To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand Rick and Morty. The humour is extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of theoretical physics most of the jokes will go over a typical viewer’s head. There’s also Rick’s nihilistic outlook, which is deftly woven into his characterisation- his personal philosophy draws heavily from Narodnaya Volya literature, for instance. The fans understand this stuff; they have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the depths of these jokes, to realise that they’re not just funny- they say something deep about LIFE. As a consequence people who dislike Rick & Morty truly ARE idiots- of course they wouldn’t appreciate, for instance, the humour in Rick’s existential catchphrase “Wubba Lubba Dub Dub,” which itself is a cryptic reference to Turgenev’s Russian epic Fathers and Sons. I’m smirking right now just imagining one of those addlepated simpletons scratching their heads in confusion as Dan Harmon’s genius wit unfolds itself on their television screens. What fools… how I pity them. 😂
And yes, by the way, i DO have a Rick & Morty tattoo. And no, you cannot see it. It’s for the ladies’ eyes only- and even then they have to demonstrate that they’re within 5 IQ points of my own (preferably lower) beforehand. Nothin personnel kid 😎
Cant tell if this is like legit idiot, or the best parody ever.
It’s a copypasta
🤢😬😶
It’s a copypasta dude
Rick and Morty is not intelligent
To be fair you need a high IQ to understand
I love how the way he wrote that makes it seem like he considers this dude hurting the fandom and killing some show to be a worse transgression than hurting his girlfriend.
hurting millios of smart adult fans (like me) every single day and second 😢😢 or a girl getting hurt two tims a day. Please think abut before comenting 😭😭😭
I can’t believe how much fucking merchandise there is for such a small show. Compare it to even something like futurama in terms of cultural impact and there’s so much more plastic shit made for Rick and Morty
Rick and morty has the a to attract some of the most obsessive people on the planet. When everyone’s a whale you better start whaling
Wailing
As an aside, did you know Futurama is coming back?
Unpopular opinion: Fry and Leelo’s romance was the worst part of that show.
Rick and morty is not a small show by almost any metric. Funko pops also became popular right around the same time and have a massive overlap in fans, so it makes sense. Futurama was not out at the same time for the most part but there is still about a dozen funko pops from it.
Funko can just make tons of unique models really cheaply, and they know fans will buy them to collect like beanie babies, so of course they’ll keep churning out different versions of the same characters of one of the most popular nerd cartoons that their own fans love.
it’s a small show by literally any metric.
The Circle posted about triple the viewership numbers. would you consider the circle a big show?
Ah yes, do compare a reality show to a fiction cartoon. I’m sure Top Chef has such a greater impact culturally than Breaking Bad
Breaking bad pulled in more than 10x the viewers of top chef on a regular basis.
Wasnt Roiland actually cleared by the court?
doesn’t matter, these"judges" already convicted him. Forget due process. Getting accused publicly == being guilty forever on social media.
It’s also important to remember that this is how most abuse cases work out. There is almost never enough evidence because it is almost impossible to proof beyond reasonable doubt. It’s incredibly rare that someone gets convicted in an abuse case, no matter if they actually committed abuse or not. The victim has to basically stand in court with the gunk and fingerprints of the perpetrator still on them and video material that shows it wasn’t self-defense from the other side, for any conviction to actually happen.
So we should be satisfied ruining people’s lives based on accusations alone?
That’s what you take from it? No, I think there should be no reports or articles or mentions on any cases that have not yet been decided upon by a court. A private’s persons life is not ruined by an accusation because it almost never leads to a conviction, regardless of whether they are guilty or not.
Sorry, I thought you were saying in subtext that we should only judge based on accusations since evidence is hard to get for abuse cases. My bad!
No, I am really not that good in English. I often realise people understand it slightly different than what I meant. But I can’t do anything about it lol
Yes, but: a lot of other pretty unwholesome stuff came out about him during the process and his contract has a clause in it that allows him to be terminated on that basis; it’s actually pretty common for people in his kind of position to have contracts like that.
Got a lonk? Curious to see what other stuff came out.
in any case it’s nothing that anyone dared to show any judge.
so for all intents and purposes, bullshit
