"You're not failing the class, you're just giving examples of how not to pass."
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Probably the best damn line heard in a long time.

"You just have a mind that doesn't fit their metrics"
@@kilroy7562 Dude! It's the first meme!
Whaddup Kilroy? You seen any Jerry lately?
"That headless pig is a threat!"
"No - it's a gift!"
They're both right
It’s a matter of perspective.
Threatening presents
Initially it'd be frightening, until you realize that someone just left a freshly beheaded and bled pig on your stoop, and that you're gonna eat like a king for a couple weeks.
I wouldn’t mind a pig carcass.

True
"You're not annoying,
you're entertaining to people who don't exist."
Also the "proud ignorant woman" ironically fits Peggy perfectly.
No fuckin way, that’s goddamn brilliant
Yeah, pretty much.
the fact that they gave him a small moment of lucidity before killing him is the most messed up part about this
Right. It's really fucked up cause it's like okay you're mentally ill so you still deserve to die.
“What am I doing in a pig costume”, one of the last things he said, after he got his sanity back, only for it to be all gone. Probably one of KOTH’s darkest episodes, and one of the best in my opinion.
Why didn't he just get knocked out by Peggy and fall off the track after he got his sanity!?

*funniest episodes
@@nickyblue4866 true, I did laugh at Peggy’s line at the end
'I am a proud ignorant woman and no one is going to change that'
She managed to describe twitter in one single sentence
But what is a woman?
@@dontdiscriminatehateeveryo9263 A miserable little pile of secrets?
@@dontdiscriminatehateeveryo9263 I don't know I'm not a biologist.
@@dontdiscriminatehateeveryo9263 so, do flowers have gender?
Almost certainly not, but flowers do have sex, some are hermaphroditic, some are separated as male and female.
Animals are a bit like this too, but we have society so we make it more complicated than we need to. Part of our behavior in mate attraction displays, we get to choose how we present. Because our ape brains are feeble and react with anger when we think there might be sex (or the ability to watch sex, it’s basically the same thing for the brain) and then we don’t encounter the parts we are programmed to want to see, we have encoded a lot of things around sex and gender to try to make it less complicated and we don’t have to ask questions that might lead to anger.
But….a lot of that social programming just isn’t useful anymore, and can be quite confining. Society has progressed to where expression can happen in multiple ways without being tied to old modes of expression.
If you want to see where this goes, then just study the history of last social movements around acceptance of different kinds of people.
That's a lot of words to say, "Everyone wants to be different from everyone else." Which is even longer than, "Everyone wants to he a snowflake."
I think what really would have helped is if Peggy had realized and acknowledged that by domineering over Luanne, she made her more susceptible to Trip's manipulation and in order for Luanne to grow, she has to be able to state her own wants and desires.
@@FireSilver25, sounds like my father. It's smothering.
I actually would have loved if Peggy realizes that Trip is a dark mirror of herself. Someone who could do a LOT of harm even if she doesn't realize it.
Hell my mom came from an abusive household and when she became a mom? She did her absolute best to break the cycle. Yeah she still messed up because she had to unlearn a lot of unhealthy patterns but I can safely say she knows when to back off!
"Honey, Trip had a mental breakdown and is now a sausage. That is not a better place."
Still probably one of my favorite lines in the series just for how blunt Peggy's delivery was.
That's pretty psychopathic how they just casually have a conversation the second after watching a man get butchered and never bring it up again.
That line makes me crack up every time.
@@desuretard8654Honestly I would be relieved if someone who was actively threatening my family's life got butchered, kinda fucked up that he was clearly not in his right mind so it's a little more difficult to feel he is responsible for his actions, but in the moment my first instinct would probably be more "thank god it's over" than "Oh no, a guy died."
Does anyone find it cute how Hank wants to ride in a Hit Air Balloon because they're fueled by Propane? His reaction was kind of adorable
Loving your work is such a rare thing these days that seeing Hank experience genuine joy from encountering aspects of his job outside of work makes us smile. It's an attitude difficult to emulate, but immediately recognizable as "good" to our instincts.
@@noanswer1864 I've recently decided to try to take a Hank like approach to my barista job because I really genuinely love coffee and it definitely makes every day so much more fun
@@aliencafe It's not even just about fun. Enjoying your job makes you perform better and leads to better opportunities within that job/career. So that's a very good idea.
