Richard Maurer Random Blog 2: SpongeBob Squarepants

SpongeBob has become a global phenomenon exciting and entertaining many children and even many adults. SpongeBob with its simplistic humor masking rather intelligent innuendos allows for many people to transcend their mundane lives after school or after work (because let me tell you, it is on nearly twenty four hours a day), and enter into what could be construed as being almost a religion of laughter. People are able to rise above their daily difficulties and just enjoy the antics of an innocent happy-go-lucky yellow sponge. Having to baby sit the adopted sister every so often, I have come to enjoy this program, as not only a way to keep her settled but also so that I won’t be forced to watch anything similar to Barney. I am also able to better relate with her… or at least I am sure I could if she spoke English.
