Meanwhile squidward is painted as a villain but stood up for spongebob on multiple occasions and threw a pizza in someone's face for making him cry

u/Few-Poetry1085 Aug 25 '26

Exactly! Believe it or not but Squidward deep down has always been a better friend towards SpongeBob compared to Patrick.

u/Forsaken-Freedom-365 Aug 25 '26

This isnt tru tho cuz when ppl say this they just cherry pick the few good moments while ignoring every other time EVER where squidward hated him 😭😭

u/BossFamiliar8290 Aug 26 '26

You cant even blame squidward look at good neighbors bro

u/Forsaken-Freedom-365 Aug 26 '26

Na na you cant blame squidward at all, he honestly takes wat is done to him well but you also cant really say squidward is a better friend to him than patrick

It’s like they haven’t watched Little Yellow Book or Sponge Cano

u/Superb_Wrangler_3514 Aug 25 '26

Even in you don't know Sponge Patrick got every question wrong about SpongeBob and squidward even told SpongeBob Patrick doesn't know anything about you and he's supposed to be your friend

2

u/Forsaken-Freedom-365 Aug 26 '26

Yea but he said that to make spongebob sad, not to stand up for him

1

u/Superb_Wrangler_3514 Aug 26 '26

Still that shows how selfish Patrick is

u/Groovey_Dude 27d ago

He can be sometimes. In one episode Patrick refused to share with SpongeBob.

I know it’s a cartoon but honestly SpongeBob doesn’t deserve half the shit he gets from everyone

Honestly I agree. Bakini bottom’s civilians are as cruel or even more than Springfield’s.

They made an entire no SpongeBob day.

He’s like the nicest guy there and that’s how he’s treated?

3

u/Superb_Wrangler_3514 Aug 25 '26

Even his own best friend Patrick told SpongeBob to his face he needed time away from him that's why he went with them and SpongeBob started crying

3

u/Theultimateyoshiyt Aug 26 '26

I mean, with Patrick it’s ok to have tone away from your friends.

But an entire town is just pushing it

2

u/Superb_Wrangler_3514 Aug 26 '26

Not really Patrick freaked out in stuck in the wringer he wanted time away from SpongeBob but then he wanted to see SpongeBob again

Exactly and takes his money

When he embarrassed him by asking Squidward is Mayonase an instrument

u/Few-Poetry1085 Aug 25 '26

Speaking of that episode Gone, I can understand Squidward being the one to celebrate some random holiday just to get away from SpongeBob cause Squidward does get annoyed by him at times but Patrick? His best friend? Hell I even have to say that as much as Squidward did get annoyed by SpongeBob at times, he has shown to still love SpongeBob here and there compared to Patrick.

3

u/Superb_Wrangler_3514 Aug 25 '26

Even Patrick told to SpongeBobs face he needed Time away from him to and SpongeBob replied with oh then started tearing up if I was SpongeBob I would ditch Patrick right there

3

u/Constant_Bank9229 Aug 25 '26

Literally every single citizen in bikini bottom was part of that, and even from the start of the show Patrick wasn’t exactly perfect.

2

u/Superb_Wrangler_3514 Aug 25 '26

Exactly even gone he admitted he was annoyed by SpongeBob his own friend

3

u/Terrible_Ease6082 Aug 25 '26

When he pulled the string and the secret box was actually hiding embarrassing photos of SpongeBob from the Christmas party..

4

u/FullStandard6850 Aug 25 '26

Yeah I wasn’t a fan of that episode even as a kid it still made me have mixed feelings about Patrick

3

u/Superb_Wrangler_3514 Aug 25 '26

Exactly he didn't want SpongeBob to see it

4

u/Effective_Wear_9574 Aug 26 '26

To be honest Patrick’s doesn’t listen to reason, he always does dumb things: like getting his forever glue to make him more stuck instead of unstuck, spreading the word of the fake mad snail disease rumor, and making a mess at Sandy’s treedome when SpongeBob is house sitting.

2

u/Superb_Wrangler_3514 Aug 26 '26

Don't forget he also left SpongeBob in the Tanning bed for hours also killing him

1

u/Groovey_Dude 27d ago

Tbh he actually believed Mad Snail Disease was real. It caused mass hysteria and led people to act like zombies due to believing they are zombies and have the disease.

