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 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 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.

To be fair.....you don't need to have a very high IQ to understand Rick and Morty. On the contrary. Most people love Rick and Morty because they THINK, loving it makes them look like high IQ people while they are just.....average pleb.

You mean you have to have certain politics and a unhealthy fascination with sexualizing children?

Tell me you have delusions of grandeur without telling me you have delusions of grandeur.

I'd be surprised if you could find a woman who would tolerate your blow-hardy personality.

The amount of people that don't realize this is a troll post makes me sad.
This is something someone said about Rick and morty, like... years ago, and people keep reposting it because of how cringe it is. This guy didn't actually write this. It's a meme.

How many people dont recognize the meme

I agree the people that dont' like the humor are probably Low IQ mongoloids

This obviously is just the meme...

This meme mostly was created by people that doesnt really enjoy Rick and Morty, not because they use super elaborated humor, but because they dig in some interesting jokes that comes from the sci-fi vives, some that ussually the common public doesnt get because they simply are not that interested on sci-fi.

Talking about the IQ is like people that watch Family guy and by understanding all the jokes related to politics would believe they have a degree on political science.

What the ♥♥♥♥ did you just ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ say about me, you little ♥♥♥♥♥? I'll have you know I graduated top of my class in the Navy Seals, and I've been involved in numerous secret raids on Al-Quaeda, and I have over 300 confirmed kills. I am trained in gorilla warfare and I'm the top sniper in the entire US armed forces. You are nothing to me but just another target. I will wipe you the ♥♥♥♥ out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ words. You think you can get away with saying that ♥♥♥♥ to me over the Internet? Think again, ♥♥♥♥♥♥. As we speak I am contacting my secret network of spies across the USA and your IP is being traced right now so you better prepare for the storm, maggot. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your life. You're ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ dead, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can kill you in over seven hundred ways, and that's just with my bare hands. Not only am I extensively trained in unarmed combat, but I have access to the entire arsenal of the United States Marine Corps and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable ass off the face of the continent, you little ♥♥♥♥. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little "clever" comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ tongue. But you couldn't, you didn't, and now you're paying the price, you ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ idiot. I will ♥♥♥♥ fury all over you and you will drown in it. You're ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ dead, kiddo.