He would’ve made love to propane if possible 😂😂😂😂😂
Although, the creepy pig guy making a threat on him to Peggy kinda took away the "cute" factor.
Luanne being a mechanic is one thing I wish the show dived into more.
I like the joke of her skill being ignored by everyone, but I definitely think it should have been used a little more.
That or have her go full on mechanic when she meets Lucky, that would have been hilarious.
@@ninjaswordtothehead it would have made the most sense. Specially since lucky got the that big 4x4. It would've made for a great episode of his "code" not allowing a woman to work on his car as a man or something. But she shows her true skills in not only being able to fix it. But improve it as well.
Same. It's frustrating.
@@X7rocks he didn't have a code saying women can't work on his car. That's why Peggy imagined luane being his personal unpaid mechanic
@@pheunithpsychic-watertype9881 I never said he did have that in his code.
"Well at least he is in a better place now"
"Luanne He was killed and turned into a sausage, that is not a better place"
Ouch.
Im from Texas, I’ve lived here since I was born in 1997 and I’ve gotta say, if somebody left a huge animal carcass on my doorstep, I’d honestly be horrified.
"I'm a proud, ignorant woman" might my favorite line in the whole series. Such a hilarious line in such a dark episode.
Fair. My personal favorite line is also in this episode.
"Life is a series of compromises."
I posted that clip as a reply when my (idiot) bimbo sister grandstanded on a naive, bad life choice (which later had the exact backfire result that I warned it would) and it made her sooo mad 🥰
Maybe I'm just being pedantic, but I really hate when people mix up the definition of "ignorant" with "innocent". Innocent means to be unlearned or unaware. Ignorant means to be willingly unaware.
Similar meanings, but there is a world of difference.
I love how sincere the voice acting is, very subtle.
Same! I LOVE that line and it's the reason I remember this episode first and foremost. Trip second & headless pig third.
A few insults I like-
"Darwin should be paying you royalties"
"The wheel keeps moving but the hamster is dead"
"It must be really hard to underestimate you"
"No matter how hard life gets, I can always look at you and feel better" (both a compliment and an insult)
I like the last one because it is useful in more than one way.

The pig seems to be the “bomb under the table trope” where the audience knows how dangerous the situation is but the characters don’t.
I've never heard simple dramatic irony be called "bomb under the table trope"
@@PASTELXENONI think I heard it as the snake under the table.
@pastelxenon I think this a reference to how Alfred Hitchcock described suspense in an interview. Two characters are sitting at a table talking, and we the audience can see a ticking bomb under said table. But the characters are unaware of it. Dunno if that analogy is very applicable towards the "dead pig on the porch" thing, because both the audience and Peggy are aware of what's going on
@@walrider115 But usually, the bomb under the table trope describes a present and imediate danger that the audience is aware of and the characters aren't. The pig itself was not dangerous, so I don't think it applies to this trope.
I believe that's called visual suspens
Honestly kinda wish they let Louanne stay a small childrens entertainer in some way, she is really creative and bright and genuine which were what made her love that job and work well with the kids
Honestly I liked her finding her niche with the Manger Babies.
"You're a huge jerk."
"Don't take offense at that... it just means that you're brave enough to not follow society's norms."
Lot of edgy people think like that lmao
Both sides have a point
@@remuslebeau6570 Depends, one group of people say that society should be better for more people, and the others say that only a specific group of people deserve to exist and the others can die...
@@hyperx72 I like to think that what op said is a good mind sight on where you're life might be. Ie high school outcast. But those people who just think they need to have others die are bigger edge lords.
The people who unironically think that's what people mean by "jerk", are the same people who ignore the evidence behind the proven constant of evolution and the proven neurology of gender. Also the people who align themselves with Hitler and think andromorphic is the default. Newsflash, most every andromorph has atleast one nipple.

"If ignorance is bliss, then you must be the happiest person on the planet"
Not sure quite what you were looking for but felt relevant to this episode
"I'm proud of you for having the courage to express yourself publicly." is a great slow burn insult.
I work with a guy who acts like Peggy, that unyeailding confidence/self entitlement is terrifying.
