@@cristianestrada708Ironically over here, he’s as emotionally intelligent as Jimmy himself for breaking Jimmy’s character flaws down almost instantly at the mere mention of him pulling his smart-ass shtick again. Or it’s been boiling over for a while in his head and it just came out here.
@@bevvvy1374 what I mean is that retroville is a themed town, everything about it is from the 50s, the adults behave like they are in the 50s but the kids don't play along
In addition, this video makes me want to call up my dad and asking him about his day. I mean I definitely treat him better than Jimmy, but this unironically made me want to talk to my old man more.
@@crimsonazuredragongodking6623 yeah, you can still ask him about his day, even if he has nothing to tell, he'd be happy to know you care enough to ask.
@@Silver_Sonic_23 That shows that Skeeter is just wearing a mask, but for the first time, he took it off to show to Jimmy what the real world is. He made Jimmy look at someone, *something* real for once, and he tried to make him face reality. Let's see if James Isaac Neutron is able to, for once, admit he's wrong and hopefully, finally admit that he learned something new.
He sounds exactly the same. Sure, he may be trying to do a voice, but he sounds exactly like he always does, albeit he speaks more slowly, and a tad more lowly, than he did in the beginning.
The persona Skeeter puts on at work is all just one massive customer service smile. Skeeter acts like a silly dude around customers and his employees because it's the easiest way to relate to them. If your boss is just a chill dude who always praises a job well done, you're gonna be more motivated to work better. I really want to hear Rob Paulsen read this post in his Skeeter voice, it would be amazing. (Even if he doesn't sound exactly the same anymore)
I don't know how the internet got around to using a minor fast-food employee from an old Nickelodeon show as a mouthpiece for cold-hard rationality but I respect it.
i think its a combination of Skeet having a pretty memorable way of talking, and also Jimmy just being so annoying that someone had to fill that role. Also having worked in the service industry Jimmy not using the POS system makes my eye twitch
@@iwannaseehowlongyoucanmakethis It’s an extreme reliance on his form of rationality before humanity. To Jimmy the world is made of chemicals, numbers and principles. He calls it sodium chloride because that’s all it is to him. Not a seasoning, not something that makes food more enjoyable, just a chemical that everyone else uses a simplistic word for.
He said it to Piers Morgan after being asked. "People call you the smartest man alive, who else do you think is worthy of that title, myself excluded."
dont forget about how he did the maths in his head which is really dangerous cause the register needs to know what is being taken in and out of it and taxes
Yep, unless he knows how taxes work(he likely doesn't care about money any more than a way to acquire resources), and has never made a mathematic error (hes made many, resulting in some of the terrible events), then he shouldnt have done that.
That's really the worst thing, the system has no way of knowing if the inventory was sold or not, there's missing data that relys only on "trust me dude" Granted, Jimmy was right, but he should've gotten fired
Idk what’s funnier: the fact that this man actually referenced several pieces of Jimmy Neutron lore or the fact that he’s presumably giving this speech to a child.
@@benlubbers4943He’s still a child though. Hey immature he’ll grow out of it normally. All he needed to say was “everyone knows what sodium chloride is”, laughed, and moved on. Imagine someone you barely know just started bombarding you with all the reasons your a bad person, instead of, I don’t know, just doing his job.
@@Ismatic1906 I mean... Look at people like the Paul brothers! Some people do need a wake-up call, perferablely before they bury themselves in their own hype, or ego, or other bull.
For once, the boy genius isn’t intelligent enough to respond. The lexicon is unable to find the words. And in this moment, Jimmy is just as intelligent as the rest of us, forced to face the humanity he chose his ego over.
Yes he can! He can invent a better him! He can change his life and spend time with his pop and ma! He can change his world view and recover by taking the criticism to heart!
@@cameoshadowness7757 Perhaps he could. Or, more likely, he'd dismiss everything Skeeter said as nothing more than the words of a simpleton who doesn't know, doesn't understand what he's talking about. Jimmy very well could end up leaving this conversation behind him still thinking of himself as being in the right, and not change a thing about how he views the world and the people around him. He might very well change, yes, but he also might not, and doom himself to the fate he was warned of. Any many can change and become a better person. Not every man will.
Jimmy opened the door to his parent's house and stepped inside. He just stood there, at the landing, for a moment. From the kitchen, a shuffling was heard, and Jimmy's mother came into the living room. "Oh Jimmy, you're home early. I'm making something special for dinner tonight. How was your day?" Jimmy looked up and smiled softly. There was so much he wanted to say. All those years that he treated his mother like... like she wasn't his mother. Like she was a servant. All those things Skeeter said... "It was good, mother. How... how was your day?" Her eyes shone with some emotion he couldn't place. "My day? Well, I... I must admit I was a little lonely. I miss having you and your father around. That's awfully kind of you, to ask about my day. Actually, I started a sewing project today..." She went on about the pattern she found and what fabric she chose to sew it with, the thread she tried first, and how it turned out far too weak to handle the weight of the fabric so she had to start over. Jimmy came into the kitchen and sat down, listening with rapt attention. He never knew she was so skilled. They spoke like that for a while, Jimmy asking questions about her methods and her preferences in thread count, as she worked on dinner. Just as she finished, his father arrived from work. His father, who worked so hard to earn his family a living. His father tried to be smart like his son and fit in with Jimmy's peers. He wanted so badly to show his son how much he loved him. Really, what more could Jimmy ask for? How had he taken all of this for granted? Shouldn't he of all people his age know better? "Jimmy! My smart boy. How was your day at work?" Jimmy felt a pang in his chest and he didn't understand why. "I had an enlight--" he paused. His dad might not know what that word meant. "Er, I had an eye-opening day at work today. I learned some new things that I'm sure will help me live my life better." His father grinned, looking almost baffled. "Wow, that's... fantastic, son! Tell us, what did you learn?" He looked down at his hands. He had used them to build many, many things and to learn a great deal. Yet, today, he learned more than he had in all his years of scientific endeavor. He vowed to himself, then, to use his hands for better purposes. He didn't know what yet, but he would learn. "I learned that there's more to life than science and knowledge. I learned that sometimes it's better to share time with your family than build a super-computing medical robot." He sighed. "I learned that... my friends need me for more than my inventions." He looked up, to both of them. "Father, Mother, thank you. For feeding me, and caring for me, and working so hard. I thought I was being helpful, building all those things, but really I was being selfish. So... let me know if you need someone to wash the car, or take out the garbage. I want to help. It's the least I can do." His father's lip was quivering, and tears threatened to fall from his eyes. "Oh son," he said, and the tears fell, and Jimmy found himself wrapped in a warm hug. His mother burst into tears and wrapped her arms around both of them. Jimmy wondered how he'd lived without this. "I'm sorry. I'll be a better son, I promise," and he wondered why his voice shook as he spoke. "I love you, mom and dad."
....this...this hit me. This drives me to make 20k accounts to give you less than a fraction of likes id like to give you. Likes that you deserve. Underrated
they really gave him some praise at the start with saying "youll probably benefit the world more than damage it" and "my children's children will probably live in a world without war and disease and ill have to thank you for that" just to blindside him with the reality check
It's not really a reality check. He's basically saying "you're going to do great things for the world but you're cringe and I just don't like you and you're a seething incel" which isn't really an own
@connortg5 That makes zero sense. If he's doing great things for the world, then by definition he's bringing happiness to everyone. Curing cancer is going to bring happiness to anyone who has cancer or has a loved one with cancer. You essentially proved my point. Skeet's whole argument is "W-Well you might bring about an era of global prosperity with your genius, but you're cringy and arrogant!" as if that isn't normal for a kid Jimmy's age. Imagine having beef with a literal middle schooler, while also probably violating child labor laws.
@@dumbautisticmutt yeah it will help a lot of people globally, maybe even the people around him will be saved by his inventions, but him and family and friends will almost certainly not be brought the same happiness from his inventions that they get from other humans, which as cheesy as it sounds to say "true happiness comes from love or whatever" is kind of proven, we are just generally made more happy by people than objects. Jimmy especially will be left unfulfilled, since he is relying solely on people praising him for his inventions rather than people actually liking him for him, as said in the video, he might get a pity fuck after giving some girl a jetpack ride in college, but he'll be left seething on the inside seeing everyone else being happy with people they genuinely love while he can't form an attachment deeper than "praise me for being smarter than you"
I imagine this is what turns jimmy neutron into the Joker. A nihilistic sadistic psychopath who engineers weapons of mass destruction to wipe out humanity and create an army of clones.
Head canon: Skeeter was actually like this at some point, possibly in psychology (which is how he could analyze the behaviors of those mentioned). His dad left when he was around 12 because of his behavior and it was the wake up call he needed to turn his life around. He doesn’t want jimmy to go through that, especially not at his age.
Whenever I see long rants like this, I get a bad feeling in the back of my throat or in my chest or something thats like "Dude, I would ABSOLUTELY listen to every word of this...but are THEY gonna listen? Are they even gonna care or read it? They might just instantly mock you and learn nothing, all that effort down the drain..." I get a sense of dread for the poor soul trying to talk to people. However, I do think that Jimmy is, ironically, one of the only people who WOULD listen, since despite his ego, he seems like the kind of kid who, deep down, is still going to use his brain and listen, I feel like he is the kind of guy who cares about the lecture if you will. He's studious and smart as is, right? Why wouldn't he be likely to listen?
I haven't watched Jimmy Neutron for years, so--Anyway, qualifying statements aside (basically summing up to "but idk"), it does seem likely enough he might try to take some of this to heart. I like this comment.
I've always believed that, even if it's unlikely that it'll work, it's worth trying to help someone. Maybe I'm unique in this view, but I'd rather help ten people who didn't need it than not help one person who did. So even if Jimmy doesn't listen, Skeet tried. Let that be enough.
Probably be like holy shit he is just a child but well this comment section show me don't be a ass hole and also is funny and interestig i been watching coments 1:30 to 2:31 at the moment and tomorrow i have school but this is more important
