This is money well spent

Noah

The sound effects that arin is doing are cooking me

Giovie Barraco

Please read the rest of this story, RIP regretful reads

Liah Uribe

This would be a great way to get answers from cia spies

Anabelle Cardona

I think Dan's gonna need therapy before he can ever watch Spongebob again.

Xoannon

did they ever read any of supermega saves the troops

muse

I had to turn this off and resume watching the next day because my SpongeBob loving husband was home and I could not possibly make him suffer through this

Veronica Adams

I audibly went “oh no…” after hearing this was about SpongeBob. Not my booooy 😭

SUPERSHASHA

I HATE how many pages are left and in only at 7 minutes Edit: Dear god they’re DOUBLE SIDED?!? 😭

Veronica Adams

i think we killed dan with this one

Shane Hamilton

The fact that the editor was able to find that Scrabble stock vid is impressive (unless it's AI)

Emilyn

Jesus...... this. This was different

Slug's Slug

It might be my mental illness talking, but I said "aww" a lot more often than anything else listening to this

danshifackao

Not to flex, but I generally have a very strong constitution.. But spending the last 30+ minutes.... there's no other word aside from enduring, I endured that story! My... I'm a different man after that story... Not a better man for it, I'm just a different man. Now I miss the guy I was 30 minutes ago, and I hated that guy.

DevilRay-K

I remember Regretful Reads covering this story years ago, so it's already iconic in my mind. I cackled the whole way through this reading!

LizFreak

secondhand embarrasment has never been so painful and so comedic

gigithesqueegee

my entire life has lead to this moment

Aldason

I RAN to this video when I saw the preview on IG

Hayri

They’ve read a bit of it, it’s the last fic they read in episode 11. I’d really like to hear more of it too, it was so fuckin funny

VoidDragoncat

This series is so degenerate 😂 its amazing "Im gonna pre, SpongeBob!"

Deadpoet

Thanks, guys. I hate it

Luke Gardener (ArkUmbra)

Dan’s “dude trust me” gestures at 20:41 killed me

SwoodMan

Banger episode tho

SwoodMan

As entertaining as this is, maybe the next one can be non-pornographic, just to shake things up

SwoodMan

listening to fanfiction while writing fanfiction.... could life be any better than this?

Kura Kurington IV

This is the kind of content I joined Patreon for.

Ellyn Schwartzbauer

I am going to disintegrate

p8ton8

Peter what is this?

John Peng

bonecrunchingly harrowing watch, thanks boys

Lee Mulkins

I just took a shower and I feel like I need to take another one now

James Wehr

Same. Had to stop eating.

Sean

I'm different after hearing this one...

Sean

Tell her about her heritage

Sally Sociopath

The ethereal music real drives this reading home lmao

karatecorgi

As a writer, you have an endless sea of possibilities to explore. And yet the author chose to write this.

Cael AJ

Man, don’t bring Stephen Hillenberg into this

Gilly Savard

I need to stop watching these at work

Nikki-John-Wicky

aw man, i have a niece named Claire don’t do that to me 💀

Jamie

"I don't understand. the story is called "can a sponge and an octopus fall in love"? ...His name is SQUIDward" According to the late Steven Hillenburg. the reason he is called squidward is "because Squidward sounds better than Octoward"

Erik VonStrix III

love that in chapter 2 the motivation for the sex scene is legitimately that squidward forgot to make dessert and needed to distract spongebob

Cami L

...so does subscribing to the patreon void my right to sue for mental damages, or

NotLorePerson

i don’t think watching this after taking an edible was a good idea

Rhiannon Lade

You know, I somehow managed to dissasociate thru and just not connect the image of spongebob and squidward in this... but then they showed the fan art and it all came crashing in

Annie Banannie

Squidward is a pillow princess! I can’t buy into this world.

Melanie Gobber

Why did I think it was a good idea to watch this while I ate lunch?

