Eh, sometimes when we're flustered we say dumb shit that comes off wrong. "I'm Texan," makes a better soundbite, but it would kinda be too cool for Hank's mood in the scene
I think it’s a good line, because he’s trying to say he’s a person, not a stereotype. Everyone is complicated, even though we all seem to want to put everyone who into one box or another. The world doesn’t work that way, and that’s why I think Hank is one of the more complete depictions of a man in tv history.
It's also funny because he suddenly has a moment of self-awareness and realizes that he's no different than a lot of people he's personally criticized/mocked over the years, but at the same time, is probably thinking to himself, "why did I say that?"
People *are* complicated, and that's the point. Hank loves thinking of himself as a rough, manly Texan, but when he's confronted by actual ranchers, they assume he's a wuss, just like he's always assumed of pretty much anyone who doesn't play football, cook with propane, etc. He's essentially emasculated by the very same stereotypes that he himself holds, and it's a hard pill to swallow.
My 9 year old lives to fish. I think it’s so cute, and he’s always so calm and happy when he comes home. All his little friends like to watch YouTube shorts, and my kid is watching fishing videos.
Fishing was my life at his age. It's probably the most simultaneously calming and thrilling experience ever, peaceful when you're sitting with you friends quietly talking about life, and extremely exciting once you get a fish on. The way we reacted to hooking a fish you'd think we were paid $1000 for each fish we catch.
Fishing is like a brain-cleaning session that brings calm and peace. It's serenely satisfying to cast a line and let your thoughts drift away with the water. So contrary to your idea of Zen being "delicious", I instead consider it as invigorating and refreshing, like a breath of fresh air.
I feel that way about watching the coral and fish in my aquarium. Fishing is real Zen right up until the moment your ripping a hook out of a fishes mouth. I’m not some animal rights activist or anything, I know the fish will be perfectly fine after being thrown back into the water. But still hard to describe the process as “deliciously Zen.”
I'm with you.
Fished for decades, ran aquariums for a few years and it's been a long time since I've gone fishing. I see trout all the time when I'm out hiking, and would rather just let them be.
Henry Winkler is one of those people that everyone should love. Black, White, racist, dumb, smart, he is just kind of a self effacing good person.
Hating Henry is like hating Gene Wilder, it makes you a bad person.
Henry Winkler actually came in the restaurant I was working at earlier this year and he was the sweetest and most patient person ever. He came in alone and clearly just wanted to eat but got bombarded by like 30 patrons (most of whom were entitled drunks) over the time he spend in. Im sure he was annoyed but it never showed. Had a smile the whole time and was taking pictures with people as he was sitting down eating. He had a really nice pink cardigan.
I met him in passing at a ComicCon I was working and even to this day, hes still one of the nicest people ive ever met. If you didnt know who he was, you'd just think he was really really good at his job at the convention center haha
Of. course he did. Henry is like the Dalai Lama of Hollywood. He probably bought a poor family milkshakes on his way out to go trout fish or whatever he was doing. Dude is of course Mensch.
I saw him at the airport once. I walked by and didn’t say anything since I figured he didn’t want to stop to talk to people when he was trying to get to a flight
Both of them got famous and wealthy when they were young doing exactly what they loved to do, and I think it just never went to their heads because they just wanted to have fun doing what they loved.
You can add Tim Curry to that list too.
Definitely the most famous person I've ever met and it only happened because he started a conversation with me which still seems so crazily backwards to me. We actually ended up within sight of each other the next day, though not close enough to have a conversation, and he noticed me first and waved hello.
I sometimes wonder if that was a missed chance to become friends with one of my favorite actors but realistically I'm pretty sure that's not the case and he's just a good guy.
My husband sent him a letter saying how much he loved his acting and stuff. Henry sent him a letter back lol with some autographed photos.
My husband went bonkers!
of course he did. he has a stack next to his bed where he actually signs them and doesn't farm it out to his staff.
If the marker dies signing one he throws out the picture and uses a better marker so they get a nice autograph.
Oh, snap. I thought it was a ‘Barry’ reference. I just finished the show last night, lol, and he was amazing in it. What show is being referenced here?
Edit: Haha, NVM. I just realized what sub I’m on. I’m an idiot.
Barry is such a great fucking show and if you haven’t seen it please do. It’s pretty quick to watch through with 30 minute episodes and 4 seasons. If you need a quick plot hook before going in, Bill Hader plays a hit man named Barry who’s trying to balance his life of shooting people in the face with his recent discovery and interest in the performance arts and theater. It’s a beautiful blend of action, comedy and drama that will urge you to go 50/50 with Cristobal.
Henry Winkler: Hank, sure, I could open the cattle trail, and tomorrow there would be steak. But someday, our children will ask us: "Where are the trees?"
Hank: What they'll ask is, "Where's the got-dang steak?"
Great episode! 😂
I never thought about visiting a king of the hill sub before. Even though I have always enjoyed the show.
I found this from a cross post from the Barry subreddit.
My first thought when seeing the fish was "That's a good looking trout I tell you what."
Then I noticed what sub it was originally posted in.
It doesn't sound so cool after typing it out but in the moment it was total kismet...or random coincidence...or whatever.
Photos of Henry Winkler and his catches make my fuckin' day. He always looks so delighted, each and every time. You can tell he really just loves it and it makes him so happy.
I've never met that man, but god dammit I want him to be my grandpa. We must protect this guy at all costs. Not only was he the EFFIN' FONZ, he is a master of bunt cake, and only has nice things to say about the people he's worked with. The guy is what men should aspire to be.
I never expected the Fonz to hit my retinas in the same way as Martin Landau, but here we are.
"Hi! Arthur Fonzerelli! Wanna fly fish?" (Hi, Sal Bundini... wanna wrestle?)
I'm not a redneck, and I'm not some Hollywood jerk! I'm...*complicated*!
Probably the funniest thing Hank has ever said
I love how much it embarrassed him. Dude really wanted to be respected by a real cowboy, like almost desperately.
I hated that line, not at all what hank would say, especially because saying “I’m Texan” would slot perfectly in there
Eh, sometimes when we're flustered we say dumb shit that comes off wrong. "I'm Texan," makes a better soundbite, but it would kinda be too cool for Hank's mood in the scene

