The character was designed by marine biologist and animator Stephen Hillenburg, and is voiced by Tom Kenny. Although everyone refers to him as Spongebob, in the episode Patrick SmartPants, the smart Patrick addresses him as "Robert." SpongeBob is an incredibly optomistic sea sponge whom resides in a pineapple house in the city of Bikini Bottom, with his pet snail Gary. He works as a fry cook at the local burger joint, the Krusty Krab alongside his neighbor, Squidward. SpongeBob is best friends with Patrick Star, and enjoys bubble blowing and jellyfishing. SpongeBob is a boating school student at Mrs. Puff's Boating School. Contents 1 Appearance 2 Age 3 General 4 Career 5 Leisure 6 International Translations 7 Controversy 8 Trivia 8.1 History Facts 8.2 Name 8.3 Voice/Character 8.4 Other Trivia Appearance SpongeBob is a porous yellow sea sponge with eyes, a mouth with prominent front teeth and dimples, arms, legs, hands and feet. He resembles a kitchen sponge more than a sea sponge. SpongeBob has the ability to morph into other shapes at will, and can grow back pieces that fall off him. His limbs can become variable in length and shape at will and are retractable as well as detachable. SpongeBob typically wears a white shirt with brown pants, although he has been known to run naked (or in his underwear). As a part of the attire, his shoes are shiny black, with an almost spheric bulge at the front (although still a part of the shoe proper, unlike the balls of clown shoes). He usually wears a pair of white briefs underneath his pants, although he has been seen wearing blue, green, and red briefs (all at the same time, nonetheless) and even pink to honor his best friend, Patrick. At night, he sometimes has a green bathrobe on but mostly goes to sleep with his underwear, socks and shoes. When he goes "swimming", he wears a pair of blue swimming trunks (although he still wears his underpants, socks and shoes). He also wears a red bow tie in exchange for his necktie on special occasions. Age SpongeBob's is 12 years old. He acts like a young child, yet has a job. He lives by himself and can afford his own house without supervision of his parents. He does not go to a normal school, but to a boating school with students of all age. He has also taken a driving test a million times. Creator Stephen Hillenburg has always said that he wanted SpongeBob to remain ageless, but the show has dropped hints towards SpongeBob's age. In the episode "Sleepy Time", SpongeBob has a dream where he receives his driver's license, which states that his birth date is July 14,. However, Hillenberg stated later in an interview that it was only in a dream and can't be confirmed. The same birthdate was seen in his temporary driver's license in the episode "No Free Rides," when Mrs. Puff slid him through school. This was not a dream, so this is a possible birthdate. SpongeBob mentioned in the episode "The Chaperone" that he couldn't get a date to his junior prom, meaning that SpongeBob must have at least graduated from high school. In the movie, SpongeBob has all of his 'Best employee awards' from the Krusty Krab are on his wall, and there are enough (374) to indicate that, with the total accumulation of the months, he is at least in his mid-forties. In the commentary of the movies on the DVD, it said he's an adult that acts like a kid. In "SB-129", when Squidward travels 2000 years into the future, it is 4017 on a calendar. This means the show could take place around 2017. In two episodes, SpongeBob's birthday is written on a driver's license as July 14, 1987. If the show takes place in 2017 and SpongeBob was born in 1987, this would mean that SpongeBob is 30 years old as of season one. However, this is just a speculation. From the known information, it can be concluded that SpongeBob is an ageless, immature adult. General SpongeBob is described as sweet, kind, funny, cheerful, hard-working, and trusting. He has a buck-toothed grin, tremendously expressive face and square body that compliments his pure and good nature. SpongeBob will rarely knowingly do wrong or harm to anyone except on April Fools Day and never without remorse. However, he has been known to shout and curse (even "obscenities" such as Tartar Sauce, Fish Paste, or Barnacles) when angry or frustrated. Although he is an adult, he has a very childish nature, shown to great effect in the episode "Grandma's Kisses", at which he is at his most childish, as well as in The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie. Although a good-natured sponge, many characters seem to avoid him. SpongeBob is very easily overexcited about almost anything, like simple daily tasks and things of which he doesn't know of (such as when Squidward invited him to strike at the Krusty Krab, SpongeBob celebrated for it although he did not know the meaning of the word strike). This, along with his repetitive talking and loud, annoying laughter makes him a huge annoyance to others, especially Mrs. Puff, Squidward and Plankton. Perhaps the most long-running paradox of this character is his strength. He has been known to have enormous difficulty lifting even the lightest of objects, yet in Dunces and Dragons, he was able to knock Sandy's ancestor, the Dark Knight, unconscious with a single karate chop. Normally though, he can function at a reasonable level. SpongeBob's insides and skeleton have been shown various times (eg. when he appears 'dead' in some future 'flashbacks'), but every