Identification notes
What is known
Found-image meme supplied for The Shadow Zone: a crudely redrawn cartoon hybrid, a humanoid female figure rendered in SpongeBob SquarePants' yellow porous skin and dressed in suspenders and a scalloped white top, with the character's face duplicated across her chest. Sexualised cartoon imagery, though nothing explicit is depicted; the figure is drawn, not photographed, and no real person is involved. Carries a profane burned-in caption issuing a warning. Heavy recompression artefacts indicate many generations of resharing. The underlying character is a commercial property; authorship and source date of this derivative remain unverified.
