I do not see why I should be prohibited from using profanity in reference to a show that relies on it, but very well.
You should ask Rick why he drinks, really, why is it his thing, and maybe, reluctantly, he will tell you that he is an alcoholic in order to avoid being an obviously annoying Marty Stu. He is not quitting either, because he needs to forget that in spite of being able to slide between infinite universes (among other tings), he always ends up trapped in the same formula of a derivative animated comedy show, with it's lame dumb comic relief character, frustrated handler of said, evil genius something, and kids that have to keep the "nukular" family together. At least in SP the family was replaced by a school clique. He also has to drink away the shame of the string of gags and plots heavily lifted from other shows, and references, Kali (slayer of Raktabija) save us from the endless referencing. They will stop in the middle of minecrafting because SP "already did it" and yet have no problem getting schwifty, even though it is not nearly as good (understatement) as previous versions. Let us not forget the fans and merchandise. Soon they'll run out of material to rip and will have to resort to making another self referential joke about the lame drones buying and wearing their merch. I look forward to it.
On a positive note, battery was a remake done mostly right, mind blowers was slightly better than the other anthology ripoff, citadel was probably the most original and best of the lot and there were generally some decent gags in the second half of the third season, but that is not saying much given the ratio.
