the scandal???
Probably this one where a bunch of fans attacked a McDonald's to get Szechuan sauce. Rick and Morty got some mainstream attention. People would say something like "You like R&M? You must be toxic."

Yeahh the Szechuan thing kinda tainted the whole show for me. It was a dumb bit that went too far and the cringe fallout still lingers...

Roblox. I played it as a kid around 2007 when it was just a small Lego-like building game with your friends. It's been really weird seeing it become some predatory, monetized app game that kids play on their iPad now.
For reference, I'm almost 30 and haven't played it since I was like 14. My friend's kid was playing Roblox on his tablet and asked if I "heard of this new app game called Roblox" and it hurt my soul.

Roguelikes. I'm not saying some of the modern roguelites aren't fantastic, there are many that are. But the genre boom has all but pushed traditional roguelikes (NetHack, ADoM, Angband, Brogue, etc) out of the conversation.

It was so dumb that it was funny to me
I share this view. It was so nonsensical that it was actually funny and memorable.

This is why I either went with Chaos (during my adolescence, mostly outgrew them) or Aeldari. I mean, they aren't that much better from a lore perspective, but at least they give everyone a chance to suffer equally...
What about their penises?

From "haha, raspberriesareyummy will marry his computer one day" to most everyone around me constantly staring at their whatsapp, tiktok or "talking" with siri/alexa.

wrote last edited by [email protected]I feel like they're more likely talking about Jeff Roiland's (edit: creator, one of the main writers, and voice actor for most male characters (including both Rick and Morty)) abuse allegations, after which they canned him as writer/ voice actor and the show kind of lost it's flair.

There's literally an episode of Doug where Doug's standard outfit inexplicably becomes super popular. So watch 90s Nick to learn what to do.

You're joking, right?
Roiland is a great voice actor, but the rambling "comedy" bits got old and repetitive real fast. I don't miss them. That, and the new VOs hit it out of the park.

I saw a clear separation between me and the idiot part of the demographic who enjoys the show at the Pickle Rick episode.
It wasn't funny. It wasn't even a good story or episode. It was just the writers deciding to come up with the most blatantly random thing for the sole sake of randomness.
wrote last edited by [email protected]I hate that I'm writing this because I'm gonna sound like the *"to be fair * copy pasta but, the fact that it's so lame and stupid is kind of the whole point of the bit.
He gives his big "I'm pickle Riiiiick!" presentation like it's supposed to be some big huge awesome thing, and it's presented like a punchline that you're supposed to laugh at and find funny... Then it's a hard cut to Morty's disappointed, slightly concerned face for a solid 10 seconds. Morty is you, the viewer, painfully unimpressed by what is presented as, well, "the funniest shit ever".
Remember in an earlier episode when Rick makes a reference to the non-existent Redgren Grumblholdt, and the kids laugh because they think it's supposed to be funny and just want to fit in? Those are the people that the "funniest shit ever" meme is about. People that are fed an intentionally bad joke, don't understand the irony behind the bad joke, but sees that everyone else is laughing at the bad joke, so they pretend the joke is funny. Two people laughing at the same thing for entirely different reasons.
The whole Pickle Rick plotline is just background events anyways. The meat and potatoes of the episode is with Dr Wong.

I was really into punk music when I was a kid since the late 80s/early 90s, then the big boom happened in the mid-late 90s, which eventually yielded to pop punk and emo music from the early 2000s. I kid you not, I was bullied as a kid for liking punk music, before it became mainstream.
I still listen to it and I've even seen a resurgence coming as it coinciding with the 20 year nostalgia cycle, which is great in my opinion. But being a punk fan before it achieved mainstream success and after it went into decline by 2010s made me feel exactly as this post describes.

The whole show is about how Rick is a selfish prick. That episode was also about Rick being a selfish prick and trying to weasel out family therapy by turning himself into a pickle.
That's it. That was the entire reason for Pickle Rick. But the idiots who idolize Rick for some reason cranked it up to full retard.

yeah sorry Anon, go fuck yourself and your nazi skull flag. That shit's the Totenkopf, what, did the new generation of chuds ruin Nazi for you? Poor fuckin' baby.

from their wiki - had performed at rallies for The Right to Work, Rock Against Racism, and the Anti-Nazi League. -
holy shit this is a ride
"The Totenkopf-6 is a slightly grinning skull, framed by a circle and a small 6 in the lower right corner. Death in June has, since at least the State Laughter / Holy Water 7″, used variations of the Prussian Totenkopf or "Death's Head" symbol. Indeed, there is another explanation that has been given by Pearce, he has also stated that it symbolises "total commitment" to the group, akin to the total commitment of soldiers of the SS"
ah... getting to the shit that matters -
"The Southern Poverty Law Center considers Death in June to be white power music harboring neo-Nazi sympathies."
yeeeaah this all fits
