bless this new trend of saying ‘yikes’ honestly this is the word i’ve been looking for my whole life. the perfect combination of disinterested, detached, amused, and passive aggressive. five letters that say so much yet are vague enough that you won’t get involved in any drama
When I was in middle school, I took commissions from classmates for drawings of Spongebob characters for about a quarter a pop. It was one of my first forays into “professional” cartooning, and only a small example of the monumental impact of this plucky underwater sponge.
I know I’m not alone in believing that the show has left an indelible mark on the face of cartoon and internet history, and its aftershock will continue for many years.
Rest in Peace, Stephen Hillenburg. Thanks for the good times.
