* ''Comments:'' Seriously, check their work out. I was NOT expecting to find anything worth reading in the ''[=SpongeBob=] [=SquarePants=]'' section while I casually browsed fanfiction.net, until I came across this guy. You can just imagine all of them happening in the show (pre-Movie, I may add) - even [[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/6686362/1/The-Wrong-Impression The Wrong Impression]], which deals with that whole "[=SpongeBob=] is gay" controversy in a humorous, in-character way, and [[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/6727545/1/GratingBob-ShrillPants GratingBob ShrillPants]], which has Squidward wondering whether or not sponges go through puberty, without any {{Squick}} involved and [=SpongeBob=] accidently BreakingTheFourthWall, which is [[LampshadeHanging lampshaded]] by Squidward at the end. One of them, [[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/9034613/1/Mortal-Man Mortal Man]], is sadder than the usual, because it is a tribute to the late Creator/ErnestBorgnine - dealing with the death of Mermaid Man and [=SpongeBob=]'s reaction to it. If you're a fan of the show, then take a look at their profile. You'll regret nothing.

It's very well-written and surprisingly deep for a [=SpongeBob=] story. Though it does start out referring to said "[[TrollFic first fanfic]]" in the first chapter, one doesn't really have to read it in order to understand what's happening throughout the rest of it; you can pretty much skip it if you want.

* ''Synopsis'': The year is 4014. Humans have been long extinct, but their legacy remains not only on our lands but in our waters. Centuries of chemical pollution has created thousands of mutated races of fish. Landfill run-off has covered the seas and plunged their inhabitants into an eternal darkness.

* ''Comments'': Considered one of the best ''[=SpongeBob=]'' trollfics of all time, this story deserves to be on this list. As another troper mentioned in a review of this fanfic, future TrollFic writers can learn from this one. As a matter of fact, I actually flamed this story back when I didn't know it was a brilliant trollfic. Despite its seemingly horrible plot and offensive author's notes, I have found out after carefully reading the story and piecing together facts about the author, that it is actually a satire as a product of one's dreams and insecurities. I am also recommending the hilarious, in-depth commentary the author has of this fanfic in his official blog. The story itself is not actually meant to be taken literally. Read between the lines and you'll see. I especially thought it was awesome to find out about the true motive of C'ren's half-brother. Not to mention, this fanfic actually inspired the very idea of ''Plankton's Eye View'', another fanfic in this list by the same author. The remake gets better, as well.

* ''Comments'': Personally, I find most Spandy fics to be dull and repetitive. This one, however, was different to me. Instead of immediately jumping to [=SpongeBob=] and Sandy already being in love at the beginning, it actually builds up to their relationship, as well as each other's thoughts. I love this fanfic because of this. It provides some suspense to when [=SpongeBob=] will confess his love, while, again, others take one chapter before they already start kissing. Probably one of the better Spandy fics on the site.

* ''Recommended by'': Tropers/GamesOfTheVideo
* ''Status'': Dormant
* ''Synopsis'': That's right, someone is actually writing a full-length JustForFun/TheUglyBarnacle! We're going to learn who the titular barnacle is, how he came to be so ugly, and how his disgusting visage heralded the apocalypse and the death of every living creature in the world. WordOfGod says [[http://betweenminds3.blogspot.com/2012/01/ugly-barnacle.html here]] that "the barnacle's ugliness [will cause] nothing less than the [[ApocalypseHow Metaphysical Annihilation of the Universe.]]"
* ''Tags'': VERY likely to become a DarkFic, due to its ForegoneConclusion. We ''know'' everyone is going to die; really the only reason we're reading the story is to find out ''how.''
* ''Comments'': This troper started reading it to expect some dramatic [[{{Narm}} narmtastic]] tragic account of the Ugly Barnacle, but was pleasantly surprised with the light, satirical tone of the piece. It really [[AffectionateParody affectionately parodies]] both the source material, and common literary tropes of fairy tales and just the genre of fantasy in general. This has the potential to be a very, very funny and clever satire of... the universe. [[ForegoneConclusion Before it... you know...]] Is completely and utterly destroyed by the [[EldritchAbomination Barnacle]].

''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g3lo90ElO9Q The Verbose Barnacle]]'' by [[https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC-nmFH7Qwy9OTqI8SvGiGGA WoofMichelle]]
* ''Recommended by'': abcdef-no
* ''Status'': Dormant
* ''Synopsis'': This story technically is a longer Ugly Barnacle, only it retells the original story in a verbose fashion. The barnacle is even given a title as long as the original story was (A Marine Crusteacean of the Subclass Cirripedia Which, To Its Own Misfortune, Was Quite Repugnant). Now, this story changes the plot a little bit, with the barnacle only killing those who see its face. Other than that, most of the plot is the same, the barnacle is so ugly that people die, although in an "agonizingly lengthful and tormenting" way.
* ''Comments'': This story made me laugh for weeks. It makes the original Ugly Barnacle, one of the funniest jokes in [=SpongeBob=], look lame and stupid. The great thing is, there is actually a direction to the story, giving fans less vague ways to imagine the story's future (what happened to the people who survived).
