So, earlier today I was getting grief for watching Spongebob and it just made me think of all types of things. First of all, what is wrong with Spongebob? It's not really even a kid's show. If it were then marijuana would be legal, because ninety percent of it's viewers would be sparking up, and it would be easier to legalize it then unintentionally force minors into psychedelics. Second, what am I supposed to be watching? NCIS? Accidentally on Purpose? Yes, I get it, she's pregnant from a one-night stand, and he seems like a good guy, and his friends are silly and non-threatening, just like me amirite????? Maybe I should watch 24, even though I haven't found it amusing in seven hundred seasons or so... Does Jack Bauer do coke? He seems like an eighties guy so probably. But at least 24 is more "grown-up"!?!?!?!??! And how can someone who doesn't watch Nick just assume it's child's play. I mean, watch an episode of iCarly and you're likely to find nearly as many double entendres as Sex and the City with underage girls!!! Dirty-talking jailbait seems pretty grown up to me...
Thirdly, I don't merely watch Spongebob, I live it (yes, it is meant to sound as pretentious as it does). I mean most Nick cartoons are filled with subtext that is clearly not meant for younger viewers, watch a episode of Rugrats after a couple years and you'll see what I mean. Lastly, there is just something inexplicably prophetic about reciting four words and having a car full of people completely understand you...
