@OkamsRazer he won that one poker game and actually was smart enough to play his parents against each other. So I wouldn't say he was portrayed as an idiot from the very beginning
jake isn't stupid per se, just lazy and ignorant. he learns what applies to him, otherwise it isn't worth a thought. unfortunately the two combined means he doesn't try to learn much
Its moments like these that really makes me hate the whole "Pothead" version of Jake as a teen. Jake was slow yes, but clearly was never stupid. I can get behind the idea of him being a D and F student but the kid should have been a whole 'nother level of street smart, schooling his friends on practical subjects with a jaded, confident personality than anything else.
One unforgivable thing about this show (besides kicking out Charlie for Ashton), is they turn Jake from a smartass cute and kind of pervert little boy into a brainless teen whose only funny characteristic is him being really stupid
@@Miblive Ashton did a horrible job. The show became very plasticky and the jokes were very pushed and completely not funny. Don't blame Kutcher, he had an impossible job to do.
My nieces and nephews are lucky, I am that type of uncle. But with a bonus, I’m a twin and he’s that type of uncle also! Plus, we also live together like Charlie and Alan.
I did. But he drank himself to death. In the countryside in the small cottage where they grew up. His brother found him between bed and wall some days later. But I guess he had good thirty years fun, last five not so much.
@@yolandaponkers1581 No. Nobody wants their child to be gay. Even if you are gay you wouldn't want that would you? You can be as open minded as you wish but you know there will be people who won't. Nobody would want their child to go thorugh extra hardships in their lives. There is nothing wrong with being ugly or borning poor or having some sort of disability or being a bit naive or being gay. You want your kid to be a beatiful rich healthy smart straight. + there is the potential partner pool, It's already hard when half people can like you. imagine a kid who goes to high school and there is no other gay kids in that school. and university. and workplace. Supporting your gay child is brilliant and I'm all for it. But there is no denying that being gay is hard.
@@OKANGUVEN99 who has a child and says, man I hope when he grows up he's straight lmao, being gay isn't as hard as it was like 10 years ago (unless you live in a poorer neighbourhood where people tend to still be inbred degenerates) I think it's almost harder being a straight male nowadays with all the shit we get
Everyone telling Charlie how to live his life when they're the one intruding on his personal space. Alan if you don't like it, move out. Judith if you don't like it, don't send your son there.
The other one was Boobra Schmidt. People in Jake `s school still talk about this legendary piece of art. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-T76uU18lxIU.html
"At school, it's grammar & math. With mom, it's brush your teeth & clean your room. With Dad, it's eat your broccoli & do your homework. With Uncle Charlie, it's the land of milk and honey!" ~ Jake
Happier life, doing menial labor jobs, because you can't make sense of anything more complex than, dig here. I had two or three friends in elementary school that started smoking dope in middle school and by the time they dropped out of high school they were drueling idiots. But, they were oh so happy.
Michael, it sounds your friends were drooling idiots to begin with. I smoked weed damn every day starting my sophomore year and was on the honor role with advanced english and science classes (this was before widespread AP programs). Weed doesn't make you stupid, it just makes self-discipline a pain in the ass (at least for me). Passing high school was easy - all I did was show up and maintain a body temperature of 98 degrees. Rare was it that I did most of the homework; but I passed all the tests with flying colors. Now there are quite a few people who just aren't able to learn the way they teach in high school, and they drop out and go on to community college or trade school or something that is more fit for them. And they usually grow to be very successful individuals in their chosen field, trade, interest, passion, etc. ... And then there are just dumb motherfuckers who are about as worthwhile as hen shit on a pump handle.
Having a "Normal" uncle like Charlie is a great asset to a growing kid! Especially a boy! I would have realised having an uncle the kid could go/turn to with questions or concerns about life and growing up.
