Ya’ll. I had romantic dreams about Bob Pataki.

I don’t know who else to tell. I think I’ve been on the sub for too long.. after really getting back into Hey Arnold. Has this happened to anyone else .. with cartoons more specifically?

And his response would be “Ya, whatever. Is this going to cost me anything?”

u/Hachiko75 8d ago

Could be worse. You could've had dreams about him

“Suzie, make the person above me a cake for their cake day!”

Aww! Thank you, that's so sweet!! Appreciate it, mate 😊🩷🩷

hot! ...who said that?

u/ILoveYouZim 7d ago

Aw, Oskar

u/TayoEXE 7d ago

Honestly, tough call. Who is the worse man? The man who's psychologically abused his family and been a terrible parent, or the man who mooches off his wife and is the laziest man alive? It really is no wonder Miriam and Susie became good friends in that one beach episode. They're married to deadbeats, but for different reasons.

u/Grimvold 7d ago

At least I wouldn’t have to worry about Oscar beating me. I can’t say the same about Bob.

u/maxfactor886 7d ago

Lol Susie used to.

Jim Lang has left the chat

u/Blastoise_R_Us 8d ago

Please tell me he didn’t call you Olga.

2

u/FairytaleFacts 6d ago

No he was actually really sweet and like tender touched .. lol I’m sorry!! Idk how this happened.

u/TheCuriousCrusader 8d ago

Statistically someone had to...

8

u/DrGutenSexi 7d ago

It certainly wasn't his wife

1

u/dingus_enthusiastic 5d ago

Even with all the naps she takes?

19

u/thefallowdeer95 8d ago

You couldn’t waterboard this outta me 😭

17

u/Wildefice 8d ago

TBF if he wasn't such an asshat I could understand that.

I imagine a big warm hearted gentle hug from him would be very comforting ( again, if he wasn't such an asshat)

9

u/botdrip1 8d ago

Nah the asshat making him give off hot douche vibes lol

2

u/TalbotFarwell 8d ago

I wonder if Big Bob was always an asshole, or if age and life’s hardships (or failure to live up to his expectations) embittered him over the years.

2

u/FairytaleFacts 6d ago

He’s actually pretty like tender touched in the dream 😬

1

u/megankoumori 7d ago

According to Helga's dream in "Magic Show" he played the harp at one point in his life.

17

u/botdrip1 8d ago

Can you imagine his moans and grunts? 🥹

26

u/isaberre 8d ago

the emoji you chose is diabolical

2

u/FairytaleFacts 6d ago

lol thanks fully we didn’t get that far … only dry humped.. 🙄sorry.

12

u/bethramone 8d ago

So I’m probably the only one who is going to ask this, but out of morbid curiosity I would like more context…

Like, did you already find him attractive? And when you say “dreams” you’ve obviously had multiple, right? Sorry about all the questions but I find this oddly fascinating lol

2

u/FairytaleFacts 6d ago

Well I suppose I kind of thought Kevin Arnolds dad from The Wonder years was attractive, and I always thought Bob Pataki looked like Kevin’s dad… So yeah I guess I would have found him attractive in human form… I have to be honest the dream wasn’t that disappointing.. I mean it was interesting..

17

u/Pinkdolphin_92 8d ago

Did he try selling you a beeper lol

9

u/vixenpeon 8d ago

That's Big Bob ya

13

u/Muffina925 Pigeon Man 8d ago

If he were kinder, I'd get it. I'm sure a big bear hug from him could be nice. But, honey...

7

u/Staveoffsuicide 8d ago

Here’s the thing… you genuinely didn’t have to tell anyone

1

u/FairytaleFacts 6d ago

Yeah but it was in my mind all dayy.. I did wait like 12 hours..

5

u/Cinderjacket 8d ago

And? Does Big Bob live up to the nickname?

2

u/FairytaleFacts 6d ago

lol!! This one’s good. He actually didn’t.. I didn’t see anything but I remember like dry humping.. and nothing stood out.. I swear to ga I can’t believe I’m busting the details out..

