Someone Drew Realistic Spongebob And It'll Make You Want To Cry

SpongeBob SquarePants is one of those cartoons that everyone has heard of. He came out back in the 90s and has been going strong ever since. But now, an artist has made something that has taken the seemingly adorable sea sponge and turned him into a big ol' nightmare factory.

Nikelodeon

SpongeBob is a sea sponge and his best friend Patrick is a Starfish. They live under the sea with all their other friends and kids have loved them for years now. However, one artist looked at the two characters and thought that learning what these happy go-lucky goofballs would like as humans was a good idea... He was wrong.

Giphy

Micguel Vasquez shared these images that he made and people freaked out (and for good reason). Seeing Spongebob with human-like features and limbs is almost as horrific as the pointy-headed, noseless Patrick that stands menacingly by his side.

Nickelodeon

Fair warning, these images are not for the faint at heart.

This is what SpongeBob and Patrick would look like in a live action version... No one would ever watch this.

They don't look any less horrifying when they are wearing their balloon hats....

They just look even worse up close...

Everything about this is just terrible.

At least we will always have some of the less-scarring life-like versions of our favorite cartoon characters to look at. Like the best Disney villains, or even some of the heroes.

Check out the next page to see some truly amazing life-like depictions of some of your favorite cartoon characters!

Buzz Lightyear

Raoni Nery

Homer Simpson

Professor Farnsworth

Popeye

Stitch

Charlie Brown

Fry

Mr. Burns

Pikachu

Bert

Nacho Diaz

Maybe people should stop trying to make things look realistic... The results are pretty horrifying. Who do you think is the worst?

I think the moral of the story here is we have all lost by seeing these... Share with your friends so they can experience this pain with you.

A Behind-The-Scenes Look At The New Aladdin Is Here And At Least One Of Our Wishes Was Granted

We've been waiting patiently, okay mostly patiently, since Disney announced that Aladdin was being remade. The cartoon remains one of the most iconic movies of all time, and the fact that they were going to try and bring it to life with real humans instead of the animated versions was kind of concerning. We saw the first trailer a while ago, but the only character we actually saw up close was Aladdin himself. We didn't see how the Genie looked, or Jasmine, or any of the other characters. But now, Entertainment Weekly has given us all the first look at

When it ended, we were all a bit sad, but then they brought it back with a new spin-off.  The new show tried to catch that same teen spirit, but
