I'm so tired of woke shit.... I can't even get angry it just makes me tired... maybe I should just kill myself this world is made for me anymore
Kys homosexual, remove your weak genes from the genepool already, if a vapid joke is enough to drive you to suicide then you're not cut out for the real world
How is it a joke? The Rick And Morty writers are saying that intelligence is racist and bad. It's just libshit propaganda, is this what passes as comedy to you?
>checking the world is better off without your self victimhood
And you're telling HIM that? Not the thousands of b***hes who use their minority status to get a leg up on others?
Rick was essentially saying how intelligence is purely a matter of personal character, and that concrete biological things (such as race, IQ, brain size, etc) aren't factors. Shouldn't you agree with this, unless you're a race realist?
Believing that people may be advantaged by genetics or luck of the draw isn't necessarily a racist view. We can't know for sure what the writers intend before we see the end of the episode and whatever conclusion Rick and Jerry come to.
Modern Liberalism is influenced by the Rawlsian view that people are not necessarily entitled to the fruits of their natural born talent on account of not having earned it, which would naturally include intellectual aptitude.
Well if you want to have a nice day and hate the world why not go out as a bomber at a place you hate and pretend to be another thing you hate to give them bad press. Like a gay bomber that blows up Muslims add some glitter and it’ll it’s laugh riot.

You’re too dumb to understand what the joke actually was. I guess I have to check my brain privilege.

