Spongebob 4 Years Later Meme

[Stayla Casillas]

SpongeBobTime Cards refer to recurring time cards in the cartoon TV series SpongeBob SquarePants. They have since found a convenient use in memes through Rage Comics, image macros and reaction images, sometimes with their words swapped to add additional edginess or over-the-top humor.

The time cards originate from the Nickelodeon animated TV series SpongeBob SquarePants. The first episode of the series to feature a time card was "I Was a Teenage Gary," which originally aired on October 28th, 1999. This episode featured the card "Three Days Later" (shown below).[1] Since the episode's airing, over 60 different cards have been used throughout the series by May 2012.[2]

In memes, SpongeBob Time Cards began appearing in Rage Comics at least as early as 2009, though the exact first is unknown. One early example was posted to 9GAG[3] on August 1st, 2009, depicting Rage Guy reacting to the song "Ai Se Eu Te Pego" by Michel Tel (seen below).

Over the next several years, SpongeBob Time Cards continued to be used as exploitables in various memes, video compilations, reaction images and more. On January 30th, 2012, YouTuber[4] MickfromShik3 posted one such compilation of the time cards in order, receiving over 4 million views in roughly nine and a half years (shown below, left). On October 17th, 2013, YouTuber[5] TheGalleTasHD uploaded another compilation, receiving more than 2.1 million views in roughly eight years (shown below, right).

On November 26th, 2019, Redditor detaileddwings posted an example of a time card being used as an exploitable to the /r/BikiniBottomTwitter[6] subreddit, receiving over 300 upvotes in six months (seen below).

The massive popularity of SpongeBob SquarePants has led to a wide variety of different Internet memes based on the show. Countless quotes, scenes, and characters from the show have been featured in memes and viral videos. This page is a list of notable memes that are very popular or may have had popularity on YouTube , DeviantArt, X and Reddit or have been officially used by Nickelodeon. They are ordered alphabetically.

This is a joke from "New Student Starfish." In the episode, Mrs. Puff asks Patrick to introduce himself to the class, and he says "24" instead of his name. Later, SpongeBob and Patrick whisper to each other, and SpongeBob thinks of something funnier than 24. Patrick wants to hear it, and he says "25," causing both of them to crack up with laughter.The quote, along with the scene of SpongeBob and Patrick in boating school, is often used in scenarios that mention the number 25. It is often referenced in instances where the number 25 is relevant, such as a 25th birthday cake. It was also featured in Youtooz toys and referenced in A Very Patchy Holiday Livestream.

This meme originates from the YouTube video titled "top ten spongebob funny faces.wmv," featuring a snapshot of SpongeBob with a horrified expression looking at Mr. Krabs' paint-covered dollar in the episode "Wet Painters" at #6.

This is a quote from "Mid-Life Crustacean." SpongeBob and Patrick ask Mr. Krabs if he is feeling young again. The quote is often remixed, used in different contexts, or edited to ask a different character if they are "feeling it."

Although Nickelodeon would later pull "Mid-Life Crustacean" from circulation in 2021 due to concerns over some key story elements being potentially inappropriate for children, official merchandise featuring the quote is still produced and made available for purchase.

This is a scene from "Sleepy Time" where SpongeBob enters Sandy's dream, saying this before he accidentally falls off an airplane into the sky. There became uploads of this meme replacing SpongeBob's scream with screams from other media.

This is a scene from "Goo Goo Gas" where Patrick turns into a baby when everyone else is turning into a baby. The scene amassed millions of views from Rickrolling. A popular video sets the tune to an edited excerpt from Soulja's Boy's "Kiss Me Thru the Phone." In a SpongeBob SquarePants Official YouTube channel video, the meme was referenced as a thumbnail for a "Goo Goo Gas" IRL recreation as the same name was used for a "Ink Lemonade" IRL video. This meme was also tweeted by the official SpongeBob SquarePants Twitter account about the meme in iconic scenes.[1]

This is a scene from "No Weenies Allowed" where SpongeBob fakes a fight with Patrick so he can prove he is tough and be allowed into the Salty Spittoon. Patrick throws the fight by beating himself up. Edited versions of the scene usually shows a fictional character or something/someone watching the episode making it look like they're the one actually doing it. This meme was later used as an emote for Patrick's morph in SpongeBob Simulator.

This is a scene from "Skill Crane" where Mr. Krabs asks Squidward why he doesn't need some more change, and Squidward angrily replies saying that he is all out of money. Several edits of this scene have the word "money" heavily distorted.

