One day, SpongeBob decided that being a sponge was too boring and wished to become human. Miraculously, his wish came true, and he found himself in the human world! But that’s when the problems began.
SpongeBob got a job at a diner, trying to do what he does best—making burgers. However, he forgot that humans don’t have sponge superpowers. When he spilled some oil, he tried to soak it up by lying flat on the floor, but it didn’t work. Instead of drying everything, he slipped and slid across the kitchen, knocking over pots and pans.
Outside, things got even worse. As usual, he wanted to greet everyone, but when he waved, he accidentally smacked someone in the face. “Oops! Sorry!” he squeaked, and then he realized that humans don’t have endless energy like he used to in Bikini Bottom. After just a few minutes of walking, he was completely exhausted and collapsed on a bench, panting heavily.
“Being human isn’t all that great,” SpongeBob thought. At that moment, he made a new wish—to become a sponge again. Instantly, he returned to his usual square self, soaking wet but happy. “Ah, it’s good to be a sponge again!” he exclaimed, heading back to his favorite job at the Krusty Krab.
The moral of the story: Sometimes it’s best to stay true to yourself, especially if you’re a square sponge!
