I Present 'Swanson Pyramid of Greatness'

Ron Swanson’s Pyramid of Greatness…just because.

Here is the text:

 Honor: If you need it defined, you can never attain it.
America: The only country that matters. If you want to experience other “cultures,” use an atlas, or a ham radio.
Buffets: Whenever available. Choose quantity over quality.
Weapons
Woodworking
Welfare Avoidance
Teamwork: Work together as if your life depends on it… IT DOES.
Selfishness: Take what’s yours.
Haircuts: 3 acceptable styles: high and tight, buzzed cut, crew cut.
Greatness Itself: The best revenge.
Discipline: The ability to repeat a boring thing over and over again.
Attire: Shorts over 6″ are capri pants, Shorts under 6″ are European.

Skim Milk*: Avoid it.
C0ow Protein- Always beats turkey meat
Pig Protein
Chicken Protein
Romantic Love
Deer Protein
Fish (Sport Only): It’s practically a vegetable.
Intensity: Give 100%. 110% is impossible. Only idiots recommend that.
Torso: Should be thick and impenetrable.
Old Wooden Sailing Ships: They’re beautiful.
B.O.: Cultivating a manly musk puts your opponents on notice.
Stillness: Don’t waste energy moving unless necessary.
Skim Milk*: That’s right. It’s on here twice. Avoid It.
Cursing: There is only one bad word. Taxes. If any other word is good enough for sailors it’s good enough for you.
Friends: One to Three is sufficient.

Poise: Sting like a bee. Do not float like a butterfly. That’s ridiculous
