This blog post is all about funny Spongebob graduation cap ideas to recreate!
Congratulations on graduating college! This is such a huge achievement and one of the best parts about this achievement is your graduation ceremony! If you’re wondering what design to put on your graduation cap then you’ve come to the right place. And if you love Spongebob Squarepants, even better! Here are some Spongebob graduation cap ideas to recreate and personalize for your own graduation cap!
1. Four years later
The most iconic parts of Spongebob are the time cards. If you love Spongebob, I’m pretty sure you can even hear the narrator saying it! This graduation cap idea takes inspiration from these time cards, with the design saying “four years later” because college takes four years to complete. It even includes the flower clouds from the show to make it look even more pretty!
2. One eternity later
I’m sure you remember that episode in Spongebob when Squidward tried to write a symphony. He’s up all day and night trying to write it, and when he finally does, he holds up the paper and looks exhausted! This graduation cap idea is inspired by that meme when Squidward holds the paper. But to make it graduation-related, make sure to add a graduation cap on Squidward’s head. As a funny joke, caption this with the iconic Spongebob time card saying “one eternity later,” and decorate the background with the flower clouds!
3. Victory screech
The victory screech that Spongebob makes is the perfect inspiration for a graduation cap design! Make sure that with this cap, Spongebob is holding a college diploma scroll to make it graduation-themed! The hand-painted flower clouds are such a cute addition to the design, too!
4. It’s not just a paper, it’s my diploma
The famous meme and TikTok sound “It’s not just a boulder, it’s a rock” is taken from the Pizza Delivery episode! This Spongebob graduation cap idea is a funny parody of this meme, where instead of hugging a rock, Spongebob is hugging a framed college diploma!
5. Ight imma graduate
“Ight imma head out” is a meme that came from The Smoking Peanut episode of Spongebob. This graduation design takes inspiration from this, with the caption being “ight imma graduate instead and with Spongebob wearing a graduation cap and holding a diploma scroll.
6. Graduation ready
Remember in the Mermaid Man and Barnicle Boy episode of SpongeBob where Spongebob is dressed in purple drag, carrying a purse and saying, “This purse is so big and heavy.” I love how this Spongebob graduation cap idea takes this meme and makes it graduate-themed for the occasion. Instead of Spongebob dressed in drag, dress him in a cap and gown. And instead of having him holding a purse, make him hold a college diploma
scroll! The purple sky and multicolored flower clouds are a great choice for the background of this design, too, as they draw attention to the focus: Spongebob!
7. You don’t need a diploma to drive a sandwich
This Spongebob graduation cap idea takes inspiration from The Spongebob Squarepants Movie, where Spongebob tells Patrick, “You don’t need a licence to drive a sandwich.” But instead of “licence”, this design says “diploma.” This idea is a funny one and will be much appreciated by graduates who loved the Spongebob Squarepants movie.
8. Goodbye everybody, I’ll remember you all in therapy
This cap design is inspired by the Spongebob episode, The Algae’s Always Greener. Funny enough, the graphic and caption are exactly what the scene looks and sounds like. Plankton really does say, “Goodbye, everybody. I’ll remember you in therapy,” which is hilariously fitting for your graduation ceremony!
9. Four years later (Primitive Spongebob)
This funny cap design is inspired by that famous primitive Spongebob meme. In this design, he’s dressed in a loin cloth while wearing a graduation cap and holding a diploma scroll. The green base and light green flower clouds in the background make the design look even better!
10. Ravioli, ravioli give me my diplomioli
This cap design references the hilarious Spongebob episode, Imitation Krabs, where Plankton disguises himself as Mr Krabs to steal the krabby patty formula, telling Spongebob, “Ravioli, ravioli, give me the formuoli.” This design is so well executed, and I love the detail of Spongebob holding a diploma scroll while wearing a graduation cap.
11. When in doubt pinky it out
This is one of the cute Spongebob graduation cap designs that simply has a graphic of Patrick wearing a graduation cap and holding a diploma, captioned “When in doubt, pinky it out.” If you want a quick and easy design to recreate, this is the one to go for!