"Quite the contrary, Skeet. You talk down to me like I’m some sociopathic monster for the way I act, but you haven’t lived even one minute in my shoes. I’m smart enough to invent robots out of toasters and even a rocket ship out of an amusement park ride, sure, but I’m also still 11 years old. Any 11 year old... no, any person would want to feel like something they feel confident in is worthy of praise and admiration to even the smallest degree. When you were my age, did you not talk for long periods about even the smallest of accomplishments, just hoping for someone to say so much as a ‘good job’ for it? Every time I invent something, I do it because it’s what makes me happy, and I want to feel like the people around me might appreciate it too, and just reward me with a simple acknowledgement that I can be special, that I don’t have to limit myself or my ambitions just to be appreciated, that I can earn them by doing the thing I feel best suits me. Yet, I still have to go to the same school as everyone else my age, even if what I learn there doesn’t stimulate my mind. Everyone moans and groans when I show them something that I dedicated my time to, yet I have to pretend it doesn’t get to me when they just as easily cheer for something as simple as Nick telling a ghost story in class or Cindy pulling a childish prank on me. Of course I understand that what interests me is not the same as what interests them, but I don’t want to feel like an alien in my own town, never understood by even my own parents. I’ve tried to invent things for them, like orange juice squeezers or window washers, but they just awkwardly smile and lament the fact that now they have to get a new toaster instead. Maybe it’s selfish to want people to treat me like my gifts means even the slightest bit of anything to them, but, again, let me inquire just what 11 year old wouldn’t want that? And you know what? Sometimes I do get that. Sometimes I can invent something everyone in the town thinks is the greatest thing since sliced bread, but you know what? Science isn’t a guaranteed process. There’s bound to be miscalculations and flaws and margins of errors in any experiment, as mine typically have. But suddenly, I’m the bad guy all because I wanted to cool down the heat on a summers day and the town gets stuck in an ice age. You think I planned for that to happen? No, but it’s the risk that comes from creating something, it can always backfire in some way. But the town doesn’t care if I’ve done good deeds for them, or if I invented something they themselves loved just as much as I did, they just care that it didn’t work out 100% perfectly, and then I’m back to being ridiculed for the things I find passion in. I don’t blame them to be upset, sure, but this cycle gets tiring time and time again. For once, I just want to hold one conversation with someone that actually keeps ME invested, instead of always having to keep my mouth shut to hear yet again about the 100 millionth episode of Ultra Lord, or about every single species of duck in existence. I listen, I smile, and I even engage the conversation as best I can, and I think that’s the most a guy can do talking to his friends and family about things he finds little interest in. But the second I want to show off something that I like or talk about something that interests me, I don’t even get a courteous ‘mhm’ and nod while I talk. Instead they just immediately ask me to ‘talk in English’ instead or compromise what I want to talk about, even though I never ask that of them and their topics of interest. And, you know what, that would be fine! All of that could be fine on its own if I wasn’t then instead mocked and ridiculed for being me. I know everyone gets bullied at my age at some point, but at least many of them have the option go off with their friends who share common interests and feel validated for it. Imagine being treated like a total loser just because you can’t play baseball or run track, only to suddenly be treated like an egomaniac when you show off what you CAN do better than them. For some reason, I’m immediately invalidated as a someone worthy of respect the second I’m not good at something, and everyone conveniently forgets whatever cool invention I was able to create a literal week before. So not only are my inventions ignored and treated like bragging or a nuisance when they do get public attention, they also become completely forgotten the second that they don’t. I’m sorry that I just wanted to be treated like i was special for something I cared about, I only took this job so I could keep following my passions, as I’m certain you’ve done just as well. Don’t forget you’ve hired people that aren’t even old enough to legally work in this country, yet still choose to berate me for oversights I made throughout. I didn’t know that it was an issue to not push the buttons on the register to confirm an order, and I apologize for not having done so in the first place. But you also threw us kids into a job with little training, and even told me just from a glance that I’m not good enough to work for you. You even talked badly about me to my own friends about my performance, who you may have noticed didn’t even bother defending me. That just goes to prove how little any of you take the time to actually understand my feelings or even stop to ask yourselves why I might try to show off for a little attention so much. Instead you immediately judge me like everyone else, and I’m sick of having to sit around and just take it. Give me my pink slip, I don’t need to sit around and listen to you berate me, like everyone else in my life has done time and time again. I don’t want to change who I am just because it might make you think less of me, I want to feel like I can be proud of who and what I am. I’m not giving up on the one thing that makes me feel special and gives me joy just because everyone else thinks it’s annoying. And if that is enough to make everyone hate me, maybe I never needed your conditional love and respect in the first place. Gotta blast."
The fact that it doesn't actually get too personal makes me feel like I'm at a friend's place and got caught in a sticky situation. It's honestly like a very chill teacher getting calmly angry, bloody terrifying.
@Eros Matthew Montallana hey, you aren't static! you can always change for the better and connect with other people. it might feel like a long and unrewarding process, but i assure you it's worth it. i've been there before. i was lonely and arrogant and depressed. i still don't think i'm fully recovered but i can feel genuine happiness now and it makes me proud of where i got to. you should keep going so that you can feel those feelings one day.
I like how whoever wrote this CLEARLY has an intimate knowledge of Jimmy Neutron based entirely on him listing all of Jimmy Neutron’s mistakes. He even referenced Shirley.
🎵 Back in the 90s i ws known as the boy geniiiiuuuuus 🎵 This dialogue could work in a Free Churros-esque setting if Skeet has been previously established over the current season and Jimmy worked there for a while.
Bolbi is a gigachad, he's free, he cares not of the same shamefulness of Retroville's clearly American ideals. Bolbi comes from a poorer land so he has no qualms about being himself because that's all he knows. Bolbi is happy and loves himself.
Hes the genius, but Skeeter is... well, now I'm thinking that maybe he was a fuckin smart kid too at Jimmy's age. He's been able to go third-person mode and see his situation for what it is/was. He wasn't on Jimbo's level, sure, but he managed to mostly head off the worst of the realization of actual normalcy and the resulting crisis. Jimmy hasn't gotten to an age yet where that realization is gonna kick in - it may never kick in, given how far above his classmates he _actually is_ - but still. Skeeter isn't a genius. Hell, he doesn't WANT to be a genius. He just wants to be a normal fuckin guy, same as anyone else. He wants to try and get Jimmy to that same point: understanding that it's so much better to just be a normal dude than to live on a pedestal. Just go the hell home, kid. Learn from my mistakes. Try to make yourself a reverse Flowers for Algernon situation while you're at it. Be a child. Eat your nuggies, refuse Brussels sprouts, enjoy being ten, big thankies. This totally isn't projection what are you trying to imply
You realize this is entirely a non canon interpretation for the purpose of making you and other people like you feel better for being willfully ignorant and having below average intelligence. Or taking a stupid joke but far too seriously and acting like jimmy has no humanity because he calls salt by it’s chemical name. Take your pick.
Skeet is a joke. He’s a jealous loser who’ll never accomplish anything in his life. He’ll live a boring, mediocre, miserable life while Jimmy is out there discovering the secrets of the universe.
Anyone notice just how angry he sounds at the end compared to the beginning? He goes from “big mcthankies from mcspankys” to “I’ll see you in hell Jim” kinda tone
@@JoeContext While also firing him instead of suspending him, and also putting sarcastic emphasis on Jimmy not saying “salt.” I dunno, maybe I’m just not able to see it as “a chance to rebuild and rethink” since he put a weird emphasis on “salt.”
Dear Lord, I thought this was gonna be the one where he briefly explains that not only is it weird to call salt Sodium Chloride, but is also factually incorrect. I wasn't expecting an existential roast!
Skeet was right up until the end. Despite the intelligence gap, The Neutrons genuinely seem like a happy, and surprisingly functional family for a cartoon. Jimmy and his Dad are shown hanging out at length and they enjoy each other’s company. Jimmy did invent stuff for his Mom ( a lot of the time she’ll refuse because she likes to do it her way ). Also it’s not like Jimmy doesn’t respect his parents, they’ve been shown on numerous occasions disciplining Jimmy. How many times has Judy said Jimmy’s full name “James Issac Neutron “ . Also you can’t say that Jimmy doesn’t value his friends, a lot of his schemes start because they’re bored or they want to do something, it’s not like Jimmy acts like he’s above them, they do normal kid stuff.
@@lukestorm4866so the dude went on a huge rant, retroactively painting Jimmy as a complete narcissist and painstakingly describing to him how much of a shitty future awaits him and how nobody will love him because of it... To a fucking child, due to some goddamn salt, all while being his superior in both age and position at a fastfood joint. Yeah, Skeet's got some issues, man.
@@rainbowspongebob And yet, Jimmy is still a kid. A middle / high schooler and a college student just cannot be comparable in terms of experience - that's basically the one thing Skeet has on Jimmy. He is expected to be mature enough to realize that Jimmy is still very young and is just starting to find his own place in the world. Intelligence really cannot speedrun you through that.
i always tried to escape a jimmy neutron episode, as if its a plague, i hated it in a childish way. i was a child to be fair. and this makes my brain go >:•)
@@fool4343 I sooooo understand what you mean, I used to be jealous of Franklin the turtle because he was oh so perfect knowing how to tie his laces and stuff 🤣
@@Saturnpsrond aw man i didnt have anything named franklin the turtle i think. maybe russian translators named him something weird and freaky and i just cant connect the dots
it's hard to give advice or even to talk about these deep subjects on their own, but finding a way to structure it, as done here, can make people understand.
Skeet made Jimmy Neutron into a Phoenix. Think about it. He didn't just roast him he bodied him until he was in a 20 foot grave in the middle of the Sahara then gave him the best advice of his life to live a perfectly happy life as his ultimate revival. Absolute legend.
Any other of Jimmys adversaries: "He did it. He completely destroyed him. And that without any form of physical violence. Only words. This hero of a man achieved with a simple speech what all our schemes and advanced weaponry could not."
@@dustee7553 first of all that comment was made nearly a year ago so i very clearly didnt "just" realize it second of all ive known for a damn long while just never ran into anyone with it
As one of the “gifted” kids who acted like Jimmy when I was younger, this actually hit really hard and I’m glad I learned this lesson young so I could sit back and laugh at this video instead of going through a crisis
Damn. I, like most "gifted" children, eventually encountered the "studying is dumb, I don't need too problem" and the subsequently hit the downward grade spiral which then lead to academic burnout. I've gotten past it but I'm not anywhere near as good at school as I used to be.
"Gifted kids who used to think that intelligence was the most important aspect of life and subsequently pushed other people away because of their behavior and lack of the ability to communicate and socialize" gang rise.
This is the prompt that makes me actually interested in Jimmy Neutron's universe now. I'd fucking pay if the guy that wrote that speech made a continuation of what Jimmy did after his speech. Jimmy wandering around, dazed, looking at everyone and everything in a different perspective. I NEED IT.
he's a gifted kid blown to cartoonish proportions. simply ask someone who was a fuckin genius in elementary school and then fairly average in high school what they've been doing since graduation and extrapolate from there
If you gave that speech to a gifted (but not as much as Jimmy) kid, he'd likely just dismiss you out of hand and use his big brain to reason his way into being right anyway. I mean, there's a reason why kids just end up bullying "Jimmies", because reason just doesn't work anymore. You have to show them the consequences of their worldview.
