**GG_Guru** · 07-10-2012, 01:10 PM

On July 8th, Ernest Borgnine the voice actor of "Mermaid Man" in the series Spongebob Squarepants, died from kidney failure at the age of 95.

I grew up watching Spongebob as a kid so I was a little shocked when I heard the news, but I think he lived a good life and he will be greatly missed by many fans.

I would have never imagined he was actually an elderly man.

This was my first thought but in the sense that Spongebob isn't that old and no 20 year old grew up on it unless they did their growing up in their mid teens or something.

I know that actually wouldn't have been my first guess! They usually have younger cast members do most of the voice overs for other cartoons.

It sucks someone died, but honestly he wasn't that important.

It's funny because once you reach a certain age you're supposed to stop having fun right, ... right??? I bet you think this attitude makes you "mature" too.

Or how about just let people do their own thing, you do yours, and stop caring so much what it is they do if it's not hurting anybody.

Older episodes of Spongebob still manage to make me laugh.

Lately everything seems to be uninteresting to me so I take whatever fun I can get. If spongebob can amuse me then so be it.