Also more likely to put you in the back of a trunk. xD

Same here
Confidence is good but yeah too much of a good thing
Can't stand them
"I can't enjoy a party without knowing exactly where the bathroom is. You've known this when you married me"
One of my favorite all time lines in any show
The line "he had a mental breakdown and now he's a sausage. I do not consider that a better place" will forever be burned into my mind
"You know, people always think being called a "bitch" is so negative. But frankly, I just think it shows how you're strong, and confident, and absolutely fucking terrifying, please don't kill me!"

"I think this food you made is awful. No, it's a compliment it means when you actually learn you'll become a great chef."
I actually liked the pig being given after the reveal that Trip was unhinged, it helped emphasize the creepiness of a beheaded gift pig by making it clear that it was indeed intended to threaten.
"You aren't insane, you just have a unique perspective."
Can we just appreciate Michael Keaton's performance in this episode, it's fantastic he brings just enough comedy and just as much horror it's perfect
Dang that's who voiced him?? He also voiced an actual pig, Porco Rosso.
Best guest star next to David Carradine!
@@KittyMonk Holy shit David Carradine voiced Junichiro that’s amazing
It took me a bit in this video to realize it was Keaton, dudes a class act. Solid actor.
He was both hilarious and creepy in the ep'. Keaton is great with those kinda characters, as he was Beetlejuice, let's not forget.
Like many others i found this episode to be super freaky, especially because of Trip's pork obsession and the part where he said that Luanne was asleep for 14 hours always made me theorize that maybe Trip drugged her just for the purpose of dying Luanne's hair in her sleep. which would explain why Trip told Luanne to drink all of the warm milk.
That's why he told her to drink it all! All the warm milk!
Makes sense, how else would he be able to dye her hair without her waking up in the middle of it.
Hey .... he could have done worse to her so we lucky he just dyed her hair.
@@animefan2454 True, but drugging her is still a major offense.
yeah the point of the whole scene was a darker "read between the lines" kinda moment hence the red dye= blood reference.
"you don't match the traditional beauty standard which means you had plenty of time to develop character to be a good wife"- something that has actually been said to me
All I remember is the ending of this episode.
*Luanne literally kills that guy
Peggy: "You did the right thing, Luanne."
*credits
“You’re a doormat, but that’s okay because you know how to roll with the punches.”
Thank you! I hated how Peggy babied Luanne, I honestly think Luanne’s flanderization was a self-fulfilling prophecy: Peggy wanted Luanne to reach her full potential but was so worried about her niece encountering obstacles or turning out like her deadbeat mom that in the end, Luanne became an airhead married to a hillbilly.
You should totally cover the episode with Luanne’s dad, where instead of having Luanne see the monster he is, they keep her in la la land. Plot holes aside, I think if Luanne could’ve handled the fact her mom was never gonna change, she could’ve handled the fact her father was never gonna change, pregnant or not. At least the episode where she had Gracie showed both sides.
And since you wanted an insult compliment: your house is filthy. That just means you get to avoid parties!
Hey, look. It's that girl who talks about Star vs The Forces of Evil a lot.
Fan of your work.
Heyyyy love your vids Kitty Monk 💙🤍
I don’t think the goal was to show Luanne as “married to a hillbilly”
1) don’t do Lucky like that. Lucky is a good man and he respects Luanne. Kind of shitty to judge a book by its cover like that, and I would have stronger words if this was about a real person, rather than a cartoon character.
2) Luanne completed her arc and I don’t think they knew what to do with her after that. I don’t think the goal was to show Luanne as being “ruined”, just a failure of the show to evolve, and I think this had a lot to do with outside factors related to Luanne’s voice actress.
3) she didn’t become an “air head”. She started a successful small business around her hobby, and then took on a skilled trade and was successful at it. Again, shitty to judge a book by its cover.
It's her
@@dstinnettmusic You can be a hillbilly and a good man. Lucky calls himself that because he slipped and won a $53K settlement, and believed that would be enough to live off...
"You don't like it. Okay. Well, we can always shave it off and wait for it to regrow."
Luann definitely had flashbacks to the Mega-Lo Mart explosion when she heard that.
Love how you gloss over how a man was just brutally killed and Peggy cared more about the "I told you so." How non-chelaunt about they whole situation after he was killed. You know, instead of the investigation that would have followed or the possiblity that he may still be alive.
Why didn't he jump off lol...how did she get away from his grasp without him grabbing her again before she got off and how come he had to die lol...
@@razkable If you mean after his mind became clear, it might be freezing from shock.
