Stuff is like crack .... way too addictive!!

You could watch shows one after the other. I turned it on at 8:30 am. Next thing I knew it was 10:30 pm.

Where did the day go?
 
I never understood the attraction of this show among adults. Is it like R&M with meta humor, or subtle adult jokes, etc?

It was always a spiritual successor to ren and stimpy, IMO, minus the 90s edgelord over-the-top feel. Like shrek.

A contrived half story in bite sized episodes about rando crap for the Internet age and the autistic addiction to exact same nonsense - but in different situations.

It isn't even funny, it's just.. a story thats too lame to eat up a full hour. And even then, there's always a fast forward in the already short episodes. So gen z gets the rando stuff.

Millennials get the nostalgia trip - plus they now identify with squidward and sandy as the adults of the show onstead of the unerring wonderment of bob and patrick.

The appeal is basically internet culture - sarcasm, stupidity and memes.

At least that's my opinion. There is noh logical way to truly explain why - but your Facebook and Twitter feeds r all memes and sarcasm, which translates directly to a SpongeBob episode as a script. Without fail. So.. internet in a cartoon. Right?

As an ex-chef, when the show first came out, I could relate to the qualms of the fry cook. It was a parody of that lifestyle, which a lot of people could relate to. I haven't seen the show for a long time since, though.

This is a trivial pursuit question, that lost my partner and myself the game, because my wife watched the wretched fucking show. She even sang the fucking song to rub it in!

Gord help me, I may have seen every episode and all the movies. Even worse, my kids moved out years ago. I need help. Wonder if there is any SpongeBob porn out there?
