What it means

A deadpan "take it or leave it" post: whatever you think of Patrick, he is SpongeBob's best friend, so he comes with the show. The format works for any duo where one character annoys part of the fandom, so fans copy the sentence and swap in their own pair (and pronouns) from other shows and games.

Where it started

@Dayscd posted the line on X on November 9, 2026; it had about 353,000 views and 21,500 likes per X's public counts on November 10. X News credited that post with starting the adaptations, and quote posts rewrote it for other pairs, such as Jackie and Shauna from Yellowjackets and Pomni and Jax from The Amazing Digital Circus.
