Yeah, we're only assured that they're brownies because Jerry and the dumbest Rick in the multiverse say so. I'm not sure that's the hill I want to die on. That brown stuff could be literally anything. Maybe it smells like brownies, but it's so massively poisonous that eating even one bite not only kills you, but all of your immediate relatives, too--even if they're thousands of miles away.

Well if it's any consolation, and if you're not a subscriber to the death of the author 100%, I remember that Harmon said that he wished they had made dumbest Rick make cupcakes instead of brownies to eliminate this "poo poo" ambiguity, because it definitely wasn't poo poo.

He's only a dick to other Ricks that he has serious disagreements with. At the end of the Council of Ricks episode, he sees that Jerry is in love with the "dumb" Rick*, and says "I've got like ten Ricks to call." (Not an actual quote; just an approximation.) So Rick has Rick-friends.

He also invited a couple of Rick Councilmen to his party in Ricksy Business.

Also the poo poo ambiguity made the brownies funny. Without it all that remains is Jerry and ShitRick bonding, and there's no place for that poo poo in my cartoons.

I didn't even make the poo poo/brownies connection, and I still enjoyed the scene because the idea of mixing a few chemicals together to have instant no bake brownies is entertaining enough.

I mean the joke is obviously that this Rick would use his scientific knowledge for something totally innocuous. Why would he use the chemicals to make poo brownies?

How would you even make poop, chemically speaking? a big part of what makes it poop is where it comes from. Otherwise it's just mushed up food with a lot of the nutrients taken out. You could just boil it for a day or two.. why am I even talking about this? drat this thread!

It was probably just like, one time by accident. Like remember that time Snuffles Snowball became sentient and stuff happened and Morty poo poo himself and Rick got some in his mouth while putting the dream thing on his head or something? That probably happened in nice Rick's universe too, except all the other Ricks don't let him forget it ever, because gently caress nice Rick.

Just powered through the second season, and I enjoyed a lot more than the first, which suffered from a bit of hype for me. The only thing I don't like is those sad endings accompanied by a song, it always feels like they're trying to force an emotional pay-off when it doesn't necessarily gel with comedy.

e: But come to think of it, there were only two, so it's not even a big deal.

I would like to believe that Doofus Rick actually helped his Earth in some way, like finding an eco-friendly means to convert human waste into a delicious food source, and the other Ricks just can't help being giant dicks because he eats his own poo poo.

It's also a lot of bacteria by weight, so after boiling up that food be sure to leave it out for a couple of days before serving it to your guests.

This was pretty much my assumption, as well.

Plus, it means the other Ricks are technically correct. The best kind of correct.

Twitter is incredibly dangerous for celebrities. Like, it's just a constantly stream of bile coming towards them 24 hours a day. They'll have one lovely night and rant back, and the entire world will never, ever forget it. Most of them learn after it's happened once or twice and just stop using twitter. Celebrities delete their Twitter accounts like all the drat time now.

I didn't read the whole thing, but from what I saw, it's not much different from half the poo poo on SA, so whatever. I enjoy watching R&M, and if the price we all must pay for R&M to exist is that some guy on Twitter gets chewed out ever now and then, I can live with it.

On his podcast, Dan has talked about Twitter. He used to harass people who gave him poo poo until they gave up and blocked him -- he took it as a mark of pride. More recently, he's been blocking people instead, but maybe he's backsliding into his old behavior.
