I must have missed the episode where Spongebob takes acid.

[–]Fapologist 30 points31 points ago

That episode was fucked up by spongebob standards.

[–]jgibson02 6 points7 points ago

I think the bar got set pretty high in that one where Squidward killed himself.

[–]MozzarellaSquirrel 9 points10 points ago

But... But I like it :c

[–]clemoh 36 points37 points ago

That is one of my favorite episodes. The Dutchman has to stay with Spongebob for a while when his ship breaks down. Spongebob gradually becomes desensitized to The Dutchman's terror. This little gif is his last, best attempt to terrify Spongebob. Awesome gif.

[–]Dann01 13 points14 points ago

wasn't that when the Dutchman gave Spongebob the sheet of acid?

[–]FerretHydrocodone 9 points10 points ago

This episode has the exact same plot as an earlier sponge bob, in that one it was squidward staying with him.

Both episodes:

Spongebob destroys the victims home.

Victim comes to live with sponge bob.

Victim stays for months and eventually overstays welcome.

Spongebob helps the victim get back on their feet and fixes their house.

WTF

God damn am I high right now.

I like both episodes though despite having the same plot.

[–]Gag3b69 2 points3 points ago

Spongebob did nothing to the flying dutchmens ship, the Dutchman crashed his ship into a rock and saw spongebobs house and decided to stay with him until repairs are finished

[–]FancyHearingCake 2 points3 points ago

I thought the one where Squid overstayed his welcome was the one where he got fired and Spongebob took him off the street, and Spongebob gets his job back.

[–]tumblingspider 11 points12 points ago

I love the brief appearance of JR "Bob" Dobbs (Church of the SubGenius).

[–]GaryDuder 2 points3 points ago

Isn't Spongebob slack!? He lives a life of leisure.

[–]Nirriti_the_Black 2 points3 points ago

With bubbles coming out of his pipe!

[–]rocketparrotlet 2 points3 points ago

My dad gave me this book and told me it was awesome. I never really sat down and read it because it didn't make any sense. I should try to find it again.

[–]tumblingspider 0 points1 point ago

It is awesome. The TL;DR is that it is a brilliant swipe at organized/institutionalized religion (and the hypocrisy inherent in it for many -- at least in how it is practiced -- and I consider myself a Christian). Some of it is just plain-old trippy, absurdist fun, too. I first saw SubGenius publications back in college (pre-internet; I'm that old). If you have some time to kill: http://vimeo.com/11369575

[–]slp50 2 points3 points ago

Me too!

[–]Bonetastic 10 points11 points ago

anyone watch the Squidward in Clarinetland episode? one of the weirdest things I have ever watched..

[–]TheDemonMelon 3 points4 points ago

Oh Jesus, I saw that once years ago and never saw it again, I thought I had imagined it, that thing is real? Spongebob has some of the weirdest shit!

[–]Womec 4 points5 points ago

Now try watching Adventure Time.

[–]MemeBot420 -2 points-1 points ago

adventure time is like... so hardcore!

[–]CoriCat -5 points-4 points ago

Adventure time is the best!

[–]TheDemonMelon 7 points8 points ago

Looks at 'spongebob is why violent crime exists' post Looks at the gif

THAT CRAZY WOMAN WAS RIGHT!

[–]VoteJewbama 0 points1 point ago

link?

[–]TheDemonMelon 0 points1 point ago

Not on my iPod, but it was on the front page

[–]VoteJewbama 2 points3 points ago

[–]TheDemonMelon 0 points1 point ago

Cheers mate

[–]Dj_H4ck7 6 points7 points ago

[–]magonz24 9 points10 points ago

That was a Misadventures of Flapjack moment...

[–]Flickstick 1 point2 points ago

One of my absolute favorite cartoons, also one of the weirdest!

[–]lazerllama10 3 points4 points ago

This. This was messed up. Even for Spongebob.

[–]xorgthezombie 6 points7 points ago

Spongebob gave me fear boners.

[–]MrPachrick[S] 2 points3 points ago

Fear boners are the best boners

[–]aboardthegravyboat 1 point2 points ago

Yeah, the old fuck, fight, or flight reflex.

