About
Push It Somewhere Else Patrick (also known as "Pushing Patrick") is an image macro series based on a scene from the animated television series SpongeBob SquarePants. The captions typically use the snowclone template “We should take X and put it Y” or “We should X and Y" to suggest an alternative solution to a given problem.
Origin
The screen capture used in the image macro comes from the Spongebob Squarepants episode "Sandy, SpongeBob, and the Worm,"[3] originally aired on October 12th, 2001. In the episode, the character Patrick Star provides a possible solution for dealing with the threat of an Alaskan Bull Worm, by suggesting they relocate the entire town (shown below).
"We should take Bikini Bottom and push it somewhere else."
A Meme Generator[5] page for “Push is Somewhere Else Patrick” was created at an unknown date in 2010, featuring two pane image macros using screen captures from the Spongebob Squarepants scene.