@@razkabledude shut up. He literally went into shock cause the taser literally rewired neurons in his brain so he was normal again. If you woke up sane in a pig costume you would be like wtf too
@@razkableAlso he couldn't jump off unless he rolled off. Leanne was lucky when she leaped off.

HAHAHAHAHA.
you gave me one hell of a laugh, thank you.
I just realized something.
Peggy cheated death but has seen a few people die in front of her.
Holy shit....
There 's a reason why Nancy gets more narcissistic in later seasons.
Honestly I'm amazed the show doesn't reference back to this in later episodes. This is very much on the more fantastical side of a situation king of the hill has happen. Watching a crazy man in a pig costume who is dressed like that to be the pig in an advertisement because he wants you to look like a woman and marry a man in the same advertisement get violently impaled and you heard him come to his senses right before he died. That's shit you'd never forget. Hell youd be a local legend for experiencing that.
Feels like Final Destination lol
@legojay14 that's the kicker of the episode. Peggy so fucking full of herself to the point she doesn't even comprehend how amazingly creepy and wild the situation is that if she told everyone what happened, she would gain the recognition she craves as a hero and she could be a speaker to warn young girls about safe job seeking. But no, she herself takes no shock or lesson from it. The fact they are both so unphased is disturbing enough.
Another Luanne episode I really love is "Leannes saga". really shows what kinda household Luanne came from and how lucky she is to be with the hills. The episode is also FULL of subtle details about Leanne and her relationship with Luanne.
I loved this one! Plus it’s nice to have a woman be the abuser and this not being played for a joke.
Hated what they did with Luanne’s dad, though.
@@KittyMonk same here. Theres a major flaw with the end of that episode that always got to me. Luannes dad got a life sentence at the end and they decide to hide it from luanne, meaning he is eventually gonna die in prison. When he does Luanne will find out about it, the prison isnt gonna just notify peggy they'll let Luanne know too, thus breaking her heart worse than before.
@@davisthegamelord woah wait what where does it say he went to prison i never heard that i always figured he was understandably hiding away from his crazy ex
@@TheRealRusDaddy it was revealed (or retconed) in the later seasons that he was never hiding on an oil rig he was actually in prison. when he got out he tried to frame lucky for a crime, it didn't work and he got a 3rd strike giving him a life sentence. The episode is called "life a loosers manual" and spoiler alert it sucks
"You're not fat, you're just huge. And that means there's more of you to be loved"
When Luann said she was a proud ignorant woman I choked on my drink. That was hilarious 😂
Cartman feeding his bully his own parents had me ducked up for a while and this episodes ending made me feel the same
This episode freaked me out so much when i was a kid, that i swore that if i ever saw someone wearing a pig costume in real life i would zap them with a stun gun no if's, and's or buts about it.
Amen
Get the long taser. The one that looks like a cattle prod.
Yes that dress makes you look fat, but it's fine, that dress is a physical representation of my love to clinging to you.
😂🤣😂🤣👏👏👏 Okay that made me laugh out loud.
That's kind of creepy.
You know the sad truth is if Peggy never got involved Luann will still have her job and none of the events of this episode never would happen. The crazy guy would have never died we would still be alive but he is still be crazy
I think Luann's mechanic skills going to waste was handled perfectly in the show. It's almost the defining characteristic of both her and her situation. The key to her independence and growth is right in front of everyone's face, but she doesn't pursue it and no one encourages her to. The sad part is that no one even actively objects to it, which might even serve as a spur to make her lean into it. It's just that to her and everyone around her, a career like that for her is not even something they would think of. She is forever trapped by these walls that she may never even see.
Yeah. It's shit like this that makes me hate the family when I watch the episodes. They don't really give a damn about her and tolerate her cause of Peggy. It sucks Leanne was an airhead cause she could have used her looks to go to Houston and meet a man who could invest in her or apply to a mechanics shop. Instead she got pregnant by a buck tooth country guy and he's applauded cause he's nice to her and isn't like Buckley.
7:00 This one's specifically for you
You have a victim mentality...
