Skottie Young has a style that is instantly recognizable, and I spend quite a bit of time each week going through the images on his website. When I found this image of Spongebob Squarepants, I knew in an instant that this was not an image to show my Spongebob loving son.
I thought Spongebob Squarepants died out as something popular years ago, but my son’s non-stop Netflix marathon of the show, and the upcoming It’s a Spongebob Christmas suggest otherwise.
Just saying is all… Of course Spongebob puts that feeling to music and truly makes it the best day ever.