As a "gifted" kid who could have skipped grades and all that, I'll tell you earnestly that the expectations people hold for you, and immediate assumptions of you combined with a lack of challenge provided by the curriculum leads to nothing but self destruction. I became such a heavy critic of myself and how I needed to live up to the expectations everyone set before me that by the time I was in middle school I was already depressed and so antisocial that I tried to an hero just to get away from it all. I never had friends past elementary school and I let my grades plummet to the point of failing because I didn't care anymore and just wanted to be done. By the time I made it to high school I was so done with everything I phoned it all in and graduated with a shitty GPA and no ambition. I'm in my mid 20's now and I've only had real character development since I graduated and that's really stunted me. I'm just recently working to become a radiologist because it's good money, doing a lot to motivate myself to dig out of a lifelong slump so I can have something of a future instead of nothing. It's tough working through feelings of pointlessness and procrastination, habits I formed to block out the pressure on me as a kid, and it's made my life a lot harder as a whole. So yeah, be a Skeet, not a Jimmy
The bit where it says "You've never done anything nice for your friends" had me like, "What are you on about, Jimmy basically scored Sheen Libby and helped Carl clear the air and start an honest relationship with Elka," and then I remembered both of those involved an invention at some point. Shit, this is brilliant.
I genuinely think this whole conversation happened, because there are episodes where Jimmy tries to connect with the people around him. I remember one with his dad where they brought up that both him and Jimmy just have a hard time interacting because they both like challenges, it's just that what one considers a challenge is what the other considers to be either Child's Play or advanced college-level thinking. I don't remember if they found some other third thing to bond over, or if they just accepted it and decided to instead try to show more that they appreciate each other. I also more vividly remember one where they did be looking to the Future thing, and showed a old Jimmy Neutron who was all alone and bitter and desperate for connection, which overall had him show more Fox to his friends. I also remember an episode with Sheen where he gets hyper intelligent, and even get smarter than Jimmy. But he ends up going mad with power, so when Jimmy remove that he's genuinely thankful and states that he doesn't understand how Jimmy doesn't do the same thing. I believe Jimmy's response basically water down to "I have you guys." Edit: I don't think they ever had a mom episode that wasn't just the stereotypical Mother's Day episode. I think I was more of a problem with the times then anything else. But yeah, I genuinely think that Skeeter may have actually had a more child-friendly version of this conversation, and this combined a few other episodes led to Jimmy genuinely caring about his friends. Because I remember later on, he genuinely makes inventions for his friends and not for himself to be praised by his friends. I remember an episode where they had to do a project on Egypt, I believe it was specifically Libby. And so Jimmy blew them to Egypt, not to show off not to do anything like that, just because it would be easier than reading a textbook. I also remember later on he starts to figure out how to work with his friends the most. He knows is not going to learn by being in a classroom, so a lot of the ways he teaches Sheen stuff is physically showing him what he needs to learn. Letting him interact with it helps a lot. He figures out Carl needs someone to keep him focused, otherwise he's going to get distracted. He also eventually figures out, though takes forever because of the density that makes up his skull and brain matter, that the girl who bullies him but also seems to enjoy being around him likes him. I remember this one taking the longest, as it starts with him trying to be openly caring towards her, then only doing it when they're in private because he realizes it would make her uncomfortable, and eventually they both get comfortable enough to do it in front of their close knitted friend group. I think due to these interactions in learning to not define himself by intelligence, Jimmy would have actually grown up to make a fantastic teacher, working with his students as individuals instead of "here is the cookie cutter lesson". How he has the potential to be his own Miss Frizzle, taking the kids on wild Adventures, not to show off, but to physically show them what they're learning.
YES THANK YOU FOR POINTING OUT SOME GOOD MOMENTS- Jimmy does have a bit of an ego, but at the end of the day, he's an awkward kid growing up like any other... he just has more intelligence than sense, sometimes.
Don't forget in the movie when Carl shows Jimmy the drawing of a frog he made and Jimmy tells him it looks very good with a lot of sincere kindness in his voice.
I always loved this interpretation; Skeet is both the biggest condemner of Jimmy's actions, and the big brother Jimmy never had, but desperately needed!
it really is powerful. even though jimmy can practically invent whatever he wants due to being a super genius, it probably would be physically impossible for him to just call it salt. and since everybody else who isn't a super genius can simply call it salt, jimmy is effectively isolating himself. ignorance is bliss, i guess.
and the sad thing is that rick would probably nod along agree, thank them... and then insult them and retain nothing. which, atleast, is better than the average 4chan fan of it, although this rant would honestly be giving most of them too much credit.
@@anonymousoff-brand7538 To be fair the entire point of Rick is that he's not a good person and not someone to look up to or emulate. Too bad a lot of the fanbase doesn't realize that...
Don't let this distract you from the fact that skeet emplyoed kids under minimun wage and probabli didn't give Jimmy his severance payment Truly a mastermind.
It's okay, Jimmy didn't even enter his food orders into the register so the restaurant couldn't actually track how much money they were making and how much food was being made, so it kinda balances out
The fascinating part about this is that in early episodes of Jimmy Neutron, Jimmy was more insecure about his needs as a kid, almost worrying about his social status and his approach on girls and others. It kinda interesting on how the theme shifted later. Makes you think what Jimmy was after the fire nation attacked.
“Just a little sodium chloride” “Actually dude it’s salt” “That’s what I said” “No dude, this is iodized table salt. Which in addition to sodium chloride contains anti caking agents and potassium iodine, which is added to prevent iodine deficiency. So not only are you being overly pretentious by insisting on using scientific terminology for everyday items, you are factually wrong. Your arrogance is your downfall.”
@@killerkitten7534 "Your arrogance is your downfall. In fact, it always has been. Which reminds me of something. You know, Jimmy, while I can't say that you've never been responsible for helping out the town..." Finally. An opener. Now it's not an initial non-sequitur.
It's like when people say H2O instead of water or O2 instead of air. Table salt is a couple of things mixed in, drinking water isn't pure H2O and air hasn't got all that much O2 in it.
Alright. Here's a better question: Do you wanna have a bad time? Because if you take another step forward, you're really not gonna like what happens next.
I needed to hear this when I was younger. When I was very young I was easily beyond my classmates in a classroom setting, and because of this I received constant praise about how smart I was. To spare you all the L:R, you can guess what that did to my young ego. And by extension how I saw myself and my classmates. Since then I’ve significantly mellowed out and made my “intellect” no longer the entire core of my personality, (to top it off I’m not sure I was that smart to begin with, just good at school stuff) I would have had MANY more friends in school growing up if I’d heard this. I hope that this video helps other kids the way I needed it then.
There is a thing called emotional intelligence for a reason. Some people can have an IQ as high as the burj Khalifa. But have the emotional intelligence of a toddler.
Being smart and talented is great, but being the kind of person that people want to be around and work with is the most important skill you can ever develop.
i believe wisdom is the right "opposite" to intelligence. relying purely on emotion is one if the worst things you can do. skeet has life experience and knows how that decision would impact Jimmy's life, he has wisdom, not just listening to his emotion.
Oh boi....im scared of whats gonna happen...BRING IT ON PM Man this guy is going full on ranting, this is more words then the cristali incident MCTHANKYS FROM MCSPANKYS- PM NO- IM CRYING AND LAUGHING-
also like, table salt isnt just sodium chloride. its actually usually has iodine in it, is called iodized salt. it also almost always has some sort of anti-caking agent to stop it from clumping.
there is a different version i like more where he instead explains to jimmy what he's doing wrong in his job and says he's getting written up for not following store policy, but i feel like this is a timeline where jimmy argues with him about it and he snaps and makes this speech. it's amazing
The only thing that bothers me is that firing Jimmy at the end seems to come out of nowhere. He says he's trying to help Jimmy and then give him some real advice and then fires him, over something he says no customer is seriously going to care about.
Well maybe he realized that "Wait a minute, if I let him stick around he's going to do some weird science shit that's going to make me lose my job." I mean Jimmy does have a bit of a pattern with that.
Jimmy’s literally ten and lives in a nice suburban neighborhood. Telling him to go home and stop waisting his childhood by working at the equivalent of a McDonald’s IS helping him
Iirc he actually made a pretty big mistake at the register, since the transactions need to be filed, which didn't happen, because he refused to use the machine There's a difference between workplace rules and his personal thoughts
You know this would be a great clap back, but it clearly violates McSpankies tm Employee incident protocol, also Jimmy Neutron (despite being an egotist who deserves it) reserves the right to take it up with HR (without retaliation) and make a claim that A harassment incident occurred (this includes anyone in management) so that the proper disciplinary procedures (if corporate deems it) are carried out up to and including termination. There is a reason why he does not call Jimmy out as he is currently employed at McSpankies tm and must follow the proper management protocol, If anything this is only his first incident and does not require coaching, however it probably would not matter given that Skeet failed to prevent Jimmy from tampering with company property thus resulting in Many OSHA violations and irreputable brand damage as well as injury claims from the sentient restaurant robot when it was doing its illegal anti trust violating hostile takeovers against its competitors as well as costing several thousands of dollars from non essential power consumption used by Jimmies needlessly complicated computational matrix servers, as well as the AI mainframe he installed without corporate consent and protocol. In short Skeet could very well be terminated along with Jimmy if the restaurant isn't bankrupt from the lawsuits first.
Expectations: I'll laugh at Jimmy being brutally murdered by facts Reality: *remembering times of me being unneccessary smartass* PAIIIIIIIIIIIINNN ; - ;
I was… lucky? enough to be in a school where I was ostracised as hell for doing it and people let me know I was an annoying cunt. In hindsight, I’m grateful for it
I’ve always thought that people who are smart asses are just weaklings who never experienced through helplessness. That feeling when you get 100% or 95% in your course, but can’t answer a single of the 5 difficult questions on this high level math exam that your fellow age peers are doing across the country, where some have answered it? It’s a humbling, intense despair that forces you to stay humble for as long as you live. No matter how smart you get, eventually you’ll run into it again, something impossible for you to do.
*Jimmy's response* "Holy shit dude, I didn't need a lecture aboutpedestrian problems. I just genuinely didn't think you knew what salt was because you seems confused about almost anything anyone ever tells you."
I like how Skeeter has turned into this more amicable older brother. The way he goes on about human interaction kind of reminds me a bit about Tolstoy a little.

