I guess Darky and I are rednecks because there is no way in hell he would have talked to her like that. There wouldnt have been much table left when I was done.

Personally I'm surprised that the word "defecate" was in the "redneck" guys vocabulary.
I decided to watch the entire episode to experience both the douchebag and the stupid.
I personally think he's funny. Call it what you want but I see it as comedy and nothing more. If your so called "elitists" are laughing AT me than that's fine too.
I'm a simple man that has trouble with big words too. Does that make me a Redneck?
I don't have a fancy job, a nice car, or a large home but what I have I'm proud of. Does that make me a redneck?
I think guys like that are self centered, anal retentive assholes.
It seems to me that this isn't so much a case of the guy being a bad husband, but just not being a very nice guy. In fact, he totally missed the point of this exercise.
The point of this show is to see how other people who are very different from you live. It can help you find the best parts of what you have and also ways to improve on what you have. Sometimes you don't know what you are missing. This guy went into this scenario thinking he is better than her. At that point, he decided that nothing she had to offer could possibly benefit him or his family. On a similar note, if he saw points that could be improved upon with his house guest, he had a responsibility to create an agenda to address ways to share the aspects of his life that could benefit her and her family. Instead, the guy was a complete jerk and found every way to avoid participating in any activities. His defense mechanism was to verbally insult her.
Maybe in his mind he was trying to snap her out of the habits that he thought she could do without. In my mind that is verbal abuse. There is a way to intervene and discuss issues that arise and there is another which is just an insult meant to hurt someone's feelings. He was playing to the camera and using the situation to put her down so she would not be able to influence his home life in any way. He had no interest in the actual wife swap exercise and what it could do for him and his family. In essence, he had no business being on the show if he wasn't going to give it a try.
The guy is a jerk. The world is full of them.
The kids did actually pull something out of the wife swap though. They learned at a young age just how important education is.
And it was nice to see the stupid people change their diet... though I would've preferred them to eat themselves out of existence. Does that make me an asshole? Certainly does.
We're to the point where Natural Selection is no longer doing what its meant to do. People are supposed to die of stupidity, laziness and being overall failures. Obesity is a disease (its been a study and they did actually find a strain of the common cold that causes obesity (AD-36)), but that doesn't mean that natural selection shouldn't be allowed to take place. If modern medicine weren't so much about prolonging life (in some cases past the point it should, to where the person is in so much pain and they want to just go (I've seen it happen, I was not a fan) then population levels would remain at a tolerable level... there would be less starving people in the world. Aside from that society as a whole would be more intelligent because the stupid people would simply naturally select themselves out of existence.
True about natural selection. Of course this is totally contradicted by the fact that in much of the world there is no modern medical care and obesity is only a dream. So if you are going to talk about Natural selection of a population you might want to think about the entire population and not disregard the majority of people.
LMAO I started laughing out loud when I read this.
I dont considered my self a redneck or uneducated, although to most uppidy ups I probably am.
One thing I do know is that I am obese, overwieght, fat.
Now to assume I am stupid, lazy, or any other diragatory term because of this is pretty ignorant.
Please just keep in mind most of the same rules that keep me from killing my self from pure stupidy also stop me from handing you your ass and taking your shit, just because I can. You talk about survival of the fittest, but I have a feeling your opinion of your self is a tad high.
May be a bad example but meh its what comes to mind when I hear the fairy in teh clip degrading the woman. Regardless of her education or status, he had to make an obvious effort to belittle her. The same rules that allow him to be an ass would stop me from putting him in his place.
And although I am not a fan of "stupid" people myself I dont think where you live, your education, or your weight, really come into play. I know plenty of stupid folks who dont think thier shit stinks either.
All that said i watched 1 clip and to be honest I wouldnt be caught dead watching this garbage and stopped there, but regardless of how awefull the show portayed either party to be what I saw was a douche trying to stroke his ego by belittling somone he felt he could get away with it with. Again I think his opion of himself is a tad high.
I give people respect, no doubt. If I had been in his shoes there would've been one major difference, I wouldn't have told her that she was a fat ****ing retard to her face... I would've waited til after filming was over and done it then. I would've respected her and the rules of the show while I was on it, its all about trying different things.
Then again, I'd also never agree to be on a show like that.
