Hank Hill, I never met someone who liked him and stood for anything asinine.

Killer Mike. He a real one.

Charles Barkley as well.

iron__giant,

I just went to RTJX in Atlanta and had the time of my life. It was awesome to hear Mike and El telling stories between songs.

I’m beyond jelly at that. I’d love to see them live one day. I saw El way back in the day with Aesop.

Watching someone fuck something up, research, a video game, a car repair, that costs them a lot of time and took a ton of effort, then just laughing and going with the after math. It tells a lot about your character when something doesn’t go your way.

RampageDon,

They asked for role models, not just any random green flags.

Ah, I was responding to the green flags part.

Andrew Camerata on YouTube, after his runaway crane fell off a cliff: “It’s fine, it just needs to be, y’know, not upside down

morphballganon,

There’s no apostrophe in Mr. Rogers. Rogers is his name. It’s not possessive.

I don’t have an answer to your question, but it reminds me of Jim Varney (actor who played Ernest in the Ernest movies). He was a smoker, but was careful to not be photographed smoking, so any kids who looked up to him wouldn’t consequently think smoking was cool.

TheAlbatross,

My boyfriend said he sees David Byrne as a role model.

A clearly anxious man who finds it within him to love freely while being his own goofy self and speaking his mind.

I found that really appealing and now we dance along while singing his songs in the living room.

ericbomb,

He also is the founder of some non profits!

So he’s a really good one.

otter,

This doesn’t really answer the question, but sometimes it’s not so much who the role model is but what action they want to model.

Maybe it was wanting to get better at controlling emotions, being great at communicating during a breakup, or a general attitude towards problems that come up.

When I see someone admire / want to emulate the good actions of others, that’s a green flag.
