Within every episode, sea creatures walk on the ground...drink liquids out of cups...use fire...land heavily after falling from great heights. In fact, just about the only time this trope is averted are the nods to sea creatures not being able to breathe air (when Spongebob dries out after going into Sandy's treehouse), or the reverse with Sandy needing a spacesuit to go out and about. Frequently the cartoon [[LampshadeHanging hangs a lampshade]] on this concept.
