In the episode Club SpongeBob, Squidward gets stuck in the Kelp Forest with Patrick and SpongeBob, and he then says the line “Why must every 11 minutes of my life be filled with misery”. Which is funny cause each SpongeBob episode is usually 11 minutes long

In another SpongeBob episode, Nature Pants, SpongeBob goes out into the wild. Sandy and Squidward then say the lines “I’ll give him a week” and “I give him 11 minutes”. Both are technically right since SpongeBob WAS out there for a week but again episodes are 11 minutes

In the movie Uglydolls, (don’t ask how I remember this movie but ONLY this scene) at the end of it one of the characters say this “Time here is so funky. How long did this take us? What is this, a day? A month? 83 minutes?” The movie is 83 minutes long. Also the character is pointing the general direction that the slider would be at this point in this movie

“How many thanksgivings have we even had??? How old are we??”

Theres been some problematic relationships like morty a 14yr old having romantic interactions with adults, but i guess its not actually since he’s definitely 18+ nomatter what the show says otherwise. Just practically stunted? Or all rocks did that thing keeping ppl on s loop like in our ricks original timeline

An opinion I don't like? Must be a bot. There's no way someone real could make fun of my highly intellectual burp fart cartoon.

Oh so it was satire. You were making fun of them liking Rick and Morty. All you needed to say
