Personality
Squidward Tentacles is a light green/blue colour, and has purple suction cups at the end of his tentacles. He has six limbs in total, two being arms and four being legs. Whenever he walks his suction cups stick to the floor, meaning that he walks with a distinct squelching noise. Squidward has a large bald head, big droopy nose and yellow eyes with red pupils. He wears a brown short-sleeved shirt.
Squidward is usually portrayed to be a whiny, sitck-in-the-mud character, a complete opposite to SpongeBob SquarePants. He is very egotistical and can't stand saying sorry to anyone or admitting his mistakes. He considers himself very sophisticated and upper-class, and looks down on most other people. Most of the time Squidward is impatient, egotistical and finds everything dull and trivial. However, in some episodes, Squidward is shown to have a rather more wild side. An example of this is in 'Squidsville', Squidward goes to live in a town with other people who are exactly like him. However, Squidward realises that he can't cope with this lifestyle and is shown at the end of the episode to fly away on a reef-blower whilst laughing manically. Also, in 'Squid's Day Off' Squidward is shown as very unstable and slightly mad in nature. Although Squidward has a generally dull and uncaring personality, he cannot keep it up constantly and turns hysterical every once in a while, much to SpongeBob's confusion.
Squidward works as the cashier in the Krusty Krab, but he hates his job, largely due to the fact that he has to work with SpongeBob. He shows no enthusiam, although he often shares a private joke with his boss, Eugene H. Krabs, about SpongeBob. Squidward is only in his job for the paycheck, however small this may be. He dreams of being a world-famous clarinet player, but has done nothing to achieve this.
Lifestyle
Sqidward loves art. He has many self-portraits of himself all around his house, but rarely paints anything else. He also plays the clarinet, which he nicknames "Clary". He seems to think that he is a talented clarinet player, but really his songs are usually very out of tune. Squidward also enjoys watching television, listening to the radio ,riding his bike and reading. He takes great pleasure from treating and pampering himself, although he is usually interrupted by SpongeBob whilst trying to relax.
Next to his dream to become a renowned clarinet player, he dreams of having hair, as he is quite sensitive about his baldness (which, due to his egotistical nature, he won't admit). However, in 'The Original Fry-Cook', it is revealed that Squidward used to have flowing blond hair.While talking to Jim about life,Squidward said he might possibly lose all his beautiful hair, and when he said it,all of his hair exploded! Squidward soon spent hours trying to find even the tiniest amount of hair.
Squidward lives in an Easter Island head. Unfortunately for him, his house is located right in between SpongeBob's pineapple and Patrick's rock. Squidward's house has been shown to have the ability to move on several occasions, including when it leans over in order to peek into Patrick's secret box. It also hs been shown with two rocky arms protruding from the ground that it puts in its ears when SpongeBob and Patrick are being particularly loud.
