Rick and Morty: The Philosophy of Szechuan Sauce - Wisecrack Edition 

Sean Kurzman It certainly worked! I completely forgot that sauce ever existed in the first place untill this episode came out. I also want some now. If Mc'ds brings it back it'll sell like hotcakes, solely due to the show no less.

Good point. They also mentioned pogs and I haven't seen those in years

I felt the same way. Everyone is talk about the sauce and I would bet that a good percent of the fans are in their 20's therefore never ate the sauce. We all need to think for ourselves and stop being a bunch of Jerrys

We really are a bunch of Jerrys aren't we

I have mentioned this sauce to several people in my life. I ate it when the movie was out and when the promo ended, my life was less rich. Of all the people I've asked over the years, only my sister remembers the holy sauce, since we ate it together at the time...

UltimateKyuubiFox Thank you, some great points! Also, this youtuber clearly forgot about Rick's suicide attempt after the break up with Unity...

UltimateKyuubiFox Indeed, great point. Rick saying he only saved them so his daughter does not kick him out is nonsensical and self-contradictory because it would've been easier for him to just live anywhere else in the multiverse.

UltimateKyuubiFox it doesn't really matter if you think he is a coward or he is trying to find meaning because at the end it all ends being an absurd meaningless thing at the basic level like how u r trying to find neaning in that there should be a reason why he Rick is a nihilist.....

Maybe he's just a drunk...

Naveen Shekhar Nihilism might make logical sense, but it's definitely not the core of Rick's worldview and we have several on-screen examples of familial empathy on Rick's part to prove that. If Jared wanted to make a video discussing these concepts at length, he could just as easily have pointed out that Rick is still incapable of fully committing to his supposed nihilism, and is, in fact, a hypocrite. I don't fault the effort to go into detail about the philosophy R&M deals with, I just want to make sure we don't overlook the subtext of the episode with regards to Rick's character in order to do so.

Julian Rivera And when Justin and Dan were joking about how some fan were going to kill themselves if they didn't get 100 years of Rick and Morty.

Maybe they produce a last episode and give it to later genarations to release it. I would totaly hate them for such a move :D

I'm A Member of the Midnight Crew so I think it's the same for the sauce, it's just a joke, of course it is (as Rick and Morty is a commedy), and, even though it is funny to imagine what all this should mean in the series, it's a bit stupid

Dont agree with this argument. If nothing has meaning and one doesnt chicken out with meaning the only thing left is basic gratificatiin (sex, drugs alcohol, pleasure) in short endorphins. For Rick the univers becoms a playground to get gratification. The sezchuan sauce explains this perfectly. Why? 1. It is food - which is a instant gratification 2. It is not a drug which would achieve the same effect (two electrodes in the brain and the pleasure would cancle out everything else. BUT 3. Rick doesnt take this road which implies that the how is important for him which comes to point 4 4. He needs to validate his own worth the not existence of the sezchuan sauce in all universes is a challange to himself a seek for push himselfe. 5. At the marriage we see Rick is still capable of emotion and openung up so the last question is. 6. Is the seek for challanges a way for Rick to dull himself from the existencial crises or is it a need that is something more (retribution? Validation?)

Martin Sonderegger 4. Since it's a infinite multiverse, not just one but hundreds of universes with sezchuan sauce are there for Rick to enjoy if he wants to. There's nothing actually special in the sauce. 5. His past was a fake. Go do your homework

Wubba Lubba Dub Dub!

I've seen a lot people type this on multiple videos but it never fails to be funny.

" That's my one-arm man. " What does that phrase means?

Reference to The Fugitive

I was wondering why Rick said 97 years, until I rewatched the pilot episode where Rick said, in the same spot as season 3 "100 years Rick and Morty". This is the third season which I guess is the third year of their adventures

This ^^^^ Rick wants the universe to be meaningless but struggles with caring.