Yes please have a nice day. I'm so tired of you drones that only exist in a perpetual state of outrage at the most mundane of things. Just go back to 2016 already
I have to admit, I'm very eager to see why exactly Rick killed himself in Jerry's body. The physical and biological ramifications of mind-body transference are very overlooked and has always interested me as a sci-fi concept. R&M actually did this back in season 2 where Rick's old man mind couldn't function in a younger teenage body.
I don’t know if it’s what the show is going for but it’s impossible to prove everyone else’s experience of consciousness is the same as our own. People have already kinda proved genetics relate to how we perceive physical pain, and endurance/exertion between born runners and regular joes depending on your lactate threshold which no amount of good choices can alter. Same reason why some people find it easy to do marathons and other people find it a challenge just to get out of bed, not just lifestyle choices but differences in chemicals released in the brain and in each individual muscle and shit.
Rick could’ve just gone from his own brain with limitless energy and motive and drive to one whose hardware is wired to be sluggish and low energy and depressed all the time, and he’s never experienced in his lifetime a consciousness where just existing is so chemically taxing in comparison to Rick’s being so chemically rewarding. Like a drug crash, or more like a reverse drug-high
having listened to this the voice isn't actually that bad but I would describe it on that thin line of you don't really notice it but its different enough to give you a weird feeling at the back of your mind
There are some lines where he really does sound identical, but he doesn't stay in that voice for more than a couple lines. I roll my eyes a little bit when people claim they hear no difference whatsoever, but when he told MPB something like "you're an adult, read the room and figure it out" I'd legitimately have no idea it wasn't Roiland. I think a little more direction in the recording booth would smooth out his tone and inflection somewhat so even if the sound is slightly different, the feel is the same.
>>rick said he BECAME a genius >>Even though in his memory he was a genius as a kid
You can tell he clearly lying somewhat to get an edge on Jerry. In the flashback, he was clearly a very gifted kid. Not super-genius tier yet, but still far ahead of most his age.
The Mr. Poopy Butthole episode was always intended to be the opener because it implies MPH has been crashing at the Smiths' place for weeks or months which only feels natural if it airs after a hiatus. The problem is it fricking sucked.
in the show they scan an image of one's persona, put it in the other brain and viceversa, as if they were computer hard drives
in reality it means nothing since the hardware is the software
imagine you're (you) and then all of a sudden, all the experiences you've had and your thought patterns were sapped away and replaced with someone else's who was so fundamentally different from you that you have trouble even contemplating how such a person exists.
You're still (you), you just now have the memories and thought patterns of that other person
Did Rick kill himself due to not being able to handle his own life under Jerry's brain, or not being able to handle Jerry's life with his (Rick's) brain?
Or both.
My bet would be the former.
His brain is trained to suppress his mind's incredible self-loathing, so like
Who knows, maybe Jerry experiences anxiety more intensely than Rick could handle making him buckle under his own trauma.
said, when he got stuck with Jerry's brain it's like being at Challenger Depth and cabin pressure giving out. Jerry's brain couldn't filter out the suicidal tendencies quickly enough because Jerry's mind never got anywhere that upset before, let alone as the baseline level of self-loathing.
I see. So for example if an adrenaline junkie were to change minds with a more restrained person he would become unable to do the shit he usually does since their new brain is not burned out on chemicals and it would become too much to handle while the other person would suddently feel numb towars everything even thought they themselves have never experienced that adrenaline burnout before.
I'm guessing it's as if you were trying to run some next gen videogame ( rick's mind ) on an i486 laptop ( jerry's brain ), so rick's mind just collapsed on itself given it doesn't have enough resource to do whatever the frick it needs to do, coping apparently
the difference is that Ricks mind was still his own, just running at a slower, but still impressive capacity.
w=When Rick switched with Jerry, Rick's quick thinking and infinite knowledge of the multiverse just plopped into a regular human mind that is not equipped to handled the experiences that Rick's mind held.
The replacement is close enough to perfect to the point where you really can't complain.
The problem the show has had for several seasons is the fricking writing. And that hasn't changed. And with everything about Roiland being totally disconnected from the show's writing replacing him as the voice actually doesn't fix the problems with the show or any of the production. The fact that "it feels like nothing has changed" I'm sure they think is an achievement but they haven't actually fixed the most significant problem with the show itself.
