He is? I don’t get it wasn’t that episode full of Charlie going on with how insecure he is lmao how everyone thinks of him as dumb and crazy?

@@byHexted Everyone else lives in a fantasy world. They may be objectively smarter (debatable) but Charlie is the only one who doesn't feel the need to impress anyone.

@@spicerc1244so we're just going to ignore all the years of him trying to impress the waitress?

⁠@@emanuelmartinez7267 that’s not what they mean, he’s trying to impress the waitress because he wants to date her. The rest try to impress others for egotistical reasons.

​@@byHexted I think charlie's life would scar anyone and he continues to seek a sense of fulfillment with reasonable expectations although he is a deeply flawed human ie the stalking lying about cancer but he generally wishes other people in and outside the gang welbeing

That's one of the things that really makes it so good. They're not JUST the writers doing all the "haha dum dum lol" jokes they can cram into the script; their different brand of stupidity is very character-specific and informs everything else that they do.

Charlie is dumb, Mac is stupid lol

Charlie as the the straight man is hilarious 😆 like he's the guideline of over the top. Let not forget he sniffs glue and drinks paint

@@bellzebub9863 Lol yea Charlie has the brain-damage from glue kind of stupid where as Mac has a lighter but more intractable type of stupid.

The difference is confidence

Dennis did graduate from a ivy so I don’t doubt he’s smart. He’s just so arrogant that even when he’s dead wrong he still thinks he’s correct

@@jonathanfox676 that and year of alcoholism etc. have probably screwed with his brain.

Dennis has basically average intelligence but by comparison he looks like a genius haha.

​@@jonathanfox676 Shit getting into an Ivy is the hard part, can't believe Dee flunked out lmao.

​@Jonathan Fox It's easy as shit to get into Ivy when your dad is a plutocrat.

at least he has SOME self-awareness?

@@dykesmcgee3136 "I don't know how to express myself unless through anger and personal attack" strikes again.

@@jimthompson8947 yeah omg wow… I ALSO noticed he is a little bit psychotic I think they have been “subtly” hinting at it 😂

The Dunning-Krueger effect. Dumb people often think they’re smart because they don’t realize the complexity of things. Smart people know they always have a lot to learn.

@@coleozaeta6344 one of the things I learned about myself early on is I don’t really know Jack shit compared to most people. Father never taught me a damn thing so I don’t really know the most basic stuff that most grown men do. So I’m just trying to teach myself

​@@Montanakid1988 That's the smartest thing anyone can do. It's maddening how many people insist that they're doing something "the right way" just because "that's how my dad always did it."

@@coleozaeta6344that’s definitely the way with a lot of “smart” people who sound like they’re sucking themself off with their google knowledge.

Just don't ground yourself and you'll be fiiiiiine.

my electrical professor back in college said this is 100% true. One of the reason birds are safe. But if you touch the other wire, while still hanging, that will electrocute you

Kurt Russell did it...

Nice

It's funny Charlie fucking hates Churches cause they're a scam made just to take old people's money. But in the Mother Mary Stain episode he dressed as a 'charismatic' preacher, impressed a bunch of old people by acting flamboyant and confident, and claimed he may or may not be Jesus Christ, the son of God. It's so ridiculous, but it's totally not contradictory if you think about it. Charlie hates the scam when his mother or him are being scammed, but he loves the scam when he's doing the scamming! And he likes the attention. And he pissed off Mac so much both times lmfao. That and he definitely fucking hates having to stand up and sit down over and over again for no reason.

Mac is a broken clock that can be right twice a day.

@@pysq8 well said lol

Evolution is bullshit

@@pysq8no way you just said evolution isn’t real 🤣🤣

Mac’s stupidity comes from believing what he sees in movies, his blind faith (regardless of how you feel on religion), and his obsession with himself. Charlie’s stupidity comes from substance abuse and just general lack of awareness/poor upbringing.

😂😂

First of all through God all things are possible.

⁠@lessthantom2 so go ahead and jot that down ^

I've always thought that Mac is naturally the dumbest member of The Gang, and that Charlie just huffed/sniffed/drank himself stupid (on top of having a learning disability).

and Dennis has one and one half of them

Frank doesn't always ground Charlie & Mac though; oftentimes he'll suspend his own maturity/intelligence just to screw around. funny how he's a successful businessman off some corrupt choices & companies, but he mainly chooses to live in squalor & only associates with the gang mostly by choice 😂😂😂 I still remember the episode from his point of view where he was only tangentially related to the gang's scheme but he still somehow saved the day & called Dee a bird 2x

@@droomzy dee's a bird

It's one of the best parts of the entire series. The scammer actor does such a great job

He's imagining the guy bent over a barrel

@@cohenparsons947 Yep! You got it!

Such great subtle comedy. It’s why the show is so rewatchable. Every time through you see someone doing something in the background you never noticed.

“Where do i jizz? No you don’t jizz!! Well dennis how can I orgasm if I dont jizz?”

The look Dennis gives is perfect, gets me every time

I wonder what would perfectly exhibit my brand of stupidity 🤔

Honestly the best part is I can't tell if he's joking

lmaooo thinking to himself "this feels wrong even for me"

She probably smoked while pregnant with him.

Charlie is surprisingly the smart one in that conversation. 😂😂😂

Mac is so emotionally immature he has to be physically "big" to fewl grown up It fits his character perfectly

​@@ernstthalmann4306Thank goodness for "size pills"

And they could realistically be afraid of apple seeds because they contain cyanide, which they know is poisonous. (Just really small amounts.. but that nuance can be forgotten). Frank even acknowledged it when he was told Dennis swallowed the seeds and was trying to throw up.

@@DemonicAdj also if you swallow seeds they pass through anyway, so you're 100% safe if you don't chew them

Charlie is seen reading in the first couple episodes, Homie just does so many Charlie chores at patty's that his brain is rot

​@@Th3Espr3ss0 i dont think so. The gang is always trying to prove something. Charlie is trying to prove he isnt stupid. "Flowers for charlie" is the main reason i think this, he pretends to read and understand stuff but he just never gets it

he can ALMOST read, he'll adapt

@@hexhollows he'll adapt to reading?

@@Th3Espr3ss0 My theory is that he used to read, but between all the physical trauma and inhalants, he's lost whatever focus he once had.

I still do love the times when Mac is the smart one and Charlie is stupid and Mac can’t believe how stupid Charlie is. It’s one of my favorite twists.

It's funny cuz Mac is basically the stupidest a person can be realistically, no drive to connect dots or find out the truth when he learns he's wrong. Charlie is pretty sharp intellectually; he will take his own assumptions or fiction as truth but has a solid (for him) internal logic that has never been corrected, bringing his stupidity to an almost sub-human level while having more "intelligent" reasoning than any of Mac's beliefs.

The best moments are the ones where Mac makes Charlie look like a well-adjusted and sane person

"Not that he's ever had one"

I have been in real life bars that came remarkably close, including one where the bartender promised he wouldn't replace my hot dog with his penis

It's rare that someone manages to outshine the gang, but Key was just too funny!

My favorite is in Mac Day near the bridge when you see Dennis progressively on the complete edge of blowing up, then finally screams into the pillow

Let your mom sleep bro

Depending on the scene lol

Ha, Dennis looks at the customer first to see their reaction and then steps in.

It’s like he’s so surprised Mac is so stupid that he had to laugh.

I agree but your comment made me realize his character has accomplished an ideal he'd set for himself in getting ripped and feels nothing for it sending him into a spiral. Maybe it's Mac's midlife crisis haha

I like pre ripped Mac just because he had more insecurities about himself where as ripped Mac is a bit more grounded.

@@bellzebub9863 On no planet is any version of Mac "more grounded."

Yeah current Mac’s over reliance on Dennis is kind of just annoying to me prefer max from earlier seasons

@@derekschmitt9994 that's actually a very interesting take, totally makes sense though.

Is there a purple?

@@JassZoigelthere is a town in Cuba called Primero de Enero, but it used to have the name Violeta, which is Spanish for violet, a common shade of purple tldr there was a purple but not anymore

But it's Amarillo. Not yellow.

@@DevilMan88 Spanish

@remy_james Yes. Amarillo is Spanish for yellow. Good job little champ. In this case it's a proper noun and doesn't translate. An English speaker wouldn't call it Yellow. They'd also call it Amarillo.