I'm not quite sure whether that was real or sarcasm :D

Yeah I do think the same, Rick just can't cope with being honest and giving warmth to other people, even if he wants inside of himself.

more agree witg your comment than with the video

This is true. There are many small examples in the show where Rick acts in a kind way despite himself, especially when he doesn't need to do so. Just off the top of my head, the episode where Rick buys Morty the sex doll because Morty says it "looks cool." He didn't need to do that, and in fact, it potentially put him at risk with Beth, the matriarch of the household (and the person that ensures he has a place to live that provides him with the company of others, something he desperately needs, despite his repeated attempts to remain aloof). His relationship with Bird Person is also indicative of a deeper desire for meaning (the two of them fight in the name of freedom against the galactic government) and the value he placed on that relationship is obvious to the viewer, especially after Bird Person is killed. Rick is a tortured soul, grappling with the knowledge that there is no inherent meaning in the universe, and that caring about others often leads to pain and is usually not worth the trouble, while still desiring, deep down, companionship and meaning in life. He is deeply cynical and calculating, but he doesn't *want* to be cynical and he is only calculating because it helps him survive. He is an anarchist, not because he is an ideologue, but because he has no respect for authority (Rick is arguably the smartest man in the galaxy, after all; he is powerful beyond reckoning because of his level of knowledge and ingenuity) and because he enjoys his freedom to experience and experiment in the multiverse. One could argue that it is the journey, the "adventure," that gives his life meaning, and good adventures always have conflict. What I'm trying to say here is that actions speak louder than words, especially in *this* show, and Rick's actions give the lie to his words on many occasions. I am agreeing with you in that his words cannot be trusted, but I would also add that he is an agent of chaos, a Nietzschean overman at war with those who would attempt to control and/or contain him, but that this fact, the fact that he is a bit of a demigod, does not make him devoid of the human desires for meaning and deep relationships. He is, begrudgingly, as you argue, more like Dostoyevsky than he is like Camus. And that's actually a good thing. Fuck Camus and his "cooler-than-thou, seen-it-all" bullshit pretense. He was human, just like the rest of us, and every human living desires meaning; no-one wants to simply "exist" when there is a way to be more. That is a big part of what separates us from other animals; mere survival is not enough. We need more. Otherwise, why act at all? Why continue to exist if there is never any possibility of creating or finding meaning?

he was more than just a hammer

Reuben Stump no he live

Patrick De Brun Yeah... He was a very effective human shield...

Reuben Stump the one true morty

Pff, that guy was a tool.

HE WHO CONTROLS THE SZECHUAN SAUCE CONTROLS THE GALAXY!

Gpc Caraballo Jera and blank card= infinite Szechuan Sauce!

too bad batteries' RNG is never on my side

chluebi reference from the movie Dune

He who controls the spices controls the galaxies

@authorization batman nobody asked you for “motivation “ asshole

Asher Rwakiseeta It's amazing how much they're fucking milking this shitty series. It's amazing how much the cancerous fanbase loves to eat this shit up.

Just think of how less cancerous I will become when I learn all these philosophical theories just by watching the Rick and Morty episodes of this show..... Nah. Why bother with that. Not like it would change anything. (did I hit the point?)

Coming form Hillary Clinton of all usernames.

The real question is: Why do you Care SO much?!?

e celeb bullshit I'm not bashing Rick and Morty, I actually like it (as controversial as it is). I just find it absurd how Wisecrack can find meaning in such a satirical show that doesn't take anything seriously

myky992 it's crazy to think about, but yeah rick definitely cares about his family

I'm probably just letting my mind go too far with this, but I wonder if maybe Morty will become so similar to Rick (we're already seeing signs of that) that something will happen that jolts Rick into realizing that despite everything being pointless he still cares - and that wouldn't make too much of a change in his lifestyle but maybe it'll make him a little happier?

myky992 That was only one alternate version. Who knows, maybe if reality was split into even more pieces, he would have a version where he killed Morty.

myky992 I think the creators are intentionally leaving it as ambiguous as possible so that the audience can come up with their own interpretations as desired. Maybe Rick doesn't care? Maybe he does and just pretends he doesn't? No one knows, not even him.

but that's different rick from a different universe, so it's different.

Luke William it's not the same. Like when you eat chicken nuggets from McDonald's why isn't it the same as chicken nuggets from the grocery store.

