The internet seems to really be captivated with Spongebob memes. The "Savage Patrick" trend has quickly come and gone but was instantaneously replaced with a brand new internet obsession that rose to popularity on social media. You've seen it everywhere: the latest savage Spongebob meme that lets us praise the best and immediately shade its most basic version.
Where exactly did this meme come from?
If you grew up watching Nickelodeon's most famous high-pitched giggling sponge, you're surely familiar with the Krusty Krab versus Chum Bucket rivalry. Spongebob is the world's most dedicated employee at Bikini Bottom's favorite fast food joint, the Krusty Krab. Plankton, owner of the Chum Bucket, is constantly trying to steal the super secret Krabby Patty recipe. The Chum Bucket has a reputation for being inedible to the point of repulsion. The Krusty Krab (on the left) versus the Chum Bucket (right) illustrates the best versus the nastiest.
