I genuinely remember asking “pourquoi ils ne l’appelent pas SpongeBob aussi?” to whoever made those French dubs. It kinda made me pretty confused.
And yes, I was an avid SpongeBob fan back in the day. Not so much anymore.
Sponge = éponge in french
I think they just bullied you because you’re French.
As they should.Why are you perpetuating such a shite, tired prejudice?
The prejudice that we are likely to mistrust or stereotype people who are different than us / not in our tribe? The one that is biologically hardwired into us and can’t only be beaten with legitimate focused effort? That shite and tired prejudice?
You make the world boring
DOWN WIZ ZE FRENCH!
Actually yes, exactly that one. It’s not the neolithic age anymore.
Holy shit, you solved it! So we tell the children everywhere that it’s not the neolithic age anymore, and they will all rightly override the old parts of their brains and not tease each other for being different!
With any luck, they’ll also realize they won’t need wisdom teeth and decide not to grow those either.
You are correct. Stuff like this can be funny in the correct context like “2westerneuropean4you” or similar. But anglos repeating it on and on is not only toxic and xenophobic, it’s also incredibly unfunny and uninspired.
Remember, don’t buy car brands that start with na F - Ford, Fiat, and French
That must be the European French version. In Québec, the threat of anglicisation is too great to allow him to keep an Anglo-Saxon name like Bob, so it’d be Jean-Bertrand l’Éponge or something.
Hum, I’m French living in France and my son is only allowed to watch shows if they are in English. Is he going to be bullied?
L’Bob Epongère!
