Jerry Discussion

>>94331777
He is stupid, he has no balls and he is a failure.

>>94331804
If you were in Jerry's position what would you do?

>>94331777
I think it relates to what Morty said in the Blooddome: he needs to say what he feels. He needs to stand up to Beth's hypocrisy, he needs to be honest with himself AND his kids instead of hiding it all in fear of not being liked. Basically, he needs to find his own self-esteem, and I'm fairly sure that whatever creature is following him (if there is one) will be the catalyst for this change.

>>94331866
Find a job season ago.

>>94331777
Because he's a man and not an ally.

>>94331938
What does it mean when you say

>> not an ally

>>94331777
If even Morty has bigger balls than Jerry that's something he should think about.

>>94331777
everything youve listed, his wife and rick hating him and having no friends, are his own fault, nobody has to like someone just because, he has to have a personality that people want to be around

>>94331877

This. Jerry needs to take his nuts out of storage.

Jerry needs to make VERY SMALL strides. Start with finding his own self esteem (if you don't like you, why would anyone else?) He needs to get a job somewhere like whole foods, where he can make small accomplishments to make him self feel lke a productive person, where Beth can "run in" to him and see he has (idiot) friends who value him. HOWEVER, Beth is a catch and soon there will be men trying to get that, I think it will be good for Beth to get laid, but she will eventually go back to Jerry/Jerry type when she is hurt by the endless sea of assholes that men comprise. That being said, I love how pathetic Jerry is and I don't want to lose that, but Beth won't get back with him unless he changes as a person, so I like where this is heading. JERRY ADENTURE WHEN???

>>94332155
*ADVENTURE

>>94332155
I don't think Beth ever needs to get back with Jerry. I feel like everyone in this thread is valueing Jerry based on what he can do for others and never questions what others have done for him. I feel that ever since rick moved in his entire family have grown colder and colder toward him. Since the beginning he had the label loser on his head and everyone was watching to see how he would fail. Usually if this is a group of friends you say goodbye and surround yourself with people who bolster yourself esteem and help you move up in life, but when its your immediate family and kids...

Why do you need to "deserve" to get made fun of?

He should kill them.

-Begs his daughter for money.
-Leaves wife in life or death situations on her own (Cronenberg universe Jerry was an exception) constantly
-Ignores and treats kids like shit when there's no emotional benefit for him.
-Acts as if he's the patriarch of the family even though he makes no money and treats kids like shit.
-Spineless, refuses to enter conflict and the few times he did he had no backbone to stand his ground and just folded instantly when confronted.
-Tried to sell out Rick even though he has solicited Rick's science shit multiple times, and not only has Rick has saved his life MULTIPLE times, Rick has intervened in several scenarios where if Rick was not present everyone would be dead (the 'Show Me What You Got' aliens would have destroyed earth for sure).

The only time he's been in the right was his parents weird cuckolding.

>>94332307
People making fun of a person will always highlight that persons flaws and show constrast with their own personal strengths in an effort to say that:

>>We aren't making fun of them for NOOOOOOO reason. They asked for it.

My problem with this is that it is clear that everyone has problems in this episode. But why are Jerry's problems valued less. If any normal person was in Jerry's shoes they might have full on depression and sucidal thoughts but my man is trucking through the abuse.

Thus far in the series, he has manned up twice. The first time was when he told the truth to the Plutonians. The second time, however, was when he held a gun at a surgeon and demanded his penis be used as a replacement heart just because.. it would make him feel good about himself. Is him manning up really a good thing?

>>94331777
He should pull a Lars

>>94332480
Because Jerry needs to be shat on for his own good. We've seen multiple episodes that give evidence to the fact that the only reason Jerry is such a pussy is because he's been living life on easy mode. He got married and had kids at a young age, so he never had to worry about trying to attract a mate. His wife has a high paying job, so he's never had to worry much about his career. The reason Rick walks all over him is because he just isn't equipped to stand up for himself.

In realities where he doesn't get married, he never falls into this slump and ends up successful. In the reality that Rick destroyed, he rose to challenge and ended up successful. Jerry just really needs the adversity in his life so he can grow.

>>94331877
He did, that's what caused the divorce.

