superbowl casually lied so they could get extra views from MOURNERS. they knew damn well what people wanted, a tribute to an amazing man who died recently, then said nudge nudge hint hint something might happen knowing DAMN well what people would expect. I know I only watched because I wanted to see the tribute, because I assumed that anyone with half an ounce of empathy would not lead on over a million mourners who signed petitions and made it explicitly clear that they wanted to see sweet victory performed and then give them a 2 second spongebob clip introducing an entirely unrelated performance in an extremely self-congratulatory fashion instead of the respectful tribute everyone begged for and expected
fuck everyone involved
I want to make this perfectly clear: these petitions were not because everyone suddenly thought spongebob would be cool for a halftime show. these petitions were because stephen hillenburg, an incredibly beloved man, died a painful death from ALS and millions of people wanted to honor his memory. to honor his work. to honor him. petitions to have sweet victory performed at the halftime show were written in grief and hope that he could be respected, honored, and remembered. then the superbowl advertised they were going to have spongebob in the halftime show, knowing that the MOURNERS were desperate to see stephen get recognition for being wonderful. the organizers and advertisers knew EXACTLY what we wanted and expected, and knew damn well they were never going to fulfill those expectations. you know what they did instead? they used a tiny clip of spongebob to introduce their own shitty show
I watched to see sweet victory. because they advertised sweet victory and stephen was an amazing person. so many other people who love and miss stephen tuned in just to see it too. the people who do the halftime show manipulated the love and grief of millions of people to trick them into watching the organizers just pat themselves on the back for doing jack shit while managing to trick grievers into watching their shit show for easy extra $$$
Shoutout to the Dallas Stars, who at their hockey game last night did in fact play the entire clip of Sweet Victory. They also took the time to edit the color of the marching band uniforms in the video to match their hockey jersey. It was great!
sandy cheeks would’ve voted trump that evil southern rat ass bitch
Sandy Cheeks is a pro-science feminist who lives in a foreign land that she respects the customs of and she would be offended you would even accuse her of this.
mr krabs would’ve voted trump
Mr Krabs absolutely would’ve voted trump.
Mr. Krabs would not have voted for Trump because Mr. Krabs earned most of his money through hard work (and being a cheapskate and get rich quick schemes but those still require some effort on his part) whereas Trump inherited most of his wealth and thinks a million dollars is a small loan, Mr. Krabs would consider him an insult to richness for which he could not stand.
Plankton would’ve voted Trump.
You think he needs competition taking over the world? Face it folks. No one on Spongebob would vote for Trump. None of them. Face it.
Bubble Bass
Shit. Dammit. Goddammit. Shit. God. Dammit. Fuck.
Squilliam Fancyson would vote for Trump
okay im just gonna put down my things here
– Plankton would not want competition, he would not vote for him
– Krabs would never respect a guy who bankrupted himself four times, he would not vote for him
– Sandy Cheeks is an independent scientist receiving grants from academies to further her research in foreign lands, so she would never vote for him. Also, she would never respect a man who made such sexist comments since Spongebob did that once (to motivate his pet snail like a traditional sports coach) and she kicked HIS ass over a fucking field.
– Patrick can’t spell so he couldn’t vote for anyone
– Spongebob is too nice and would never vote for anyone who used such inappropriate “bad words” during their campaign.
– Squidward is too lazy and defeatist to even vote because he thinks there would be no point.
– Pearl is a teenager and therefore too young to vote
– Larry Lobster is a trained medic and custodian and would not vote for anyone that crippled such services.
– Bubble Bass WOULD vote for him because Bass is an arrogant self-entitled prick who enjoys deceiving others just for the sake of humiliating them, and would approve of such a person.
– Squilliam Fancyson would also vote for him because he’s a wealthy narcissist.
– Mrs. Puff has a criminal record and is therefore not eligible to vote.
Squidward is a full time minimum wage retail worker who is pro-union and anti-capitalist, and also a firm supporter and member of the fine arts community. He would actively vote against Trump, defeatist or not, and you can’t convince me otherwise.
