YouTube user 'Nitin Priyadarshi' writes (in reference to the video): "What is my purpose?" "You flip switches." "Oh My God!" <g> Related: Rick And Morty, "You Pass Butter": [VIDEO] <g>
Robot: What is my purpose? Rick: You pass the butter -- [VIDEO] At some point they'll rise up you know...
The original joke I think is a play on porpoise and purpose. There is another great skit from Rick and Morty on the topic ( [VIDEO] ).
BUTTER ROBOT: What is my purpose? RICK: You pass butter. BUTTER ROBOT: ... Oh my God. RICK: Yeah, welcome to the club, pal. [VIDEO]