>>94331866
Find a job
It's not that fucking hard

>>94332850
Well, maybe Jerry's just a piece of shit, then

The idea that mockery is so injurious that it needs to be "justified" morally, as if it were physical force, is complete horseshit.

The only justification you need to mock someone is the fact that you want to mock them.

The role of a father is to take charge of your family and steer their direction onto a positive course. I can understand how Jerry might feel helpless when Rick constantly takes Morty on an adventure, but Rick actually tampers with the family structure almost never and aside from the negative comment here and there, actually leaves Jerry alone for the most part. Now, any person of normal or at least slightly lower normal intelligence and drive would attempt to connect with Rick and use his intellect to better his position in life. I mean, he could ask rick to help him get money, or improve his career in some way. But no, he sits around all day playing games on his apps and pestering his wife and kids instead of anything worthwhile. He only ever asks Rick for help with stupid shit, like the dog episode, his golf swing etc. He never really gave Rick a chance from the beginning, just "Get your father out of the house, put him in a home" its like Dan Harmon said, Jerry means well, but he thinks that meaning well in enough.

>>94332807
Very true, Jerry does great without beth, but beth sucks without Jerry

>>94331866
Morty is stupid, a failure, but still manages to stick up to Rick and somehow be successful in situations when the going gets tough.

Leading that primitive tribe in the micro-mini-teeni-verse for example.

This post smells of roast.

To be honest beth is a high strung bitch who no one could put up with. While jerry is pathetic and weird in his interests Beth is just boring. Past being a horse surgeon she isn't even really a person. She just pretends that she is because she used to be once. The whole thing about their relationship is that they were just as bad.
It's sad, I would have called you out saying Beth will improve and not Jerry. We have evidence is does/would and could. However, the show is pushing this plot where the literal universe is against him now. Nature itself wants him to be poor.
I don't like that. I think it's cheap and stupid.

Don't get me wrong, I laughed my ass off but if Jerry's getting fucked Beth better not get out of her Rick worship scott free

>>94331777
big thing that confuses me is doesn't Jerry own the house?

Why is he leaving and not Beth?

>>94333242
Why on earth do you think Jerry owns the house?

>>94333272
Because they kept saying it was his house

>>94333242

Because Beth is the one with the highly skilled and profitable career?

If he owned the fucking house do you think he would need to beg for money from his children? He could just take out a home equity loan.

>>94333242
It's america. Men are fucked in divorces

>>94333286
I mean, Jerry kept saying that, certainly.

>>94332468
Rick does more harm than good. Jerry is 100 about Rick and Beth is a fucking retard (like Summer right now).

The irony of Morty and Jerry is that they have trouble standing up for themselves. They can be impotent or frustrated while Summer and Beth for the most part pursue their goals smoothly but in actuality both Summer and Beth freely give up their autonomy to Rick.
They do what they want and what they want is to be told what to want. Hell telling her what to do is exactly what Beth asked the Meeseeks for. While she's successful, she lacks direction and her validation is paper thin.

Because he's the one who pushed the ultimatum. When you break up you move out (if you're being a bitch/fair about it or have a family) until things are settled.
Jerry should by all rights get the house in court but that would hurt the status quo so he'll get cucked as per usual.

C'mon this is Rick we're talking about here. Do you really think he would just stop at setting up Beth and Jerry's divorce? Of course his vengeance is going to be convoluted and go multiple layers deep until Jerry is a completely broken shell of a person.

>>94332468
He's an idiot that should've worked harder on finding a job and not ask his daughter for cash but the rest is either wrong or just false.

He was often realistically scared when aliens and other horror freakshows are involved but fought back multiple times, against queen alien Beth, mutated humans and wanted to shoot hostile robots with a party cannon he thought was a weapon. He stood up to Rick and gave his wife and ultimatum.

He had his bad moments with the kids when he asked Summer for money or ignored people at the table when he got really into that mobile games, but he tries to help them and give them advice on multiple occasions.

Most of the times when Rick saved his lives is where he put him at danger. Frankly, the times he fucked him over outnumber the times where he saved him.

In summation, he's a neurotic loser most people grow up to be with better and worse moments and your post is trash.

>>94333384
I think that would be a really shit joke. I find that reality itself has decided to shit on Jerry being far more amusing. It would also shit on all the
>>94333364
God isn't real posting by introducing a God character/stand in for comical purpose. They could demystify it but it would still be amusing.
As for all that other shit? Rick didn't have the time. If it were him, everything he's done up to this point would suggest he would to it personally letting Jerry know it was him fucking him over. Rick's very ego like that. Remember Something Ricked and the Devil?

