Your inability to comprehend the original content in its true self (an ego death, as explained by Freud), and falsely interpret it as a super ego, shows your ability to pay attention.

    Yknow, squidward doesn’t fear death. A lot like another character from an animated tv show, the mad genius himself Mr. Rick Sanchez from the hit TV show, “Rick and Marty.” Now this is because believe it or not, they are the same character. Notice the color scheme. Squidward and Rick are both light blue, while spongebob and morty are both yellow and brown. Notice how squidward and Rick are both pessimistic and grumpy. Notice how big squidward’s head is, clearly the right size to hold an intellect as massive as Rick’s. According to an age-old English idiom, “if it looks like a duck and sounds like a duck, then it’s a duck,” or, as I say, “if it looks like a squidward and acts like a squidward, then it’s a squidward,” and in addition to the principle of Occam’s razor, clearly Rick is a continuation of the squidward character, or squidward is a form he turned himself into, much like he did with the funny brine cucumber.

    My favorite line of this video was the line “When I think of Atrioc and why it works so well my mind doesn’t go to Atrioc. In fact it goes to the other streamers like the random chatters, Stanz, or most of all, the streams main antagonist, Ludwig.” It was very profound and deep for my microscopic brain
