Who lives in a pineapple under the sea?

As much as you may want to deny it, you all know what comes next.. Spongebob Squarepants!

To some it may not make any sense, they don't understand this sponge of a guy simply because they don't want to. To others, Spongebob was and still is to this day, one of their favorite cartoons. Why is it that this yellow sponge has left such an impact over the years?

1. Spongebob has the attitude that everyone should have.

I mean no matter what, he's always ready! Episode after episode you see trials and hardships but he never fails to stay positive..

How many of us could honestly say we would have those reactions?


2. He has impeccable work ethic.

I can only hope to one day love my job as much as Spongebob loves his.


3. He does not limit himself in any way, shape, or form. There is nothing he won't try to do!


4. His words are deeper than the ocean itself..


5. His wide range of facial expressions are nothing short of impressive..

..and those are just a select few.


BONUS: He just makes you happy!


As a kid, Spongebob was my favorite. As an adult, Spongebob is still my favorite. Anytime I'm having a bad day and just need some pure, innocent, joy: Spongebob is where I turn.

Growing up I had several friends who weren't allowed to watch Spongebob. Although, I've always believed it was more for the parents sake of not being able to stand the sponge guy rather than the show not being appropriate for children.

Kid's shows today are progressively getting as basic and cheesy as they possibly can. Spongebob may not teach your kid how to read or write but isn't that what school is for? I would much rather encourage my kids to watch a show that teaches about character, while is also enjoyable to me as well!

One of my biggest pet peeves is when someone does not try to help their self before asking others. How can someone else be expected to help you if you do not first do that yourself? I'm all about helping those that need it when the time comes, however whenever someone does not even attempt to help him or herself first then that becomes a huge problem. As we all have learned, people tend to take advantage of us in one way or another. I am sure we all read this short story when we were younger and it follows that same principle:
