I've decided on the most irritating character of any TV show ever.

Patchy the motherfucking Pirate.
This douche bag. Considering that every character on Spongebob Squarepants is annoying enough as it is, the fact that this idiot stands out as being ESPECIALLY annoying says...something.
He's not funny. He's not likable. He's stupid and whiny. He shames pirates everywhere with his pissy antics. I hate him, hate him, hate him. UGH.
So. Can one of YOU folk come up with somebody worse?

1. Seconded
If there's one thing I can't stand, it's the SpongeBob eps with the live-action segments with Patchy in them. Blech.

(Why yes, I am a SpongeBob connoisseur, thank you very much. I credit the 4 YO in the house who is obsessed. I'm just along for the ride.)

4. I must admit that MG Jr. is broadening his horizons lately
He's reached out to embrace Fairly Oddparents (which is quite amusing) and Back at the Barnyard (which is sometimes funny, sometimes downright creepy). Alas, he's also ventured into Disney sitcomland, giggling at the live-action antics of Drake and Josh. Oh noes....

12. "I can't (ptth) under (ptth) stand your (ptth) accent (ptth) (ptht)."

Speaking of balloons--the aftermath of their trip to Gloveworld with SpongeBob getting stuck in Rock Bottom was a classic! Some genuine inspired slapstick there, trying to catch a bus!

3. I watch SpongeBob with my 11 yo sister. We both hate Patchy.
My favorite character is Squidward because in the end, he's the most SANE character. That's what makes him so hopeless and endearing.

13. Weeelll, there's not much to him, is there?
I love how the actress who does Karen revels in her best Joan Cusack voice.

20. I'm partial to this one
Both MG Jr. and I had it as an earworm all day yesterday.

Take a penny and some magic
Even though your life is tragic,
You can throw all your dreams down the well.

Although everyday the pain grows
You ride unicorns on rainbows,
If you throw all your dreams down the well.

When your life's come apart at the scenes
And you've given up all your dreams,
Here is just the means to make those dreams come true.

No more suffering, no more sighin'
No more pain and no more cryin',
When you throw all your dreams down the well

23. My favorite episode is the one where Spongebob tries to help Squidward remodel his house...
so it looks fancier than Squilliam's house for the tv show 'House Fancy.'
Contains my favorite moment ever from Spongebob: "It's a statue of my unibrow...made from gilded doorknobs!"
I have no idea why something so ridiculous cracks me up so much, but it does.

6. My favorite episode of that show was the Peanut and onion sundae.
The Ugly Barnacle." Once there was an ugly barnacle. He was so ugly that everyone died. The end." My daughter doesn't watch that show anymore but when it first came on the air it must must see tv for us.

He also played Nick in the tv miniseries The Stand.

21. THANK you!
I knew I knew that voice from somewhere, and I even checked his name on IMDb, but I didn't see "Coach" listed in his credits. Mystery solved. PHEW!

14. I beg to differ...
The guy in the middle here is the most irritating:



At least Spongebob is a good show... this one sucks all around.

16. Oooooh that show is massively creepy
Who the hell thought those characters (and those makeup jobs) would be appealing to kids? :scared:

I am SO happy MG Jr. doesn't like that one.

But I think it's much, much worse than that.
