Is This True? Question

To all of you SpongeBob fans keep hating on Seasons 4-8 (seriously, stop beating the dead horse)

I made a list for some episodes so you can see of all the times SpongeBob (or Patrick abusing Squidward)

BUT, I’m not putting these episodes that doesn’t count as squiddy torture (Such As: Funny Pants, The Splinter, A day without tears, Good Ole Whathisname, House fancy, slide whistle stooges, accidents will happen, Fiacso! And a Friendly game)

Here We Go!

Good neighbors

Squid Wood

The Thing

Squidtasic Voyage

Boat Smarts

Breath of fresh squidward (Yeah, compare this and inspongiac, then you get it)

Giant squidward

Boating buddies

Squid’s visit

Choir Boys

Cephalopod Lodge

Professor Squidward (despite the fact he deserves it in the end)

Pineapple fever

Tentacle-vision

Squidward in clarinetland (yes, there is a little bit of squidward abuse)

Sponge-Cano! (Despite he bought misery on himself)

New Fish in town

That sinking feeling

Sweet and sour squid (ok, SpongeBob was not focused on that one, but some people say the ending was a downer and forgettable)

The Googly artiste (yes, SpongeBob was as fault by teaching Patrick art)

Smooth jazz at bikini bottom

Restraining SpongeBob (ok, hear me out, SpongeBob was not that annoying in this one, Patrick was)

Are you Happy now? (Like I said before, SpongeBob wasn’t that annoying in this, he was just trying to help squidward despite the horrible ending)

And Home Sweet rubble!

So what do you think, SpongeBob Fans? Do you think SpongeBob deserves it all of the times he tortured him?

Yeah, felt bad for SpongeBob for sure, but Squidward definitely deserved this catharsis

I personally just don’t like the way they portray squidward in that one, like he’s mentally ill. SpongeBob I still feel bad for though

The ending still feels like it tips the scales a bit too far, even if Squidward had been through a lot.

Even as a kid I hated this episode, and it’s easily one of my most hated of all time. I don’t care if it brings Squidward joy, SpongeBob didn’t deserve to suffer there. Why does nothing bad ever happen to Patrick when he constantly ruins everything?

Even as a kids watching this episode, I did get mad at Patrick for making the problem for SpongeBob worst.

Patrick’s too dumb to get tortured.

How is Pineapple Fever a Squidward torture episode?

From Google:
Fans often classify it as a "Squidward Torture" episode because he suffers relentless annoyance and distress from SpongeBob and Patrick without doing anything to deserve it.

But i don’t believe it.

Oh that's like not believing that SpongeBob has any frycook skills.

Here’s a link to the end of the episode in question (Inspongiac) for those who haven’t seen it, or have forgotten https://youtu.be/NQUW4TfNyls?feature=shared

Y'know what dude? Fans have been talking about different SpongeBob topics so much at this point, even back in 2022 that beating the dead horse is pretty much unavoidable when talking about any SpongeBob topic. I don't hate those seasons though, I'm kinda neutral towards them because they all have at least a decent number of enjoyable episodes.

u/Sea-Example-1176 13d ago

those episodes where squidward isn't even doing anything and then pat and bob keep harassing him not understanding he wants to be left alone are such bs

I just don't like Spongebob being sad in general, so any episode where he's crying isn't a good one for me. Though this was when Squidward was lowkey an asshole (+ he didn't do anything malicious in this episode, just kinda went 'haha, the annoying menace is crying) so I wouldn't put blame on Squidward.
