I am far too intelligent for this meme show

Yes, and, to be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand Rick and Morty. The humor 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 fromNarodnaya Volya literature, for instance. The fans understand this stuff; they have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the depths of these jokes, to realize that they're not just funny- they say something deep about LIFE. As a consequence people who dislike Rick and Morty truly ARE idiots- of course they wouldn't appreciate, for instance, the humour in Rick's existencial 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 unfolds itself on their television screens. What fools... how I pity them. And yes by the way, I DO have a Rick and Morty tattoo. And no, you cannot see it. It's for the ladies' eyes only- And even they have to demonstrate that they're within 5 IQ points of my own (preferably lower) beforehand.

For real though, why does this show attract such obnoxious pseuds? Do people actually feel smart when they watch it or something?

I just fucking love Rick and Morty, in the way that I fucking love science. It's so random and cool - it's like the show was designed for us Redditors, see? I wish I could live in the Rick and Morty world and be their friends. Everything would be really and cool and funny if I did. Rick and Morty are so funny and I'm so awesome that it would make perfect sense.
I run the Rick and Morty Club at my school - we come together and watch Rick and Morty. We don't talk to each other much but there's a cute girl there I'm gonna try and ask out. I'm a nice guy and I dress well so I know I've got a good chance with her. I've already messaged her on Facebook, I just haven't got a response yet. Anyway, back to the topic at hand: Rick and Morty! My favorite character is Rick because his style of humor perfectly reflects that of Reddit. I bet if I asked him "When does the narwhal bacon?", he'd know EXACTLY what I was talking about.

Name one show currently airing that's smarter than Rick and Morty.

Serious question:

Why do people these days think that overbearing cynicism = intellectualism?
Being an extreme bummer isn't a sign of being a burgeoning genius. I mean I like Rick & Morty but it's not a particularly intelligent show, just very creative and filled to the brim with that Community-esque dark sarcasm.

Rick and Morts isn't smart at all but it's not just pushing nihilism like Sup Forums claims. Rick as a character is nihilistic and Sup Forums seems to confuse Rick pushing nihilism with the show pushing nihilism. Rick's pretty consistently shown to be a shitty person who says whatever he needs to in order to get his way. And when all the cards are on the table and death seems imminent, he defaults to praying to god anyway. If anything that seems to be more of a critique of nihilism than anything else.

I think a lot of people (read: plebs) see nihilism as 'wow so intellectual' because it's the flavor of the month, the zeitgeist of our times. What do most people that think this way even believe in anymore? Certainly not gods, or kings, or nations, or even families. They've got nothing that historically speaking has given meaning to people's lives for thousands of years. So of course if you've got nothing to believe in, nihilism seems like the ultimate intellectual truth.

>punch nazis

when did this meme start

When a literal cuckold anarchist punched Richard Spencer, a Eurasianist, and Twitter liberals started calling him a Nazi.

rick and morty started it

Do people discuss this show off of Sup Forums
I'm sure I know people who watch this but I never had a discussion about it

>punching nazis
lmao, imagine a fight between 1940s nazis and modern fags, shit would be colosseum tier gladiator shit

I hear so much about it and see things posted about it constantly, unfortunately most of the people posting about it are asshats who I can't stand IRL. Is it any good?

It'd have to be the 1940s Nazis because all the modern Nazis live mostly sedentary lifestyles.

(You)

imagine how good that TV show would be, like the deadliest warrior simulation things but with real warriors from whatever time. time travel cant come quick enough

>This is the level of intellect on Sup Forums

>SS or wehrmacht
>Effective in combat

lmao those fags are 0/2, try again wehraboo retard

who here ever wanted to hold a terry fold?

