I love how mordecai is like the only one able to keep up with Rocky's insane ramblings and even add to the conversation
I feel like it's cause Mordecai just kinda takes it at face value and responds accordingly.
@@ShadowyKatz that and I also don't think good ol mordecai is as mentally stable as he pretends to be.
@@speedsketch4414 He has his own bouquet of issues, definitely.
Or maybe he's still coming down from the effects of the space coffee.
@@PIB2000 that is also very likely
Rocky: talks with food in his mouth
Mordecai: 𝙎𝙤 𝙮𝙤𝙪’𝙫𝙚 𝙘𝙝𝙤𝙨𝙚𝙣 𝙙𝙚𝙖𝙩𝙝
LMAO LOL😂😂😂😂😂
Tbh, I’m the same way. :p
i can definitely relate to Mordecai lmao
Mordica:is basically me when someone chew food and talk to me
Seems like somewhere, there is a cat that hisses and thinks that Mordecai thought when you talk to them with food in your mouth. /sagenod
Mordecai's worst enemy: Loud chewers.
I thought it was asymmetry?
But yes, that too
Granted I would also pull a gun on a loud chewer
No, its mayonnaise
Relatable
Lamo lol
Y'know, the quicker argument to get Rocky to eat waffles would've been: "See these little pockets in the grid? They hold more syrup."
But it's MORDECAI.
Mordecai did mention this
@@PapaGermaine90 he mentioned organizing the syrup, not having more
EXACTLY- I was aboutta comment this lmao 😂
@@themustardman219exactly.
Mordecai would never eat waffles. He making this all up on the spot to play Devils advocate to get some intelligent conversation
I like how Mordecai is a cold blooded killer when he works but when he just sits down and hangs out he's oddly charming. In his own way at least. Also I like the idea that rocky is the only other person he hangs out with other than Viktor despite being polar opposites.
Opposites attract, remember?
@@SimplyDuker it’s more common than most people realise
In personality anyways, art and logic are connected in philosophy.
When you only know 30% of the words some guy is saying....
If you're cold blooded all of the time and never decompress from it, you'll go crazy and off yourself.
"I HAVE TO DIG!" Micheal did a fantastic job with that line delivery!
And also a mood, by the way.
I love how he said , "But where's pancakes!" He really tapped into the character's love for pancakes.
@Blunderman-rl1hc Exactly! It was adorable! Are we sure he's an adult in the second comic, or did the syrup overdose give him a permanent childlike mentality?
"I HAVE COOK!"*
Micheal is a top-tier voice actor
Seeing Rocky and Mordecai interact feels like watching the right and the left side of the brain collide with each other
Edit: Holy crap, this is possibly my most liked comment i ever had! So thank you everyone!
WHY IS THAT SO ACCURATE OML😆😆
YES
"Don't be too alarmed about this, but you may have a very minor case of, *serious brain damage."*
Indeed accurate
@@sumrando9203 Although if you do feel alarmed, try to hold onto that feeling. That's probably your brain's natural reaction to being told you have serious brain damage.
What I've gathered:
Pancakes make Rocky insane - because they are "dadaisms": no structural integrity, purely asymmetrical and a mess
Waffles make Rocky enlightened - they are prestine, symmetrical and a fine piece of art within breakfast consumption
...or it might depend on the amount of syrup
Or like a lot of things made around the 1940s...it has cocaine in it
it's at 69 likes, do i break it-?
anyway. yes. although rocky is a little insane anyway, no?
@@belfry.bats.xx. nice
Now I wonder about french toast...
What do you think the powdered sugar is
I like how both mordecai and rocky are on the spectrum just on completely different ends
Is that cannon?
@@PaulPrisbreyNo, mostly because neither diagnosis really existed yet. The oldest official description of Autism was a single doctor in the USSR writing a paper on “Autistic sociopathy” in 1928, but very few people would have had access to that information.
Though Rocky definitely leans more towards ADHD than Autism.
just because the _Diagnosis_ didn't exist at the time period this takes place in, doesn't mean they can't be Neurodivergent
@@galaxychill9578 Oh, absolutely! Rocky 100% has the hyperactive-impulsive type of ADHD, he shows every possible symptom of it (and all of the associated trauma, too). Not having access to a proper diagnosis definitely caused him so much extra trouble, with a lifetime of not understanding why he couldn’t be what everyone else said he was “supposed to be” and all that.
@@rekkariley652People have that problem today even with the info available!
...don't ask me how I know...
