I HATE RICKS BACKSTORY SO FUCKING MUCH
#IT SUCKS!!! IT SUCKS!!! IT SUCKS!!!#its soooo obviously just so hes easier to digest and woobify by both the writers and the fandom. its so obviously not planned ahead. ITS BAD#rick goes from being a sad character as in. heres this adult senior man whos only real close confidant is his 14y/o grandson#who he is regularly verbally abusive to because he needs that sense of control in his life after existing in a multiverse that has forced-#pop nihilism onto him as a survival strategy. THIS IS PATHETIC AND IT MAKES HIM A COMPELLING CHARACTER!!!#but then they take seadon 3s meme joke not serious backstory that is so obviously making fun of that trope and theyre like#lets make it canon. actually. wouldnt that be cool#to me its reminant of like when fandoms take a stupid mocking joke thats made in passing and misinterpret it as sincere#UUUGGGGGHHHHHHHH#AND FUCKING DIANE!!! IS COMPLETELT ROBBED OF ANY CHANCE TO BE A CHARACTER AND EXIST OR DO ANYTHING!!!#SHE ONLY EXISTS SO THE AUDIENCE CAN SYMPATHISE WITH RICK#thats the only reason for this backstory. so that rick is sad and you feel bad for him because his life sucks actually#hes recontextualized from a character who is ultimately his own biggest weakness into a character who just had a tough time.#dont you just feel so bad for him