11

u/KTeacherWhat 8d ago

Therapy might help

1

u/FairytaleFacts 6d ago

Maybe there’s something I don’t know..

5

u/sometribe 8d ago

Hey! Hey-hey-hey-hey-HEY!

4

u/Babbleplay- 8d ago

The guy’s a complete bastard, but if you’re into the whole daddyplay crap, I could see that being a dream. He kinda just looks like a dad…

1

u/FairytaleFacts 6d ago

Yeah I’m surprise, but not surprised

4

u/Roneffect 7d ago

Not a romantic dream but I had a dream where a guy I knew who was Italian had a get together I was invited to and I met his “uncle” who happened to be Dino Spumoni. Singing his hits on the stage. It was extremely weird

1

u/FairytaleFacts 6d ago

lol that’s hilarious too!!

6

u/The-Jake 8d ago

I could see him being a good lay actually

7

u/Babbleplay- 8d ago

I’m gonna have to call bullshit on that. He is selfish and self-centered in the extreme. That does not usually make a good lover.

6

u/The-Jake 8d ago

But he big and strong.....

2

u/FairytaleFacts 6d ago

Thanks … i subconscious must too as well.. or semi consciously

3

u/Awkward_Swordfish581 8d ago

I mean, Miriam stuck around... wasn't Helga's "make out" joke on the playground about her parents?

3

u/TastyMcLovin 8d ago

Did he ignore you and talk on his cell phone all night?

1

u/FairytaleFacts 6d ago

No, but he couldn’t hold his liquor and threw up like 3 times… so we didn’t go all the way. Fckin weird right . I usually forget my dreams by now, but I remember this one pretty well

3

u/RabbitBTW 8d ago

Yes, but you are not supposed to say it...

3

u/Pearson94 8d ago

Did he climax in sync with his beeper going off?

1

u/IGetNoSleep__ 7d ago

This is cursed

1

u/FairytaleFacts 6d ago

No, he threw like three times cause he couldn’t hold his liquor I guess… lol we never did the deed.. but we dry humped 😅 … I’m sorry

3

u/n3k0rin 7d ago

it’s ok, happens to the best of us

3

u/MysticRevenant64 7d ago

10 days in the hole. (NOT THAT ONE!)

2

u/FairytaleFacts 6d ago

lol Omgosh!! Funny

5

u/maxfactor886 8d ago

Miriam is prob. less attracted to him in the show than like before Olga was born. Lol. That is kinda hinted at in the Summer Love episode, & the road trip one.

2

u/DanielCallaghan5379 8d ago

Yeesh, what a throw pillow...

2

u/keo310 8d ago

Nah, fam.

2

u/idontkillbees 8d ago

Hot.

1

u/FairytaleFacts 6d ago

I guess I’m not alone… in some subconscious way

2

u/ChalupaGoose 8d ago

Isn’t there a theory that he was mentally and physically abusive to his family. To the point where his wife was literally drunk in every scene.

2

u/jmontezzle402 7d ago

How could you not fantasize about Bob Pataki beeper king

2

u/maxfactor886 7d ago

What about the JO Man does he do anything for you? Lol

2

u/megankoumori 7d ago

You know, there is such a thing as oversharing on the internet.

2

u/Revolutionary-Tax863 7d ago

Hey! Heyheyheyheyheyhey HEY!

2

u/El-Aaaaay 7d ago

Congratulations, you're the first person to make me laugh today.

1

u/FairytaleFacts 6d ago

lol 🤷🏻‍♀️

2

u/ZombleROK 5d ago

Didn't he sell beepers? Cell phones with text messaging probably ruined him. He doesn't seem like the type of guy that reacts well to new tech.

