Disrespecting teachers at the ripe age of 57 when the country is dead smack in the middle of the worst literacy crisis in its history and teachers are insanely underpaid (while bragging about being a millionaire) is out-of-touch loser behavior. Everyone is 12!!
Squidward was in his 40s in 1999 meaning he had his prime years during the AIDS crisis. It’s likely he spent a large portion of his life closeted or self-loathing. It makes sense he would resent SpongeBob’s carefree lifestyle. SpongeBob is everything Squidward couldn't be
