SpongeBob owns a house while working in fast food as a fry cook and has rode The Hasselhoff, these are entirely unrealistic standards to hold ourselves to

Don't take me too seriously, I'm overanalyzing a SpongeBob meme

True but some things will always be outside your boundaries regardless if you want to do something or not so sometimes just accepting is ok not bad

i dont think a show starring a talking sponge is a stickler for objective reality

There are lots of fires that can be underwater just not the typical fires that you use.

Now I wonder if we can actually somehow make it so the fire is using the oxygen from the water just how fishes use it with gills.

Yes, as long as you're a cartoon you can do the impossible!

Under water fire is so easy, I'm not sure why you act all surprised

There's actually not much oxygen in the water. That's why fish are moving even when they are sleeping, they have to constantly keep fresh oxygenated water moving over their gills or they would suffocate. Not enough to keep a fire going either.

Oxygen is not the only reason for a flame. Alternatively you could have any oxidizing agent (which most commonly is oxygen but not necessarily only one) that could produce heat and light. Thats all fire is. A reaction that produces heat and light. Another challenge for an underwater fire should be elevating and sustaining the high temperatures. The reaction should produce light and self sustain heat at lower temperatures. For example, IIRC magnesium burns and sustains fire underwater or any conditions because it can react with nitrogen, water and oxygen as well and have flames in each of these environments.

Dear friends,

As we look at this meme, we see three characters with very different attitudes. SpongeBob is clearly enjoying himself, with a slight smile on his face and a spark of excitement in his eyes. Patrick looks a bit more uncertain, but still seems to be having a good time. And then there's Squidward, who looks like he's just going through the motions and isn't really enjoying himself at all.

But what does this photo tell us about ourselves and our attitudes towards life? It shows us that we all have the power to choose how we approach each moment, and that our choices can have a huge impact on our own happiness and the happiness of those around us.

SpongeBob, with his positive attitude and enthusiasm, is able to find joy and excitement in even the most mundane tasks. He's not letting any negative thoughts or doubts hold him back from fully embracing the moment and enjoying himself.

Patrick, while not as confident as SpongeBob, is still willing to give things a try and see where they take him. He's not letting fear or hesitation hold him back from trying new things and having fun.

And then there's Squidward, who seems to be stuck in a negative mindset and isn't able to find enjoyment in anything. He's letting his own negative thoughts and doubts hold him back from truly embracing life and finding happiness.

But the good news is, we all have the power to change our attitudes and approach to life. We can choose to be more like SpongeBob and embrace every moment with enthusiasm and positivity, or we can choose to be more like Squidward and let negative thoughts and doubts hold us back.

So the next time you find yourself in a situation that you're not sure how to approach, think about SpongeBob and his positive attitude. Embrace the moment and find the joy and excitement in it, no matter what it may be. Don't let negative thoughts or doubts hold you back from fully embracing life and finding happiness.

Remember, we all have the power to choose our attitudes and approach to life, so let's make the most of it and find joy and happiness in every moment.

It's totally possible to do this with magnesium. It burns underwater. But it won't look like this and it would burn way too fast.

The edited version of this episode that’s on YouTube is probably one of the funniest things I’ve ever seen. Really making me want to rewatch it rn

Technically just needs phosphorus and an oxidiser source which supplies the oxygen while its underwater water proof matches and underwater welding equipment are testimonials to such things happening in real life…..so the meme does have some merit
