no they're about 50, you figure they were about 20 in 1990 around there, plus 30 years, it's pretty simple math, I'm sure there were a good amount that were 30 but most were 20s
I did this for my stepfather. He wasn't as bitter as Cotton, but he was at times physically abusive. But he did have some good qualities, and I have a few good memories with him. When he passed we scattered his ashes in a creek he always enjoyed fishing. Still dealing with some of the trauma he gave me, but hey, I hope he's somewhere better.
You're so strong. Abuse and neglect are confusing because a parental figure of any kind is supposed to teach and raise and nurture you and make you feel safe. A lot of people are just angry confused kids trying to raise kids up in a big angry confused world. You're strong for being able to have the outlook you do and I'm proud of how far you've come. You survived and the hardships will make you wiser, still you never deserved it. You're a good person and there's love and room for you and your feelings in this world
Millenials are more likely helping out with the War in Ukraine 🇺🇦. I mean some Gen Z might be there as well but it's not likely because current enlistment numbers are low.
I always wonder how the owner found out unless hank was honest and told him offscreen that he flushed the ashes or they did some sort of DNA test or worked backwards from the new name on the toiler
@@ricardomartinez8430 Hank already asked the bar owner and he engraved his father’s full name on the wooden part of the toilet. It probably wouldn’t be too hard to track Hank down.
I think it was rather generous of Hank to do all this for his abusive father. If it were me, I would not only not do any of those tasks, I would get rid of everything that reminds me of cotton. Ever picture, every recording, every award or document with his name on it. Let cotton be forgotten.
Yeah, What kind of Misogynistic jackass like him, not Only lying about the fact he went to the West side of Europe, AND the Pacific, but also gave Hank a horrible life, do anything nice than torment his family?
WW2 veterans, Vietnam veterans, Dessert Storm vets and even a Grenada veteran. But no mention of Korean war veterans. The same with when in another episode they talked about the veterans of foreign war merging with Vietnam veterans but nothing about merging with Korean war veterans. They really are the forgotten war. They talk about how the vfw ignored the Vietnam veterans for decades but said nothing about Korean war veterans.
@@cypher160manny2 Well, to be fair, there was obviously more than one "Fatty" given the two listed on the toilet. There's no telling how many different "Fatties" Cotton served with.
When I saw Irwin Linker, I thought to myself that this name kinda almost reminded me of my great grandfather Irvin Luker. He died 12 years ago, and I truly miss him so much. 😢 May my great grandfather rest in peace.
This is random but the birds at the end are so fucking accurate to the birds here in texas i have the same bird outside my window. It just caught me offguard lol
The hell, dude - put his ashes out in the forest somewhere. That's what I would want. Put my ashes out where they'll be fertilizer for some trees, or some ferns, some bushes, whatever. Especially if it was a wilderness I previously roamed. My remains then return to a familiar patch of wilderness that my descendants will roam, to hunt and fish and whatever else.
My mom and me were like water and oil 🛢️ but we had our moments and a few things we have in common and/or like but we did love each other sometime parents are complicated but we still love them and they still love us
This one hit me way too hard. We're pretty deep in with the veteran community in my area, and I know all about the lack of representation for Korean War folks. To the point that you can't even show certain people M*A*S*H, despite it being how a lot of us get our ideas about the war, and also that it was just a great show overall. No, denial runs deep. It's sad when you get down to the nitty gritty of it.
you know they're doing a time lapse king of the hill where bobby is a adult now and hank and his friends are much older now. i wonder if bill will be in the show as due to his health i would be surrpised if he made it to 2023. or if dale would have passed away from cancer. and it's only hank and boomahuer.
If I'm not mistaken there's an episode where Dale goes to the hospital it shows he's actually very healthy despite how much cigarettes he smokes. That aside there are some people wondering if Luanne and Lucky are going to make appearances considering both of their voice actors are dead.
@@joeswanson733 pick _literally_ anyone else other than the man you cheated on your husband for 14 years with. Heck, I'd be more satisfied if she hooked up with Boomhauer.
It’s true that veterans from different wars and engagements would fight. Hell, WW2 veterans kept Vietnam veterans out of the VFW en masse until the early 80s
Probably because they didn't want to lock the King of the Hill timeline down. The entire show is supposed to happen within about three years, but obviously took much longer in real life. But they wanted the people watching the show to feel like it was taking place in the current year. Plus they didn't want to try to figure out how the timeline of each episode fits together. So better just to leave off the date.
🤨🤨🤨🤨Hey were are the Korean War veterans? Oh right it’s a forgotten war something the writers would automatically forget easily 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️ Dammit writers of king of the hill🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
- No smoking
- No refunds for Ms.Pac-Man
- NO WAR DEBATES!
I can't read
NOT MY RUUUULES!!!
You would think “NO WAR DEBATES” would be top of the list.
Literally 1984
Hell with the rules
Crazy to imagine that most desert storm veterans are over 60
And that nearly all WW2 vets are dead now
It was 30+ years ago.
no they're about 50, you figure they were about 20 in 1990 around there, plus 30 years, it's pretty simple math, I'm sure there were a good amount that were 30 but most were 20s
My Dad's a Desert Storm veteran and he's 58. So he's got another 2 years until his 60th.
The Iraq vets are gunning for 40 now.

