    Sir.... If you are not going to be serious, please do not respond.

    Genetically it is not possible, also it's spongebob sqaure pants, so the answer is adoption like Ginny said.

    I didn't know this was a serious thread. It's just a kids show, don't take it too hard. It's like Ninja Turtles. How'd the Nuclear waste not kill them? Or did they not die from their diet alone?
    I bet I also wasn't the only one who saw this as the possibility of a joke thread.

    Actually, this is more common that you think. The specimen you see on the right is not, in fact, a Whale, but a crab with Lookinglikeawhaleitis, a common skin rash found in tropical crabs which causes them to look like small Whales. Hope this helps.

    It's hard to tell with him, honestly. Every post of his I've seen always winds up as an attack after a while.

    Slandering a person's character is the worst form of a personal attack there is... you may want to keep that in mind next time you accuse somebody of doing nothing but attacking everybody else.

    On a side note... Learn to take a joke for f*** sake

    I was saying it's hard to understand with you. I didn't mean any offense by it. Sorry if I did.

    S'alright I suppose

    I agree that it's just a kid's show so just run with it... and Robert, that it is also difficult to determine if you were really being serious, since past experience has shown you to be a bit touchy about things.

    Try to be more obvious that you're joking next time when you tell someone to gtfo.

    Its about a f***ing cartoon.... anybody who has even a trace amount of sarcasm within them should automatically know that I wasn't serious.

    I assure that the last thing I'm going to be touchy abou is a friggin' cartoon. Only time I go off is when I feel I or someone close to me is being disrespected

    Well, at first glance, I thought it looked like a hammer with eyes, hair, and clothing... I don't know if this sheds any light on the question.

    To be fair, I always believed Mr. Krabs married Pearl's Mom (And then adopted her) but her Mom dissapeared for some reason.

    Could always wiki it, and if you're wrong make your self right.

    A genetics problem? I'll go get my Punnett square!

    My first guess would be that it probably has something to do with sex-linked recessive genes, though. Probably with a map distance of less than five milliMorgans.

    ...or this could work, too.
  • edited August 2010
    Adoption is likely. It's not unheard of. For example, adoption is widely attributed to the emergence of the first Caucasian humans.

    But only if there's pork*.

    *A lady here in the US was denied adopting a child because she doesn't allow pork in her home. The reason she doesn't allow pork in home is due to her religion.

    That's ridiculous... I doubt they'd disallow a vegetarian from adopting. I bet it was repealed anyway.

    The adoption people probably just didn't like that lady and that was the only reason they could come up with to prevent her from adopting.

    Despite all of my time underwater, I am not readily equipped to provide an answer. Ask Dr. Suchong.