Its worth a watch. I like it but it's massively overhyped and all the meme quotes I see people posting on facebook aren't even the parts I laughed at. If you generally like adult swim humor you'll probably appreciate it though

That said, the new season has been pretty disappointing

>not Alola Rick
Wasted opportunity desu

>So of course if you've got nothing to believe in, nihilism seems like the ultimate intellectual truth.
You are like a little baby, my property.

rickity rollin'

pretty sure they are terry flaps idiot

>Property
Spooky

Love the show
Hate the fans

>hating yourself

pretty sure we're going to the terry fold dance, you and me

What dies Riggity Wrecked mean?

what happened with that rick facebook group from last week?

>that fucking tumblr art

>his fucking nu male face

why did these both fill me with irrational amounts of rage?

You really do need to get into the mindset of the faggot atheist Redditard to understand why this show is so popular. These people have never heard of adult animation in their lifes that wasn't stuff like Family Guy, it was completely alien to them. And they can't laugh at these shows because they consider these shows stupid. They want a show that isn't necessarily smart or funny or well-written, but that appears to be to appeal to their surface level taste. Because these people live for that mindless self-validation. They don't actually understand what makes for good writing or good comedy, nor have they ever picked a book about physics. They want to pretend they do so and circlejerk themselves, that's what matters. Rick and Morty is just perfect for its demographic: these same college-age self-important Bernouts who "fucking love science". The entire foundation of the show is built upon the dichotomy between "silly sci-fi humor and references" and " things are super deep and tragic bro". This pseudo-intellectual "nothing even matters, I'm insecure about existence, we are all going to die" bullshit that R&M shits out in almost every episode is what appeals to it's audience. The show doesn't actually have the tact to even begin to offer an interesting presentation and discussion of any philosophy, so it spouts these edgy teenage catchphrases. Nevermind the bean-headed, noodle-limbed unexpressive character design, or how the story is non-existent and only comes up when the writers beg you to feel something for these characters so devoid of substance, or how the entire show is a trendy forgettable scenario of the week memefest with just enough sci-fi references to trick kids into thinking they are smart for understanding them, or how the characters have somehow been reduced to even more obnoxious caricatures than before, none of these things matter. What matters is that it appeals to the millenial redditor audience, and that's what's selling Rick and Morty.

I hate the pseudo intellectual cunts that worship everything about this show but it actually kind of is at least up there, I mean, name a more intellectual popular show that's airing at the moment or recently

Suicidal Rick me, Pete.

I just keep thinking of that Keep Summer Safe episode and how an episode like that couldn't possibly happen anymore because Summer now would probably have left the car and killed all the spiders and then cried about how killing all those spiders won't bring her Boyfriend back so Rick and Morty then go to that Boyfriend's house and I dunno kill him or turn him into a whale or some shit.

I'm angry that they've developed the characters in ways that make them less funny. Except Beth. She's gotten funnier every season.

ur so dumb holy shit

A pickle falls in love with a girl pickle.

Unable to confess that god isn't real, he is gifted with by a deus ex pickle with the girl’s pickle number. Never minding the strange pickle code, he immediately calls her, and is overjoyed to find out that she doesn't believe in god as well.

But, the next day, when he recounts the previous day’s confessions to the girl, she only looks at him with a pickleplexed expression. After some investigation, he finds out that god isn't real and is not the same pickle he fell in love with. In fact, she doesn’t exist in this pickle at all. She is the girl’s alternate universe counterpart, who has fallen in love with the MC’s own pickle self, who too is blissfully unaware of god not being real.

Hijinks ensue as the two strike up a deal to give each other their darkest, most private pickles in order to equip the other with the weapons they need to conquer religion. While the two chase their respective loved pickles, DRAMA ensues as they begin to fall in love with atheism and question the NATURE of PICKLE RICK.

Why is it I never see leftists actually punch nazis?

...

...

The best part of the show is that it mocks the self-unexamined searhc for meaning and identity that drives people to this show. A wholly unintended irony, but a delicious one none the less.

that was barely even a punch, only reason he fell is cause the guy threw himself with the punch

I never understood why "sucker punch and run away like a little bitch" was cause for celebration

Already a thing.

We can learn something from how this "meme" died almost immediately as soon as mods started liking it.