Mordecai and Rocky would be pretty good friends, I think. They're both insane enough for their bullshit to make some sort of sense to each other, none of the other characters are really able to hold a full conversation with Rocky except him. It's actually kinda charming how they interact. I hope we'll see more of them together later in the story, if not just in more of these side comics.
They are not insane, they are really smart with no social skills so only people like em can understand what they say
@@HellishSpoon Insanity can often come with intelligence, so OP is not that far off.
Rocky is, ironically, the only person who Mordecai can have an intelligent conversation eith
@Düker Azhara "I can't tell if this is brilliant or madness."
"It's remarkable how those 2 traits are coincided."
Honestly, neurodivergent babies. Not sure if Mordecai even enjoys Rocky's company though. Nor vice versa!
Gotta love how Mordecai can deal with absolutely everything Rocky does when he rambles and gets a sugar high from all the syrup, because in essence it gives Mordecai someone to Verbally Joust with. But the moment it comes to dealing with Rocky eating with his mouth open and also blabbering creating a mess whichever way he's facing (towards Mordecai in this case) that's Mordecai's breaking point. Flawless.
This makes me wonder even more how Rocky is still alive.
too much energy to die
fun fact: rocky's inspiration came from tracy butler's (creator of lackadaisy) old cat who's also named as Rocky. Unfortunately, the cat has already been dead for a few years now.
Wafflism. Praise be to waffles.
Luck of the Irish I guess.
Rocky has unbelievably stupid luck I guess
How has Mordecai not shot Rocky several...thousand times by now? Or does he and Rocky just refuses to die, absorbing syrup out of every tree he's buried near to regenerate like some sort of maple vampire?
Considering that blow to the brain Rocky once took, I believe your Maple Vampire theory. XD
Mordecai is not willing to subject his bullets to Rocky’s face. After loosing his iron he realized he needed to manage his temper to protect his possessions.
@@danapowers-green3172 it was a new iron too... One of the electric ones...
@@Jam._. Very modern.
I don’t think these little side comics will ever get old.
waaaait... i know you
@@iaminhere6022 These are not the droids you are looking for.
@@locomotivefaox shut up man. i havnt seen you in ages qwq
@@iaminhere6022 I would say the same but I suppose that'd be obvious
@@locomotivefaox what i never got around in foofis streams is to ask you if you have discord
The dichotomy between these two well-spoken gentlemen is so interesting to watch.
The what?
I live for Mordecai's horrified expressions
Same lol😂😂😂
Haha same 😂
It's even funnier when you consider what he does for a living.
*Gives Rocky a whole bottle of syrup*
*Rocky's eyes go wide and starts vibrating*
*Jumps through the ceiling*
Rocky as hes shooting up into the air: "I M G O I N G T O F I G H T T H E M O O N !"
That sounds familiar..
@@twist_ending7545yesssssss
Okay I’ve heard that before, where is that from?!
@@EchoStarcast Chikn nuggit, the line is said by Sody pop
Chikn Nuggit!
The Sophistry part is brilliantly laid out in dialogue. It is both absurd, entertaining and clever in its narration. Always enjoyed that one.
The line *"I CAN SEE ETERNITY"* is playing non-stop in my head! *H E L P !*
It’s now in my head rent free too 😂
Uh, get high on syrup
I advice heavy amounts of water to drain that syrup
@@mubassirzaman7202 That's what caused the problem.
0:43
I love the interactions between rocky and Mordecai
Mordecai doesn't.
"There us no answer, only absurdity. And French Toast."
I love them together!
Mordecai pulling a gun on Rocky because he was offering food with a bite taken out and talking with his mouth full is honestly a mood
What exactly does being a mood mean?
@@theguybehindyou4762 I don't think I'm totally qualified to answer this, but how I use it, it sort of means relatable. Relatable, however, in a way where I'd never do what I'd stated, but I'd want to. You know?
@@theguybehindyou4762It's basically seeing yourself in a character
Getting ProZD as Mordecai is absolutely amazing, he captures Mordecai's classy yet mildly nefarious character so well.
You think "My Dinner with Andre" was an intellectual feast?
I give you "Breakfast with Mordecai"
"I HAVE TO DIG!" That line kills me every time. And please, let's not kid ourselves, we all want to see Mordecai as a kid
Fun Fact: Prozd already did a dub of the waffle comic 7 years ago.
Great stuff
Nice to see his Mordecai voice hasn’t changed all that much since then.
That's actually how I discovered him. He was always the Mordecai guy to me
Navy Blue Vixen Either that or “Ah, fun times, fun times...”