The writing can't really be helped. Roiland might not have been a participant in the writing department since around season 2, you could at least feel the man could've one day got himself involved if he wanted to or actually invited people who are more “his guys” to write just like Harmon did, but now that Roiland is ousted from the show, it's basically in its status quo now and doubt it's ever gonna change unless the writing gets major backlash, which I don't think is likely outside of ignorable complaints.
Maybe Rick and Jerry share a body and THEN have to frick Beth, together, to save their marriage or something. That would make the Parent Trap reference work.
i just waiting for this show to reveal that jerry patheticness is some form of entity on it own made be the universe itself to counter Rick super genious trying to be ''META''
Seems like it would be an obvious twist. Jerry's influence causes the wind to call him a loser, attracted the talking cat to him, lets him pass on his brainwaves to Morty. Curious if Rick Prime is going to use Jerry Prime for some nefarious purpose.
So Rick exerts so much megamind brain power suppressing his knowledge of dark truths about the universe that he goes blue screen of death when he has to run it on a less powerful system?
Or Rick is so disgusted with Jerry's brain that he thinks it's not an existence worth living for even a second?
Or Jerry's brain is fighting demons 24/7 that even Rick can't handle? I hope it's this one because it's funniest.
The way I interpret it is that despite being pathetic, Jerry likes himself. Rick may be intelligent but he fricking hates himself, so when he switches minds he ends up being pathetic AND self-loathing, he has nothing to hold onto anymore so he ends up killing himself.
For a man who bases his entire self identity on being smart, losing that is hell itself.
Interesting interpretation. Really similar riff on those, since his alcoholism and intelligence are the only things he has to console or perceive himself positively, maybe losing them both is like getting a shot of pure, unadulterated clarity.
Also let's not forget that this started because Rick was dumb enough to take jerry up on the challenge instead of ignoring him despite seeing Jerry as below him
Jerry has always had the ability to screw with Rick/Rick's stuff now that I think about it. His ability to be utterly mundane and pathetic is the kryptonite to whatever sci-fi nonsense he's presented with, usually to his own personal detriment.
>For a man who bases his entire self identity on being smart, losing that is hell itself.
That kind of reminds me of the rick and morty d&d comic where jerry gets intelligence and makes good observations about rick and himself while also acknowledging his place
Rick and Jerry episodes are the best.
This should've been the season opener.
100%
Fax
That's because nuMorty is either a watered down rick or a turbo simp in the later seasons.
Jerry has basically become the new morty and Gene has become the new Jerry.
Last season's was ruined due to incest jokes
Nah you’re just a whiny normalgay
Why didn't they just say Rick caught COVID and due to his age and alcohol abuse, it fricked up his lungs permanently. He sounds like a guy with COVID.
How would it explain the other Rick's that exist sounding like that?
portal fluid got mixed with the virus and it ended up infecting every rick in the multiverse
Corona isn't real, homosexual.
why wouldn't Rick then just invent something to fix his lungs then? or a voice modulator you fricking hack
in a perfect world every cartoonist and VA would be a violent rapist
>Rick and Jerry are switching bodies
Considering a lot of recurring themes in this series Rick is gonna frick Beth is Jerry's body right
No, but somehow Beth is going to want to frick Jerry for some reason during the exact period of time they're switched.
>Rick could not handle a single moment in Jerry's shoes.
Jerry bros.. We are vindicated!
Came off like Rick couldn't handle being "THAT" worthless of a person
>brain privilege
I'm so tired of woke shit.... I can't even get angry it just makes me tired... maybe I should just kill myself this world is made for me anymore
Anon don't do that, there's always better stuff out there.
Please don't let these dumbasses drive you to suicide.
Kys homosexual, remove your weak genes from the genepool already, if a vapid joke is enough to drive you to suicide then you're not cut out for the real world
How is it a joke? The Rick And Morty writers are saying that intelligence is racist and bad. It's just libshit propaganda, is this what passes as comedy to you?
how do you misunderstand this babdly? God, you no different from the people you hate
kys snowflake the joke was making fun of privilege checking the world is better off without your self victimhood
>checking the world is better off without your self victimhood
And you're telling HIM that? Not the thousands of b***hes who use their minority status to get a leg up on others?
>kill
right idea
>yourself
wrong target
how about he kills YOU then, homosexual?
sorry anon, but Rick/Jerry already beat you to the punch
But Rick is balking at the idea of brain privilege. Doesn't he, and by extension the writers, agree with you?
You are being very presumptuous, whether the writers agree with him or not is something we can't know until the episode is finished.
Rick was essentially saying how intelligence is purely a matter of personal character, and that concrete biological things (such as race, IQ, brain size, etc) aren't factors. Shouldn't you agree with this, unless you're a race realist?