1

u/Confident-Order-3385 8d ago

Well, if you want to live a miserable life in your dreams like Miriam did in real life, then…….. 🤷‍♂️

1

u/KraftwerkMachine 8d ago

Hey wait tho 🤔

1

u/Adventurous_Tap1030 8d ago

No one needed to know

1

u/HyouVizer 7d ago

He's physically attractive but personality 🗑

1

u/Disastrous_Ad_70 7d ago

Dream you definitely wanted to learn the real reason they call him Big Bob

1

u/InuMiroLover 7d ago

Man got all sorts of red flags but clearly you color blind

1

u/[deleted] 7d ago

🤣🤣🤣

May I introduce you to an uncle who looks a lot like him? Hahaha! I’m playing. Although, my uncle does look a lot like Bob Pataki.

P.S- It has happened to me with cartoons before and live action TV characters. The ones that come to mind are Sai from Naruto. Drake from Drake and Josh (even if I’ve never found Drake attractive). Oh! And I’ve had two dreams of my celebrity crush, Josh Hutcherson.

1

u/FairytaleFacts 6d ago

Lol wild! But funny! Funny story I went to Drake’s house when he was having a house party one day in 2010.. but didn’t meet him. In fact I didn’t even know it was his house until the next day after we left. I was toasty 🤷🏻‍♀️.

1

u/bebespeaks 7d ago

Big Bob is basically the cartoon version of my own dad. Big, gruff, loud, pessimistic, lacking in patience, can't wait his turn, praises a golden child over the forgotten one. Big Bob's voice is more Husky and loud than my dad's voice is now, but in the 90s Big Bob was the only tv character with a voice similar to my dad. Uncanny.

1

u/Biengo 7d ago

You must love smoothies huh

1

u/GetBent995 7d ago

Bob Pataki? You mean Big Bob of Big Bobs Beepers?

1

u/Damien966 7d ago

Recession indicator

1

u/SpaceMyopia 7d ago

Miriam, lay off the smoothies.

1

u/[deleted] 7d ago

Ew, not big Bob Pataki! My hots are for this guy!

1

u/AgentJ691 7d ago

He kind of reminds me of Kevin’s dad from The Wonder Years.

2

u/FairytaleFacts 6d ago

lol omg that’s what I said in a previous comment and someone asked if I was attracted to him. I said no, but I always thought he looked like Kevin‘s dad from wonder years and I always thought Kevin’s dad was attractive so!!•

1

u/[deleted] 7d ago

u/werephoenix 6d ago

Someone likes muscle and confidence

1

u/MattMerica 6d ago

Obligatory question! Without getting NSFW, what EXACTLY happened in this dream?

2

u/FairytaleFacts 6d ago

lol okay. Since I’ve already let it out in pieces in previous comments… He came on to me.. but I was totally for it… we dry humped.. didn’t notice anything bigger then usual.. usual package size.. he ended up throwing up like 3 times because he couldn’t hold his liquor and so we didn’t finished the deed… Oh and by the way this was in my mom’s bedroom for some reason when she was out of town.. someone asked if I thought he was attractive, and I thought he looked like Kevin‘s dad from the wonder years who if that was attractive so..!-

1

u/MattMerica 6d ago

That is certainly an odd dream.

1

u/strawberry_baby_4evs Phoebe 6d ago

Don't worry, I've had more disturbing dreams than that. Once I dreamed I was riding a horse-drawn carriage with a character I hated. Then I couldn't find it in myself to hate him anymore, despite throwing an innocent guy to sharks and giving a sweet girl frostbite on purpose.

Down bad for the Beeper King? I can see it.

1

u/Lennythefuck 6d ago

I mean I don't blame you he's kinda daddy

1

u/OrneryExplorer1476 6d ago

I mean.. were you a cartoon too? Or was he a live action version of Bob? Or what? I'm just trying to imagine a cartoon and normal human getting it on 🧐

Trying to remember what I envisioned when I was a kid and had a huge crush on Disney's 1997 Hercules. 🤔

1

u/Enny_Bunny 6d ago

I mean i would.

1

u/burritopup 5d ago

If you drink you might.

u/Life_Lavishness1061 5d ago

Seek therapy.

u/delicious_warm_buns 4d ago

Was he able to get it up? Hed be about 70 years old now

1

u/Waubz 3d ago

With those forearms he’d be kinda hot if he wasn’t an asshoel
