I've seen fun you people wouldn't believe.
Tiki torches on fire off the summit of Kilauea.
I watched disco balls glitter in the dark near the Brandenburg Gate.
All those moments will be lost in time, like crowds in rain.

Time to sleep.

A fairly apt representation of the thread, hell, most threads.

Post more things to watch or look at thread, that's the only way to stay sane!

"compliments of". And the next thing it says is "your debt is...".

You could argue that means it's free and that was his pre-GalFed debt converted to credits but then I would hate you.

So yes.

Not arguing. Just poking fun at the people who are. My assumption was that the gag is meant to be taken at face-value and that that taking the pills are what put him into debt. The "compliments of" was likely an oversight or part of the joke. Maybe it was actually "complements of".

It won't be resolved until I go to the comic con R&M thing next year to ask Roiland personally. it will cost thousands but sometimes thats the price you pay to be right on the internet.

I'd argue that Sleepy Gary was converted to real for at least a portion of the episode, but upon Rick learning how close he was with Jerry, reverted back to a parasite. remember rick knows he is in a TV show and can most likely manipulate reality. see: choreographed dance

I thought that it was more "Sleepy Gary needed to justify his presence, and Jerry couldn't be Beth's wife since everyone else was so happy so they needed to rearrange the family dynamic".

I think my favorite running joke in the series is the Doctor Hierarchy. Human Doctor is best, Horse Doctor is way below that, but still above Deer Doctor and Snake Doctor, although Snake Doctors would argue that point.

Yeah, I was probably exaggerating, but that means we have a few months to a year until it gets bad. Then eventually an amazing one will happen and it'll be extra funny in light of all the bad ones.

I honestly don't know, I mean that's not the original SMB3 it's Super Mario Bros. All-Stars (I think), and I just don't remember if you could kill it in the original.

Yep you could, even in the original.

Invuln star, etc. worked on it. Jumping on it would kill you. In the video he kills it with a turtle shell, which also works. I can't remember if Fireballs could kill it; I don't think they could.

Also much like the cloud spikey spawner (not exactly a Mario expert on names unfortunately) I am 99% sure it would respawn if you hung out for too long on the map after you killed it.

Yeah I think the racoon tail would (although the timing is risky) but I am pretty sure it just absorbs the fireballs like buzzy beetles

Well, someone (Typical) who worked on the show already said it was the pills putting Jerry in debt, so I think it's pretty much resolved. Moving on.

I'm rewatching Season 2 and pretty much every episode they vaguely namedrop the Galactic Federation. Kind of reminds me the second season of Deep Space 9, when they were building up the Dominion and ended it with a big reveal and a cliffhanger.

I'm just so so glad that Jerry can't even correctly get a job. So many opportunities probably sprang up now that Earth is all connected to the galactic tourist business, and he loving winds up working for the government that just locked up his father-in-law.

Jerry happily being a cog in the new government and complaining that it's Rick's fault he's unemployed whenever earth is inevitably freed from their control will be very good I am sure

There's no reason to assume Jerry's going to be working for the Galactic Federation. Not everybody in the real world who goes to the unemployment office gets a government job.
