AboutWhat does the meme depict?
The 'Mocking SpongeBob' meme features the cartoon character SpongeBob SquarePants in a mocking stance, often used to convey sarcasm or to mock someone's opinion. In the template, SpongeBob is seen with a bizarre, hunched-over posture, his body bent, and his face contorted in a strange, mocking expression. This peculiar depiction is usually accompanied by text in alternating uppercase and lowercase letters, emphasizing the mocking tone.
OriginWho did it first?
The particular image of SpongeBob used in this meme originates from an episode of 'SpongeBob SquarePants' titled 'Little Yellow Book,' which aired on November 25, 2012. In the episode, SpongeBob behaves absurdly upon seeing plaid, inspired by Squidward reading his secret from his diary. The scene can be viewed in a clip from the episode on YouTube. The meme itself was first posted on Twitter (now X) by user @OGBEARD on May 4, 2017, featuring a screenshot from this episode where SpongeBob acquires the chicken-like behavior, used with the caption to humorously depict how one might stare at little kids who keep staring too long.[1]