Luke William because you didn't make the nuggets yourself?

becausee... SZECHUAN SAAAAUUCEEE (and pickle rick)

if you work hard to obtain something, it has special meaning and you will enjoy it infinitely more than someone who has everything thing they want giving to them without any effort whatsoever. ... why are Lobsters and Caviar considered a delicacy when they are just Sea Bugs and Fish Eggs?, why do hipsters collect old vinyl records and record players when you can download MP3s?, why do people restore antiques when they could just order furniture from IKEA?, its because when something is rare and limited supply, it artificially inflates the perceived value of the thing. the meaning is in the journey to obtain it, not the actual thing itself.

nunya baznus Sounds superficial.

Fitzftw7 He said that because it was a joke that was suposed to break the 4th wall, the same way he said "9 more seasons". It's clear that the backstory was a lie, you just want to believe it wasn't because you want to find some meaning. If this episode proves anything is that we would never get and insight of Ricks mind.

I think a better read is Rick is motivated by several things, some contradictory (like everyone else), and navigating that is the real absurdity. It is completely possible to care about family or whatever to some degree and in the same breath long for the abyss. In a sense the lucid indifference is a poisoned fruit in that breaking tradition becomes a tradition in itself, belief in the absurd is still a belief, and even the absurd hero is divorced from the universe, not believing he is absurd himself. Nope, the the real absurdist position is to jump headlong into the abyss a la the theist existentialists and do something like work for the government as that is the most pointless endeavor in the known universe. Needs more Gogol.

Augusto T He knows that he's a cartoon and that the meaning of his existence is to be a source of entrainment for the viewer.

@Augusto T: Eeh, we'll see. This video raises an interesting point, but its main drawback is that it takes the singular Season 3 episode to be all the information available. Sure, it currently is, but I don't believe we can confidently claim an absurdist viewpoint before seeing what happens next. For now, I shall remain convinced that the "fake backstory" is actually the real thing - and that Rick denouncing it as a charade, as well as his newly-acquired obsession with special sauce, is misdirection.

Augusto T isn't the fact that Rick spends the whole of this episode reuniting his family, and him in it, tell us that at the very least he wants to be with them? I would say that "caring" is probably not the right word, but he wants to be around them(especially Morty, the closest thing he has to a Son) you could speculate that being around the people that are the closest to you (biologically/family) it's his preferred way of distracting himself from his painful pointless existence... suits me ! :D

DaManOfStuff Do you have a source on this information, or are you just guessing?

Okay, if it's true, I'm going to two packets of the Szechun Sauce. One to try for myself, and the other to send to Rick. LOL

only to be.. another simulation ! got you suckers ! ! !

J1P2K That's impossible a multiverse has infinite universes

Serpent Soldier then there's a universe where the multiverse doesn't exist

Daxuran wow you are a genius!

This was my thought exactly. They kind of painted themselves in a corner with the infinite universe thing. Tho the show is epic regardless.

I think you underestimate just how big infinite is. Like Rick said, it would take him 97 years to find that sauce.

Supa Kron How do you explain the fact that he found the perfect universe to move to after the Love potion incident? Seems to me that it's very easy for him

wubalubadubdub!

Probably knew that it would benefit him somehow.

Maybe he has felt responsible for dragging his grand kinds into problems by making party then stopping time which finally caused time problems.

Nah thats all planned. since he has to assume all other Ricks are waiting for their Mortys to synch up, he has to fix his Morty first. Saving himself wouldnt do anything, because all the other Ricks would still be stuck helping their Mortys, preventing him from synching up even if he put the collar on.

Bennett -Redacted- maybe he does at least somewhat care about Morty and only says he doesn't because he doesn't wanna be vulnerable and doesn't want Morty to get too self-confident (like he said in Rick-counters of the rick kind: "a cocky Morty can lead to some big problems")

Katie H : Being an absurdist doesn't mean you can't enjoy things/life/others. Absurdists accept that things do not have an inherit meaning/ absolute & accept the absurdity that it is part of human nature to look for meaning (where there inevitably is none.) -Camus says "you must imagine sisyphus as happy" (the man pushing the boulder only to have it roll back down hill & cause him to start this process over again for all eternity.) -the absurdist believes questioning one's meaning should not lead to their physical suicide or "philosophical suicide" which is believing in religion as a "leap of faith" in order to find meaning in the meaningless or as a way to willfully ignore the absurd nature of existence. -The absurdist must accept & then revolt against his own absurd nature, stay alive, and search for meaning in their own way knowing they probably won't find any or if they do that any meaning found is not inherit, so others will not have the same meaning on it. (the Absurd hero) -Camus had a daughter who he loved. Rick has a daughter he loves (beth) as well as her child (morty.) -Rick's quest for meaning motivates him to become the patriarch of his family even if it means destroying the whole government & now he is also motivated by his 9 season quest to bring back the Mulan sauce.(which has no inherit meaning to all people but does have meaning to rick as an absurd hero who will probably find no meaning in the sauce but find meaning in his family & position in said family.

