Did he put oil in it or something?

My kid requested a SpongeBob bento, and apparently I take these requests very seriously. 😂

After spending way too much time cutting tiny details, I present: LunchBob SquarePants.

I tried to include everything that makes SpongeBob instantly recognizable: the giant blue eyes, buck teeth, red tie, and the permanently enthusiastic smile that somehow survives living in Bikini Bottom.

The real review came from my kid, who immediately yelled "SPONGEBOB!" before even noticing the food. So I'm counting that as a five-star rating from the toughest critic I know. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Now I need the experts here to judge:

Does this actually look like SpongeBob?

What would SpongeBob himself rate this lunch?

More importantly... would Squidward be annoyed by it?

I'm pretty happy with how it turned out, but there's definitely room for improvement. Looking forward to hearing what fellow SpongeBob fans think!

"I'm ready! I'm ready! I'm ready!" 🍍🧽💛

“Sandy’s Rocket” is a Season 1 episode of SpongeBob SquarePants.

In the episode, Sandy builds a rocket to travel to the Moon for scientific research. SpongeBob begs to come along, and Sandy reluctantly agrees. That night, Patrick convinces SpongeBob they need to protect the rocket from aliens with “alien repellent.” While snooping around inside the rocket, the two accidentally launch it.

The rocket flies around the Moon but returns to Bikini Bottom. However, SpongeBob and Patrick mistakenly believe they really landed on the Moon and that the familiar surroundings are an elaborate illusion created by aliens. Armed with Sandy’s net guns, they begin capturing everyone in Bikini Bottom—including Squidward, Mr. Krabs, and even Sandy—thinking they’re all disguised extraterrestrials.

Eventually, SpongeBob becomes suspicious that Patrick is also an alien. Patrick accidentally traps himself with his own net gun, leaving SpongeBob to try flying the rocket “back to Earth.” This time, the rocket actually reaches the Moon, where SpongeBob finally realizes his mistake. The episode ends with the captured Bikini Bottom residents sarcastically telling SpongeBob, “We aliens would like a word with you.”

"Bob" is short for "Robert," so is SpongeBob actually named "SpongeRobert?"

Squidward is shown accidently locking himself in the walk-in freezer. 2000 years later, the door hinges finally rust off and he falls out. He asks "SpongeTron" (SpongeBob from the future) how to get back home. He is directed to the "time machine" down the hall. Squidward ends up accidentally breaking the time machine lever and is taken to "nowhere". He tries to escape by running away but keeps looping in circles. Eventually, he jumps up and down hard enough to break the floor and ends up falling back into the time machine. He pounds the lever and begs it, as if it were sentient (is it?) to take him back home. It immediately transports him back to his own time period. Where do you think Squidward went when it took him to "nowhere"? What might the time machine be?

Getting into SpongeBob but not sure what seasons to start off with

We all know about the three endings from that episode, and the new endings from this year. (If you haven't seen the 2026 endings, watch them on YouTube) It seems like no matter what SpongeBob, Patrick and Squidward wished for, it always ends with them in the Flying Dutchman's stomach. What if any of these third wish ideas worked?

• Wishing that the Dutchman can't consume them in any way, shape, or form.
• Wishing that the Dutchman would throw up after eating them
• Wishing that they tasted awful to the Dutchman
• Wishing that the Dutchman was allergic to them
• Wishing that the Dutchman lost his sock forever

Do you think any of these could work or not? Explain why

When I first saw these specials, I was surprised but also amazed by the lm. The stop motion was so FUCKING good. So far, from what I remember - only 2 speciala use only stop motion. A Halloween and Christmas special. I feel like they could use stop motion more in episodes. Heck - I bet it would be awesome if they made a stop motion spongebob movie. What do ya'll think?

What do you think of the idea for an episode that features a Bikini Bottom version of the Eltingville club that features characters such as Bubblebass, SpongeBob, Plankton and Sandy? If you have different ideas for the roster then comment below.

10/10

Yesterday's matchup between "Pre-hibernation Week" and "I Had an Accident" ended in a tie with 23 votes for both episodes! Let's run it back again today and see if we can get a few more voters to help settle which episode is advancing to Round 2!