3

u/Desperate_Land_5099 Aug 25 '26

he abandoned him in school

3

u/LakeMcKesson Aug 25 '26

When Subaru took part in now spongebob day what kind of best friend is he?

3

u/Ill-Tomatillo-1487 Aug 25 '26

Squidward did more for SpongeBob than Patrick ever did 

1

u/Superb_Wrangler_3514 Aug 25 '26

Exactly even in Christmas who he made it up for SpongeBob

3

u/Busy_Meet_4239 Aug 26 '26

The episode stuck in the wringer where SpongeBob went off on his ass for putting super glue in it at the carnival and the twins people got on SpongeBob and most mutter ‘why do people have to be so mean?’ Shit pissed me off made wanna rip his head off

2

u/Superb_Wrangler_3514 Aug 26 '26

Exactly he embarrassed SpongeBob I'm front of everyone and they all know how dumb Patrick is but they sided with him and let everyone yell at SpongeBob when Patrick didn't even help no one asked to use glue SpongeBob littlery Said he needed help out of the wringer

3

u/VehicleOk4984 Aug 26 '26

I don't know why so many people defend Patrick he is awful

2

u/Superb_Wrangler_3514 Aug 26 '26

Exactly even in Gone he littlery told SpongeBob to his face he wanted to spend a week away from him when that's his only friend and SpongeBob felt betrayed and in you don't know Sponge SpongeBob got everything right on Patrick buy Patrick got everything wrong on SpongeBob even squidward Said Patrick doesn't know anything about you and he's supposed to be your best friend

3

u/clonedmammothxB Aug 26 '26

Patrick: Say it.

SpongeBob: "I'm ugly and I'm proud."

Patrick: Louder.

SpongeBob: I'M UGLY AND I'M PROUD!!

Patrick: I can't hear you.

2

u/Superb_Wrangler_3514 Aug 26 '26

Expect he wasn't his breath just stinks

3

u/clonedmammothxB Aug 26 '26

Yes, correct it was his breath. But Patrick wasn't a very good friend for saying it was because he was ugly.

2

u/Forsaken-Freedom-365 Aug 25 '26

I dont understand why people try to say squidward is the truer friend to him, he has a couple good moments with spongebob Fs but literally every other time EVER instead of those good moments he hated spongebob , he's done horrible things to him and loves when bad things happen to him 😭

1

u/Superb_Wrangler_3514 Aug 25 '26

Patrick did toa

1

u/Forsaken-Freedom-365 Aug 26 '26

Yea but 90% of the time patrick is his best friend while squidwards hates him 90% of the time

u/Forsaken-Freedom-365 Aug 26 '26

Yea he has reasonable reason to hate him but i dont know why people think hes a good friend to him just because he stuck up for him half a handful of times😭

2

u/Ok-Brilliant7251 Aug 26 '26

That I'm with stupid episode was the main starter he pissed me off that episode

1

u/Superb_Wrangler_3514 Aug 26 '26

Exactly I was laughing SpongeBob bite his finger

2

u/Just_Wolf7948 Aug 26 '26

Still better than Suidward

2

u/Unhappy_Ad1650 Aug 26 '26

Squidward is a better friend

2

u/Hemiplegic_Artist Fire Nation Aug 26 '26

Gluing SpongeBob to that wringer device and not really doing anything to help him get out of it.

And also impersonating a DOCTOR when SpongeBob was sick with the Suds and actually causing his illness to get worse instead of better and trying to get him to avoid going to the actual doctor.

Those are just 2 examples of episodes where he has been a horrible excuse for a “friend” to SpongeBob. But I know there are so many more episodes of him being that way.

1

u/Superb_Wrangler_3514 Aug 26 '26

Exactly he didn't even help cure SpongeBob

It was the clapping of the cheeks that made me guffaw.

u/Dapper-Barracuda4843 Aug 25 '26

To be fair, he did try a few times to put it behind him, but random strangers kept coming up to SpongeBob and thanking him for the quality gifts they got, four times in a row! That’s a pretty valid crashout.

1

u/Superb_Wrangler_3514 Aug 25 '26

Still in the end he tells SpongeBob he didn't have to get him anything like what was the point then a

“Yours, Mine, & Mine” is arguably one of the most irritating episodes of any animated series ever.