Jon Carrillo Fox: He also couldve probably also gotten a new portal gun from the Citadel of Ricks and teleported to a dimension where they didnt go to the wedding. So probably

Well we know for a fact that Rick and Morty already aren't with their original family.

jakx2ob oh, how is that? I heard from the other videos that we could be following a different family but how are this Rick and Morty with a different family then their own? thanks,

Jon Carrillo They destroyed dimension C137 with a kronenburg( ?) epidemic, forcing them to go to another dimension where the world was still fine and their alternate selves are killed. Now C137 rick and morty are living with a different family that is not their original one. So why Rick cared about Summer is unknown. Many also theorize that Morty is not C137 Rick's original Morty, since some of his memories don't add up.

Jon Carrillo Fox: in the season 3 premiere we see that Mortys first family is still the ones in kronenbuer land and that the Rick and morty from the current dimension are dead in the backyard still. So pretty sure its the same dimension

Periphery, check it out!

Graaaasssss tastes bad.

Luke William I don’t giiiiive a fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck😂😂😂. These catchphrases though

Yesss omg didn't think about that till you mentioned it

It also parallels the concept of missing caring about things in a world that he can no longer logically care about.

Ryan Luster "I'm Mr. Meseeks! Look at me!"

NOOOOOOO!!! NO MORE MESEEKS!!!!!!!!

Joshua Collins I hate kids, but I would kill a molester.

But you're capable of empathizing which means you have humanity.

It was all so he could get closer to thAT MULAN SZESCHUAN TERIYAKI DIPPING SAUCE!

LittleRock Clydesdale with Rick it was most likely so he wouldn't lose his human cloaking shield

the reality is that rick needs to appear human at times so we the viewer actually care about his character. Whether he cares or not is never fully stated to keep us on our toes. By dropping hints that, yes he does give a shit, compels us to root for him through out the show. Instead of viewing him as a heartless borderline abusive mad scientist who doesn't care what so ever. also morty was (for the most part) ok. he hadn't sustained any physical injuries that threatened his health and if anything the phycological damage could have been used to make him even more dependant on rick. But the creators of the show aren't dicks so they gave rick a touch of sympathy.

Carzeyday Indeed. It is kind of dumb how few people point out that Rick could easily just build a device that makes sauce so he can have as much as he wants. Which means the sauce has to be a metaphor for something else entirely.

(actually looked It up.It is on google to make) Rick's whole mission was to wipe out the council of ricks and the GF when they become intertwined with him. Both are extremes and actual Mirrors of what this existentialism can lead to. the GF will do not nothing unless they are paid and everything is centered around money and the Ricks only care for their safety hiding in a multidimensional Irony tower as they more or less heard Mortie's like cattle to be given to a Rick. The reason is simple,GF are more or less gonna make earth a hellhole. And The Ricks no matter what. Will come looking for Rick or even take his Morty. Second, they have already jumped demissions once. And not to a timline with a living Rick and Morty,but right when they die. Filling in the void that would of been caused.The Timeline they left is still around. With that Jerry,Beth and Summer still in a Normbrug world with a normbrug rick and Morty in It now. Also,If his goal is ultimate "nothing matters but fucking with everything". He would have already left and like brained controlled Morty or someshit. He would not care for aprroval,What's Jerry gonna do? Build a dimissonal jumping device? I think the truth is this,Rick and Morty is more Character driven then world driven. So,you have to read character motives and not the symbolism of their talk. It is more "why on earth would they lie?" vs "What is the meaning of the lie?" The real question however is this. How much of his past is actually a lie and how much is truth?