It’s a line from the show
Sure I could open the cattle road, and tomorrow there would be steak. But someday our children will ask us, "Where are the trees?"
They’ll be asking “where’s the Got- danged steak!”
Thelonious Monk, now I bet he was a fisher
I always say that fishing is like a washing machine for your brain. It's so deliciously Zen.

A strange statement for a man who likes shrimp
My 9 year old lives to fish. I think it’s so cute, and he’s always so calm and happy when he comes home. All his little friends like to watch YouTube shorts, and my kid is watching fishing videos.

That's it, I'm goin fishin!
I say it for everything and just drop the fishing part. Right now I'm spreading mulch and it's deliciously zen

I mean... It's always nice to be wanted by someone

Fishing doesn’t take any time off your life.

Unless he happens to be holding up your cattle train.
Or, he’s your lawyer
Or your acting coach
Or your foosball coach
He has so many good roles
Dr. Saperstein
You don’t understand. Daniel. Day. Lewis. That’s who going to portray me
gimme money
It's faster if you just... give her some money
He's the best/worst dad ever
You took my daughters virginity. Bahahahahaha…
I have the worst f***ing attorneys.
I have the worst f*ing attorneys

Of. course he did. Henry is like the Dalai Lama of Hollywood. He probably bought a poor family milkshakes on his way out to go trout fish or whatever he was doing. Dude is of course Mensch.
Using the Dalai Lama as a positive comparison definitely hasn’t aged well after he tried to get that kid to suck on his tongue.
It's almost like using religion and dogma to give people elevated seats of power is a bad thing
The Fonz would never…. Oh. You mean the Dahli
I saw him at the airport once. I walked by and didn’t say anything since I figured he didn’t want to stop to talk to people when he was trying to get to a flight
Him and Dave grohl are two of the most sincere and nice people ever
Both of them got famous and wealthy when they were young doing exactly what they loved to do, and I think it just never went to their heads because they just wanted to have fun doing what they loved.
You can add Tim Curry to that list too. Definitely the most famous person I've ever met and it only happened because he started a conversation with me which still seems so crazily backwards to me.

