Beginning this week, fans can meme themselves as SpongeBob SquarePants on Snapchat, thanks to a series of new filters that allow users to place themselves inside of some of the most famous internet memes based on the long-running animated series. The SpongeBob SquarePants memes (many of the same ones currently available as Masterpiece Memes toys at retailers around the world) are available to Snapchat users in the United States through December 22. Some Snapchat users will automatically see the SpongeBob SquarePants icon among the selection of lenses, while others can scan a special Snapcode to access the lenses. You can see the official description for the filters below.

The exclusively designed lenses are available on Snapchat for a limited time only and feature the most popular characters and iconic meme moments from Nickelodeon’s hit animated series, including Imaginaaation SpongeBob, Surprised Patrick, Handsome Squidward and SpongeGar.
SpongeBob SquarePants’ memes are part of the Internet lexicon, and now fans can craft and share their own personalized versions of: being overly happy like Imaginaaation SpongeBob, being shocked like Surprised Patrick or showing both sides of themselves as Public Account vs. Private Account through Handsome Squidward and SpongeGar.