But Rick lost his ability to improvise. He said so himself. The sauce has to have real world meaning to him.

Koopa Goopa no 97 seasons over 9 years

wrong way round, it is 9 seasons over 97 years

WolfOfLegend idiot

9 Seasons....and a movie.

inSANE like the Polynesian sauce at Chic-fill-a

Fernando Acuna LIKE LIFES MILK

Fernando Acuna like the Szchesuan sauce at McDonald's

an Average Cat 16 how does that taste 😂😂

rod9095 how do both those taste?😂

You do know,you could look up how to make It right?

i noticed that too, why doesn't he just MAKE the dipping sauce? i mean, they DO have sci-fi weapons and spaceships, so couldn't he just read what's inside of it and make it himself with one of his creations?

Rick Sanchez oh no I'm having 6 seasons and a movie flashbacks, I can't do this again

Or he could go to a dimension where it is still served.

Carzeyday Oh how nieve you are...I doubt that anyone can recreate this sauce. it's too good for most human minds to recreate. Plus, if hardly anyone has memory of what it tasted like, then it's nearly impossible. Also, I've attempted to recreate it over the years and details on how it was made are scarce...

joe miskell Yeah we all need meaning, or do we?

joe miskell There's a video on how to make your own. Besides McDonald's probably won't out of fear of being criticized for cultural appropriation or denigration.

Ron Nickels make it the same flavour but call it a Rick Sauce.

Ron Nickels Actuallu, your mistaken and clearly you learned nothing from the video. McDonald's doesn't care about denigration and cultural appropriation. They just want us to eat their shit and make money. Hence the head chef of McDonald's hinting that popular demand would bring it back. Also the live action movie of Mulan makes the perfect circumstances.

Really? This is what came down from the 9:56 video?

Roberto Blake because you're a sheep

Infinite realities but no sauce found yet.

Heh. As a subscriber i didn't expect to see you here

I had it, not so good. It's a fast food teriyaki. Better than teriyaki wing sauce, but not by much. It's like ICK! It was loved only because ot the movie's popularity.

Ew

Hardcore Bunny Nice catch

Hardcore Bunny Hmmm interesting!

Hardcore Bunny well idiots will find meaning in whatever vague association they want. That's why people think sugar causes cancer.

Sugar does cause cancer. Sugar is one of the substances that allows the continuation of mitosis as a necessary ingredient in human functionality, and thus through means, propagates cancer. It just causes it as much as anything we eat, breath, and radiation poisoning we get standing in front of a microwave. Just not in the way we think.

+furyberserk Microwave ovens do not give you radiation poisoning. The mesh is small enough to block microwaves like a Faraday cage, and failing that, microwaves are not a form of high energy "ionising radiation" such as Xrays or gamma rays, and as such will not strip electrons from your atoms, turning them into ions and potentially damaging your DNA, leading to radiation poisoning and cancer. _Visible light_ is a form of radiation, it's all part of the electromagnetic spectrum, but will not give you cancer. _INB4: "NEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEERRRRRRD!"_

Holy crap you're right!

I never noticed that even though Breaking Bad is my favorite show

i din't notice that untill you mentioned omfg

Money 1217 "3 months later" Well that didn't go well.

That's racist.

3 Years later

maybe thats the kicker. maybe there just isnt a universe with the teriyaki sauce.

But that doesn't make any sense. Rick has a box in the garage that says "Time travel stuff" so clearly he can just travel back in time to when the sauce was being served.

having a box that says "time travel stuff" doesn't necessarily mean he heas acquired time travel technology, and also I think the writers have said they don't plan on having any kind of time travel in the show

zoranhacker they said it's lazy writing and they won't touch it. I'm honestly really happy that they won't open that can of worms.

+jeremiah ronduelas I heard somewhere that they put the time travel stuff on the shelf to symbolize "putting it on the shelf".the idea was that Rick tried to timetravel a long time ago but never could. Basically yeah, they dont want to write time travel stuff.

BECAUSE I NEED THAT uuuuUURRP SZECHUAN uUuRp SAUCE MORRRTYYYYYYY

He will wait 97 more years for that sauce, Morty. Or 9 seasons.

The next 9 seasons will play out over the entirety of 97 years.

