    Is it weird that the most untreatable thing here for me is that SongeBob existed when anon was in high school?

      This is where I remind you that 4chan has existed for over 21 years. Meaning that a kid born the day it started operation is now old enough to legally drink in the United States.

      1999 grandpa. Anyone born after 1981 will have had the option of SpongeBob. That having been said it wasn’t until the mid to late 2010s that I remember seeing grown ass adults obsessed with, and spouting lines from, a children’s cartoon from 1999. So mostly 90s kids.

          SpongeBob first aired in 1999, so if you were born '81 or later, it was probably on when you were in high school. But yeah if you’re in your mid-late 40s you would have just missed it.

          Hmmm with this we can deduce that SpongeBob was created sometime after 40 year olds went to highschool but before 30 year olds went to highschool 🤔

          And you think it’s weird that people under 40 are on the internet? I’m almost 30 and SpongeBob has been on since I was in daipers

            I mean from what I’ve seen people under 25 are barely “on” the internet, more like floating through the internet, absorbing content by osmosis.
