Squidward Tentacles 

The most inspiring cartoon character on television.

Why? Because Squidward never gives up on his dreams.

No matter how many times Spongebob ruins his day, he still continues to strive for a better one.

No matter how many times he fails at clarinet, he continues to play and try to get better so that he can one day become famous for it.

No matter how many rotten tomatoes get thrown at him because he is a horrible dancer, he continues to dance and shoot for the stars.

No matter how many times his arch enemy with the unibrow tells him he’s worthless, he continues to climb back up and try to impress him.

No matter how many paintings are rejected and unliked by people, he continues to paint because he believes he is a great artist.

That, my dear children, is dedication. I think we could all learn a little bit from good old Squidward Tentacles.

He has self confidence and never gives up on his dreams, which is something we can all learn from.

Squidward J. Q. Tentacles 

Squidward's personality is grumpy, hot-tempered, selfish, nasty, unfriendly, and of course, miserable. In spite of this, he is still one of the most intelligent characters, and out of the ten major characters, he can be categorized as the most educated one, along with Sandy Cheeks (Carolyn Lawrence), Plankton (Douglas Lawrence), and Gary the Snail. He has a sarcastic attitude and sees others as uncivilized morons, while failing to accept his own personal shortcomings. Squidward sees himself as misunderstood and unappreciated, blaming society for his failures.

The grindset is a contemporary ideology of self-exploitation disguised as strength, deeply tied to the aesthetics of the “sigma male” and to new digital forms of patriarchy. It promotes the idea that human worth depends on productivity, economic success, absolute emotional control, and the ability to work endlessly, turning vulnerability, rest, community, and tenderness into signs of weakness. Beneath its rhetoric of discipline and power often lies a profound inability to relate healthily to pain, fragility, and human interdependence.
“That’s the grindset, brother. While weak men sleep and complain, sigma males stay disciplined, work in silence, suppress emotions, and build power while everyone else wastes time chasing comfort.”

An Irish phrase meaning shit, derived from ass
(Not to be confused with the literal description of one's buttocks)
"Did you hear the song Aylek$ dropped?"
"Hardly. Her music is absolute cheeks."

"My boyfriend say LaFlame is cheeks."
"Tell your boyfriend I said it's his mixtape that's cheeks."
