It's just so hard to believe this dumb*ss is yelling this to people inside the Taco Bell. You'd have to come from a f'ed up family to think this is something you should share with anyone, much less yell through a crowded restaurant window.

It reminds me of people at work that talk about things most people would be ashamed of. One day I heard a girl tell someone about a plumber unstopping her drain and then telling her she shouldn't flush condemns down it. That was in our lunchroom, during lunch. Another girl I worked with told the two female salespeople on our team, and us two salesmen, that she was tired of her boyfriend ending every sex act on her head. This was in our weekly meeting.

Wife and I watched this because of this thread. I had always heard of it and wanted to watch it just never have.

It’s pretty eye opening. The worst part is the kids running around adapting to that fricked up life as being normal. Kirk’s kid constantly saying he wanted to go shoot that man in the face….he’s gonna end up in prison for murder eventually.

I did read on Wiki that the kid that got sentenced to 50 years was released in 2021. His mom was crying about how he isn’t eligible for parole for 25 years and will be 47 when he gets out, so how did he only serve 12 years (movie was in 2009)??

It also amazed me how more of them weren’t in prison. They clearly all do and sell drugs, along with all kinds of other illegal shite. And Kirk’s baby was born with fricking drugs in her system. How did she not get into any trouble for that?


The scariest part is their vote counts the same as mine does. And I say that knowing they likely vote similarly to me.

Just finished this for the first time. I think this may be the most entertaining 1.5 hours of anything I've ever seen in my life.

I'm trying to figure out who my favorite "character" was. It's like trying to choose a favorite child. Impossible.

My parents are from WV, the met in Fla in the late 50s.(not that that matters just interesting they meet away from there. Anyway, one of my grandparents were crazy dirt poor and didn't have indoor plumbing until the late 70s. They lived deep in a holer and the area was (until i last visited in the 90s) very depressed.

I have/had 24 aunts and uncles. 13 on fathers side and 11 on my mom's. They had kids to be workers. My dad left home at 16 when my gdad told him to put the mule up because it was too hot and get a hoe.

That area the avg person had like a 5th grade completion rate in the 90s. No industry at all, coal money and welfare were it.

Until you get west into the Rocky Mts, it is IMO the most naturally beautiful area in the USA. I was back in that area about 8 years ago and it is still desolate.