What? It's a compliment, that means that you had such a good life and your parents took such a good care of you, that you don't actually know what a struggle and a victim actually looks like
shit I actually say that to people sometimes. that they have no idea how lucky they are to have been so sheltered and spoiled that they can get upset about (current outrage)

For those who don’t know/remember, the “altered scene” was supposedly an ending just before the credits where tripp’s mutilated body would be hanging from one of the hooks
Personally, I don’t think that’s real. Tv shows go through a process before they are aired, and who in their right mind would allow that to be aired on tv, especially when KOTH hasnt been that kind of show to begin with, at least not to my memory
I kinda remember seeing this episode as a kid and seeing a pigs body hanging but my memory is probably making it up
It's like some bad creepy pasta. Tripp's body was hanging mutilated.... with HYPER REALISTIC blood!
@@mossylog4168 that’s more than likely the mandela effect at work or some fusion of other memories
To be fair, you do have situations like the bubblegum and the Alamo like Mike Matei has brought up.
@@Xyz404e yeah that probably what happened my mind just made that up
I'm sure glad I didn't see this episode until I was an adult. This psychological horror is done extremly well.
The worst part is that no matter whether he got shocked or not, he was never gonna be punished for what he was doing. If he hadn't been shocked, he would be getting what he wanted, and after being shocked, he wasn't the same man who was doing the bad things.
The ending shocked me as a kid, when the taser cured him. I thought Hank would appear out of nowhere and save him. Then when he got impaled, I just looked at the TV thinking how did they got away with that.
Him getting impaled when he was still crazy, dark but I could see that. Him getting impaled but cured, how did FOX let KOTH get away with that.
It was off screen....and hank just disappeared it seems or went to the bathroom and the ep just ending soon after was weird
The episode was actually banned for a while because of that.
@@sunny-lm2npNo, he was clearly cured. The tonality of his voice completely changed his he spoke his voice wasn't completely the same as it was before.
Same! This episode punishes mental illnesses like schizophrenia, manic bipolar and other mental disturbed disorders. Trip Said the voices in his head were gone and he could finally think clearly. This indicates he probably had an extreme form of schizophrenia so I hated that instead of Hank coming in to save him and then trip getting taken to a mental hospital with his pork company shutting down, he gets killed and punished as a gag. It's not right at all.

Michael Keaton's delivery was perfect despite some of the failures in the script.
I think the reason they undercut the mystery element with the early reveal is that it was meant as a Halloween episode, so they wanted it heavier on horror over mystery. I think if (for some unholy reason) this was written as a normal episode they would have played more on the mystery (but also probably wouldn’t have gone as dark).
I'd love to see your take on the episode where Hank's dog Ladybird bit a black repairman (guest voiced by the late great Bernie Mac) and then Hank was accused of being racist. One of the many episodes that was way ahead of its time to the modern day
RIP Bernie Mac 🙏🏼
Already has been done by another Hill-Tuber if you're interested, but I would like to hear Shade's thoughts as well
He totally should review that episode
I personally think Racist Dawg is a terrible episode
@@puffnstuff7905 Yeah I dont think it was executed well. It felt a bit awkward and forced. Maybe if they had a disagreement that lead to Hank(and not the dog) or one of his friends(Dale) directly behaving hostile to the repairman, and him then accusing them of being racist, the plot would've worked a little better.
13:03 it might be creepy, but boy can Trip hold a steady beat.

12:57 “…what?” - Shady Doorags
He sounds so innocent, confused, sad and scared.
The name Pigmalion is a reference to the Greek myth of Pygmalion and Galatea, in which a sculpture creates his perfect woman out of marble. Because normal living women have nasty little habits like talking, breathing, or having sexual desires. Pygmalion names his carving Galetea, and dotes on it like any good basement dweller to their muse waifu.
Aphrodite takes a liking to Pygmalion’s sculpting abilities, and Pinocchios that bad boy, blessing Galatea with the gift of life. So now she can talk, and have sexual desires… whoops.
King of the Hill essentially just rewrote the myth with a bacon flavored twist. Man, I love that show.
(Overly Sarcastic Productions has a really good video on this, I basically just gave a summary of a summary.)
I remember a version of the story where Aphrodite appeared to him in a dream in her true form, the only place where a mortal can view a gods true form safely. And that Pygmalion committed every bit of her likeness to memory.
Then Aphrodite brings Galatea to life he asked or something like that and they fell in love
His distaste for women had nothing to do with the things you listed and had more to do with the fact that the women of his town had all gone into prostitution. He only had issues with taking a bride from the women *of his town* (which back then, the people in your neighborhood were pretty much your only romance options back then) because of that. Plus he was happy being married to Galatea when she came to life.
