Because he doesn't believe in it, he just completely fails when he attempts to participate." Casey Alexander, a staff writer, remarked, "I most identify with the character Squidward. He is, in a hyperbolic sense, the most human character. I suspect that I would respond to a SpongeBob-like individual the same way Squidward does ".