I love how symor progressively loses skeeters cartoonish voice to get more serious like he's talking to Jimmy directly
In the first two paragraphs, it sounds like Skeeter. But, the further it goes down, the deeper and more realistic his voice becomes.
@@Silver_Sonic_23 That shows that Skeeter is just wearing a mask, but for the first time, he took it off to show to Jimmy what the real world is. He made Jimmy look at someone, *something* real for once, and he tried to make him face reality. Let's see if James Isaac Neutron is able to, for once, admit he's wrong and hopefully, finally admit that he learned something new.
He sounds exactly the same. Sure, he may be trying to do a voice, but he sounds exactly like he always does, albeit he speaks more slowly, and a tad more lowly, than he did in the beginning.
The persona Skeeter puts on at work is all just one massive customer service smile. Skeeter acts like a silly dude around customers and his employees because it's the easiest way to relate to them. If your boss is just a chill dude who always praises a job well done, you're gonna be more motivated to work better. I really want to hear Rob Paulsen read this post in his Skeeter voice, it would be amazing. (Even if he doesn't sound exactly the same anymore)
The music does the same thing, I never noticed until I read your comment.
I don't know how the internet got around to using a minor fast-food employee from an old Nickelodeon show as a mouthpiece for cold-hard rationality but I respect it.
i think its a combination of Skeet having a pretty memorable way of talking, and also Jimmy just being so annoying that someone had to fill that role. Also having worked in the service industry Jimmy not using the POS system makes my eye twitch
Is that what he's supposed to be here? Isn't he basically just telling Jimmy that he values the wrong things?
@@faisalal-qassem3758 yeah seems like it
@Fynn Eick calling salt "sodium chloride" is rational behavior?
@@iwannaseehowlongyoucanmakethis It’s an extreme reliance on his form of rationality before humanity. To Jimmy the world is made of chemicals, numbers and principles. He calls it sodium chloride because that’s all it is to him. Not a seasoning, not something that makes food more enjoyable, just a chemical that everyone else uses a simplistic word for.