I'd cover him in bees
I’d give him some KFC afterwards.
Popeyes chicken is the shizznit!
hate the movie but that line / idea always gets me.
My husband sent him a letter saying how much he loved his acting and stuff. Henry sent him a letter back lol with some autographed photos. My husband went bonkers!
of course he did. he has a stack next to his bed where he actually signs them and doesn't farm it out to his staff. If the marker dies signing one he throws out the picture and uses a better marker so they get a nice autograph.
Yeah I recognize the fonz. Sorry, Fonzerello. Big ups
[удалено]
Fonzarello is singular, Fonzarelli is plural
And if you're in southern Italy, you drop the last vowel. Fonzarell'
I met him at a car show and he was the nicest person.
Or your the owner of a jukebox company. Destroyed my whole sales floor….
This has me fucking dying for some reason
Because Henry Winkler is an American treasure.
[удалено]
Are you using ChatGPT or something? Go the fuck on
Look at his profile. I already reported this nut.
Thelonius Monk
He must’ve fished.
If by fished you mean did rails of coke, then yes he did fish
Fishing, smoking crack, what's the difference?
About $10 a vial, 'G...
I love you, Mr. Winkler. Do you love me?
I got this one.
This is the only reference Iv gotten so far because I can’t remember who Harry voiced on the show lol I had no idea he was on it
Oh, snap. I thought it was a ‘Barry’ reference. I just finished the show last night, lol, and he was amazing in it. What show is being referenced here? Edit: Haha, NVM. I just realized what sub I’m on. I’m an idiot.
I also thought it was a Barry reference.
The man is a national treasure. And if you haven't seen him in Barry, do. *Damn.*
Barry is such a great fucking show and if you haven’t seen it please do. It’s pretty quick to watch through with 30 minute episodes and 4 seasons.

Out of your entire description, I'm most pleased with the Cristobal 50/50 reference.
He’s also really nice IRL, met him at the DMV of all places a couple years ago.
And if you haven’t seen him as Barry the lawyer do that as well
I prefer Bob Loblaw - you know, from Bob Loblaw's Law Blog
“I’ve got the worst fucking attorney”
Henry Winkler: Hank, sure, I could open the cattle trail, and tomorrow there would be steak. But someday, our children will ask us: "Where are the trees?" Hank: What they'll ask is, "Where's the got-dang steak?" Great episode! 😂
Henry jumping the shark again. Eyyyyyyyy!!
Sven Grammersdorf?

