Hot Take: Patrick is and always has been a HORRIBLE FRIEND.

First I’d like to start by saying Patrick has always been my fav character so it’s not like I’m just sh*tting on him; I sincerely think he’s a horrible friend to SpongeBob and I feel like fans tend to see him through a rose colored lens sometimes because they love him so much that they’re literally unable to see how bad of a friend he’s always been. Since season 1, he never really had SpongeBob’s back. He beat SpongeBob with his rock thinking he was a spider, and DOES EVERYONE FORGET ABOUT THE “I’m With Stupid” EPISODE??? Then there’s the lost identity episode, and Rock Bottom, going on the bus without him and leaving him. Patrick will always be my fav, but like at some point we have to acknowledge that he’s never supported SpongeBob the way he should as his best friend. Thank you for coming to my ted talk.
