A recurring joke in the series reveals that SpongeBob is incapable of getting his driving license. He has attended [[Mrs. Puff]]'s boating school for many years, and each year, manages to fail his driving test.

Appearance and characteristics
SpongeBob is a porous, yellow sponge with square pants, hence the name SpongeBob SquarePants. He has large blue eyes, each with three eyelashes, and two prominent front teeth. He also has three freckles on each cheek and dimples. He wears a white shirt with a red tie, brown trousers held up by a black belt and black shoes. He usuallySpongeBob is a sea sponge, like his parents, but he is drawn to resemble a kitchen sponge. It is said that this because Hillenburg found this design to be more amusing. Although in several episodes he is shown to have a spine, he is extremely flexible and can bend in all directions. He can also absorb large amounts of water due to his porous body.
Spongebob was based on Hillenburg's first sponge kid, Bob the Sponge, who was the main star of the comic The Intertidal Zone.
Character info
SpongeBob is cheerful, good-natured and always happy to help anyone. He is kind to everyone and is determined to be friends with those around him. When it comes to doing a job SpongeBob completes it to the best of his ability, andbe July 14,1986.
SpongeBob lives in a Pineapple House in the town of Bikini Bottom, with his pet snail Gary. Next-door to him is Squidward Tentacles, who lives in an Easter Island head house. SpongeBob considers him very close friend, although this isn't mutual. Next-door to Squidward is Patrick Star, SpongeBobs very best friend, who lives under a rock.
SpongeBob and Patrick have many hobbies, which will be told later. are both Goofy Goobers, and spend a lot of time at Goofy Goober's Ice Cream Party Boat. SpongeBob and Patrick are both very immature adults, as they enjoy activities that are generally favoured by children. This means that Squidward shows a strong dislike for both of them, as he considers himself more sophisticated and mature. SpongeBob sees Squidward as one of his closest friends, despite the fact that Squidward obviously does not share the feeling. This means that Squidward usually bears the brunt of SpongeBob's characteristics and actions, and is particularly annoyed by SpongeBob's laugh. Another very close friend of SpongeBob's is Sandy Cheeks. They both share a love of Karate, and are often shown trying to better each other by performing various moves. Squidward actually likes Spongebob in some episodes and SpongeBob is delighted...
SpongeBob is said to be an adult, but he has a very childlike manner-he is not ashamed to enjoy things generally associated with younger children, such as cartoons and homemade cookies. He is not good at discerning sarcasm from sincerity, and, at times, is very literal-minded, which can lead to disaster for those around him. Despite these traits, his lightweight appearance, and his lack of physical strength, SpongeBob considers himself very mature, and has attempted-and failed-to prove his "manliness" on many occasions.
SpongeBob has a career as a fry cook at the Krusty Krab restaurant. In spite of his meager salary (he once claimed that he is forced to pay his own boss) and the restaurant's poor working conditions, he is very proud of his trade. He is highly skilled at his job, and has won the Employee of the Month award hundreds of times. SpongeBob is always determined to please his boss, Eugene H. Krabs, who sometimes grows weary of SpongeBob's continous enthusiasm. However, he is favoured by Mr Krabs because he is hard-working, and very good at his job.
A recurring joke in the series reveals that SpongeBob is incapable of getting his driving license. He has attended Mrs. Puff's boating school for many years, and each year, manages to fail his driving test. SpongeBob attributes this to nervousness behind the wheel; despite knowing how to drive, he loses his composure when driving, often ending up in a car accident.
