>>149521679I saw the part where he goes through the same routine day in and day out as well as that one episode with the background fish going through his routine of his job as a kid and got redpilled on that being the rest of my life after school. No other cartoon like The Simpsons or some other adult show has quite distilled modern life and given a kid time to reevaluate or keep such a potent idea in the back of the head. Yeah the Fight Club/Office Space anons will jump in and portray that mindset as:
>"WHAT?!? A CUSHY AIR-CONDITIONED JOB THAT PAYS ALRIGHT, SAVE ME HOLLYWOOD JEWS, I NEED TO RISK EVERYTHING FOR AN ARTISTIC PASSION OR HOLY CRUSADE!!"Yeah that's equally dumb as well but finding out that shit was important and it was just as important to figure out to not go through a mid-life crisis that leads to an even worse life. So yeah Spongebob leading to somewhere in the middle as the end message for this episode (I vaguely recall) is the right answer.