He said it to Piers Morgan after being asked. "People call you the smartest man alive, who else do you think is worthy of that title, myself excluded."
dont forget about how he did the maths in his head which is really dangerous cause the register needs to know what is being taken in and out of it and taxes
Yep, unless he knows how taxes work(he likely doesn't care about money any more than a way to acquire resources), and has never made a mathematic error (hes made many, resulting in some of the terrible events), then he shouldnt have done that.
That's really the worst thing, the system has no way of knowing if the inventory was sold or not, there's missing data that relys only on "trust me dude"

Jimmy needs to invent some super-ice for the fucking thermonuclear burn that my man just dropped on him
For once, the boy genius isn’t intelligent enough to respond. The lexicon is unable to find the words. And in this moment, Jimmy is just as intelligent as the rest of us, forced to face the humanity he chose his ego over.
Yes he can! He can invent a better him! He can change his life and spend time with his pop and ma! He can change his world view and recover by taking the criticism to heart!
What about memory wipe?
@@cameoshadowness7757 Perhaps he could. Or, more likely, he'd dismiss everything Skeeter said as nothing more than the words of a simpleton who doesn't know, doesn't understand what he's talking about. Jimmy very well could end up leaving this conversation behind him still thinking of himself as being in the right, and not change a thing about how he views the world and the people around him. He might very well change, yes, but he also might not, and doom himself to the fate he was warned of.
Any many can change and become a better person. Not every man will.
I can't tell is this was meant to be a roast, a character analysis, or a therapy session. That's the quality McSpanky's treatment.
Perhaps no distinction.
Also known as the Sunday special
It's the McSpanky's Sampler Platter.
I'd call this counseling more than therapy
It’s a big McSpanky to Jimmy’s ego.
Jimmy opened the door to his parent's house and stepped inside. He just stood there, at the landing, for a moment. From the kitchen, a shuffling was heard, and Jimmy's mother came into the living room. "Oh Jimmy, you're home early. I'm making something special for dinner tonight. How was your day?" Jimmy looked up and smiled softly. There was so much he wanted to say. All those years that he treated his mother like... like she wasn't his mother. Like she was a servant. All those things Skeeter said...
"It was good, mother. How... how was your day?"
Her eyes shone with some emotion he couldn't place. "My day? Well, I... I must admit I was a little lonely. I miss having you and your father around. That's awfully kind of you, to ask about my day. Actually, I started a sewing project today..." She went on about the pattern she found and what fabric she chose to sew it with, the thread she tried first, and how it turned out far too weak to handle the weight of the fabric so she had to start over. Jimmy came into the kitchen and sat down, listening with rapt attention. He never knew she was so skilled.
They spoke like that for a while, Jimmy asking questions about her methods and her preferences in thread count, as she worked on dinner. Just as she finished, his father arrived from work. His father, who worked so hard to earn his family a living. His father tried to be smart like his son and fit in with Jimmy's peers. He wanted so badly to show his son how much he loved him. Really, what more could Jimmy ask for? How had he taken all of this for granted? Shouldn't he of all people his age know better? "Jimmy! My smart boy. How was your day at work?" Jimmy felt a pang in his chest and he didn't understand why. "I had an enlight--" he paused. His dad might not know what that word meant. "Er, I had an eye-opening day at work today. I learned some new things that I'm sure will help me live my life better." His father grinned, looking almost baffled. "Wow, that's... fantastic, son! Tell us, what did you learn?"
He looked down at his hands. He had used them to build many, many things and to learn a great deal. Yet, today, he learned more than he had in all his years of scientific endeavor. He vowed to himself, then, to use his hands for better purposes. He didn't know what yet, but he would learn. "I learned that there's more to life than science and knowledge. I learned that sometimes it's better to share time with your family than build a super-computing medical robot." He sighed. "I learned that... my friends need me for more than my inventions." He looked up, to both of them. "Father, Mother, thank you. For feeding me, and caring for me, and working so hard. I thought I was being helpful, building all those things, but really I was being selfish. So... let me know if you need someone to wash the car, or take out the garbage. I want to help. It's the least I can do." His father's lip was quivering, and tears threatened to fall from his eyes. "Oh son," he said, and the tears fell, and Jimmy found himself wrapped in a warm hug. His mother burst into tears and wrapped her arms around both of them. Jimmy wondered how he'd lived without this. "I'm sorry. I'll be a better son, I promise," and he wondered why his voice shook as he spoke. "I love you, mom and dad."

