The Mr. Krabs Money meme stems from the long-running Nickelodeon series SpongeBob SquarePants, specifically highlighting the character Eugene H. Krabs' extreme obsession with wealth. Most variations feature him clutching dollar bills with a look of pure joy or the legendary 'I like money' quote from The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie. It serves as the internet's go-to reaction for corporate greed, payday excitement, or any situation involving questionable financial gain. Over the years, it has evolved into various formats, including the 'Blurry Mr. Krabs' variant, but the core theme of unapologetic capitalism remains a staple of internet culture.
