Rick had a great sense of humor with a joke always being on the tip of his tongue.
He also had a love for ice cream particularly milkshakes and banana splits. Rick was known for his shortcuts that were never actually short.
He always had his hat, sunglasses, and watch within reach.
He also never went anywhere without his comb despite his limited amount of luscious locks.
Rick loved to laugh whether it was at a Facebook video that he played at max volume or with his family when he would pop out from around the corner for a well timed jump scare.
