The scene where Plankton "gave up" on the whole fast food franchise and chasing after the formula all lead to this. But I'll leave it to you to judge whether this Spongebob episode was just that or was implying something else entirely.
Plankton: Can't you understand that I've wasted too much time chasing after you? And now I finally have something that's mine.. and it makes me happy.
Mr. Krabs: He really gave up. What happened to the invertebrate that I used to know? *rushes home while sobbing uncontrollably*
I, for one, found this scene hilarious in its attempt to pull a few heartstrings-- so much that I had to share it with other people. It is with that, therefore, that I share this mostly non-verbatim conversation with a particular someone who wished for me to tweet what, he deemed, can pass off as quotes.
If the scene above didn't resemble a break-up scene so much then maybe these words would not have been said. Maybe.
Person: *goes on about how even cartoons have love lives*
Me: A crab and a plankton.. Love knows no boundaries.
Person: If you're miserable and can't find love, what's your excuse?
Me: We're playing hide and seek.. but no one's seeking.
Person: My excuse is that God said love can be found in all corners of the world. Then He made the world round.
Me: But the thing is, since the world is a sphere, corners can be formed inside it. So maybe the more appropriate reasoning for the person under those circumstances is that he/she is just standing on the wrong corner.
Person: But you're not looking for corners, you're playing hide and seek. Start seeking.
Me: Well the person's good at hiding. Others are better at seeking than I am.
Person: Maybe there's this one person na ikaw lang ang pwedeng makahanap.
Maybe one would think that normal people do not have conversations like this on a Wednesday evening. But whoever said that I was part of this "normal people"? And as much entertaining this conversation was, it got me thinking.. what if it were true?
What if all those people out there claiming that they haven't found love yet was just standing at the wrong corner of the world? And what if they keep on going to different corners but they end up going in the wrong direction?
What if they're seeking other people but keep on failing just because the people they find are not the ones that they are meant to find? For all we know, we just did someone a favor of finding someone that belongs to them and they're just unknowingly returning the favor by lending us someone who's rightfully theirs. Therein lies the problem.
Indefinite.
Uncertain.
Just like how I'm not sure how to end this
