In "The Dukes of Hazard", was Boss Hogg's dialog HTML encoded &.gt;&.gt;&.gt; ?

Either something got lost in the translation, or I'm being slow today.
Either way, someone's gonna have to explain that one to me.

It is relating to his characteristic speech tic.
But - the fact that it needed explaining means... it wasn't that good

Speech tic?
Are you sure that's not Roscoe?
|
|
|
|
|
Yeah - that sounds more likely. Let's go with Roscoe.

|
|
|
|
So, how then is Roscoe's dialog "HTML encoded &.gt;&.gt;&.gt;" ? I still don't get it...
|

I always thought that Roscoe was Coo, coo, coo...

"Indestructible" is a big word ... I know children that could break anything.
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

What even Tonka toys?

Piece of cake!
These kids could break Toyota Hilux pickups, and even Top Gear couldn't do that!

My younger brother was one of those children. Not a single toy that I had as a kid survived his attentions.
(Now that he's over 50, he's mellowed slightly )
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

Agree, I have one of those.
He called me a while back and was ranting about how my grandson had broken something that he considered unbreakable and I thought...there is justice in the universe.

Nothing is safe from deliberate destruction. It was meant in another way.
This[^] is one of the smallest collective pitch model helicopters. It's not so expensive and weighs only 39g, including the tiny battery. This small mass also makes it extremely nervous and even harder to fly than larger helicopters.
It's also 'indestructible'. Due to its weak motor and tiny weight, it can survive a crash without notable damage. Sometimes it's caught by grass and does not even hit the ground. Finding the little flea in higher grass is the bigger problem. Even if it is damaged, the parts often are better paper clips and don't cost very much. Installing them also is not a big deal.
So it comes down to:
+ The model and parts are at the lower end of the price scale.
+ They are 'indestructible', saving you lots of money and frustration.
- Small models are usually hard to fly. There is not much inertia to stabilize them and they react very quickly to the tiniest control inputs.
+ Once you learn to control a flea, you can fly anything.

Most parents have a nickname for their child. Some have superhero names...
Our son was known as "Detructo-Boy!".

Damn. He wanted $25,000 in funding and got $1.3M. That's what I want. Forget the plane.

Wouldn't that be awesome?, could definitely handle that.