I just want to love and be loved.

As stupid as that sounds I would be interested to see where he could take it.

Bayu Nugraha The first 3 seasons!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Spongebob!!!

... If you didn't realize, this channel has more "mature" and intelligent videos, not videos about stupid TV Shows, Spongebob is made for children, there's no philosophy there.

Coolbreon Then I don't know if you've really watched the show.. It was genius

Coolbreon ...You have a pokemon as your avatar. Just pointing out the irony.

Was that why he left Summer in Cronenburg world?

He could also probably reverse-engineer the sauce so he can make his own that is identical to the sauce right down to the molecular level.

aacsmiles Do you really think Rick didn't try? Do you know how often Rick goes to different dimensions, he's probably mapping out the Dimensions trying to find a sauce, it's an infinite universe it will take a long time, about 97 years if he's lucky.

I want to like this comment, but the geek in me doesn't want to ruin the 42 likes count. ... Meh, feck it. At some point someone is going to ruin it, and it might as well be me. Life, the universe, and everything is meaningless anyway.

Robert Larsson Whether or not Rick cares about Summer and the rest of his family is up to debate, but it's already proven in S03E06 (Rest and Ricklaxation) that he does care about Morty, just that he sees it as a negative thing.

kamaruegabri GRAAASSSSS...... tastes bad...

kamaruegabri Fuck off you aren't funny

teamstarpug Please change your name to grumpy pug. Fits better

teamstarpug neither are you but you can't seem to shut the fuck up. if you're a troll you have no wit or bait power.

Haha, I'm afraid you're right. Wubba lubba dub dub! Hahaha.

Esmeralda Nugis why are you in great pain, my friend?

Yes but Existentialism isn't quite the same as Absurdism. Adsurdism is realizing there is no meaning to life, but making a meaning anyway (regardless of being aware that this is absurd). so, it isn't a stretch (IMO)

That's becoming too technical. Existentialism is a broad umbrella term, that basically means "questioning the meaning of life".

Esmeralda Nugis, don't be in pain... get rickity rickity wrecked bro, instead :>

This.

Blündi Lemeo DAAAAAAN HAAARMON

Blündi Lemeo Yes!!!

More like "Dank Harmon" amirite? amirite? Guys amirite?

yuss

Jonathan Brooks I think Deadpool does similar stuff in marvel comics.

There was a special, called the Lost Episode, in which Rick and Morty experienced a Groundhogs day event in which they kept getting killed. Google Rick and Morty- Lost episode.

+Jonathan Brooks It seems like it's a fanmade episode to me.

It's fan made. But still pretty funny

Thanks for telling me this. I hope I remember this the next time I go to China Town.

atma that was A rick not uh c 1 mmmmm something

atma Well, one sixty-fourth of him saved Morty. While that does indicate that he still has some humanity left in him, 1/64 is not exactly an impressive number

Do Not Remove This Seal wasn't that also the only timeline where the latch was broken tho? u do have a good point, i just thought that since rick seemed pretty confident in his choice, (the fact that time didnt divide after he made his decision) should the same have happened in other timelines he would've done the same thing. or im being an idiot

Poisoned BananaBread Actually it was, he didnt create new timelines, he fractured his own timeline. Thats why there was a paradox and the whole schroedinger thing. So it was rick c-137.

atma WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO ME MORTY???

tonio789 and that's a bad thing?

tonio789 it's their fav

tonio789 let us just ignore that their last video on the show was 2 month ago.

so what?

tonio789 I like it

I kinda want Rick to go crazy looking for Szechuan Sauce. At the end Rick had to pick family or Infinite Szechuan Sauce with the recipe, Rick fucks up and ends up saving his family. Rick looks okay at first but inside the lab he looks defeated because his lifelong Quest still continues.

blueisasomedancer same, actually quite a bit. It honestly could be a pretty good promo for a while, but they could never tie it to rick and morty. Its too mature of a show for Mcdonald's to endorse.

Arram VanSlyke They've replied to them on twitter, so I could see it

And here's why you're thinking is horseshit: Your as dumb as a bag of sand and your slowly dying in a vat. HAHA TINY RICK!!!!!