Respect!
Good for trying to put it behind you.

I'm just happy you are able to realize the he was wrong, while not letting him consume you

Let's not forget that Cotton was accepted to be buried in the Texas State Cemetery. Only to end up flushed down a tolite.
Not any toilet, General Pattons toilet
Ter-let
I think it was just his tombstone
Probably did it to spite Peggy
R.I.P Johnny Hardwick.
Rest in Dew
This scene basically represents the battle of the silent, boomers, and generation X.
don't forget the Greatest Genration, they were between the Silent and Baby Boomers
The greatest generation came before the silent generation
Next up is millennials with iraq
Silent was Vietnam and Korea. GG was WW2. Generation X was Desert Storm and partly War on Terror

2:11 nice touch, Bill
The important thing is that the whole platoon is together once again
Cotton got his shins back
The way I would send off Dale Gribble too 😢 RIP Dale Gribble 🫡
Then the Chimney Pipe Bar sends a letter to Hank to reimburse them for $300 for an unclogged toilet lol
Cotton truly got the last laugh.

He did flush him down the toilet
@@matthewlessley4807 At Cottons request. I would have thrown the urn away.
@@jonbilgutay2 Hank's always been a bigger man than Cotton; that's kind of the whole point.

Hell yeah. Same, I’dve done one better and cut all ties with the bastard long before he even died

The forgotten war.
We fought a war in Korea?
@@defective7340yeah it was called the forgotten war
I like that bill Was there. Since both were army guys. So for a fellow solider to give him the army salute 🫡
Jokes aside this actually is a pretty touching moment
🫡🇺🇸 rip cotton hill
Hank is just like Cotton and has his own Stinky Fatty and Brooklyn
Bill is Obviously fatty
Boomhauer Brooklyn cause no one understands what he’s saying.
Which means dale is stinky.
It’s hard for Hank to express himself when it comes to his feelings, so him saying how much spending time with the boys means to him took a lot
Platoon off to Japan 1943. Freaking badasses. 0:29 “not my rules” 😅😅
I just noticed Topsy's name above Cotton's
Also fattys who cotton says died in the war but he didnt
@@cypher160manny2 Think that was more Cottons memory going combined with him knowing they all wanted to go out fighting instead of in a hospital bed
@@cypher160manny2 there’s more than one Fatty
@@cypher160manny2there was a lot of fatties and stinkies

Rest in peace Cotton he got his shins back joining Topsy, Stinky and Fatty in heaven
There were others too, including the originals. Those names were more like titles than mere personal nick names honestly
It would have been a miracle of there was a WW1 veteran at that bar.
Since this is the late 90s, ww1 vets were still around, but basically like ww2 vets now, so their could have been
RIP Cotton Hill The Father of hank hill
How much I love this show
0:46- Did they put the date in later?
This is random but the birds at the end are so fucking accurate to the birds here in texas i have the same bird outside my window. It just caught me offguard lol
This was my favourite scene in the whole series
I loved how in the end hank learned him and cotton had one thing is common: they both loved their friends.
Theres a Ms. Pacman everywhere.
It is a quality video game.

0:06 Boomers were the first generation to smoke blunts.
Those vietnam vets got royaly screwed over
From what I heard, the army wouldn't take Hank because of his narrow urethra. What did that have to do with anything?
It's a shame we didn't get to share the horrors of war together.

“I can’t read”😂
I know cotton and Hank had a bad father son relationship but c'mon flushing his ashes down the toilet😩😭

🫡🫡🫡
Average night at rhe VFW far as I can tell
I can't read!
I'am lose my dad 2 Years
Wait. I thought he had his own plot that Peggy helped him get…
Name of this episode
Serves me right for giving George S Patton the bathroom key
“Platoon off to Japan 1943” some artist or script writer really doesn’t know anything about WW2 or military unit structures lol
This was probably how they called themselves, not their official name
ok edgy nerd kid
@@_NIKOS9_NIKOS that’s a helluva reach and you know it
Meh, one of those small little grievances we can look past I think. Especially in the wider meaning of the scene.
Why didn't they put his passing year like all the others?
Probably because they didn't want to lock the King of the Hill timeline down. The entire show is supposed to happen within about three years, but obviously took much longer in real life. But they wanted the people watching the show to feel like it was taking place in the current year. Plus they didn't want to try to figure out how the timeline of each episode fits together.

Im assuming the one with the blue hat was a Korean war vet

Why have a bathroom window right in front of the toilet where people
Can see you shit if they walk by? That’s gross
Hank could say no to this and just though cotton in trash
What happened to Cotton Hill?
I'm afraid he passed away. Sorry you had to hear it from me.
Wait. I thought Cotton was buried in that military cemetery?
He requested this kind of
He wants his tomb there
But sometimes the body will not for other reasons
Bill never were in vietnam
i cried :(