@@dumbautisticmuttmore like “you’re going to do great things for the world but it won’t bring you or anyone around you true happiness”
@connortg5 That makes zero sense. If he's doing great things for the world, then by definition he's bringing happiness to everyone.
Curing cancer is going to bring happiness to anyone who has cancer or has a loved one with cancer.
You essentially proved my point. Skeet's whole argument is "W-Well you might bring about an era of global prosperity with your genius, but you're cringy and arrogant!" as if that isn't normal for a kid Jimmy's age. Imagine having beef with a literal middle schooler, while also probably violating child labor laws.
@@dumbautisticmutt yeah it will help a lot of people globally, maybe even the people around him will be saved by his inventions, but him and family and friends will almost certainly not be brought the same happiness from his inventions that they get from other humans, which as cheesy as it sounds to say "true happiness comes from love or whatever" is kind of proven, we are just generally made more happy by people than objects. Jimmy especially will be left unfulfilled, since he is relying solely on people praising him for his inventions rather than people actually liking him for him, as said in the video, he might get a pity fuck after giving some girl a jetpack ride in college, but he'll be left seething on the inside seeing everyone else being happy with people they genuinely love while he can't form an attachment deeper than "praise me for being smarter than you"

Are they even gonna care or read it? They might just instantly mock you and learn nothing, all that effort down the drain..."
I get a sense of dread for the poor soul trying to talk to people. However, I do think that Jimmy is, ironically, one of the only people who WOULD listen, since despite his ego, he seems like the kind of kid who, deep down, is still going to use his brain and listen, I feel like he is the kind of guy who cares about the lecture if you will. He's studious and smart as is, right? Why wouldn't he be likely to listen?
Touch grass
I haven't watched Jimmy Neutron for years, so--Anyway, qualifying statements aside (basically summing up to "but idk"), it does seem likely enough he might try to take some of this to heart. I like this comment.
He would likely listen to every word of it, but only to refute it later. But this time, there’s nothing to refute.
I've always believed that, even if it's unlikely that it'll work, it's worth trying to help someone.
Maybe I'm unique in this view, but I'd rather help ten people who didn't need it than not help one person who did.
So even if Jimmy doesn't listen, Skeet tried.

