AboutWhat does the meme depict?

The '20 Minutes Adventure' meme prominently features a screenshot from an episode of "Rick and Morty," specifically depicting the characters Rick Sanchez and Morty Smith standing in front of a glowing green portal. Rick, the elderly scientist, is typically seen enthusiastic about embarking on a quick adventure, while Morty, his apprehensive grandson, stands beside him. This template is routinely edited to replace the characters with different individuals or to reflect humorous alterations, suggesting that anticipated short endeavors might drastically extend beyond their expected duration.

OriginWho did it first?

This meme traces back to an episode of "Rick and Morty" titled "Rest and Ricklaxation," which first aired on August 27, 2017, on Adult Swim. The particular scene setting the stage for the meme occurs at the beginning of this episode, featuring Rick encouraging Morty to join him for what is initially proposed as a 'twenty-minute adventure.' The outing humorously spirals into a six-day escapade. The pivotal scene can be revisited in this YouTube video.^[1]