Overly Sarcastic Productions tend to twist the facts on stuff like that, which is why I stopped watching them.

The episode is pretty tragic when you think about it. In the end he turns back normal without any mental illness by something Similar to electric shock therapy wich is done today only to be token out before he could even live out a Regular life.
Exactly. I wanted to see him survive and apologize to her before being taken to a mental asylum or something

Hell of a case of Mandela, could've sworn the show ending with an outline of his corpse hanging in the air, but guess just remembering the hanging hooks in final scene.
That's one of the darkest episodes. To be sure. I watched the episode where Arlen floods the other day, and where Bill takes over the safety of the shelter... and Bill reminds me so much of the Rona Tyrants that it was kind of strange.
IT'S THE HIGHLANDS FLOODER!!! GETTEM!!!!
I think it was more of a dig at Lord of the Flies, but whatever. The power went straight to his head and for once, people needed him. I also can’t help but think that you forgot about other natural disasters where people would go to shelters for their own safety but I guess we don’t do that anymore after the disaster Katrina was.
I saw that episode 2 hours ago
The "proud, ignorant woman" moment is my favorite moment. The other one is the moment with the snake in Serpunt.
"You know... THAT episode."
This had to be written with the intention of being spoken by Hank.
15:25 Ayy! That’s me! I was wondering why that video of mine was spiking in views all of a sudden. Guess I got you to thank! So…thank you!
I was scrolling through my feed and saw the pig costume and instantly was like "Ah hell." This episode has been burned into my mind 🤣.
This is actually one of my favorite episodes. It was like a half hour animated John Waters movie. And Trip Larsen being played by Michael Keaton was just magnifique!
13:05
My favorite part about this scene is he keeps snorting while Shadi loses his shit, it just amplifies the chaos
Awww you skipped past one of my favorite jokes in the show.
“You see Peggy? I told you I could have come as Buck Strickland instead of renting this getup.”
Comedy freakin gold.
Even if Luanne was totally in the wrong, I have always found it to be very unprofessional when a manager/supervisor chastises an employee in public.
Sometimes dressing a subordinate down is absolutely necessary. However, it should always be done privately. No good ever comes out of publicly embarrassing your employees by dressing them down in front of others. Not in front of other employees, and certainly not in front of customers.
It actually makes the boss look very unprofessional which reflects far more poorly on the establishment than a regular employee being unprofessional. The old saying about how a fish rots from the head down comes to mind.
The employee will feel bad enough just having been dressed down by a supervisor in the first place. Unless they are a total slacker who just doesn’t care, in which case, best be rid of them.
It is interesting though how this episode really illustrates just how Peggy tends to stifle Luanne’s growth the most, even more than Luanne herself does on her own, whereas Hank, who is much harder on her, and really didn’t even want her in the house in the first place, was actually much better at pushing her towards progression and as as far as reaching her own potential.
In spite of not really wanting her around, Hank was a true father figure in her life.
Now as far as the Trip Larson character dying a gruesome death goes…. That electric shock that made him sane could have been temporary, so better safe than sorry.
Lastly, to your point about not liking people telling what to do, more specifically, how to live your life. I am the same way, which is why, like you, I also felt a certain amount of discomfort watching this episode as well, and for pretty much all the same reasons you pointed out.
Jealousy. I always suspected Peggy purposely sabotage Leanna cause she knew Lianne had potential and if Lianne reached her potential, Peggy wouldn't be able to be the smart mouth "educated' woman of the house. Her fragile and fractured ego and self esteem, her arrogance wouldn't br able to handle her trailer park niece excelling and exceeding her. This is why Peggy always tries to have some involvement in liannes life decisions like in this episode so if Luanne does well at least she's doing moderately well but never better than her.
@@60wwediva Peggy obviously had some major complexity issues. A lot people said she got worse after the skydiving incident.
But I attribute most of it to her upbringing, per the episode where they visited her parents in Montana, and how controlling her own mother was, and always put her down.
Granted, that's an excuse, because how you deal with something is up to you. The only way Peggy knows to lift herself up, to deal this issue, is keeping someone else beneath her.
"You're delusional. What? It just means you're in charge of how you experience life."
Okay. That sucked.
"I'm not saying you stink, I'm just saying you have the least appreciated scent of the Caribbean Sea."