KGR3 Well, it did come out on april first....

holy shit, that would be a joke the die-hard fans would NOT take lightly, I think. But it is possible they'd do this.

Might just be less bothersome than to move all his shit to another place.

Yeah. I mean, Rick still has an entire secret lab to relocate if he's kicked out of the house.

+Denfry There are different types of intelligence, and multiple theories which seek to explain or model said types. In practical application, consider two geniuses in their specific way: Beethoven and Alexander III aka "Alexander the Great" of Macedon. Both were geniuses in music and military strategy, but that doesn't necessarily translate to the other's field or genius.

Dude, sezchuan sauce is like 3 ingredients. Ofcourse Rick is smart enough to make his own.

The problem is that the original Szechuan Sauce never specify the amount of ingredients used, they just said the names.

but then the quest for the sause would lose all meaning

Denfry it won't be the same

Walter Nelson Extra Thicc!!!

flung back in time by a whole week

Walter Nelson That's why you have to be a fan of both, because then it won't matter and you'll be happy either way.

Kami Reborn yeah I like both shows but now im gonna ne blueballed until summer when we get the rest of s3...

Door Slammer atleast you still have the amazing show samurai jack

It's not mutually exclusive.

Go to the source

Jacob Inglis there is a Mulan movie coming out this year and McDonald's apparently might bring it to promote it again

$100 for a szechuan Sauce？？😂as a chinese I don‘t know why is so crazy

Isak Mattisson Good point! The only reason why Rick would not just bail and jump to a universe where Bird-person never got married is if he actually does care at least a little.

Does he care about his family? He literally left them in a post apocalyptic world that he destroyed.

@@yoloswaggins7121 he cares about his family, but he also knows there are infinite versions of them

@@GippyHappy Yeah I think he cares about the relationships he has. Like all people he wants companionship. But since there are infinite versions of his family available to him, he is not that concerned with any one version of them since he can just find a new ones.

Benjamin Hubble Me too. Dark Souls has a lot of nihilism too, since it never explains whether linking the fires actually helps or not.

There's a difference between Nihilism and Absurdism tho

timemadscientist Greatscot! it sucks that no one really understands what nihilism really is, darksouls is about cyclism,no matter what you do you can't stop the next cycle from comming and to do so only prolongs tragedy. it's about the folly of gods,it's about the ignorance of man,it's about taking a good look at the inevitable, do you prolong the fire because it's all you know? or do you let it fade into darkness,a darkness no one has every witnessed,fear,ignorance and apprehension lye in that darkness.

madscientistshusta yeah, even in this video, the ideas of nihilism and absurdism seem to be getting misattributed to each other

Maor Fadlon ...I thought Fargo was a film, not a series

GRiMOSAUR there is a tv adaptation. it's quite amazing

GRiMOSAUR It's a TV series

Maor Fadlon Does it have a lot of philosophy? better than the movie?

Arron Carter certainly better than the movie. there is an episode that is called "the myth of sisyphus", and they mention it in the episode. so... yeah it has a lot of philosophy.

Mike Nie they're bringing it back

Source?

Mike Nie twitter...

I don't think you understand "Source"... "guys I found out that people fly!" "Source?" "twitter..."

Mike Nie go to mcdonalds twitter and rick and morty's twitter. It takes 5 sec to find it

I'm sorry to hear that ... can I help, somehow?

I hope your pain will heal soon friend.

what im saying is the szechaun sauce is a memory Rick has of his life before he became an unfeeling ghost ala transdimensional omnipotence The point being we all have triggers that take us mentally through the portal that leads to a universe where things are "like the good old days" .

yeah

Cody Cotton what philosophy is there in such a vapid and meaningless show, wait actually don't tell me I don't want to know.

that's an awkward thing to say on a video about a show whose whole shtick is being 'meaningless'

Joshua Holdaway Even pointing out the absurdity of this, your commenting pointing out is also :). Nobody exists on purpose and nobody belongs to any place, * insert something at random *. And also saying this is absurd XD.Wubba lubba dub dub !!!

+Manny Santiago I love this, so, so much! Thank you.

Manny Santiago Chill out, fanboy

You're why people should out there punching R&M fans. I wish someone had brought a fucking automatic to one of those lines at McDonalds. Cunts.
