I never understood why this particular meme needed to be told from within the SpongeBob universe
Probably because a bunch of people around the age that relate with the meme are still watching SpongeBob
Yes. This. Speaks to the twenty-something crowd well.
Same reason shitposts from 20 years ago use cartoons from 30 - 40 years ago.
Most people in their 20s (who grew up with any sort of western cultural influence) have memories of watching spongebob as a kid.
Its literally one of the most influential and popular children's series of the past 20 years, if not ever.
I throw you another question, why not?
More effort for the creator to edit? Possibly isolates audiences unfamiliar with the franchise, particularly those who wouldn’t know that the fish is a newscaster or that the stylized TV is a TV? Also, the wojak is underwater and as a human presumably wouldn’t be able to breathe (boy, I really hope somebody got fired for that blunder).
I’m also just now noticing that a real life photo of clothes has been edited onto the cartoon wojak. It seems like there’s too much hyperstylization in the visuals in contrast to what is supposed to be a generic idea in the message.