"I'm not saying you're a Karen, I'm saying Peggy would say you're out of line."
"I'm not saying you are stupid, I'm saying that you'd be excellent in writing political speeches."
"I'm not saying you're dumb, I'm saying that universities want to pay you for your brain."
"I'm a proud, ignorant woman, and no one going to change that."
Texas moto ladies and gentlemen.
When I was young and heard that I did a double take and couldn't stop laughing. And I lived in NJ at the time
"Your stupidity and ignorance makes me feel better about my own ability to perceive reality." What? It's a compliment!
I've started rewatching king of the hill because of you. I laughed out loud in season 2 when hank caught Louanne and Buckley in bed together and Hank was like "I don't have time right now, you 2 take turns kicking each others asses!"
They did the script perfect. We get to watch Peggie fumble around trying to prove something she is 100% sure about. Brought better jokes that the usual ones
Insult disguised as complement: I love the anger in your voice, it shows how passionate you are about this.
"I wish getting a job interview/job was that easy". I can relate, it's probably because we aren't cute girls with big...personalities.
Believe me shady you won’t be rid of the grandmas any time soon
I can't believe they actually went through with killing that guy, like think about that Luanne and Peggy canonically witnessed a man die in a slaughter house for pigs
One of my crowning achievements in slyly telling someone they are stupid: Playing magic the gathering at a tournament against an opponent I did not generally get along with. He tried talking about quantum theory very poorly with me and when he asked what I thought I just responded: "those who think they understand quantum theory, know nothing about quantum theory" he took it as a compliment.
Also Michael Keaton absolutely nailed this character on this guest appearance.
You're not weak, you're just a wimp, it's a compliment, because it's based on your life choices and not natural ability, you have potential to be very strong.
There I did it, do I get a reward?
Jesus christ I forget all about this episode. That ending made so me uncomfortable, the poor crazy bastard had a single moment of sanity where his real self surfaced only to be impaled by a metal spike. Live by the pork, die by the pork I guess.
Probably should of kept him insane if he was going to die only a couple seconds later after he came back to his senses ....so we don't feel bad for him
I think you could see the Trip part of the story tying in to the Peggy part as them both wanting to control Luannes life for her, so it's less about Peggy learning to be less controlling and more Luanne learning to say no when someone trys to decide who she's going to be for her.
Trip is voiced by Michael Keaton! I just realized that nearly every guest actor on the show ends up being an antagonist.
King of the hill kills a lot of people off for such a family friendly show...
You know that’s Michael Keaton playing Tripp Larson, right? Small wonder he’s so unhinged, he’s played by Batman and Beetlejuice!
Surprised Tripp never tried to marry Luanne for a green card thing.
@@KittyMonk why would he need to exactly?
@@jacobshore5115 in the movie and the musical, that’s why he tries to marry Lydia, since then he gets to be human. In the musical, he tries to phrase it as a “green card thing” because he doesn’t consider it a real marriage, more akin to a transaction.
@@KittyMonk oh, right! Never saw the musical so I guess I wouldn’t know. (Really want to see it though! Alex Brightman seems pretty awesome!)
@@jacobshore5115 totally recommend! It’s awesome! Would’ve made for a great cartoon or CW show though!
Hey Shady, if you want an insult that doesn't sound like one, you only need one word.
Interesting.
If you pause before saying it, and do so with a different tone, it will confuse people.
"That outfit is. . . Interesting." That kind of thing.
Another way to use it, someone reponds after being asked a question and just say, "hmm interesting".
I do this!! 😂😂
I dunno. To me it just sounds transparent and smug. Not confusing or even subtle.
@@sitcomchristian6886
All depends on delivery.
The complimentary insult is good, but my all time favorite?
_"Your mother has a job and is a respected member of the community."_
I have probably seen ur king of the hill videos 30x each and I laugh at every joke or at least smile!
There's ways of calling someone Ignorant without being so... blunt. Naive. Or just couch the word ignorant with language that points out that it's not willful ignorance.
I don't think ignorant is a bad word, and think we sould not treat it as such. Ignorant means you don't know anything yet. It does not mean your stupid, and thus cannot be taught, backwards and thus know a lot of incorrect information, ect. It's a neutral word, adn should be treated as such.
