    I like watching Rick and Morty.

    I have exactly 0 accessories, paraphernalia, or otherwise branded items in my possession that indicate that.

    I feel fairly confident that most people here are aware of how childish, arrogant, and honestly just downright insufferable Rick and morty “fans” can be.

    It seems like every time it comes up in conversation, and the other person is a fan, they immediately seem to launch into a tirade about how modern shows are all crap because they’re stupid, not like THIS show. It’s like the “you have to have a high IQ” meme just became the unironic norm for a lot of people.

    It’s usually fart jokes and lowest common denominator humor dressed up in Sci fi tropes. You aren’t special for understanding highschool introductory phycisal science.

    Futurama is arguably the same kind of show, but they know exactly what they are, and the writers actually have well educated backgrounds to make the science stuff a bit less… “VX nozzle on the turboencabulator”-esque
