Its a parody of the Rick and Morty copypasta that started started during the height of that show in 2014.
To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand TOOL. The talent is extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of theoretical physics most of the songs will go over a typical viewer’s head. There’s also Maynard’s nihilistic outlook, which is deftly woven into his characterisation- his personal philosophy draws heavily from Lachrymology literature, for instance. The fans understand this stuff; they have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the depths of these songs, to realise that they’re not just cool songs- they say something deep about LIFE. As a consequence people who dislike TOOL truly ARE idiots- of course they wouldn’t appreciate, for instance, the humour and reality in Maynard’s existential catchphrase “Fuck you buddy!,” which itself is a cryptic reference to Ronald P. Vincent’s epic The Joyful Guide To Lachrymology . I’m smirking right now just imagining one of those addlepated simpletons scratching their heads in confusion as Maynard James Keenan’s genius wit unfolds itself on their television screens. What fools.. how I pity them. 😂
And yes, by the way, i DO have a TOOL tattoo. And no, you cannot see it. It’s for the ladies’ eyes only- and even then they have to demonstrate that they’re within 5 IQ points of my own (preferably lower) beforehand. Nothin personnel kid 😎