it's a fricking joke dude
stop

stop trying to use people's mental illness to further you're culture war bullshit
You’re too dumb to understand what the joke actually was. I guess I have to check my brain privilege.
this anon is the kind of person who tells everyone else they get triggered over nothing btw
Yes please have a nice day. I'm so tired of you drones that only exist in a perpetual state of outrage at the most mundane of things. Just go back to 2016 already
Excellent bait. Nailed it.
lol the amount of triggered soi you pulled with this was pretty impressive
pathetic
Seems a lot better than the premiere already. Rick and Morty bros we are back for real this time.
How smart do you have to be to settle a rake related dispute?

having listened to this the voice isn't actually that bad but I would describe it on that thin line of you don't really notice it but its different enough to give you a weird feeling at the back of your mind
yeah the first episode was distracting, seem that they fix the line deliver this time
There are some lines where he really does sound identical, but he doesn't stay in that voice for more than a couple lines. I roll my eyes a little bit when people claim they hear no difference whatsoever, but when he told MPB something like "you're an adult, read the room and figure it out" I'd legitimately have no idea it wasn't Roiland. I think a little more direction in the recording booth would smooth out his tone and inflection somewhat so even if the sound is slightly different, the feel is the same.
I don't even notice it
The voice is a tad gruffer than Roiland's. It still sounds like him, but it's obviously not exact on the dot.
>rick said he BECAME a genius
>Even though in his memory he was a genius as a kid
Uhm...plothole???? help????
He didn't say when he became a genius.
Rick once again utterly blown out by Jerry. Love to see it.
He means it in a 'I worked to become a genius' way the same way people work to become professional doctors and shit.
He was still ALWAYS working with a Super-Genius hardware brain rather than a normie brain though, so it's essentially a moot point.
>>rick said he BECAME a genius
>>Even though in his memory he was a genius as a kid
You can tell he clearly lying somewhat to get an edge on Jerry. In the flashback, he was clearly a very gifted kid. Not super-genius tier yet, but still far ahead of most his age.
Rick bangs Beth in Jerry's body
The Mr. Poopy Butthole episode was always intended to be the opener because it implies MPH has been crashing at the Smiths' place for weeks or months which only feels natural if it airs after a hiatus. The problem is it fricking sucked.
How can Rick not know about genetics deciding intelligence?
He knows, he's just butthurt that Jerry tried to make him feel bad about it.
>How can Rick not know about genetics deciding intelligence?
Same as rich kids who are " self-made ", he doesn't want to give up his sense of autonomy because it compromises the ego
what does it mean to put your mind in another brain?
in the show they scan an image of one's persona, put it in the other brain and viceversa, as if they were computer hard drives
in reality it means nothing since the hardware is the software
imagine you're (you) and then all of a sudden, all the experiences you've had and your thought patterns were sapped away and replaced with someone else's who was so fundamentally different from you that you have trouble even contemplating how such a person exists.
You're still (you), you just now have the memories and thought patterns of that other person
Somehow Rick's tech can quantify and transfer consciousness. The brain is simply the physical apparatus for controlling the body's nervous system.
It was more of a personality swap
Did Rick kill himself due to not being able to handle his own life under Jerry's brain, or not being able to handle Jerry's life with his (Rick's) brain?
Or both.
*not being able to handled Jerry's brain/life with (Rick's) mind
Who knows, maybe Jerry experiences anxiety more intensely than Rick could handle making him buckle under his own trauma.

Jerry confirmed mentally stronger than Rick
You love to see it
Rick's been dumbed down before though, when he and Jerry went to that planet with the anti-killing field.
the difference is that Ricks mind was still his own, just running at a slower, but still impressive capacity.
w=When Rick switched with Jerry, Rick's quick thinking and infinite knowledge of the multiverse just plopped into a regular human mind that is not equipped to handled the experiences that Rick's mind held.
That affected his mind. This is his mind in a different brain.
where mega?
The episode isn't out for another two days, be patient
voice sounds like shit
obama!
SODA!!!!
>Body swap episode
>Cool sci-fi concept
Fricking based. I want to see Summer and Beth swap.
What do we think of Rick's voice acting here? I think it's pretty spot on.
same as before, some lines are identical but there's still a bit of a difference - especially when he's upset and getting agitated imo.
honestly it's a good substitute and i'm sure he'll get better over time too
>0:30
I thought the inflection was a little off, can't put my finger on why. Like the emphasis was on the wrong words
>I waste *MY BRAIN*?
should be
>*I* waste *MY* brain?
It’s not Roiland’s Rick but it’s a Rick.
Honestly, even though you can hear subtle differences, I think the replacement is very passable.
The replacement is close enough to perfect to the point where you really can't complain.
The problem the show has had for several seasons is the fricking writing. And that hasn't changed. And with everything about Roiland being totally disconnected from the show's writing replacing him as the voice actually doesn't fix the problems with the show or any of the production.

I dont know why folks are saying its a body swap episode. Its a Tulvix episode. Its even called Jerrik
That’s cool too.
Maybe Rick and Jerry share a body and THEN have to frick Beth, together, to save their marriage or something. That would make the Parent Trap reference work.
Curious to see how Morty's VA holds up in this episode.
She can't do the crack/high voice when he gets nervous.
Jerrick would either be the perfect person or an absolute mess.
this tripe is still going? worse than the simpsons
i just waiting for this show to reveal that jerry patheticness is some form of entity on it own made be the universe itself to counter Rick super genious trying to be ''META''

I'll watch this if Summer and Morty also switch minds for some reason.
Intelligence is genetic though. How does a super genius like Rick not know that?
>S7E2
Wait, season 7 has started coming out?
yeah and the 1st episode is already garbage
Did they have someone else voice Rick, Morty, and like half of other characters?
it really wasn't that bad it was as good(decent) as the last few seasons
it was a shit complete nothingburger of an episode. Terrible way to start the season.
>Terrible way to start the season.
better than season 5's open
everything past season 2 was shit anyways