And here it is! ua-cam.com/video/JPDJqyUpjCg/v-deo.html
Mordecai literally tried to make rocky breakfast more cultural but he regrets it immadietly
I love how Mordecai and Rocky have such a complex vocabulary that they could each have casual conversations on nonsense
4:05 Mordecai just pulling out the gun like that killed me 🤣
That’s odd; he appeared to be aiming it at Rocky.☺️
mordecai go squosh
I am still WHEEZING
R.I.P Rocky Died From Gunshot Because He Was Violating Mordecai Ears 😂😱😭
That escalated quickly!
"you were on the floor" God, the deadpan delivery. Loved it!
LMFAO! 😂🤣
I never thought I’d hear Michael Kovach say “Waffles are LIES”
NEITHER DID I AND I LOVE IT😂
the waffle theorists later recruited rocky to their cult.
Wukong pfp
Hello fellow monkie kid fan
This will always be my favourite of the shorts. It just encapsulates Rocky and Mordecai's personalities so very PERFECTLY
As a die-hard waffles fan (no wafflin' on that), Sophistry is by far my favorite comic ever - and seeing it animated & voiced is a treat. Thank you so much for this!
I'm completely with Rocky's dadaistic approach to breakfast on this one. A meal cannot be a rationalized process. It is emotionally loaded, whether that means putting the pancakes on your face as a mask or having the joy of seeing the syrup fall at their center and flow off of the perimeter.
Having watched those old SungWon dubs, this is so awesome to see, they've all gotten very far
I know nothing of this series, I stumbled across this and was absorbing every bit of that highly intelligent conversation the same way pancakes and waffles do to syrup with enough time.
Then the ending was so hilarious it caught me off guard laughing...
Listening to Mordecai recite paradoxes while high was a bad idea
I think I'm joining rocky in the infinite expanse
High on what?
@@Cacowninja syrup
I love Rocky, he is my number one favourite cat, but I have to say that Mordecai is right, waffles (and french toast) are indeed the superior breakfasts. also XD Waffle's advocate, Rocky and Mordecai are fun to watch together XD
Ok i really like mordecai's voice. Suits him so well.
2:49
Mordecai : "You have me dead to rights. What you say is true. And if that is true, then it's false. I'm lying."
_I feel like Rocky's panel perfectly describes how my brain feels trying to comprehend that statement for longer than 2 secs..._
Edit : Nevermind, I didn't listen to the entire speech bubble. If you don't mind. I'll just do a Rocky and zone out from the diabetes whilst Mordecai does his thing.
Can’t get over how manic and adorable Kid Rocky is
Rocky is chaotic smart
Mordi is egotistically smart
A great combo for them
Rocky also drank like 5 cups of coffee before the waffle bit, if you pay attention to his side of the table.
"...legitimate, like *cubism."*
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
The reference to linear algebra was good too, but the first thing cracked me up.
Bro the way Mordecai just replies to Rocky,like he doesn't have anything else to do 😂
breakfast paradox is the best thing i’ve ever heard
I'll be honest, from the way Mordecai talks to Rocky about waffles...
... I might be jealous of his intellectuality.
God, Rocky had so much pancakes that he got syrup onto the credits!
It feels like I can smell the sugary stench just by looking at it.
This ProZD and Michael Kovach dynamic is the impromptu duo I never knew I needed.
I swear rocky puts crack in his “space coffee” no wonder he’s crazy
Also I just love him so much 😀
Sorry wrong video
Thank God, Rocky has never tried Espresso and I'm beginning to see why Mordecai left Lackadaisy.
Sophistry is like an adult explaining the breakfast 🥞 paradox to a 5-year-old that knows big words. 😂
I know it's been 3 years, but one thing that makes their dynamic work is that Mordecai takes EVERYTHING at face value. People don't tend to take Rocky's shit seriously because he *sounds* like he's just bullshiting, but he's not, and Mordecai couldn't identify a joke to save his life, so he really does try and understand Rocky's view the way he means it (which is still nonsense), and that's adorable
I've only known Rocky for a few minutes now but I think I'm in love with him
Every time I watch a Lackadaisy video I am once again amazed by how much effort and love goes into every single one. Wishing the Lackadaisy team lots of funding and luck for season one!
I love Mordecai, i think he's the only character who can converse with Rocky and send him into a stupor.
Mordecai and Rocky could easily fit in any of Lewis Carroll's Alice books.
Well he's already got the Cheshire Cat grin.
Now this has caught my attention. I will now wait. Maybe make some pancakes just to get to the right mood.