time they appear different. His skeleton varies from a simple spine, although he is an invertebrate, to a perfect square. He cannot be harmed in fights due to the fact that he is a sponge; this is depicted in the episode "The Bully" when SpongeBob is being bullied; due to the sponge-like nature of his body, he absorbs things - similar to a household sponge. Therefore, when the bully actually fights him, SpongeBob does not feel a thing, and, rather than fighting back, continues to go through his day normally, until the bully is too worn out to keep fighting. However, in "I Had an Accident", he broke his backside in a skiing accident. SpongeBob has one pet, a very smart snail named Gary. Gary's meows are generally understood by most of the residents of Bikini Bottom, and in the episode, "The Secret Box", Gary said "Ehh...No." to SpongeBob. Despite a few unusual or unexpected quarrels, SpongeBob loves Gary dearly and can't do without him, as shown in "Have You Seen This Snail?". Gary usually has solutions to help SpongeBob out of his dilemmas. Gary and SpongeBob live together in a pineapple under the sea at 124 Conch Street, Bikini Bottom (this address was seen on SpongeBob's driver's license in the episodes "Sleepy Time" and "No Free Rides"). SpongeBob's best friend is Patrick Star, a starfish that is not so smart, and together their adventures often lead them into trouble. Like SpongeBob, Patrick too is very cheerful and acts childish. Whilst characterized as immature, SpongeBob's mathematics are brilliant. The most noticeable instance of this is in "Squid's Day Off", where he offers the change for $1.00 in all sorts of forms, including: four quarters, ten dimes, twenty nickels, one hundred pennies, and one quarter/three dimes/seven nickels/ten pennies. Career SpongeBob has a career as a fry cook at the Krusty Krab restaurant, home of the Krabby Patty. He takes his job seriously. He was Employee of the Month 374 consecutive times, which would mean he has worked there for at least thirty-one years and two months. According to U.S. labor laws, this would put his minimum age at around fifty two years, two months, but in the episode "Sleepy Time", his 'driver's license' says he was born on July 14, 1987. SpongeBob works alongside Squidward–much to Squidward's dismay. Squidward manages the cash register for his money-obsessed boss, Mr. Eugene Krabs. SpongeBob, in some episodes, seems to have attained a celebrity like status in Bikini Bottom for his "masterful" fry cooking. In the episode "Squid on Strike," he is referred to as a "legend" by a young fry cook who wants to take his job and is asked to sign the young boy's spatula. In another episode, he is offered a job as King Neptune's fry cook, but turns it down because Patrick was forbidden to go with him. SpongeBob has never been a minute late for his job, except in "Hooky" - he was two minutes late because he got hooked - and in "Have You Seen This Snail?" - he was fifteen minutes late because he was so tired after searching for Gary. SpongeBob also failed to attend on time in The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie, where he was several minutes late after eating ice cream all night with Patrick at Goofy Goobers, and being passed over for a promotion. He often prizes his punctuality as in "SpongeBob Meets the Strangler", where he has a party for his 100% on time percentage, and another party 20 seconds later for his birthday (although, Patrick stated that they do what the party invitations tell them to do, so it's possible they weren't celebrating his birthday). Spongebob also served a short stint in one episode as the speedster, "The Quickster" (parody of The Flash and Quicksilver) in the International Justice League of Super Acquaintances or The IJLSA 4 short. Leisure Spongebob has a relatively large amount of time on his hands, he frequently gets days off at the Krusty Krab, and as a result he spends his free time with his best friend Patrick Star, and especially enjoys practicing karate with his other friend Sandy Cheeks (a squirrel from Texas who wears a space suit to breathe underwater), as well as catching jellyfish at Jellyfish Fields. To date, he has caught, named, and let go every jellyfish in Jellyfish Fields at least once, except the blue jellyfish, until the end of the episode, "No Name", until later in the episode: "Jellyfish Hunter" (Who he calls 'Friend', after the jellyfish helps him discover Mr.Krabs is using jellyfish to mass-produce special Krabby Patties in terrible conditions.). SpongeBob has yet to keep a boating license (analogous to a driver's license), because he fails every driver's test at Mrs. Puff's Boating School, mainly due to a tendency to become nervous once behind the wheel (he has been shown to know what he's doing everywhere but inside the boat). Despite this, he perpetually and continuously attends boating school in an attempt to get his license (and because he enjoys it), much to the woe and frustration of his boating instructor Mrs. Puff. At one point, Mrs. Puff becomes so frustrated she gives SpongeBob his boating license by allowing him to do "extra credit". She then takes it back realizing how much chaos he could cause with his license. When Mrs. Puff is fired in "Mrs. Puff, You're Fired", SpongeBob's new teacher actually trains him so much, that SpongeBob can drive very well–but only if he is blindfolded. In many episodes, such as "As Seen on TV", "Band Geeks", "The Camping