Jackson Schrickel

As I was listening to this, the realization hit me that I am paying money for this

Roxanne Giling

Guess the author was unaware about what happens to male octopods after mating…

Lollo-hehe

words cannot describe what it felt like to make it through this whole thing only to learn it shared my fucking name

Lyca

harder squidward

J. Rabbit

get out of my head

J. Rabbit

This being posted directly after the pregnancy foods power hour is diabolical

Thanatoast

30:00 Author studied the lore enough to know Squidward is an octopus but somehow forgot about the infamous cussing episode

Edward Maldonado

I’ve never been more repulsed in my life

Elf_Arwen

Well, that’s my childhood ruined

annaroseb

If this writer was a TRUE fan then instead of saying “fuck” SpongeBob would’ve started making dolphin sounds

Dirkdammit

Ugh. The thought of Spongebob and Squidward fking is absolutely repulsive to me 😂 "Squiddy" is just... Ughhh. I thought I HATED the piss one but this...

A. F.

It’s days like this I really miss my immortal

RueTheKenku

They managed to do it, it took awhile, but they finally broke Arin.

Nick Di Rubio

To be clear I'm gay as hell and this still made me so uncomfortable. 😂 Though Arin's random, "I wonder what Patrick's up to?" fucking killed me.

Samuel

Loved it

Jaelights

Despite everything else in this video, I think "muh'fucker loves readin'..." made me laugh the hardest.

AutismRizz

I'm in so much pain, physically and most DEFINITELY mentally

Shani Wilkinson

I made that mistake too lmao "oh let me find something to watch while I eat my Wendy's." It was hard to finish this video and my food. I should know better, yet here we are lol

TheGreatNaj

Wow, I've seen all of your fanfiction storytime episodes and this was one of the hardest ones to get through LOL

Phaneros

Now, this.... This is what Daddy came for.

Nathen

I was kicking and then I grabbed my husband’s leg and was shaking it. I was so upset. My husband started laughing really hard.

WaveJam

It was honestly worse when Dan and Arin were doing the voices.

WaveJam

We just started and the first lines are explicit lmao

danner253

honestly this is incredibly tame. like there's actual victorian smut more wild than this

theberryofdingle

Anyone else feel personally victimised by this fic?

Ronnicat Mew

Arin giving the sound effects is way too funny 🤣 reminds me of the Sonic fanfic they read on Sonic Unleashed. When Arin made a splurge noise and Dan broke down 😂

Ali Cat

i think the utter ridiculousness of sonic highschool make it easier to digest while the absolute minute precision and accuracy in this one makes it very uncomfortable (like it's all fine that spongebob and squidward love eachother but this makes me feel like i am right there and i don't want that lol)

Nicolas Carpentier

Arin's "deep" spongebob moan has me fucking CRYING. Dan, I know you really suffered for this one but it is such a treasure. Thank you 😂

Kaitlynn Lemmons

I remember regretfulreads reading this story, it’s a whole series please keep going I need it all

ladychungus

Tuning in to every episode like "Alright, what brand of freak am I gonna disover today?"

Marie Novotná

Started the fanfic cutting out collage pictures at my desk. Ended the fanfic sitting on the edge of the bed, head in my hands like a man who just lost everything in a card game.

ITS_BABA_YAGA_BEYOTCH

that was rough but funny, love the grumps reactions

Jacob McMains

It's so well-researched... the guy knows about the library; he hasn't just seen one or two episodes, he actually knows the show... yowzers.

Allen ML

The impression Arin was doing of Spongebob's guttural moaning had me actually in tears omg 😭

REMsheep

I reacted so viscerally to this. Holy fucking shit…

WaveJam

i hate the way my brain tried to fill in spongebob type sound effects when they described certain things lol.

ThumperDaeTime

amazing lol

ThumperDaeTime

The kokichi piss fics are the greatest written love stories to ever exist, how dare you.

