The Truck Farmer

another classic MST3K Short

[@MDWFlipIt]

For keeping 1950 to 60's third grade kids quiet while the teacher goes to have a smoke, or bourbon, or both.

[@Rick-Rarick]

4:30 "Here in Texas there is an additional problem... Texans!" That was hilarious!

[@murphsnoopy]

“Cucumbers!” I remember falling out of my chair and laughing myself to a headache when I first saw that two plus decades ago

[@CarryLarry]

MST3K taught me the value of a worker's revolution

[@mattynigma]

[@EverDownward]

Tom: "I love you, Earl" Earl: "No. Not here, Tom" Tom (quietly): "I love you"

[@maniacaldude]

"...And the finished box is passed along on a series of rollers directly to a refrigerated railroad car, where it is loaded immediately." "...Then sent back to the farm and put back into the ground. It actually makes no sense whatsoever!"

[@nina1522]

"Praise the Truck Farmer! Bow down before him!"

[@kirbichu54]

Even for a film about farming, "people take food for granted" is a good way to lose whoever's still awake watching this.

[@TimelordR]

Do farmers really listen to Stravinsky while plowing the fields? Also, was this short made before or after Ed Murrow's CBS News farm expose, Harvest Of Shame?

[@WalterReimer]

This short: 1954 "Harvest of Shame": 1960 Courtesy of IMDB