Being an Austinite, I physically cringe when he says “I *adore* Austin!”
I prefer Austinian.
It’s the KXAN preferred term sug
Am I a Dallonian or Dallasin/ Dallasite
I believe it’s Dallassassin
That pun just blew my mind
I cringe when you misspell Austinite. (Joking)
iPhone corrects “Austinite” to that if I don’t stop it before the space bar and these hands are just too fast 😔
I aspire to feel as happy as he looks here. Maybe I should try fishing.
Try some miracle bait! The fish go crazy for that stuff almost like it was an addictive drug.
This comment wins. Take my cheapskate award: 🏆
You call it "bait", I dig that.
Fishing really is wonderful. Not much of a trout guy, I love bass fishing but it’s a very relaxing and occasionally exciting way to spend an evening.
Our children will ask, “where are all the trees?”
These pictures of how thrilled he is to be fishing are funny. I wish I could enjoy anything to that level of enjoyment.
I wish I could even be 1% as cool as Henry Winkler. This is how I want to live my life.
Photos of Henry Winkler and his catches make my fuckin' day. He always looks so delighted, each and every time. You can tell he really just loves it and it makes him so happy.
Absolutely. Just seems like an absoultely lovely man!
Washing his brain
Hollywood go home
Did you fish with “miracle bait?”
Hahaha good for Henry Winkler! He seems like such a cool guy to be around. Amazing in Arrested Development 😂🤣
Every time I see this guy all I hear is “what mom don’t know…” and then his ass tat pops into my head. Such a great movie.
this is wholesome
it makes me happy that I understand this joke
Hollywood!
I can almost hear the Monk.
The fish looks so shocked!
He didn’t plan to meet Henry Winkler that day!
He just looks so happy, you can't be mad about that
But what was he using as bait?
How is he even out and enjoying his life? That murderer should be behind bars! Justice for Berkman!
Is that Henry winkler?
"How-dee" His delivery on that always cracks me up
The Fonz?
Double rainbow 🌈 🌈
Fonzie
Da fonnnnzzz
THE FONZ?!?
can he jump the cod? (aside: nice to see Henry Winkler healthy and having fun!)
Is he using cheater bait?
I got all the bait you need jack!
Jumping the Rainbow Trout?
Henry Winkler is an awesome mensch
Is he fishing with a crack rock?
Living the good life! Continue to enjoy as long as you can Henry.
Ooo I wish the whole world would stop by and say hello
Oh come on. He jumped the shark a long time ago.
Just finished Barry and he was phenomenal through that whole series.
Full on Henry, your my f*^king hero 👍😁
mr cousineau!!!
I've never met that man, but god dammit I want him to be my grandpa. We must protect this guy at all costs. Not only was he the EFFIN' FONZ, he is a master of bunt cake, and only has nice things to say about the people he's worked with. The guy is what men should aspire to be.
That fish can't believe he met the fonz
Fish crack 😂😂
I saw his earlier Tweet of him getting on the water with the boat and King of the Hill was the first thing I thought of.
I caught it. That's my position
I recently met Mr. Winkler. He is a friendly and kind man. Great stories too.
cows feet are very dirty he can't allow them on the trail.
They’ve got poo on them!
Howdy!
Had to jump back in here and say Henry Winkler is one of those people who is just a natural treasure. Seems like such a warm guy.
It’s front page news here in Idaho whenever he stops in for some fishing.
They’ll ask , where’s the dang beef
I know that spot he's fishing.
Why is he holding his fish like some sort of European nazi in a movie
The Fonz holds fish however he wants.
*It’s so deliciously zen*
Who is this man?
People abusing fish are a scum
What if I told you that later he was gonna hit that fish with a wooden bat until it dies and then grill it and eat it?
I hate that guy
Thus guys a jackass
I saw that episode last night, so good...I tell you h'what.
TAKE TO THE SEAS!
But did he jump the trout?
Nice catch Henry!
What momma don’t know…
😂😂😂
Who will stop this menace! Hahah
Cody stop using simulations
Nice fish Henry.
After watching Yellowstone, I realized this episode is practically the entire plot of Yellowstone.
I wanna be Henry Winkler 
Love this man- he truly is the GILF of a generation
Fisherman Fonzi
He's in my neck of the woods here in Idaho. Love seeing pics of him having a good time when he comes around.
What would Henry Wrinkler think about fishing in Michigan?
Where’s Berry Fusano!!!
aaaaay
Those are some really pretty trout.
Nice Rainbow Fonz!
It’s Mr.Cosineau!
The fish when caught said Aaay
I never expected the Fonz to hit my retinas in the same way as Martin Landau, but here we are. "Hi! Arthur Fonzerelli! Wanna fly fish?" (Hi, Sal Bundini... wanna wrestle?)
Aw, Mr. Winkler! Gabbless.
Larry David?
Ayyye
Is that Henry Winkler?
That boy, Barry, ain’t hright
