About

What Sin Do You Relish the Most is an exploitable meme format based on a SpongeBob SquarePants meme in which Squidward asks a fish ordering food from the Krusty Krab, "What sin do you relish the most?" and the fish tells him "Vanity," followed by Squidward telling him that his "death will be met with a tidal wave of total indifference." The original meme was posted by Facebook page Hello welcome to purgatory 2 in April 2025. It was reposted across social media numerous times over the following months, inspiring edits that alter the captions. The same scene was popularized as the "Daring Today, Aren't We" meme in 2018.
