Complications of ALS. The man's work was a part of my childhood and even as an adult, much of classic SpongeBob has some solid workplace (retail) commentary.

RIP :( Thanks for everything, Stephen!

Never watched Spongebob, was already married when it came out so I'm too old to have been caught on that wave. However, I understand that the whole thing was inspired by one of my favorite albums, so I figure he had good music taste.

Anyway, ALS is a horrible way to go. RIP.

That's very sad. He died really young.

I never watched Spongebob Squarepants, but I know the show was loved by many. Waiting for a Bill Maher blog about this one...

It frightens me how many things can go wrong in the human body.

That’s sad to hear. I never knew the guy and only watched Spongebob here and there with my young nephew and niece but it was a pretty funny show.

Thanks for all the meme material.

Don't forget all the things that can go right! Either on their own, with science, or through sheer will.
