Who is the better one of her two dads?

Me. I'm the best dad for Marceline. Back off daughterstealers.

Can someone explain the fry thing to me?
Her dad ate some fries. That's it. Big whoop. Why the fuck is she so bent out of shape over something that petty / harmless?
>>
>>153628622
The original full version of the song was about her dad abandoning her, but they changed the lyrics to be about fries because they thought it'd be too depressing. This was still early Adventure Time before the show became 100% melodramatic.
>>
>>153628622
Well, you see, Adventure Time was (initially) a comedy. It was a joke, the fact that it's absurd was supposed to be amusing.

Because that was the only food in that shithole world

>but they changed the lyrics to be about fries because they thought it'd be too depressing
So they botched the song for a stupid joke?
That's unfortunate. It could've been a really nice song otherwise.
>>153628641
They didn't really frame it like it was a joke, that's why it's so confusing.
>>
>>
>>153628669
Pretty much, you can listen to the mostly-intact original version here that transitions into the fries version towards the end;

Simon... obviously. Hudson keeps trying to brainwash her and make her evil.

>>153628622
Imagine your dad never visited or cared about you, and one day you find him in your home eating take out you bought while you went out to get a quick drink or condiments.
>>
>>153629071
If he didn't visit then why would he be around my house eating my food to begin with?
I don't even think that's what happens in the show, is it? What was so important about these fries that her dad eating them permanently damaged their relationship?
I know I sound like one of those cringy YouTube critics but I still never got why they revolved what would've been an emotional song around fucking french fries.

Does anyone remember this old ass single-page but multi-panel comic of Marceline bragging to PB about how hardcore and badass she is, with each next panel being a scene from the show where she's being a huge mopey faggot and or crying? I'm talking like 2012-13 era, and I believe the artist may have been the same one who drew this, but if so, it's not on their DA account.

I haven't watched AT in a while, did they make marcy trans? I knew they made here a dyke, but i didn't think she'd go the way of huntress.
>>
>>153631633
Checked
>>153631933
Checked, and marcy was always trans. "Taking her fries" is a metaphor for his father molesting him and taking his virginity, which traumatized him so much he trooned out.
>>
>>153628622
My father referred to it as the "Dad Tax."

I wish it remained a light-hearted adventure instead of trying to be indulge in muh feelings so much.
Aren't the most memorable parts of the show the comedy and aventure bits? Like the silly songs and the adventure Finn and jake went, the initial conflict with the Lich and all... why add some pointless drama to it? It's like people can't help themselves.
>>
>>153628587
For my personal entertainment? Hunson.

Non-Ice King Ice King was just boring and weak. Like when the addict friend goes sober. The devil guy was fun and charming

Why is she black?

>What was so important about these fries that her dad eating them permanently damaged their relationship?
Why would you think the fries hold that importance just because the lyrics are about them? The song is about her feelings and relationship with him, the fries are one image to talk about it.
>>
Autists itt don't understand that strong emotions can often form over insignificant things. By eating her fries, Marceline's father showed he didn't respect her and cared only about his base appetites. She wanted someone who wouldn't eat her fries even if they were hungry enough to do so. That's it.
>>
>>153633278
Marceline was revealed to be black originally in the show. She became pale when she became a vampire. But to be honest, I feel like they probably made this decision later on. I doubt this was the original intend with the character.

Not that it makes much difference anyway
>>
>>153633590
I don't think any sane person would cry over something as silly as eating fries, man. Most likely explanation was that it was supposed to be a silly song, but they decided to lean on the drama later on to please the audience who cared about that sort of stuff.
>>

No, she’s pale because of her demon genes

That's the central opening lyric to the song.
If it were buried deeper into the song or a side lyric you could shrug it off as just a tidbit. But she STARTS the song with that, so clearly it's an important element to her and she wanted people to focus on it.
And if it weren't important at all, why include it? It's fucking fries. Get over it.
Again: I know I sound like an insufferable Mr. Enter type so I apologize for that but I just HATE that lyric so much. Even when I was a tween and the episode came out I thought it was dumb.
>>
>>153633716
It’s important to the SONG, doofus. It carries the feeling + relationship combo. It doesn’t mean it happening in real life is the reason their relationship fell apart, or even that it was the last straw. It’s just a down to earth specific thing to point to that shows he didn’t care and didn’t respect her. You’re letting your irritation at the lyric generate assumptions about the intention that aren’t necessary to hold onto.

Curing Ice King's dementia was a terrible writing decision. I don't know how much Hunson we could take, though, he was pretty one-note. Fun and charming, yes, but he appeared in what, three episodes? He'd wear out his welcome fast.
>>
>>153633716
It's supposed to be dumb. It's a dumb way of paraphrasing her feelings. This was back in season two when Adventure Time still had a clue.
>>
>>153635120
Him being a re-occuring villain would have been funny. The did it with ttgo.

But drama and allusions to marcy being fucked up from getting plowed by her dad is too enticing for the foid controlled AT team.
I mean...look at him.

Sooooo they'll announce Fionna & Cake Season 3 greenlight anytime soon now, right? :D

>No I'm going to get those shitty fucking fries that don't even stay crisp!
If your getting restaurant take out and they offer chips there is no fucking reason to get some shitty fries you won't even enjoy. Doubly so if you are expecting leftovers.
>>
>>153635414
I'm not saying you should get fries that don't stay crisp. I'm saying you must live in some shithole because you can't get crisp fries. They should be ice cold long before they're soggy.
