SpongeBob is very kind-hearted and innocent, and very rarely acts openly mean to anyone, even his enemies. He is a very selfless and loyal person, especially towards those close to him. His selfless nature is most notably shown in Best Day Ever, where he sacrifices his perfect day to help his friends. Despite his well-meaning intentions, SpongeBobs actions often annoy and cause trouble for those around him, most notably his next-door neighbor, Squidward Tentacles.\r

SpongeBob can become scared easily and usually panics when frightened. He is afraid of the dark (or what is in the dark) and clowns. Occasionally, SpongeBob is too ignorant to notice impending danger and his unworldly THINKING may put himself or others in peril. He also cannot detect lies or malice information as easy as the other characters, mainly due to his naive nature.\r

SpongeBobs innocence also makes him overly trusting and very gullible, and he is easily manipulated by people who intend to use and/or harm him, such as Squidward, Mr. Krabs and Plankton; most noticeably, he is always easily fooled by Plankton no matter how bizarre or obvious his disguises are. Even though he is generally good-natured and easygoing, when frustrated and angered, SpongeBob can be sarcastic, rude and foul-mouthed to his friends, even Mr. Krabs, whom he treats as a father figure.\r
