SPONGEBOB
look at home wikipedia describes spongebob! He is a naïve and goofy sea sponge who works as a fry cook in the fictional underwater town of Bikini Bottom. SpongeBob has achieved popularity with both children and adults, though he has been involved in public controversy. The character appeared in a We Are Family Foundation video promoting tolerance, which was criticized by James Dobson of Focus on the Family because of the foundation's link to homosexuality. SpongeBob is a sea sponge, but he resembles a kitchen sponge. He has large blue eyes, many holes appearing all around his body and a mouth with prominent front buck teeth. He typically wears a white shirt with a red tie and brown square trousers, hence his family name "SquarePants". SpongeBob is a fry cook at the Krusty Krab restaurant, at which he has won employee of the month many times. He attends Mrs. Puff's Boating School, analogous to a driving school, but cannot pass the boating test. SpongeBob lives with his pet snail Gary in a large "pineapple-house" on 124 Conch Street in fictional Bikini Bottom, which is located beneath the real tropical isle of Bikini Atoll.His neighbors are Squidward, who is a squid and SpongeBob's co-worker at the Krusty Krab, and Patrick, a star fish who is SpongeBob's best friend. SpongeBob is an optimistic and energetic character, but also very naive. His hobbies include jelly-fishing (similar to bird watching and butterfly catching) and blowing bubbles with Patrick. He is unaware of how Squidward is annoyed by him. The first concept sketch portrayed the character as wearing a red hat with a green base and a white business shirt with a tie. SpongeBob's look gradually progressed to brown pants that was used in the final design. Originally the character was to be named SpongeBoy but this name was already in use. In 2005, a promotional video which showed SpongeBob along with other characters from children's shows singing together to promote diversity and tolerance,[16] was criticized by an evangelical group in the United States because they saw the character SpongeBob being used as an advocate for homosexuality.[17] James Dobson of Focus on the Family accused the makers of the video of promoting homosexuality due to a gay rights group sponsoring the video. The incident led to questions as to whether or not SpongeBob is a homosexual character. Hillenburg denied that SpongeBob was gay in 2002 when SpongeBob's popularity with gay men grew. He clarified that he considers the character to be "almost asexual;" he has been shown in various episodes to regenerate his limbs and reproduce by "budding," much like real sponges do. After Dobson's comments, Hillenburg repeated this assertion that sexual preference was never considered during the creation of the show.[20] Tom Kenny and other production members were shocked and surprised that such an issue had arisen. THE WAY THEY DESCRIBE HIM IS HILARIOUSLY WEIRD. what's with all the controversy of spongebob being homosexual/gay anyway? isn't it weird that people argue if a cartoon sponge is gay? imagine spongebob with a red hat.
