History YMMV / SpongeBobSquarePantsS3E9KrabBorgRockAByeBivalve

* AlternativeCharacterInterpretation: While Junior needed to be changed, what probably made him upset the most was realizing he was fed an entirely innocent worm [[MyGodWhatHaveIDone and was grieving for what he did]]. This explains why he cried immediately after ingesting him. [[TearJerker Which makes this scene more depressing]] than [[BlackComedy comedic]].

* FanNickname: Fans usually dub this episode as "The Gay Couple Episode".

* TheWoobie: Mr. Krabs. All because he felt like listening to techno music and [=SpongeBob=] watched a scary movie, his loyal employees scare away his customers, restrain and physically abuse him, and destroy, at minimum, $120 worth of his appliances, one of them actually being a gift. Who knows what would've happened had they [[DespairEventHorizon destroyed his cash register]]?

* MemeticMutation: The scene of Mr. Krabs talking to the disc jockey about how "Electric Zoo" goes ("The one that goes 'beep boo-boo-bop boo-boo-beep!" "No, man, you're thinking of 'beep boo-boo-bop boo-boo-bop'.") has become a popular source for edits, usually making the two of them sing different songs like [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qxDSTCaWVZY "Africa"]] or [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CTJ4P1EmiD4 the Wii Shop Channel theme.]]

** Why does Spongebob call the NAVY instead of the army? Because the NAVY protects ''the sea!''

* StrawmanHasAPoint: Given that [[Recap/SpongebobSquarepantsS2E4DyingforPieImitationKrabs Mr. Krabs had actually been replaced by a robot double at one point]], [=SpongeBob=] might be more ProperlyParanoid than the episode would have the viewer believe.
** It is a rare subversion as [=SpongeBob=] [[NegativeContinuity didn't bring up that event]] and only believed Mr. Krabs was a robot because he was scared from a movie.

-->'''Worm:''' Hello, sea creatures! I bring you greetings from Apple World! [...] WAIT! WE WILL BURY YOU!

** The sequence of [=SpongeBob=] showing Patrick just how many diapers the scallop goes through is frequently used as a stand-in for when a [[TheWarOnStraw strawman is]] InstantlyProvenWrong.

** Junior's diapers clogging up the trash and having to be stored in the fridge? [[NauseaFuel Pretty nauseating.]] The diapers being stored in the couch, the pineapple walls, and even ''on top of Squidward's house''? Hilarious.

** Patrick's first response to finding out that the chirping is coming from a baby scallop? ''[[WouldHurtAChild Step on it.]]'' Would be rather tasteless if [=SpongeBob=] didn't immediately snap him back to his senses.

** "Just call me daddy!"[[labelnote:Explanation]]A popular line screamed by Patrick while he is drawn with a {{Gonk}} body. The scene is often reproduced or quoted by fans thanks to its SelfDeprecation potential.[[/labelnote]]
** "6 o'clock!" "6 o'clock!" "12 o'clock, midnight."[[labelnote:Explanation]]Commonly used when big releases are held back from their intended release time without any given reason.[[/labelnote]]
** "Uhh?!" "...Uh." "Uhhh..."[[labelnote:Explanation]]Used to derail conversation threads that are visibly not going anywhere.[[/labelnote]]

** [[CoconutMeetsCranium "That guy got hit in the head with a coconut!"]][[labelnote:Explanation]]A line commonly edited into clips where people ''do'' get hit with a coconut, usually unrelated to ''[=SpongeBob=]'', since Patrick's reaction serves as a good AudienceSurrogate.[[/labelnote]]
