Correction: Spongebob has also been shown to be none too bright...plus, the show by its nature has little or no continuity between episodes.

SB-129 / Karate Choppers - S1-E14

Corrected entry: In karate choppers, when Spongebob slices the 'barnacle loaf' the piece flies into the air. As it falls past the mustard bottle, the mustard disappears. It's like the barnacle loaf erases the bottle.

Correction: Not true. Watch carefully and you see it falls over and rolls away.

Show generally

Corrected entry: In "Pranks-a-Lot" Spongebob is still wearing his socks and shoes when invisible. Shouldn't they have noticeable stains after they become visible again?

Correction: It's a cartoon. Most things in the Spongebob universe do not follow reality. Things appear, disappear, and change instantly and constantly all the time.

The Bully / Just One Bite - S2-E17

Corrected entry: In "the bully," at the beginning, Spongbob says, "the test pencil should go next to the essay pencil and the essay pencil should be turned side ways" but after Flats had sat down, and Spongebob gets afraid of him, it cuts to Mrs. Puff and when it cuts back to Spongebob, the pencils are in a completely different order.

Correction: Remember, SpongeBob is horribly paranoid on where the pencils should go. He simply changed them again while he was out of shot.

Correction: They simply were not featured in the remainder of the episode. It's not a mistake.

wizard_of_gore

Correction: It's entirely possible that all the stars don't fit in Spongebob's column and he just takes a mental note of it.

Correction: While that may be true, that's one of the running gags throughout Patchy's skits. His peg leg, hook, and patch all change places on his body from left side to right side. In other episodes, the hook or patch or leg do disappear altogether. That's the gag.

Correction: You can't presume to be an authority on Bikini Bottom's system of mail, specifically when mail can or can't be delivered or picked up in this bizarre fictional world. Or if the mailman is simply wearing it off work.

Super Grover

Correction: Throughout the series, Patrick's teeth repeatedly change for jokes. It's just part of the show.

Brad

Correction: Spongebob and Patrick are only shown briefly and a number of issues are not known either. For starters they struggle in Sandy's treedome without water but can survive a good period of time. Additionally Sandy is aware of this so might be giving them water, wet herself while they are draped around her etc. Additionally the conditions of the treedome would vary with the seasons. Being it was the beginning of spring it wouldn't likely be quite as hot meaning they would survive a lot longer than say in Summer.

Lummie

Correction: It was part of the bigger joke. A few moments before Sandy came out they (Spongebob and Patrick) were talking about now being prepared to face the cold harsh winter. All of a sudden it goes from freezing cold to Spring in a split second. Everything including Sandy has changed within those moments.

Lummie

Correction: He does not say he has no money. He just couldn't find it. While Spongebob was looking for the money, he kept hitting the bus driver, who got so irritated, he told Spongebob to forget it.

Brad

Correction: Spongebob has been known to recover from various injuries throughout the show. This is just part of the show's random nature.

Brad

Correction: The coffins were there simply for a joke, and that's why they deliberately disappear.

Brad

Correction: The toilet was there simply for a joke.

Brad

Correction: It was there for that joke and that joke only. This occurs all the time in Spongebob.

Brad

Correction: Mr. Krabs says, "Then we add undersea veggies and cheese". He doesn't forget it.

Brad

Correction: This is done for dramatic effect. It lands with such force and frightens Patrick and Spongebob. The fact the pencil lands more like a missile fits in with the environment of the show, i.e. That Bikini Bottom has gravity despite being underwater. The fact they are able to launch the pencil back up with the same force shows its not a one off as well.

Lummie

Correction: The training video could have been outdated and cheapskate Krabs wouldn't have wanted to make a new one.

Correction: That's because they are not part of his shirt. Look at when he takes off his pants, his shirt always stays with it but his sleeves never seem to be part of it. Chalk it up to another mystery of the show.

The Secret Box / Band Geeks - S2-E14

Audio problem: At the end of "Band Geeks" when everyone is playing "Sweet Victory" at one point Mrs. Puff is shown playing the guitar. When this happens, you can see the others in the background not doing anything, even though their instruments are heard.

Question: There was supposedly one episode that ended with SpongeBob, Patrick, Squidward, and Mr. Krabs all laughing in a boat. The laughing then silences, eventually to a stop. Then SpongeBob, Patrick, and Mr. Krabs walk out of the boat, and Squidward eventually walks out too. Which episode is this?

Answer: I believe this is the Season 6 episode "Spongicus".
