He's fucking dying guys

Shit, man. That is a genuinely terrible way to go out.

...

Poor guy. That is really sad.

There's already a thread for this.

Though it's got a lot more condescension.s

Oh. That's a really messy thread. Let's have that one die and keep this one.

So he was doomed from the start? Fucking genetic time bombs.

F

I don't think ALS is genetic.

I feel nothing. For the greedy bastard.

He won't be feeling anything pretty soon either

Look up Lou Gehrig's disease. In cases where the victim is around 50 years old it's more than likely inherited.

I did look it up. About 5-10% of cases are inherited. It's not generally hereditary.

Jesus fucking Christ.
Guess the show was really nerve wracking

How sad. I hope this stops the anti spongebob circlejerk (that normalfags like) for a while. I guess this explains why he came back to work on the show.

Damn.

Good riddance.

Why are people hating on him?

Cause he made a popular show what else

Don't forget it is a show he left after a while.

He's not just dying, he's dying while slowly being a fucking vegetable. And fuck no, just end it, for Christ's sake, just end Spongebob in a high note will all the energy you have left.

Here's hoping he makes something really, really good before he dies

F
etc…
This is one of the worst possible death
Seeing yourself dying, becoming literally even more useless everyday.

So now he's becoming one with the sponge

Meme magic truly is real

ARE YA READY KIDS?

OOOOOO

WHO DEAD IN A COFFIN DEEP UNDER THE SEA

How will the series end?

I'd want to see them have the series finale air on the week of Stephen's death, with the episode starting with one of those "in memory of…" clips

Because cartoons can't be waifus, of course!
(to ugly)

...

kill yourself

It really seems like Nickolodeon has been trying to make Spongebob their Bugs Bunny.

I wanted Spongebob to finally end but not like this, not like this

What did he even do in that time period?


>Spongebob stars in propaganda war cartoons like promoting wars bonds, rationing food, loose lips might sink ships and antics where he fights the real life leader of the "enemy" forces.
>Actual Marine corps grant Spongebob the title of honorary Marine Master Sergeant Hey, it worked for Bugs Bunny

That would be interesting to see but I don't want to see WW3 though.

Meanwhile Matt Groening is having a bath with his shekels and doubloons.
(At first I thought he got diagnosed with alzheimer 's)

Is that from a game or did someone actually do a 3d rendering of DJ Khaled?

I would play the FUCK out of a DJ Khaled game like 50 Cent had.
Doin' drivebys on jetskis, midair shootouts diving out of cargo planes, bank heists on quadbikes, and Parappa-style minigames…

oh shit spongebob is old enough to do porn

He deserves it for letting the show go to shit, tbh

The best case scenario means he may have a few good years left. ALS tends to affect women a bit faster than men and there's no one set timeline.

Even then, Stephen Hawking got it super young and he's somehow still alive despite it being medically impossible for him to be.

STE-PHEN HILLEN-BURG!

Stephen Hawking has a rare form which, thus far, has just slowly paralysed him

Wasn't that Nickelodeon's fault?

This. I think it was known as MLS or AMS something, but it's arguably worse than ALS because you watch yourself deteriorate, rather than slowly losing your mind.

Yes, but anons here seem to hate him for "letting" it go to the hands of Nickelodeon.

Whatever you have to say about the show, he's responsible for all the good to come out of it as well. This is terrible news, and I wish the best to him and his family.

This

It's just a simply photography.

Decaying and mossy and porous is he!
