The SpongeBob 'Call That X' Puns meme involves pairing images of SpongeBob SquarePants—often showing a smug, confident, or devious expression—with a setup and a punchline formatted as 'Call that [X].' This format relies on clever, often groan-worthy wordplay or literal interpretations of common phrases. While SpongeBob has been the face of thousands of memes, this specific pun format gained traction as a way to showcase ironic wit and 'dad joke' energy. It highlights the character's versatility in expressing everything from innocent confusion to calculated cleverness, making it a staple for internet users who love a good (or bad) linguistic twist.
