SpongeBob Squarepants Easter Egg - Inside Jokes

The writers in Spongebob sometimes reference the show's length in funny ways. For example, in the episode when Spongebob loses his identity. After finishing his story, the waitress says "well you managed to kill 11 minutes." and in the episode "Nature Pants" Sandy and Squidward predict how long Spongebob would last in the wild, "I give him a week," "I give him 11 minutes," and so on. Although it is usually Squidward who references it.
