And I’d save scum in real life too, if I could!

      Additional off my chest:

      I’ve never intentionally watched an episode of Rick & Morty, and I never will.

        So, I know the fans can be obnoxious, I get that, but just hear me out.

        Like you, I wasn’t interested in watching it, then somebody posted this clip on Reddit. I watched it and thought, damn, I gotta check this out.

        Im like 4 seasons behind, and I’m in no rush to get caught up, but maybe someday if I’m bored. If you have some personal vendetta or point to prove, then nevermind my comments, but if the popularity just turned you off, it’s not all bad.

          I appreciate your assessment and it seems fair. However, there’s something about the writing and characters that I really don’t like and can’t get into.

            I watched for a while, but dropped it as I liked everything about the show except Rick and Morty. The way those to talk is just annoying between the burps and the whining.

            So yeah, I can relate to not getting into it.

              I can totally see that. Everybody’s a real piece of shit on that show. I just put it in the genre of Seinfeld or It’s always Sunny, a bunch of assholes being assholes so we can laugh at them.

              The burps and whining mere diminished once Justin Roiland got kicked from the team for calling underaged girls in Morty’s voice.

              It is a lot more tolerable in the last season.

          One of the best parts of that episode is Mr. Poopy butthole is in every scene of the intro sequence
