About
SpongeBob "I Fucking Love X" refers to a recaption and exploitable format that re-edits an Impact font meme showing SpongeBob SquarePants screaming, "I Fucking Love War I Want To Fucking Kill People For Money And Destroy Cultures And History." Typically, meme creators replace the word "War" and other words in the bottom caption to reference various activities, events or nouns, in general, that they "fucking love," stating the reason for their devotion. Although the meme is believed to have been shared on iFunny first, the earliest known repost comes from late 2021 on Instagram. Additionally, the image of SpongeBob screaming has been used in precursor meme formats like He Don't Miss, and the phrasal template is similar to both I Fucking Love Cocaine and I Love Lean!!!