You are overlooking the double standards for men and women in society. A woman doesn't even have to look decent for a man to "take her off her feet" and take care of her. Beth looks decent and has a high paying job, making her a "catch" for men. Jerry will obviously improve, I mean I would say it can't get much worse for him but it looks like it is (even though its his fault, sitting around collecting unemployment and waiting for a settlement from beth) See pic related

>>94333455

He's a fictional character, it doesn't matter how hard he works if the writers refuse to let him catch a break. We're caught in this loop where it's supposed to be funny to watch jerry suffer because he's a loser but he's a loser because they put him through so much.

>>94333725
Nah beth is a pain and her job is emasculating due to the high income. She could get roots easy but guys would want to settle with her at all

>>94333828
Plus you have the two teenage kids as baggage and Rick who's aiming to do what he wants, when he wants, with Morty and Summer depending on who he needs and when. It's gonna be hard to find a guy who's willing to do all that, let Rick have free-reign, and deal with Beth's daddy issues.

Jerry needs to find Rick from dimension J19ζ7 and have epic Rick and Jerry adventures. They are a good team and frankly Jerry is being held back by Beth and his family.

Rick J19ζ7 and Jerry could be the greatest heroes if the multiverse.

>>94333828
Beth is sick of being with Jerry, and her every character nuance screams of not being satisfied intellectually, financially, emotionally and in the bedroom. We haven't been able to see beths character develop (granted this is a different beth after cronenberg) because she is stuck providing for a family in a job she doesn't really like because she has no partner in life. She chose jerry cuz hes so pathetic he will never leave her (like her dad). And the only person who feels emasculated by a woman is a beta male (oh right I'm on /co/)

you have never been in a relationship of merit. Summer should be out of the house next year, and a new boyfriend wouldn't give a shit about Rick and Morty's relationship, it seems like Jerry's big problem with Rick is he is not in control of his son.

He is spineless, not retarded.

>>94334145
I think Beth was basically keeping Jerry as her pet man. Getting divorced is probably the best thing that could ever happen for Jerry. I predict she'll eventually come crawling back to him by the end of the season. If there is justice in the world, he'll be like "nah, I'm cool" and walk away.

>>94333993
>Beth is sick of being with Jerry, and her every character nuance screams of not being satisfied intellectually, financially, emotionally and in the bedroom

The reality is that Beth is intellectually, emotionally, financially, and sexually mediocre just like Jerry. Jerry recognizes his mediocrity and accepts it, while Beth tries to deny it and wishes she was special like Rick when in reality she's not.

She's never shown herself to be in anyway better than Jerry other than the fact that she's smug.

>>94334265
Don't look back. I'd be more than happy for them to both be better for splitting but it will sit poorly now that the Jerry is a loser joke is literally his entire character now.
Like he can't just get a shit job that he thinks is super cool and deck his house out in terrible merchandise and collectables or something which would still make him a loser. No, now he has to be in perpetual suffering.
There's a difference between pathetic and miserable and it's looking like the writers want miserable.

>>94331777
Does Jerry have a professional degree? Just go work at a supermarket or whatever. He tries to be something he's not and that's why people don't respect him. Of course his kids love him, but considerably less so if he keeps butting in their lives when he has nothing to offer. He can't expect to have the respect of others when he can't respect himself first, or something.

plus, we see Rick hanging out with Jerry, alone, it seems, in the trailer. So I'm curious to see how that happened.

>>94334477
He worked for an ad agency. Just to get in the door, he'd need a degree. Probably liberal arts degree or something like that.

Honestly? Kill Rick to protect my children from his madness.
Rick thinks so lowly of Jerry that he wouldn't forsee Jerry just walking in, drawing a fire arm, and filling him with lead.
Beth would hate him forever, but she's a lost cause anyway.
Summer would hate him too. But Morty would come around eventually.
Hell, Morty tried to kill Rick already. He had no idea that gun was fake when he shot Rick in the head.
Morty may even help you hide the body and use Rick's crazy gadgets to cover it all up. Morty in the very least knows how to work the portal gun at this point.