Episode", "Ripped Pants", The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie, and most SpongeBob video games, it is suggested he has brilliant guitar and singing skills. He also likes to blow bubbles, surf, sun bathe, play the ukulele, and watch his favorite TV show, The New Adventures of Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy. International Translations Main article: International Following of SpongeBob SquarePants Controversy Main article: SpongeBob SquarePants controversy SpongeBob SquarePants, like many other Nickelodeon shows, has had to endure controversy at one point or another. However, due to the show's almost "extreme" popularity, the controversy surrounding it has been more or less larger than with other Nicktoons. Some scientists claimed Spongebob was gay but, they later dropped the charges and Steven Hillenburg has denied this on numerous occasions. Trivia History Facts SpongeBob was originally going to be called SpongeBoy, but the name was already trademarked. SpongeBob was not always depicted as a kitchen sponge-type shape; in the early years of planning, he was depicted as a luffa. Name The name Bob, is short for Robert, which is his full name, as Patrick refers to him in the episode Patrick SmartPants. However, his full name as Robert is not confirmed by Hillenburg. SpongeBob has been called many different names, in a similar style to his own, mainly by Patrick. These include: CowBob RanchPants, DadMom AngryPants, MuscleBob BuffPants, SpongeBob BacksassPants, SpongeBob FancyPants, SquareBob, SpringBoob SquirePin, RobotBob SpongechefPants, BobPants SpongeSquare, SpongeBoob, SpongeBob ScaredyPants, SpongeBob NudiePants, SpongeBob SecretStealerPants, SpongeBob SuperiorPants, SpongeBob LawyerPants, SpongeBoy, me Bob, and SpongeBob NoPants (The Simpsons). Voice/Character SpongeBob's voice is described as a combination of the mayor of Munchkinland from The Wizard of Oz, and Elroy Jetson from The Jetsons. SpongeBob's character was influenced by Jerry Lewis, Pee Wee Herman, and Charlie Chaplin. To create SpongeBob's laugh, Tom Kenny hits his throat with his hand repeatedly while making a high-pitched dolphin-like sound (somewhat sounding like "Ahh"). citation needed] Tom Kenny said he came up with the voice of SpongeBob when he heard an angry dwarf yelling. In the "She Used to Be My Girl" episode of The Simpsons, SpongeBob actually sounds like Krusty, voiced by Dan Castellaneta Other Trivia Creator Stephen Hillenburg, say that he does not have a nickname for SpongeBob, but he sometimes calls him "Sponge". He says that him or any of his crew never call him "Bob", because he does not want people to confuse him with cheese. SpongeBob's welcome mat in front of his house says "Ahoy!". The Spanish theme song on the British versions of the SpongeBob DVD releases is not the same as the version that appears on the American versions of the DVDs. SpongeBob's first words were, "May I take your order?" In some language versions, SpongeGar and SpongeTron's names appear as BobGar and BobTron. The LEGO SpongeBob SquarePants building sets made by LEGO includes a minifigure version of SpongeBob as well as other characters from the show. One of the sets includes a sculpture of SpongeBob. SpongeBob's weakness is applyed in episodes mentioned or showed, but whenever not, his strengh is not unimaginably low. Although SpongeBob has claimed several times he's an invertebrate, when his skeleton has been shown on certain occasions it appears to have a backbone. In the episode "Procrastination", when SpongeBob is shown staring at his paper, the title reads "What not to do at a Spotlight" rather than the correct "What not to do at a Stoplight". In particular season four episodes, SpongeBob appears more green than yellow. SpongeBob also appears more square in season four than in the first three. His voice also appears lighter. The episode "Just One Bite" is a parody of Dr. Seuss's children's book "Green Eggs and Ham". SpongeBob had a pet scallop which he kept in a bird cage in the episode "Help Wanted". In the upcoming episode "A New Leaf", SpongeBob is a great DiskJockey. SpongeBob's "house" is visible in the Adventures of Jimmy Neutron: Boy Genius episode Operation: Jet Fusion. When Jimmy, Carl and Sheen go to the Pacific Ocean, one can see a pineapple. Another Nicktoon reference can be found in the Fairly Oddparents episode Something's Fishy, where the king of Atlantis states that their diets consist of "crabs, starfish, and the occasional undersea squirrel", as a joke to their fellow Nick animators. Some episodes seem to have been edited while shown on air. One example being while Mr. Krabs searches for the Smitty Werben Jegar Man-Jensen grave and tries to remember what SpongeBob had told him while he was leaving. An earlier version had SpongeBob say "You'll never guess what I found in my pants last night", which is now heard as "You'll never guess what I found in my sock last night", because people said it sounded wrong. SpongeBob is ambidextrous; in the episode where he needs to write an essay and distracts himself constantly, he can be seen using his left hand to write. In other episodes he uses his right hand as his dominant. SpongeBob's shoes were tied before he was even born, which explained why he didn't know how to tie them at all. Gary was the only being in Bikini Bottom who knew how to tie shoelaces, since everyone else either didn't have shoelaces, shoes themselves, or even feet.
