    Having a strong fixation on a character is so relatable, my friends know me as the Mr. Burns guy. I couldn't help it! My brother was watching The Simpsons one Christmas break and I sat down and watched it, it was fun, but it was mostly passive. That is until I saw Smithers and Burns interacting with each other, and I got that tingly feeling you get when you KNOW a new special interest is starting. AND I WAS ASHAMED. I hid it, and I didn't draw anything till 3 months later. I was mostly shy because a lot of Simpsons fans don't really like seeing Smithers and Burns depicted as together, mainly because of the power dynamic and Burns just not being a great guy to him. But the heart wants what it wants, and I couldn't help but enjoy the few sweet moments they do have together, especially in the early seasons. I kinda liked exploring that fucked up side to their relationship though too. I respect that people might not like them, and that's okay! I just block and move on.
    I expected this fixation to go away eventually, but oh god it did not.
    I got out of it for a little bit, but now I'm back into it at full force.
    I And that's so awesome you ship Manray and The Dirty Bubble! I love them in the show, and after watching this video I definitely want to follow you for more art! I love a lot of Spongebob art and it's one of those fandoms I feel like I'll be in at least once before I die. Anyways, keep doing what you're doing it's awesome!
    Anyways sorry for the ramble, but ye! I love when other people love a character so much they get associated with them.

Like Silver Age Joker and Bronze Age Joker being gay menaces together it's hilarious

    Oh wow! I never knew you put so much love into a character. I honestly just saw your Dirty Bubble art here and there...and I thought, "Cool! Hes fat too. Awesome." (too many humanoid designs r skinny dangit!!!)
    But animatics? ship art? DELIGHTFUL !!!!!!!!!! Your effort in art for them, to show their character and personality. Its pure love I see and feel. Thank you for sharing it. I feel too often people hate on things they don't understand, like the whole "weirdo" trope. Yet go around this world thinking THEY are misunderstood- That misplaced anger for something that- wasn't even made for them...hmm...This strange era of animation/nostalgia giving us expectations for everything to remain static- when that's literally impossible. Shows end, actors die, creators move onto other projects, time marches on. Its natural and ok to change, and even more than ok to end... My nephew gets a whole era of cartoons I'll be too jaded to enjoy or understand, and that's fine. Its a tall order to be a creator in the industry too- but that's a whole other can of worms.
    I love your takes on him. It's only natural for him to be a quirky gay man with his silly foil boyfriend. It's cute. It's sweet. I totally understand that love and admiration for characters haha. I swear, once I get the time, I want to draw fluff art of them...I knew it subconsciously as a kid...that they were more than friends...roommates even

    Hello, I've been following your art on Instagram for a few years and I found you through an animatic. I always loved your designs and wished you got more attention for your work. Your art style has inspired me, and I love how expressive the eyes and mouths are
    I was brainblasted with a severe Wordgirl fixation a while back and was too embarrassed for a long time to express it or draw the art I wanted to draw. Your work inspired me to let myself embrace my interests even if I thought it was silly or immature, and I drew soooo much fan art. I let myself make a whole AU and ended up improving my art skills through it. Whenever I get hopelessly into a specific media now I let myself draw what I love instead of what I think other people want to see and it's saved me from art block so many times. Spongebob has always been close to my heart as a childhood comfort, and seeing it loved and cherished makes me very happy. Thank you for sharing your art with us

Basically this video gave me a huge confidence boost in my own creative endeavors, big big thanks to you and your beautiful bubble man

  • @questionablesock

    I love this video! Funnily enough, earlier this year I stopped being ashamed of my Autistic special interest, Ghostbusters, after moving to University I put up all my merchandise and even my birthday gift from a close friend, a fanart of Egon Spengler, directly above my computer.
    I love seeing other people deeply enthralled over misunderstood or even older characters from media, as my love for Egon Spengler led me to indulging in all Harold Ramis media I could, eventually making me find a throwaway character who is canonically Egon Spengler's twin brother... Elon Spengler of the Wastebusters, a environmental protective group who hunt after & bust big pollution dumps!
    I have my own fan design of him, compared detailed analysis about the two brothers, even somehow I have fanart for my own fan design. He's my silly guy! I draw him all the time, but often don't post about him because he's so niche, but I realise I guess there's someone out there, looking furiously as me for content of this guy who'd adore my passion for this throwaway character who was simply just for the bit.
    I also now deeply love the bubble, I completely forgot he exists. But seeing your passion is genuinely inspiring, no matter how silly the character it focuses on is.

Also this video is so true how I feel for my favs Porky and Elmer. Will yap about them and how they can be used greatly but poorly at the same time!

    I absolutely love that you made this. Always been a big fan of the Dirty Bubble, and enjoyed whenever he would show up. His voice especially, it's friggin' hilarious.
    Everything was so well put together, as someone else who has a hyperfixiation on an obscure SB character too I can relate so hard.
    For me it's Incidental 165, otherwise known as the "Sadly I'm only an Eel' Lady from the Tied Shoes episode.
    And like there's even less stuff of her than DB, but that doesn't stop from making fan art of her since she's so gosh darn cute.
    I made some art where Spongebob makes a dress for her but since she's so long (she a eel) he stitches together two regular dresses so it fits her,
    and she still appreciates it. Also I just have a headcanon name for her which is "Eelina" but yeah!
    I hope this was coherent enough lol, again, awesome video!!!
