There's probably an alternate dimension where they use a different punctuation mark so it's called vertical bar fiction or something.

No slashfic is any fanfiction that centers around a romantic or sexual relationship between two (or more) characters. It's based around sites like Fanfiction.com where pairings, like "Cloud/Aeris" or whatever, were searchable categories in their own right.

One of the things I really liked about this episode is that it feels like a Twilight Zone episode, told from the perspective of The Devil instead of whatever poor dude he's tormenting. Especially the ending. It is TZ as fuuuuuuck.

Even if Summer can legally consent to sex, she's still a minor. She can''t vote and there's certain kinds of contracts she cannot enter into until she turns 18 or receives formal legal emancipation.

Can we now please drop the conversation about whether or not the fictional underage cartoon girl can legally be hosed? Please?

Unless Rick's switched Morties since then and it's been longer than we think.

You're right, though. With the way Rick casually massacred an entire universe in the latest episode, he's definitely done similar things before and none of it mattered to him. Cronenburging Earth didn't even register on his radar.

maybe we can drop it before you decided to poo poo out this weird loving post? like maybe spend 10 less minutes per day thinking about cartoon sex? maybe you can do both of those things?

Mathematically, no. Now if there had there been an infinite number of recursive universes, that would be provably worse.

Alternatively: "Don't think about it!"

Hate to fuel the fire but in Lawnmower Dog didn't Rick say Summer was underage when they saw her in Mr. Goldenfold's dream-Mrs. Pancake's dream-sex-party-dungeon?

Oh wait, that wasn't the question anymore.

Hm.

So, how about that science stuff, huh? Lady Science, she sure- sure is... you sure gotta buckle in and str-strap up for that ride right?

Your existence is a LIE nothing you do matters!

quote:

It is known that there is an infinite number of worlds, simply because there is an infinite amount of space for them to be in. However, not every one of them is inhabited. Therefore, there must be a finite number of inhabited worlds. Any finite number divided by infinity is as near to nothing as makes no odds, so the average population of all the planets in the Universe can be said to be zero. From this it follows that the population of the whole Universe is also zero, and that any people you meet from time to time are merely the products of a deranged imagination.

So, he killed no one.

This was the best part of the episode and with the driftwood line the only reason for Morty to have gone with Rick instead of Summer, since otherwise it seems more in character for her to object to the slavery with extra steps.

If you're gonna quote *that* episode as evidence, then sadly someone else will also quote the other side of it: "Sexual hangups in the pleasure chamber ARE PUNISHABLE BY DEATH!"

Do we really keep this up? I mean, I'm relatively new to SA, but on the one hand goons going from mocking slashfic to arguing the age of consent of a fictional character is probably as goony as one can get. On the other, I kinda don't want my first probation to be on this topic. Don't want to wind up like WickedHate after all.

That's where the logic fails. Any fraction of infinity is still infinity, that's how infinity works. Even if an infinitesimal portion of existing planets have life on them, that still means that there are infinite worlds with life on them.

I also liked how after their mech fight, Rick said "Whoa, Morty, I haven't seen you in months!", totally unconcerned and more surprised that he was still alive on an alien planet in a foreign universe. Always got that free replacement Morty voucher in his back pocket I guess.