"Quite the contrary, Skeet. You talk down to me like I’m some sociopathic monster for the way I act, but you haven’t lived even one minute in my shoes. I’m smart enough to invent robots out of toasters and even a rocket ship out of an amusement park ride, sure, but I’m also still 11 years old. Any 11 year old... no, any person would want to feel like something they feel confident in is worthy of praise and admiration to even the smallest degree. When you were my age, did you not talk for long periods about even the smallest of accomplishments, just hoping for someone to say so much as a ‘good job’ for it? Every time I invent something, I do it because it’s what makes me happy, and I want to feel like the people around me might appreciate it too, and just reward me with a simple acknowledgement that I can be special, that I don’t have to limit myself or my ambitions just to be appreciated, that I can earn them by doing the thing I feel best suits me. Yet, I still have to go to the same school as everyone else my age, even if what I learn there doesn’t stimulate my mind. Everyone moans and groans when I show them something that I dedicated my time to, yet I have to pretend it doesn’t get to me when they just as easily cheer for something as simple as Nick telling a ghost story in class or Cindy pulling a childish prank on me. Of course I understand that what interests me is not the same as what interests them, but I don’t want to feel like an alien in my own town, never understood by even my own parents. I’ve tried to invent things for them, like orange juice squeezers or window washers, but they just awkwardly smile and lament the fact that now they have to get a new toaster instead. Maybe it’s selfish to want people to treat me like my gifts means even the slightest bit of anything to them, but, again, let me inquire just what 11 year old wouldn’t want that? And you know what? Sometimes I do get that. Sometimes I can invent something everyone in the town thinks is the greatest thing since sliced bread, but you know what? Science isn’t a guaranteed process. There’s bound to be miscalculations and flaws and margins of errors in any experiment, as mine typically have. But suddenly, I’m the bad guy all because I wanted to cool down the heat on a summers day and the town gets stuck in an ice age. You think I planned for that to happen? No, but it’s the risk that comes from creating something, it can always backfire in some way. But the town doesn’t care if I’ve done good deeds for them, or if I invented something they themselves loved just as much as I did, they just care that it didn’t work out 100% perfectly, and then I’m back to being ridiculed for the things I find passion in. I don’t blame them to be upset, sure, but this cycle gets tiring time and time again. For once, I just want to hold one conversation with someone that actually keeps ME invested, instead of always having to keep my mouth shut to hear yet again about the 100 millionth episode of Ultra Lord, or about every single species of duck in existence. I listen, I smile, and I even engage the conversation as best I can, and I think that’s the most a guy can do talking to his friends and family about things he finds little interest in. But the second I want to show off something that I like or talk about something that interests me, I don’t even get a courteous ‘mhm’ and nod while I talk. Instead they just immediately ask me to ‘talk in English’ instead or compromise what I want to talk about, even though I never ask that of them and their topics of interest.
And, you know what, that would be fine! All of that could be fine on its own if I wasn’t then instead mocked and ridiculed for being me. I know everyone gets bullied at my age at some point, but at least many of them have the option go off with their friends who share common interests and feel validated for it. Imagine being treated like a total loser just because you can’t play baseball or run track, only to suddenly be treated like an egomaniac when you show off what you CAN do better than them. For some reason, I’m immediately invalidated as a someone worthy of respect the second I’m not good at something, and everyone conveniently forgets whatever cool invention I was able to create a literal week before. So not only are my inventions ignored and treated like bragging or a nuisance when they do get public attention, they also become completely forgotten the second that they don’t.
I’m sorry that I just wanted to be treated like i was special for something I cared about, I only took this job so I could keep following my passions, as I’m certain you’ve done just as well. Don’t forget you’ve hired people that aren’t even old enough to legally work in this country, yet still choose to berate me for oversights I made throughout. I didn’t know that it was an issue to not push the buttons on the register to confirm an order, and I apologize for not having done so in the first place. But you also threw us kids into a job with little training, and even told me just from a glance that I’m not good enough to work for you. You even talked badly about me to my own friends about my performance, who you may have noticed didn’t even bother defending me. That just goes to prove how little any of you take the time to actually understand my feelings or even stop to ask yourselves why I might try to show off for a little attention so much. Instead you immediately judge me like everyone else, and I’m sick of having to sit around and just take it. Give me my pink slip, I don’t need to sit around and listen to you berate me, like everyone else in my life has done time and time again. I don’t want to change who I am just because it might make you think less of me, I want to feel like I can be proud of who and what I am. I’m not giving up on the one thing that makes me feel special and gives me joy just because everyone else thinks it’s annoying. And if that is enough to make everyone hate me, maybe I never needed your conditional love and respect in the first place.

Skeet is fucking powerful, standing up to Jimmy Neutron himself.
And we're sure that _Jimmy's_ the one who's the Genius in this show?
Hes the genius, but Skeeter is... well, now I'm thinking that maybe he was a fuckin smart kid too at Jimmy's age. He's been able to go third-person mode and see his situation for what it is/was. He wasn't on Jimbo's level, sure, but he managed to mostly head off the worst of the realization of actual normalcy and the resulting crisis. Jimmy hasn't gotten to an age yet where that realization is gonna kick in - it may never kick in, given how far above his classmates he _actually is_ - but still. Skeeter isn't a genius. Hell, he doesn't WANT to be a genius. He just wants to be a normal fuckin guy, same as anyone else. He wants to try and get Jimmy to that same point: understanding that it's so much better to just be a normal dude than to live on a pedestal. Just go the hell home, kid. Learn from my mistakes. Try to make yourself a reverse Flowers for Algernon situation while you're at it. Be a child. Eat your nuggies, refuse Brussels sprouts, enjoy being ten, big thankies.

Or taking a stupid joke but far too seriously and acting like jimmy has no humanity because he calls salt by it’s chemical name. Take your pick.
Skeet is a joke. He’s a jealous loser who’ll never accomplish anything in his life. He’ll live a boring, mediocre, miserable life while Jimmy is out there discovering the secrets of the universe.
Anyone notice just how angry he sounds at the end compared to the beginning? He goes from “big mcthankies from mcspankys” to “I’ll see you in hell Jim” kinda tone
That's how most rants go. They begin collected, but end in a climax.
Skeet doesn't want to see Jimmy in hell. He tore Jimmy down so he could rethink and rebuild himself into a better person.

Skeet was right up until the end. Despite the intelligence gap, The Neutrons genuinely seem like a happy, and surprisingly functional family for a cartoon. Jimmy and his Dad are shown hanging out at length and they enjoy each other’s company. Jimmy did invent stuff for his Mom ( a lot of the time she’ll refuse because she likes to do it her way ). Also it’s not like Jimmy doesn’t respect his parents, they’ve been shown on numerous occasions disciplining Jimmy. How many times has Judy said Jimmy’s full name “James Issac Neutron “ . Also you can’t say that Jimmy doesn’t value his friends, a lot of his schemes start because they’re bored or they want to do something, it’s not like Jimmy acts like he’s above them, they do normal kid stuff.
Well it's not like Skeet actually knows the finer details of the Neutron family, so that's probably an assumption based on how he treats others.