I bet Baneposting would've died sooner as soon as lame mods started making board edits and trolls with them.

A boy falls in love with his grandfather.

Unable to confess, Morty is gifted by a deus ex machina with Rick's phone number. Never minding the strange area code, he immediately calls him, and is overjoyed to find out that he has a crush on him as well.

But, the next day, when he recounts the previous day's confessions to the old man, he only looks at him with a perplexed expression. After some investigation, he finds out that the boy he called is not the same senior citizen he fell in love with. In fact, he doesn't exist in this universe at all. He is the the grampa's alternate universe counterpart, who has fallen in love with the MC's own AU self, who too is blissfully unaware of his crush.

Hijinks ensue as the two strike up a deal to give each other their darkest, most private secrets in order to equip the other with the weapons they need to conquer the heart of their other selves. While the two chase their respective loved ones, DRAMA ensues as they begin to fall in love with each other instead and question the NATURE of INCEST.

Yes

>doofus rick is actually just normal intelligence but is a retard by comparison

Leave Chaika out of this!

>the way he ran away crying and started fixing his hair
lol nazis are little pussies

The only thing that can compete with Baneposting is Toddposting. Maybe the up and coming SMASHED and SLAMMED meme has some good Sup Forums potential.

It's like those 'IQ' tests you find everywhere these days that say your smart even if you get some answers wrong and it enables autismos and millennials alike to think they are smart and superior, even though they are obviously average at best.

>le jumps ship after getting what he wants man
Why does Sup Forums worship such cringey politicians?

Are you kidding me? Go to a rally when black bloc show up, shit breaks out all the time.

Alt right disavow themselves publicly all the time. Underhanded tactics is how you do political violence.

>>le jumps ship after getting what he wants man
I don't see how this is a criticism. He was always a single-issue politician, and he was upfront about that. Once he succeeded in solving that single issue he retired, rather than becoming a parasitic career politician.

MORTY I'M A _______

Nope

new episode in three minutes fellas

literally reverse the slices and it's accurate

Modern """"nazis"""" don't exist. Bernie Sanders supporters are the closest thing you'll get to actual nazis these days.

>its a citadel episode

isn't that adorable?
little jackass

.t doofus rick

link pls

adultswim.com/videos/simulcast/

Baneposting is eternal.

It might work on Sneedposting tho. It certainly worked with Crescent Fresh.

Anyone got a link to the new ep?

>its a socialist morty episode
we have reached peak shit

>baneposting
What?

It actually is sadly.

what socialist policy did he enact?

What's wrong with socialism?

Don't Ricks choose to go to the citadel? Why are they forced stay?

This is so satisfying to watch... damn.

ROlling RICK!

Literally leave your basement for once and you'll see that it's accurate.

>Sucidal Rick
heheheheh ;_;

Majority of the fans are kids and underagers. Which makes half of the edgy ""grown up"" ""humor"" in it so unironically problematic.

>man is standing talking to the press, face in plain view
>second man with face covered runs up and sucker punches him and runs away
>leftists consider this a win

>dipshit hick walks into a black church and massacres a bunch of old unarmed people
>right wingers consider this a win

how would leaving my basement give me any more perspective on rick and morty fandom than just bowling the internet all day

What isn't?

if you'd been paying attention there are zero right wingers that don't condemn that act, including Sup Forums

You do realize that we're still benefiting from Nazi experiments on humans, as well as their research into rocket propulsion.

>2017
>wasting time listening to or talking to the cancer that are nazis
Grow up, kiddo

>senseless violence is a better problem solver than dialogue
sort yourself out, bucko

>baneposting
As in posting Bane from that Batman movie?
Did this used to be a thing here?

never gonna give never gonna give
(give you up)

that was great
I didn't think they would ever address the Evil Morty thing again

...

>Engaging in dialogue with the ignorant who hide behind their freedoms to destroy said freedoms and who laugh at you for seeking dialogue solves fascism
Again, grow up.
