Si) people. Much better celeberties and role models than the Kardashians or Miley Cyrus. I do agree that they are Gaudy and find it quaint that you take their tv persona as truth. There is nothing real about reality television other than the fact that they don't have firm scripts but reality tv does have producers, writers, and great editors.They go on speaking tours and have gone on mission trips to Haiti and the Dominican Republic. Honestly whether or they're real is irrelevant. They set very good examples and provide clean, funny tv. Much more entertaining and clean than that VMA preformance the other day. http://www.hailstateunis.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FiddySicks Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 Honestly, when has camo not been in style? I'm not personally a big fan, but it seems like it's been popular for the majority of my life.

Gothamite Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 They go on speaking tours and have gone on mission trips to Haiti and the Dominican Republic.They sounded so laudable until that point.

Burkell007 Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 So if everybody wears camo how is it camo then? Nobody else is not wearing it so its not camo, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheOldRoman Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 That's cool. Like the Native American/Indians thing, some people so "honored" like it and others do not.The rest of us can still have opinions on it.Painfully condescending, as expected. And very similar to the Indian thing, too. For at Illinois, I heard an effete white kid from Evanston, the craker-est of the crackers, admit that "the overhwelming majority of Native Americans aren't offended. But we know better than them. They should be." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OnWis97 Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 The Robertsons aren't stupid at all. They built their own company selling duck calls and became rich. They are godly, intelligent (except for Si) people. Much better celeberties and role models than the Kardashians or Miley Cyrus.What do you mean by "godly"? They are god-like? Followers of god (i.e., religious or spiritual)? Clean (i.e., "cleanliness is next to godliness"?)In either case I am not godly (unless you mean "clean") and like to consider myself intelligent. I don't want this to (further) derail the thread, but I don't know about "godly" as a response to the accusations that they are stupid.As to whether they are stupid, I proudly can I say I have no idea as I have never seen the show and do not have any idea what they did (or whether they were just "found") to get there, whereas I could not escape Honey Boo Boo to the point that I knew those people were morons. So taking at face value that they built a business and worked smart/hard to get where they are, I still think there is an element of trying to display a not-so-smart image. Fair or not, a lot of people are going to pre-judge them. Disclaimer: If this comment is about an NBA uniform from 2017-2018 or later, do not constitute a lack of acknowledgement of the corporate logo to mean anything other than "the corporate logo is terrible and makes the uniform significantly worse."

It's that they are a redneck family with lots of money that can do what ever they want with it, and do the fun stuff we wish we could do. they are religious not godly, that was just probably a wrong use of words, phil is a preacher, and so is one of his sons that only appeared in one episode recently. They have a prayer at the dinner table at the end of each episode, and phil likes to pull out his bible to more often that not prove why he is right. They teach alot of good values, about what it means to be a good person, and success. The show is very good, and good for society. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They teach alot of good values, about what it means to be a good person, and success. The show is very good, and good for society.I was simply stating that I went in with no idea about them, so I did not know whether they were intelligent. I was then taking what I was reading (that they were educated and self-made, etc.) at face value but suggesting, fair or not, the "redneck" image leads people to generalize about intelligence, or lack-thereof. As far as being religious, I do not happen to believe that is good or bad; nor intelligent or un-intelligent. It's not worth derailing a thread for, but I don't necessarily believe it's particularly valid in defense of them (or anyone) as "good" or "intelligent."As for whether the show is "good" or "good for society", I don't know. All I do know is that I watch enough TV and I am choosing to skip this one.

Funny enough I have an acquaintance of mine that pilots the private jet for one of the Godly TV ministers in OC. It's not the Crystal Cathedral Schulyers, who bankrupted their church and looted its coffers on their mansions and lavish lifestyle. This is the other mega-church paster that has that big tacky glass building off the 405 in OC and yes their paritioners pay for them to fly on a private jet and live in mansions as well.The strange thing is that despite having nice wholesome TV shows and squeaky clean public images on the air they live rather self indulgent and luxurious lives on the backs of people much less fortunate.Moral of the story: Take nothing on TV for face value.