[–]GaryDuder 0 points1 point ago

It's like your body says, "Well, we're about to die. Maybe he'll squeeze one more off before it goes all black."

[–]JimAdlerJTV[!] 2 points3 points ago

Fear-ection

[–]eamantite 1 point2 points ago

fearection!

[–]blackloveinspace 2 points3 points ago

Bob Dobbs!

[–]stb14808 1 point2 points ago

Call me crazy, but I think it's an appropriate amount of desensitization for kids. It's still a cartoon at the end of the day. And they're only a couple of channels away from murder shows, porn, and all that other R-rated stuff.

[–]andreyxx2 0 points1 point ago

Seriously, WTF?

[–]Dreadmonkey 0 points1 point ago

For Kids!!!

[–]scottsimsa 0 points1 point ago

Remind anyone else of Akira?

[–]SuperBeast4721 0 points1 point ago

Isn't this a more recent episode though?

[–]helloz00 1 point2 points ago

Nope, this one's a classic. One of the good ones, too.

[–]SuperBeast4721 0 points1 point ago

Wow I feel old.

[–]Flantastic185 0 points1 point ago

It's creepier now that it's sped up

[–]Prosopagnosiape 0 points1 point ago

Ah, that was a good one.

One time i had a nightmare about being a bear being skinned alive, horribly graphic and realistic (the sensation of tugging skin from meat was realistic, as a taxidermist i know how much resistance it gives and stuff). It was a nightmare that left me shaken for a week, and i'm used to nightmares. Anyway i woke up all shaken, and decided to put on some nice, relaxing spongebob. Cue three episodes in a row where at some point someone is skinned or has their face's skin ripped off!

[–]fiercepenguin 1 point2 points ago

I saw this on tv, it was the day I become a man. I was 28.

[–]RainbowKush 0 points1 point ago

which episode is that

[–]cookehMonstah 0 points1 point ago

Does anyone know which episode this is?

[–]Alymsin 0 points1 point ago

Season 4, Episode 10: Ghost Host

[–]cookehMonstah 0 points1 point ago

Thanks dude!

[–]knighmare 0 points1 point ago

I cant find the link but read an article over on r/atheism, some crazy bastard had written to their local paper a letter to the editor about how spongebob was evil and the cause of all violence in the modern world.

[–]FullMoon1108 -1 points0 points ago

How

[–]Lbones007 0 points1 point ago

Suddenly... Bruce Campbell!

[–]leRedditor007 -1 points0 points ago

You though that was bad? Check out Spongebob "red mist". (Possibly NSFL)

[–]TheFreakingBatman 0 points1 point ago

Not that scary. Then again I've already seen it a bunch of times before.

[–]Martianmellow12 0 points1 point ago

DAFUQ?!

[–]REdd06 0 points1 point ago

Something happened between the semi-innocence of seasons one and two and this. Did the original writers jump ship? Seriously. Look at the Sandy/Spongebob karah-tay episodes (or any episode in the first two seasons) and then look at what came after.

You left out the best part! Where Spongebob just says "meh" to it!

[–]enjoytrees 0 points1 point ago

Thanks, now I'll probably see this during my next shroom trip

[–]mattmc318 0 points1 point ago

I was okay up until the part with the spiders. Fuck spiders. ಠ_ಠ

[–]ihateredd1t 1 point2 points ago

Hey, this is after the movie, you know, when spongebob lost all sense of comedy...

[–]whyamiscreaming 1 point2 points ago

I know! I knew I wasn't the only one that thought this. Last I heard the original writers left after the movie was made.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point ago

Was that....Gaston!

[–]pearljamman010 -1 points0 points ago

The amount of upvotes show how many new people must be on Reddit. In a year, I have seen this no less than 16 times.

[–]prayingformojo 0 points1 point ago

I knew what it was as soon as I read "Spongebob".

[–]knuckboy 0 points1 point ago

Too old to have seen SB when a kid, but I've caught up now that I've spawned three. This episode gave me nightmares as an adult. Love SB. And yes, I'm also a Brony - though Pound Puppies are the new deal.

SPONGEBOB Scaring kids since 2011
