The most badass TV character in
history. Appears on NBC's Parks & Recreation and is known for his deadpan, masculine presence as an ultraconservative parks director for Pawnee, Indiana. A local
government official who hates all things
government, Ron Swanson sets the bar for manliness.
"I got my first
job when I was
nine. Worked at a sheet metal factory. In two weeks, I was running the
floor. Child labor laws are ruining this country."
