When the party is one bowl of crisps and a quiz / Are you feeling it now?
A Are You Feeling It Now, Mr. Krabs? post.
Your dad turns fifty. You buy him a skateboard. He stands on it, holding the kitchen counter. You ask if he feels young yet. You get the family a board game for Christmas. Two hours later, nobody has finished reading the rules. You keep asking if everyone's having fun. Your friend is sad about a breakup. You take them to the garden centre. You point at a fern. Feeling it now? The office organises a team-building afternoon. It's a quiz. About the company handbook. The manager checks the mood every ten minutes. **Why it caught on:** in "Mid-Life Crustacean" (season 3, 2003) Mr. Krabs is in a mid-life slump, so SpongeBob and Patrick give him their idea of a wild night: elf hats and a fantasy board game, with SpongeBob asking again and again whether he's feeling it now. The line became the internet's way of asking someone if a very small thrill has kicked in yet.
