In this episode Squidward travels 2000 years in the future to 4017, so this episode took place in 2017. And since SB-129 came out in 1999, that would mean part of SpongeBob was actually ahead of our time.

I've never seen that used to describe a date? Since in the real world we use "BCE, CE, BC, AD" my point was that "2017 ND" in the SpongeBob universe could be a totally different date then 2017 CE/AD in the real world

Well I thought the joke here was we were being super specific about what year SpongeBob takes place in. Tbh though idk what "a" looks like in future font so you could be right

Wait, SpongeBob is a period piece?

No, but art is always affected by the time period it was made in.

Kinda like how star trek next generation is set in the year 3000 or something, but everybody has haircuts from the 1980s
