The Spongmonkey Moon Society

Spong Monkey on the Moon

We're not just fans. We're lunatics. The Spongmonkey Moon Society began one foggy night in 2004 when a group of bleary-eyed insomniacs caught that Quiznos commercial at 3 AM. You know the one. Those bulging eyes. Those human teeth. That inexplicable song about subs.

But we saw something deeper. Something cosmic.

"We love the moon! Because it is close to us! We love the moooon! But not as much as a spoon!"

That's right. Before they were singing about toasted subs, Joel Veitch's strange creatures were professing their lunar devotion. The original "We Like The Moon" video predated the Quiznos ads, and it spoke to us. Hard.

Why The Moon?

The moon doesn't judge. The moon doesn't care if you're a weird-looking puppet with questionable dental work. The moon just is. And in that cosmic acceptance, the Spongmonkeys found their spiritual home.

Our society celebrates this pure, unfiltered weirdness. We gather monthly under the full moon to sing off-key songs about kitchen utensils. We've developed elaborate theories about why Spongmonkeys prefer spoons to forks (it's the reflective properties, obviously). Some members have even legally changed their names to "We Love The Subs" Johnson.

Our Lunar Activities

Every full moon, society members worldwide participate in synchronized howling sessions. It's not pretty, but it's honest. We've been banned from seventeen public parks and counting.

Our annual "Ride the Quiznos Rocket" event involves building questionable cardboard spacecraft and launching them from moderately sized hills. Safety waivers are required. Dental insurance is strongly recommended.

The Lunar Manifesto

Our principles are simple:

  1. Embrace the weird. The weirder, the better.
  2. Love the moon unconditionally, but love spoons more.
  3. Sing like nobody's listening (they probably wish they weren't).
  4. Toast everything. EVERYTHING.
  5. Never explain the joke. If they don't get it, they're not our people.

We've been called a cult. We prefer "enthusiastic lunar appreciation society with questionable puppet mascots." It's longer, but more accurate.

Some nights, when the moon is full and the air is still, you might hear us. A distant, off-key chorus: "We love the mooooooon!" Don't be alarmed. We're harmless. Mostly.