Gosh, this is so smartly written! Also, I fully believe that if cats could brandish a gun whenever they feel threatened or inconvenienced, they would. 😂
I love that in response to a waffle he pulled a gun.
Haven’t you heard? Waffles are dangerous weapons 😂
I like at the end how Mordecai just pulls out a gun at the end
Don't want to eat lead lead with your waffles Rocky!
"Where are your clothes??"
"I HAVE TO DIG!"
Michael absolutely the PERFECT voice for rocky, this is so fuckin cool
This made me laugh so much, Rocky is so goddamn adorable, and I love serious, sciency characters XD
Best birthday present
Happy birthday!
Happy Birthday 🎂🎈🎉🎊🎁
happy belated birthday
Rocky: *eats with food in his mouth*
Mordecai: And so I took that personally
Rocky has the zoomies and I love him
Rocky and Mordecai interacting is like adhd and autism having a conversation with each other
True, but I think Rocky has both Autism and ADHD!
@@minahilbaig1822 OMG EVEN BETTER YIPPEE
@@lmaojustchangedmyname4565 yeah!
Omg I now need to read Lackadaisy
I have never heard of a complex way of having a conversation about waffles and pancakes
Rocky is like me as a kid. Randomly trying to dig to the earths core.
Same.
"I HAVE TO DIG!" was a mood for like 5 years
@@jordanhicks5131 👍
"Sigh" good times.
We’ve all been there
I love the banter between the two.
2:18
His face is a smug as my friends when I cant come up with an good enough insult in 20 seconds
re-commenting on this years later on a different account
THEIR DYNAMIC AND INTERACTIONS ALTOGETHER MAKE MY DAY
Ok I enjoy hearing this with more people , but Im super glad ProZD is Mordecai
0:15 Bro really said "Nomf OMP SHMORF SMARF om num OMm SLARP Omon Shlom OMF"
Kid Rocky is the pinnacle of cuteness.
3:18 what cool reference to 20s with that moon
It’s a nice reference to George millees I may have mispronounced or misspelled his last name, but I know that’s a reference to a trip to the moon which has one of the most famous images associated with his movies. It’s kind of sad that most of them are lost nowadays, but a lot have been found, thankfully.
Amazing video as always! These dubs just shine so much with the talent you all have!
I’m especially happy for Realizer, he edited a couple of my videos back when I was starting out on UA-cam, and I’m so happy to see he’s come this far! I’m very excited to see any and all content for this channel in the future. Keep up the great work, all of you!
Seinfeldian conversations and maple syrup trips aside, sure is nice seeing Rocky and Mordecai back when they were primary allies, before the dark times that is.
So.. Rocky is a chaotic gremlin who likes explosives and pancakes..
Relatable
4:02 YOU BROKE A SYMMETRY!!!
Rocky is criminals insane and I live him for that 😂
He's also a literal criminal with the booze running and all. :)
So Mordecai’s answer is French Toast is the best breakfast item. I am Mordecai.
I stumbled upon this while actually eating waffles...
..now I'm found questioning my life--
Just insert Rocky's letters home and make everything sad forever.
2:58 ROCKY'S FACEEEEEEEEEEEE lmaoooo
Bro dipped into another universe ✨️ 🤣
My favourite 👍✨
"I HAVE TO DIG"
I love how Mordecai pulled a gun on Rocky when he offered some half-eaten waffles.
These Two fit so well together! Also what the hell is in those Waffels that make them so crunchy?
Probably made by someone that knows their way around a waffle iron.
@@dunes8817 I was gonna say, anyone who knows how to make wafflers properly makes them crispy/crunchy.
The absurdity that is Rocky is a blessing us mortals never deserved but got. And may he forever be crowned the king of..... breakfast?
Take the more organized shape of waffles and still the mild chaos of uneven syrup distribution and you get French toast.
I agree with Mordecai here.
Honestly, I think Mordecai is my favorite character.
You know... I get the impression Mordecai is a wee bit... square.
Does the syrup make him high or something?
I mean imagine taking a bottle of Aunt Jemima's (plain or with pancakes) and tripping balls.
I love how lackadaisy is coming back:)
Mordecai: ... there is no answer, only absurdity
...
Mordecai: and French toast
Me: how do you know there's French toast? Unless you've been there?
Mordecai: ... *sits up and leaves*
After a long night of gang fights, two enemies discuss waffles in a diner together before returning to their respectful gangs that night.
"Where are you're clothes??"
*"I HAVE TO DIG!*
amazing line no notes
We all know Micheal had a Hilarious time with the first comic. Especially the end. Love your work and hope to see more!
