I don't watch much TV at all, but I was recently introduced to Parks and Rec on Netflix.  If you've never seen the show, check it out.  Ron Swanson is a right-leaning alpha male that hates government.  He is a master of all trades, sleeps with all sorts of hot women, hoards gold, and loves guns.  In one episode he pulled a hidden bug out bag from the HVAC ducts and took off to his remote cabin.

I cannot believe I'm seeing this on a prime time TV sitcom.  Like it or not, Ron Swanson is the face of our movement.  And I'm happy to see he's not portrayed as a weak, stupid, fat worthless beta male.

It’s never too early to learn that the government is a greedy piglet that suckles on a taxpayer’s teet until they have sore, chapped nipples.

I love Ron Swanson. Some of his lines are fantastic and the ones that aren't hilarious are usually true statements concerning society or the government.

Wait.

Wait.

I'm concerned that what you just heard was "bring me a lot of bacon and eggs." What I said was "Bring me all of the bacon and eggs that you have." Is that clear?

Probably the best character on TV right now. Without him, I probably wouldn't bother watching Parks & Rec.

He rushed for his bug out bag because he heard his ex wife was coming to town.

"I was born ready, I'm Ron f***ing Swanson!"

"This is a claymore mine. Use it to protect your property."

"This is a Sig Mosquito. Used in Switzerland by their pussy police force." later- "Yeah, I regifted."

My idea of a perfect government is one guy who sits in a small room at a desk, and the only thing he's allowed to decide is who to nuke. The man is chosen based on some kind of IQ test, and maybe also a physical tournament, like a decathlon. And women are brought to him, maybe...when he desires them.

“I got my first job when I was 9. Worked at a sheet metal factory. In two weeks, I was running the floor. Child labor laws are ruining this country.”


“The whole point of this country is if you want to eat garbage, balloon up to 600 pounds and die of a heart attack at 43, you can! You are free to do so. To me, that’s beautiful.”


"I enjoy government functions like I enjoy getting kicked in the nuggets with a steel toed boot. But this hotel always served bacon wrapped shrimp. That's my number one favorite food wrapped around my number three favorite food. I'd go to a banquet in honor of those Somali pirates if they served bacon wrapped shrimp."

Ron Swanson and Tom Haverford make the show.  

The Snake Juice episode is fantastic...but you need to watch a few other episodes first so you can appreciate seeing Ron dancing around wasted.

I love the show. I work for the local .gov, and we're a big one at that, so not too many similarities, but it is kind of an "Office Space" for us.

Yeah, Ron is probably the primary reason I watch Parks & Rec!  

My favorite scene is when he's in Lowe's and one of the employees comes up to him and asks if he needed some help with his project.  Ron simply responds with: "I know more than you."

I swear the character was modeled after a RE Broker I worked for.  Come to think of it, I've known everyone in the show.

He does it because it is a sort of passion for him.

    It's a little more than that, now. He actually has paid clients. He's a Pro.

    Seems like a cool guy.  I see Amazon Prime has the 1st 4 season for free streaming.  Might have to start watching.