Ignorance is when you're not aware of something. By that definition, everyone is ignorant to varying degrees because we can't be all knowing. Therefore, knowledge is a measure of how ignorant someone is: the less ignorant, the more knowledgeable and vice versa. I agree that stupidity is an overused term that is often confused with ignorance. If you call someone stupid for being ignorant, you just insulted every person on the planet (including yourself). Where ignorance requires not knowing, stupidity does require one to know. You know that what you're about to do or say, or not do or not say (or whatever) is not in your best interest -- you know that the potential for harm here exists, and yet, you ignore your better judgement (and maybe that of others) and do it anyway. That is stupidity. Highly intelligent people, even the smartest among us, can be fucking idiots if they keep doing things that harm themselves for whatever reasons that they have.
@@mycoffeequest6634 I'd argue stupidity has more to do with. An inability or unwillingness to think through or learn from your actions. Ignorance implies one can learn, but hasn't yet. Stupidity implies one can't or I'd argue more commonly refuses to learn.
@@patrickbuckley7259 Honestly this was my understanding of ignorant vs stupid too.
I recently wrote an essay about how the word "ignorant" is commonly used improperly. It's refreshing to see that I'm not the only one who sees that it isn't an insult and rather just a fact. Nobody knows everything about everything, and everyone is born ignorant, period. The smartest people that have ever lived, or will ever live, were born as slobbering infants who can't help but vomit all over themselves from time to time.
A good way to get someone you hate to be nice to you and start over thinking on everyone else is suck it up for one pleasant interaction and end it with “ya know Im not sure why everyone complains about you, you’re a good dude” and just try and never talk to em again you’ll see a noticeable change in them
You don't have anger issues you just have alot of passion
Some trivia for this episode:
Trip is voiced by Michael Keaton who's known for his comedic role in Beetlejuice and dramatic role in Tim Burton's Batman films.
The episode name is the title of a George Bernard Shaw play, "Pygmalion"
The Episode is known as the darkest episode of King Of The Hill. It was originally made for Season 5 as a Halloween Special, but was delayed and held back by Fox twice until season 7 for unknown reasons (Potentially to the graphic nature of the episode)
This is also one of the only times a character has died in an episode. Debbie Grund accidentally shot and killed herself off screen, Buckley was killed in a propane explosion, Pops died of a heart attack, Jim suffered a stroke, and Cotton died as a result of a fall and passing on in a hospital.
However, Trip and Buckley suffered possibly the most brutal deaths. Trip's body was implied to be bloody and mangled, and Buckley's body was so mutilated from the explosion, Dale immediately puked upon peeking into the casket to see if he really was dead.
It's unknown why Trip didn't just immediately roll off the machine after seeing the spike. He may have been in too much shock or unable to react fast enough.
Its also strange how Peggy and Luanne calmly talk after witnessing Trip's death. There should also have been an emergency shut-off device on the control panel, seeing how an accident could very likely happen on the machine.
Considering that the controls did not seem to do any thing, it is most likely that Trip tampered with them earlier.
There's a rumor that in the first airing of this episode at the end; Trip's corpse could be seen in the background on a hook, although evidence of the original airing not having it prove this being a hoax [1].
When Hank says "A horse's ass", the first part sounds like it was an audio cut from the rest of the sentence, almost like a rerecording over what was supposed to be said.
Also Peggy and Luanne could have rushed to save him running up to the belt and pulling him off of it. Common sense. Run up to the belt and snatch one of them off. They let him die and it's wild it happened that way.
I generally bottle up my passive aggressive thoughts since they don't accomplish anything, but as long as you're asking for them:
"I've always found this topic boring, it's impressive how much time you've spent thinking about it!"
"Wow, most people would be miserable if they were you, but I'm glad you seem happy that way!"
"Doing that? At your age? Wow, your dedication is amazing!"
"I've always thought clothes like those were old and tacky, but you really bring the most out of them!"
"Oh, this is the thing you've been working on? Wow! You can really learn a lot from this! I bet your next one will be much better!"
"We appreciate you here! Since you're never busy, we can always rely on you to be available when we need you!"
"Of course I was paying attention! It's not often you seem like you've thought about something this much!"
Horrifically this is the first episode of koth I EVER saw as a child and it scared me so badly I couldn't see a glimpse of any episode of koth for years
The way he pathetically resigns, "Life is a series of compromises" has haunted me my whole life.
6:52 Shady's reaction to his own example is just GOLD
