Is this Patrick? No, this is Venice!
A Twitter user named Tron Madden has discovered that a satellite map of Venice in Italy remarkably resembles the 'thirsty Patrick Star' scene and meme from and inspired by Nickelodeon's beloved animated series,
SpongeBob SquarePants!
Madden took to his Twitter page to share the image of the map of Venice alongside Patrick Star's image and captioned the post saying that the map had a striking resemblance to SpongeBob’s best buddy who lives under a rock in the underwater city of Bikini Bottom.
Instantly, Twitter users poured in an assortment of reactions stating that “there's a
SpongeBob reference for every life moment.” With more than 123 thousand retweets and nearly 690 thousand likes, the Tweet launched a series of discussions as some said that “this isn’t a coincidence, king of Italy loved that episode so much so he designed Venice after that image,” while others were more curious about how had Madden managed to notice such a strange detail on the map.
“The real question is how on earth did you come to that conclusion?”, a commenter enquired. Further, people posted all sorts of hilarious reactions to Madden’s “funny” observation as one asked, “Why does Patrick need water if he lives in the ocean?” and another added, “Because he is in Sandy's dome”.
The commenter is referring to Sandy Cheeks, a diving suit-wearing squirrel who lives in a treedome in Bikini Bottom. In the episode "
Tea at the Treedome", after SpongeBob and Patrick enter Sandy's waterless treedome, they quickly dehydrate, and Sandy helps revive the pair by creating aqua helmets. “Life imitates art,” wrote a user relating the interpretation of the map with the artistic vision of Madden, calling the discovery just a perspective.
