Proposal
The reason I think we should do this is because that's the day Opposite Day was released and backwards is a type of opposite. SpongeTron D (W•C•E) I love this signature
Concerns
Created concern: The inescapable folly of censorship...
How tragic, how poetically absurd, that we should find ourselves engaged in such a ludicrous battle—not over matters of consequence, not over ethical dilemmas of cosmic proportion, but over the proposed proscription of the humble word "sponge." Let us, for a moment, indulge in an exploration of what this entails. To strip a SpongeBob SquarePants wiki of the word "sponge" is not merely an act of lexical expurgation; it is an assault upon the very bedrock of its raison d’être. It is a proposal so paradoxically self-annihilating, so violently antithetical to the very essence of the subject matter at hand, that it staggers the mind with its sheer audacity. It is akin to forbidding the word "gravity" in a Newtonian physics forum, to outlawing the utterance of "Shakespeare" in a Shakespearean literary society, or to erasing the very name of the sun from an astrophysical treatise whilst continuing to discuss its celestial grandeur. Indeed, one must ask: what great and terrible crime has "sponge" committed to warrant its exile from these digital shores? Has it, through some arcane sorcery, transformed into an incantation of doom, a word so cursed that its mere presence threatens the very structural integrity of this venerable repository of knowledge? Has the tide of linguistic evolution turned so cruelly against it that its mere articulation is now deemed unutterable? Or—more likely—is this an exercise in sheer folly, the kind of arbitrary rule-making that serves no purpose beyond the self-satisfaction of those who revel in their own draconian whims? What do you mean I used ChatGPT to write this? To ban "sponge" on a SpongeBob SquarePants wiki is to excise a fundamental pillar of its identity, to demand the self-mutilation of its very linguistic fabric. Without "sponge," what remains? Shall we stumble about with desperate euphemisms, forced to refer to our beloved protagonist as "The Porous One" or "The Absorbent Being"? Shall we render sentences into tangled labyrinths of circumlocution, so that simple declarations—"SpongeBob is a sponge"—become unrecognizable abominations of linguistic gymnastics? This is not merely the erosion of a word; it is the erosion of clarity, of coherence, of meaning itself. And should we acquiesce to this madness, where does it end? If "sponge" falls beneath the axe of censorship, what shall be next? "Bob"? "Square"? "Pants"? Shall we, in our zeal to obliterate words, unravel language itself, reducing our discourse to a series of disjointed grunts and gesticulations, forsaking the very medium through which knowledge is transmitted and preserved? No, I say. A thousand times, no! We must resist this descent into farce with every fiber of our intellectual being. To strike "sponge" from our lexicon is to strike a blow against reason itself, and in that battle, there can be no compromise. Let the word stand, proud and unassailable, as it always has. Let SpongeBob be what he is—a sponge. And let those who seek to erase truth from existence find themselves lost in the abyss of their own absurdity.
History will remember this moment. Let us not be found wanting. AndromedaMapping1 (W•C•A•Sign) File:Am1pfp8 circle.png 7:38, 8 Feb 2025 (UTC)