12. I’m ready, I’m ready!
One of Spongebob’s main catchphrases is “I’m ready,” which can perfectly apply to graduating! For this design, have Spongebob wear a graduation cap while holding a diploma scroll, running toward the Krusty Krab. Caption it, “I’m ready, I’m ready.”
To make it more personal to you, add your university and year of graduation! I absolutely love the jellyfish added to this design, too; it looks so cute!
13. Firmly grasp it
This funny graduation cap idea references the Jellyfishing episode in Spongebob where Patrick tells Squidward (who’s completely wrapped up in bandages) to grasp a jellyfishing net firmly. I love how this was made to be graduation-themed, with Patrick, Squidward, and Spongebob wearing graduation caps while firmly grasping a diploma scroll.
14. No! This is Patrick!
One of the most iconic memes from Spongebob is from the Big Pink Loser episode, where Patrick is hired at the Krusty Krab. When a call comes through and he picks up, the caller asks, “Is this the Krusty Krab?” to which Patrick replies, “No! This is Patrick!” While the graphics on this graduation cap idea aren’t taken from the exact scene, it still has a graphic of Patrick (wearing a graduation cap and holding a diploma scroll) captioned “Is this graduation?” and “No! This is Patrick!” I especially love how the flower clouds look on this cap too!
15. Is graduation an instrument?
In the episode Band Geeks, Patrick asks Squidward, “Is mayonnaise an instrument?” which is what this graduation cap design references, replacing “mayonnaise” with “graduation.” I love the little cap on Patrick’s head in this design, as well!
16. Fuuuturre
The graduation cap references the SB-129 episode when Squidward goes into the future. He’s laying on the floor, screaming “future,” which this cap depicts!
17. When you use Quizlet to pass all your classes
Every college graduate knows of and/or has used Quizlet to help pass their class. This Spongebob graduation cap is a shoutout to Quizlet using the savage Patrick meme!
18. I don’t know, I didn’t think I’d get this far
This references the Plankton’s Army episode of Spongebob where Plankton threatens Mr Krab to give him the Krabby Patty formula. This quote can be so relatable to graduating as college is such a tough period of time in our lives to get through and succeed in.
19. Sweet victory
The iconic performance of Sweet Victory from the Bank Geeks episode of Spongebob is the perfect graduation cap idea to make a statement! Graduating college truly is a sweet victory, and I love how this cap design shows it!
20. The higher you hold it, the fancier you are
I love how this Spongebob graduation cap design flips the idea of fancy from holding your pinky high in the air (which Patrick does in the original scene from the Tea at the Treedome episode in Spongebob) to holding your diploma scroll!
21. Who you callin graduate?
The iconic quote from Patrick, “Who you callin’ pinhead?” is slightly changed for this graduation cap design to say, “Who you callin’ graduate?” The perfect (and funny) way to state the fact that it is you, in fact, whom everyone is calling the graduate!
22. Put the diploma in the bag
This graduation cap design is a hilarious reference to the Doing Time episode in Spongebob where he and Patrick try to rob a bank, with SpongeBob shouting, “Put the money in the bag.” With this design being graduate themed, “money” is replaced by “diploma!” If you’re looking for a graduate cap design that you can hand draw, this is the perfect choice!
23. Me hoy minoy
Remember the Doodlebob character from Spongebob? The one who ends up stealing the pencil that Spongebob used to draw him? Well, for this Spongebob graduation cap design, Doodlebob is stealing a diploma scroll rather than a pencil!
24. Bachelor of wumbology
Wumbology is a completely made-up term created by Patrick, but it makes for a funny graduation cap design!
25. Can I be excused for the rest of my life?
Spongebob asked this question during school in The Billy episode, and it could not be more relatable when taking classes in college! This cap design is a funny reference to the scene and perfectly describes the college life that you have experienced!
26. Spongebob smirking
This facial expression that Spongebob makes is seen in the Just One Bite episode when he asked Squidward if he admittedly likes krabby patties. Although this cap design only shows the facial expression, it perfectly captures the feeling that anyone experienced knowing they graduated from college!
