Iirc they make jokes about sponges regenerating multiple times. Stephen Hillenburg was a marine biologist and educator, which is what led him into making SpongeBob.

Have you ever seen Spongebob? Way worse things happen to him.

Right? I wouldn't be surprised if this has happened to him. He works in a fast food restaurant ffs. With a cheap boss and no concept of OSHA or food safety regulations, no less.

If y'all knew what went down in the back of similar restaurants in the real world, you'd probably never eat at a diner again. And that's with OSHA and Health Codes.

I feel bad about the one time he tried to start a fire and it worked until he realized he was hopelessly underwater.

Why? It might be kind of reassuring. Nasty car crash? Pull yourself back together.
