He also got SpongeBob off cocaine

OK. I think Spongebob's OK, but I don't think I'll ever be at a point in my life where I have enough disposable income to feel like commissioning a painting of him in *any* style.

Shabby Road.

The F.A.B. Four - Fake Ass Beatles.

Money for nothing, chicks for free.

Spongebob is this generation's Bugs Bunny.

I'm a fan of both but i don't see that.
Bugs = clever and cool.
SpongeBob = naive, optimistic and kindhearted.

What is the English equivalent of "trailer trash"?

I'm seriously asking here. Do they have trailer parks over there?

Oasis?? Is that a band or something?

Epossumondas: Spongebob is this generation's Bugs Bunny.

That has got to be the saddest thing I have ever read.

Now that's classy...

That does it. There's no such thing as fine art anymore. It's been ruined by the talentless.

Big Bird = also naive, optimistic and kindhearted.
This would be a slightly better comparison IMHO.

Squidward: You mean you've never heard the story of the (thinks) "Hash-Slinging Slasher?"
Spongebob: The Slash-Bringing Hasher?
Squidward: The Hash-Slinging Slasher!
Spongebob: The Sash-Ringing, the Trash-Singing Mash-Flinging, The Flash-Stringing, Ringing, The Cr-Crash-Dinging, daa!
Squidward: Yes, the Hash-Slinging Slasher. But, most people just call him The Ha (breaks into scream) because that's all the have time to say before he GETS THEM.

Big Beef Burrito: What is the English equivalent of "trailer trash"?

They're called "chavs" and they don't live in trailers. They live in public housing. The gypsies and "travelers" live in trailers, but they call them "caravans".

That said, I'd like to add that Liam Gallagher's decision to commission a Spongebob painting dovetails nicely with the rest of his aesthetic sensibilities.

//Hack is as hack does.

Spongebob is the lead singer of Oasis, right?

Spongebob is awesome, as is Oasis.

To clarify: Not that the two characters are similar, but the universal appeal to all kids, all ages. Tomorrow's adults will make pop culture references to Spongebob scenes and characters like we do the old Loony Tunes cartoons.