This is a scene from "New Student Starfish." During class, Patrick tosses SpongeBob a picture he drew, depicting a rather ugly obese-looking Mrs. Puff with the words "Big Fat Meanie." When Mrs. Puff sees this, she takes on the same appearance as the drawing and says "As if I really look like this!," then puts the picture in a drawer with other ugly pictures of her inside.

This is a set of two images from the online game, Kah Rah Tay Contest. They show SpongeBob clasping his hands together and leaning over. The images are commonly used as a reaction image to various instances of people making an unwise decision. Also, there was an official pin made from this meme.

A scene from "Prehibernation Week," when SpongeBob and Sandy are doing extreme activities, Sandy passes by a camper fish at high speed, causing him to burn. The meme is used to reflect when someone is used to a chaotic situation.

This is a line said by Patrick Star in the episode "Wet Painters" when SpongeBob is trying to open a can of paint. In the early 2020s, the scene was used in multiple reanimations and parodies on YouTube (such as a version in which SpongeBob yells at Patrick to "shut up.").

This is a quote from the episode "Chocolate with Nuts," shouted by one particular incidental fish character. It spawned as a popular YTMND fad, which has since spread to YouTube and other sites. This meme was also referenced in When You Wish Upon a Pat,[2][3] "Chocolate with Nuts: Puppet Edition!," and "A Very Patchy Holiday Stream Special."

This is a distorted image taken from a scene in "Patty Hype." In the scene, Mr. Krabs is at the Pretty Patty stand, surrounded by angry customers. The picture is used in memes to represent sudden confusion. The meme's most well-known use was titled When you wake up from a nap.

An official shirt of the meme was released to Hot Topic in 2019. The official SpongeBob social media accounts also posted a reimagining of the meme by storyboard artist Caroline Director, featuring SpongeBob in place of Mr. Krabs. The meme was used as a theory for SpongeBob's embarrassing Christmas party photo, as mentioned in "The Secret Box."

This meme is from a 2007 video that consists of the song Crank That from Soulja Boy being played over clips of "Opposite Day," "Pizza Delivery," "Hall Monitor," "Sailor Mouth," and "Gary Takes a Bath."

This is a quote from the episode "Wishing You Well," where after SpongeBob, Patrick, and Squidward are stuck in the Krusty Krab's well, Squidward reveals to be claustrophobic when Patrick stands near him. Having no real idea or meaning of what the word is, SpongeBob thinks that Squidward is afraid of Santa Claus. When Squidward denies it, Patrick attempts to scare the latter by saying "Ho Ho Ho!," which SpongeBob thinks is actually scaring Squidward.

This scene became a popular meme template featuring other characters (SpongeBob) confusing words for something else after another character (Squidward) tells them that they are afraid of something and then a third character (Patrick) attempting to scare them.

This is a quote from the episode "Something Smells." In the episode, Troutenheimer smells SpongeBob's breath at Reef Cinema and makes the noise "Deaugh!" with a weird look on his face. He then runs out of the cinema.

This scene has become very popular on sites such as YouTube, where it has become a subject of remixes, edits, and compilations. It is usually spelled as "Deuueaugh!" in video titles, but Nickelodeon spells it as "deaugh."

This is a quote from an interstitial from the defunct "SpongeBob's Nicktoon Summer Splash" programming block in which SpongeBob reads a piece of viewer mail asking Squidward to play "What a Girl Wants". Edits replacing the short song Squidward plays in response (usually with something that sounds nothing like a clarinet) have become popular, often deliberately rendered in low-quality video to poke fun at the interstitial's low-quality animation.

This is a quote by Patrick in "Hooky" where he leans on one hook with a lot of hooks in his mouth. He then says to SpongeBob, "Does this look dangerous?" The quote is used again in "Ridin' the Hook." The image of Patrick saying this quote was used in The Complete 1st Season and The Complete First Season in the episode selection screen as the select image.

A scene from the episode "Naughty Nautical Neighbors," where Squidward plays Solitude in E Minor for Patrick on his clarinet, to which Patrick falls asleep at the very first note. The meme is also referenced in SpongeBob's Game Frenzy.

This image was drawn by DeviantArt artist u/kez-the-emo-lord[4] in one of the pages of the book I Ripped My Pants! in 2007. It became popular the following year, being used in countless YouTube video edits from 2008 to 2009, but eventually became an ironic meme.[5] 13 years later, the meme appeared in the Kamp Koral: SpongeBob's Under Years episode "What About Meep?," making it canon that SpongeBob had an emo phase.
