New pet peeve

I have noticed a trend in waterfowl related articles and ads that feature angry looking guys glaring at the camera, looking oh so serious. What the hell is this all about? I think it started with that dork Phil Robertson, the self styled "Duck Commander." Lighten up guys, it ain't combat. Its supposed to be fun.
 
That's been a big pet peeve of mine for a long time I think it all started with the Under Armor ads which is why I will never wear that crap Then the Benelli ads came along which are just a total joke Those guys are always posed with all the crap on and fake snow and water pouring off their band laden lanyards Everything is so EXTREME!

How about the hardcore guitar riffs on all the hunting shows That started out with Powerhouse Productions out of Arkansas(big surprise) They do 5 or 6 shows and apparently other production houses like it because lots of shows are doing that now

How do you like my wife's computer? No commas or periods Neato!
 
Yep, it isn't a war against the ducks. They do need to lighten up a little.
I think that is why I like primos shows so much.

Hell, I see it in a lot of pics here..it's like they just said "Jesus Christ! Take the friggen picture already!". ..or they just swam out and retrieved the duck and were gasping for breath. That's why I like pics of kids and ducks..every one has a big old "glad to be here" grin on their face.
 
Seems like every time I take my son hunting he gets this same angry scowl on his face.
He is still maintaing his grades at Auburn. 4 A's and a C last semester. His mom and I are very proud of him.

easy now , I look like that after just about every shot !! Except when I get lucky and actually hit a bird......THEN I grin !!

on the Under armor , I think mine defective , It doesn't look anything like it does on the mannakin !

Robert , If your son is sitting where I think he is I know why he's Grin'in . =p
Hows your season goin?
 
Is the scowl worse than 5 grown men hi fiving over 20 ducks coming in and 2 getting killed? Then the guy with the dog walks out to the bird, his dog picks it up and he bends over to take a picture? Or the guys that traveled half way across the country to hunt with some guide service, and then are surprised the sun came up and its all worth it at that point? Whut about the guys that wear their waders into the store for a sasuage and biscuit and its 30% of the show? Face it, hunting shows are goofy... we all probably look goofy at some point during our hunt. Well, I don't, but Im guessing most of ya'll do. Enjoy them for what they are, and don't think about them too much.

My personal favorite is 3 guys on camera, and another 3 guys hidden. Every bunch of ducks gets 7 or 8 killed out of it, but the extra shots audio are edited out. Me personally, I dont want to see 20 ducks come in, one get scratched down on a 3rd shot going out... I see nuff of that in my pit. I wanna see ducks fall.. I wanna see em get chenny'ed. I wanna see slow motion replays of them twisting and flipping over. I wanna see them come apart like a firestone truck tire on a summer afternoon. So I pretend 3 men really could shoot and kill all those ducks or geese.

Why is everybody in a porn movie (well, at least the chicks) hot? Cause who wants to see ugly people getting it on? Quit thinking and enjoy. travis
 
While we are on porn movies..(nice segway huh?) Why do all these "hot" women sound like Ham-Chuk from the John Wayne movie "The Green Berets" ? I mean..is this speech impediment a birth defect or is it caused by work related repitition like carpal tunnel syndrome?
 
Yea he is in the "Tree Stand Blind". So far it sucks. I have only been to the promised land twice. Since Christmas all the rain has the birds scattered. Very few of the club members are getting much shooting. Mexico was a blast this year, we did well down there. I will be going over for the week on Friday, staying through the 20th. If you can slip off for a day or two let me know. No promises on the birds but the scenery hasn't changed!

harker... Im wif sutton... they're hot chicks getting it on, and your worried about dialect?

Everytime rosie comes on tv, my wife reminds me of what real lesibans look like. Nobody would ever want to see girl on girl action if that was the case!

Ever played the porno name game? Your first pets name is your first name, and the street you grew up on is the last name. I'm Tami Arlington. travis
 
Yep, I accidently had the sound up once..that's when I garnered a great appreciation for the "acting" that goes on...WOW! The memory those actors must have to remember their lines....and make them believable.
 
That would make me Stanley Elmwood.....I would assume that I'd be the guy with the wood that never got hard.

When my buddy Josh told me years ago that he was considering quiting his job, leaving his wife and becoming a porn star I offered a name.....Ram E Roadhouse. It stuck. I even saved that name in my cell phone.

My wife has been on bed rest for 8 weeks and on the no "fun" orders for 4 months and I have to stay home and take care of her and the kids so if I watch a porn movie my heads will explode. I have to be very careful about where I travel and what words I say. In fact, this post is killing me. I have to go. Remember that Eddie Murphy line in 48 hours when he's talking to the girl at the bar....that's me.

I just realized you said "first pet". Okay, then mine would be Maggie Elmwood. So, if you make the logical adjustment to masculinize the name....it'd be Magnum Elmwood.

MUCH BETTER!
