This relatable humor meme pairs a distorted, close-up shot of a stressed-looking SpongeBob SquarePants with text describing a common late-night experience: when you are alone in a dark room at 3AM, your overactive imagination makes you unable to tell if a shadowy shape in the corner is just a jacket hanging up, or a motionless headless man standing still. The tense, uncomfortable expression of SpongeBob perfectly matches the paranoid, uneasy feeling of this silly common scare.
