Key paleo or potentially paleo concepts:
- Skim milk: Avoid it
- Skim milk: That's right. It's on here twice. Avoid it.
- Living in the woods: Live off the land.
- Property Rights: They exist. Don't let them be taken away from you.
- Cow Protein, Pig Protein, Chicken Protein, Romantic Love, Deer Protein
- B.O. Cultivating a manly musk puts your opponents on notice.
- YOU. You are your biggest ally.
- Self-reliance. Trust yourself.
- Capitalism. God's way of determining who is smart, and who is poor.
- Intensity: Give 100%. 110% is impossible. Only idiots recommend that.

- Greatness itself. The best revenge.
Not-so-paleo concepts on the pyramid:
- Fish (Sport only) {C'mon Ron! Get your Omega-3s!}
- Buffets. Wherever available. Choose quantity over quality.
Here is some more proof of Ron's primal / paleo tendencies:
Quotes:
Ron: When I'm done eating a Mulligan's meal, for weeks afterwards, there are flecks of meat in my mustache. And I refuse to clean it because every now and then a piece of meat will fall into my mouth.
Ron: I am submitting this menu from a Pawnee institution, J.J.'s Diner. Home of the world's best breakfast dish: The Four Horsemeals of the Eggporkalypse.
Ron: Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Don't teach a man to fish, and you feed yourself. He's a grown man. Fishing's not that hard.
Leslie: Why would anybody ever eat anything besides breakfast food?
Ron: People are idiots, Leslie.
Leslie: Well, don't be such a baby. I cooked you some bacon for a trail snack.
Ron: I ate it already.
Leslie: What?
Ron: I could smell it in your purse before I even parked my car. And now it's gone and I hate everything.
Ron: Come on Leslie, you know I'm not sexist. I love powerful women.
Leslie: You do attend a shocking number of WNBA games.
Ron, on individual liberty: The whole point of this country is if you want to eat garbage, balloon up to 600 pounds and die of a heart attack at 43, you can! You are free to do so. To me, that's beautiful.
Ron: Strippers do nothing for me. I like a strong, salt of the Earth, self-possessed woman at the top of her field. Your Steffi Grafs, your Sheryl Swoopeses, but I will take a free breakfast buffet anytime, anyplace.
Ron: This seems like none of our business.
Leslie: Be supportive, OK? Don't be all like, "No. I don't want to. I am a guy and I like fire, and playing hockey and eating meat. No, no says I."
April: That was a really good Ron.
Leslie: Thank you.
Ron: I've established a scientifically perfect, ten-point scale of human beauty. Wendy is a 7.4, which is way too high for Tom, who is a 3.8. 10 is tennis legend Steffi Graf.
