Stephen Hillenburg was an admirable scientist and Spongebob Squarepants is a deeply sci-fi comedy that, unfortunately, people lacking scientific disposition fail to grasp. the premise is that after all the nuclear testing in the Bikini Atoll, the creatures living in the bottom of the sea were mutated and hillarity ensues when important social matters of human nature are dealt with. Spongebob Squarepants is a rare and priceless gift to humanity and the part of humanity which is more like man and less like monkey, certainly feels indebted towards the great scientist for his work.
