    I've been interested in maybe starting the show recently but this disgusting, stupid cluster fuck really soured my appetite. Fandoms are so stupid and entitled and just ugh.

    All this grief over promotional sauce and no one dares to mention the chopped beefsteak sandwich. A meal deemed not only a success but also one of the best meals ever offered to the McDonald's customer base of the 70's but pulled from the menu because it was priced at over three times more expensive than the regular burger and ultimately out of reach of the average customer at the time.

    You're not alone. This sauce craze ruined it for me also.

    What's so special about Szechuan Sauce anyway? I mean I understand it was to promote Mulan and all but really? Szechuan Sauce? I just don't understand that.

    The show is great, don't let the fandom disuade you.

    But I think Rick put it best when he said "think for yourselves, don't be sheep."

    Agreed, unless you see Rick stand up and make a heartfelt plea to McDonald's on behalf of the fandom to reinstate the sauce fulltime to their menu then there's no reason to hate the show.

    I don't understand the question.

    Are you asking about people who shout "Pickle Rick"?
    Because I dare to offer his response to that.

    What does that have to do with what he said? I'm still not getting your point.

    Okay... I think I see what you are up to.
    And that goes back to what Split lip said. Enjoy the show for what it is not what the idiot masses think it is.
    Unless the show changes to start catering to the wants of the more ignorant fanbase then you should be good.

    I guess you're right. Maybe in a year or two when Season 4 is around. Why the Sauce was the straw that broke the camel's back I will never know.

    Don't let the fandom influence you. Watch it from scratch. If you like it, it was due to your experience, not someone else's. If you don't, you move on to the next series :thumb

    I wonder how many TF fans quit when the fanbase got worse than they thought.

    Speaking of TF, I actually wanted to see if this show introduces a Megatron Parody.

    Great news, the next third-person Sonic game lets you play as your own OC.

    Ebay:
    It's easy to balme a corporation for not supplying enough of something nobody wanted when it was originally available just because you went without.
    Is Rick and Morty a huge mainstream thing? No it's not.
    If this were an official Simpsons promotion advertised worldwide, and they handled it the same, you would have a point.

    But this was something they did to test the waters with what they thought was a small subculture on the internet.
    When was the last time you saw a large corporation run a promotion targeted at such a subculture and see incredible results?
    Grow up, the sauce wasn't very good when it was out, a superior version is freely available in every Asian market, if you're curious go get that and don't follow fads that were started by idiots who didn't get a joke and decided to base their lives on their misinterpretation.
