Somebody has to be a Morty.  You would be one of the tortured Morties on the Dome of Morties ;-(
Morty's great.  He's a very compassionate, conscientious kid.  And he shows signs of increasing intelligence and adaptability.  He's the Donna Noble to Rick's Doctor Who, even including the memory manipulation.

He's pretty easy-going and amiable, but he's also surprisingly vindictive.  "You like that?!  You want me to cut to three weeks earlier, when you were alive?"

I would probably be a Morty, and I am okay with that. There are some pretty good Mortys out there.

Personally, I really liked Hammer Morty.

Sorry, I don't see you as the Thunderdome Morty ...

I have a theory.  When Rick's out of the picture, Jerry flourishes.

I think that is the best single sentence about Jerry I've ever read.  Rick basically ruins Jerry's life.
Atheist born, atheist bred.  And when I die, atheist dead!

Nobody has let me be a father-in-law yet ... but I keep hoping.  Usually the mother-in-law plays the villain ;-)

I just want to say that the R&M comics are glorious.  They're not always drawn super well, but they maintain enough of both the art style and writing of the TV show to be the next best thing to new episodes.

Here's a fairly representative sample:

I am an existential nihilist ... like Kierkegaard.  So bite me.

I thought you considered nihilism to be "going full retard."

Born under one law, to another bound;
Vainly begot, and yet forbidden vanity,
Created sick, commanded to be sound."

Which one?  I believe Unbeliever (snicker) claims to be of the Cosmic Type.  MikeCL is of the Existentialist Type (I think) ... that is why we get along.

The ultimate nihilism is that nihilism is meaningless ... but I don't know anyone willing to take that up ;-)

I think I identify best with cosmic nihilism.

I don't think there's anything inherently special about human brains, just that the configuration of human brains is such that we're able to have an (anthropic) Experience.