Final verdict: be an idiot like sheen and Carl so skeet doesn't roast you

This is the prompt that makes me actually interested in Jimmy Neutron's universe now.
I'd fucking pay if the guy that wrote that speech made a continuation of what Jimmy did after his speech.
Jimmy wandering around, dazed, looking at everyone and everything in a different perspective. I NEED IT.
he's a gifted kid blown to cartoonish proportions. simply ask someone who was a fuckin genius in elementary school and then fairly average in high school what they've been doing since graduation and extrapolate from there
If you gave that speech to a gifted (but not as much as Jimmy) kid, he'd likely just dismiss you out of hand and use his big brain to reason his way into being right anyway.
I mean, there's a reason why kids just end up bullying "Jimmies", because reason just doesn't work anymore. You have to show them the consequences of their worldview.
As a "gifted" kid who could have skipped grades and all that, I'll tell you earnestly that the expectations people hold for you, and immediate assumptions of you combined with a lack of challenge provided by the curriculum leads to nothing but self destruction.
I became such a heavy critic of myself and how I needed to live up to the expectations everyone set before me that by the time I was in middle school I was already depressed and so antisocial that I tried to an hero just to get away from it all. I never had friends past elementary school and I let my grades plummet to the point of failing because I didn't care anymore and just wanted to be done.
By the time I made it to high school I was so done with everything I phoned it all in and graduated with a shitty GPA and no ambition.
I'm in my mid 20's now and I've only had real character development since I graduated and that's really stunted me. I'm just recently working to become a radiologist because it's good money, doing a lot to motivate myself to dig out of a lifelong slump so I can have something of a future instead of nothing. It's tough working through feelings of pointlessness and procrastination, habits I formed to block out the pressure on me as a kid, and it's made my life a lot harder as a whole.
So yeah, be a Skeet, not a Jimmy
@@ben-chan420 damn bro that seems rough, hope you figure it all out and live happily someday
This is where Jimmy snaps
The bit where it says "You've never done anything nice for your friends" had me like, "What are you on about, Jimmy basically scored Sheen Libby and helped Carl clear the air and start an honest relationship with Elka," and then I remembered both of those involved an invention at some point. Shit, this is brilliant.
I genuinely think this whole conversation happened, because there are episodes where Jimmy tries to connect with the people around him. I remember one with his dad where they brought up that both him and Jimmy just have a hard time interacting because they both like challenges, it's just that what one considers a challenge is what the other considers to be either Child's Play or advanced college-level thinking. I don't remember if they found some other third thing to bond over, or if they just accepted it and decided to instead try to show more that they appreciate each other. I also more vividly remember one where they did be looking to the Future thing, and showed a old Jimmy Neutron who was all alone and bitter and desperate for connection, which overall had him show more Fox to his friends.
I also remember an episode with Sheen where he gets hyper intelligent, and even get smarter than Jimmy. But he ends up going mad with power, so when Jimmy remove that he's genuinely thankful and states that he doesn't understand how Jimmy doesn't do the same thing. I believe Jimmy's response basically water down to "I have you guys."
Edit: I don't think they ever had a mom episode that wasn't just the stereotypical Mother's Day episode. I think I was more of a problem with the times then anything else.
But yeah, I genuinely think that Skeeter may have actually had a more child-friendly version of this conversation, and this combined a few other episodes led to Jimmy genuinely caring about his friends. Because I remember later on, he genuinely makes inventions for his friends and not for himself to be praised by his friends. I remember an episode where they had to do a project on Egypt, I believe it was specifically Libby. And so Jimmy blew them to Egypt, not to show off not to do anything like that, just because it would be easier than reading a textbook. I also remember later on he starts to figure out how to work with his friends the most. He knows is not going to learn by being in a classroom, so a lot of the ways he teaches Sheen stuff is physically showing him what he needs to learn. Letting him interact with it helps a lot. He figures out Carl needs someone to keep him focused, otherwise he's going to get distracted. He also eventually figures out, though takes forever because of the density that makes up his skull and brain matter, that the girl who bullies him but also seems to enjoy being around him likes him. I remember this one taking the longest, as it starts with him trying to be openly caring towards her, then only doing it when they're in private because he realizes it would make her uncomfortable, and eventually they both get comfortable enough to do it in front of their close knitted friend group.
I think due to these interactions in learning to not define himself by intelligence, Jimmy would have actually grown up to make a fantastic teacher, working with his students as individuals instead of "here is the cookie cutter lesson". How he has the potential to be his own Miss Frizzle, taking the kids on wild Adventures, not to show off, but to physically show them what they're learning.
YES THANK YOU FOR POINTING OUT SOME GOOD MOMENTS-
Jimmy does have a bit of an ego, but at the end of the day, he's an awkward kid growing up like any other... he just has more intelligence than sense, sometimes.

"And they will call it salt." Man, that's a powerful statement given the context.
It’s stupid.
it really is powerful. even though jimmy can practically invent whatever he wants due to being a super genius, it probably would be physically impossible for him to just call it salt. and since everybody else who isn't a super genius can simply call it salt, jimmy is effectively isolating himself. ignorance is bliss, i guess.

For the record, most salt also has iodine mixed with it, so calling it sodium chloride was technically inaccurate.

“Just a little sodium chloride”
“Actually dude it’s salt”
“That’s what I said”
“No dude, this is iodized table salt. Which in addition to sodium chloride contains anti caking agents and potassium iodine, which is added to prevent iodine deficiency.

This genuinely taught me that emotion is as important as intelligence, no cap.
There is a thing called emotional intelligence for a reason.
Some people can have an IQ as high as the burj Khalifa. But have the emotional intelligence of a toddler.
Being smart and talented is great, but being the kind of person that people want to be around and work with is the most important skill you can ever develop.
Some people have great intelligence, but are so apathetic that they rather use that for personal gain and to take a shit on the world, constantly.
i believe wisdom is the right "opposite" to intelligence. relying purely on emotion is one if the worst things you can do.
skeet has life experience and knows how that decision would impact Jimmy's life, he has wisdom, not just listening to his emotion.

There is a reason why he does not call Jimmy out as he is currently employed at McSpankies tm and must follow the proper management protocol, If anything this is only his first incident and does not require coaching, however it probably would not matter given that Skeet failed to prevent Jimmy from tampering with company property thus resulting in Many OSHA violations and irreputable brand damage as well as injury claims from the sentient restaurant robot when it was doing its illegal anti trust violating hostile takeovers against its competitors as well as costing several thousands of dollars from non essential power consumption used by Jimmies needlessly complicated computational matrix servers, as well as the AI mainframe he installed without corporate consent and protocol.