Kenneth D. Mohr

Wow. That opening line. No build up? Just straight to fuckin. Respect XD

Kenneth D. Mohr

I love that dan can't handle this fic, this is one of the TAMEST things ive heard in a hot minute

maverino

I can only wonder just how much time goes into making the intro for these videos unique for each one.

CSDX

Funny some people can't stomach this one, when it's just a story about two people that love each other. To me, Sonic assaulting Amy last time was a harder sit.

Swonker

I hate Mpreg, but strangely, I didn't think this fanfic was that bad. It's way less disgusting than the Kokichi piss fics or the E.T. x Elliot smut.

Megan Maginnis

I can watch a lot while eating. I got through the 10MPH milk episode. I couldn't get through this one.

Walking Zero

“A pity she does not exist A shame he’s not a f@g The only girl I’ve ever loved Was SpongeBob in Drag” -Squidward Tentacles, 2025

Tzatoky

This one is fuckin digusting :/

Biagio M

Search the title at AO3. It's there.

Edenza

Arin's intermittent SpongeBob moans really added to the experience in ways I can't fully articulate

HipHop Jazz

*Ralph Wiggum voice" haha, I'm in danger!

Pancakes

Aaron Albrecht

I legitmately feel like I'm about to have a fucking panic attack or some shit from hearing everything that's in this video. I'm like hyperventilating without control, I got the cold sweats and my hands are trembling so much that it's proving extremely difficult to just write this comment. What the fuck is going on, I legitimately cannot decide if I love this or hate this, like should I even be paying money for this shit? I don't even know anymore

Doktor Vem

I just joined the patreon and spent the last few days watching all of FFST, and now I'm treated with this. Best $5 I ever spent

Swonker

Seeing the thumbnail and reading the title the only thing I could think was "Ooooooooooh noooooooooo..."

Doktor Vem

Have they read the full life Chronicles?? The half life fan fic??? If not...

GrabbaGhoul

I have read many a fanfiction in my time on this planet but man this one did a number on me 🤣

ToraKU14

Omg he started doing the voices 🥹 best of both worlds

Gem

I'm so torn because on the one hand I wish Arin had been the one to read this one bc you know he would have done all the voices which would make it 100x funnier, but also Dan reading it and being so visibly uncomfortable to the point that he just seems disappointed is perhaps just as good

Gem

I definitely cant un-hear this....

Geoff Zilla

im so glad we paused the horrible, horrible sex to get a fun fact about squidward

Lavender

I... can't with this one 😑

vaporlocke여든한

This was INSANE. I also am shocked the biological accuracy this author went into.

Marissa Mason

That was the worst on yet and I love it...more please

Lady Thea

I feel emotionally manipulated by that one.

Sarahmonster

Wow... im a different person now.

Skimply

35 mintues of this

Shelby Bird

Hey so that was the worst thing I have ever heard please keep doing it

Artemis

whoever submitted this… why.

Mia Ram

As soon as we got to the phone call I had to pause the video to post. Sponge Bob is pregnant. EDIT: I guessed right :(

Solstng

What a horrible day to have ears.

Dave Test

Fortune favors the brave.

Beef

It’s not everyday we get the author’s note. I’m gunna pre, squiddy

Beef

Arin’s intermittent guttural SpongeBob moans have me DYING 🤣💀

Jessica Johnson

He put his thingy in the you-know-what!

Edenza

Holy shit I didn’t think y’all would actually pick this, thank you so much-I used to listen to regretful reads read this all the time, and now having you guys read it is so amazing <3 Also sincere apologies to everyone lol

Icky

I had my doubts listening to this on full blast at work, but now everyone passes me and yells HARDER SQUIDDY so that’s a win in my book

Beef

Fuck yes!

Mitch and Meg

I'm so ready

V a l e

Are you tasting my osculum Mr. Krabs?

Beef

I CAN EAT LUNCH NOW YIPPEE
