What a liar... :lol:

They treat that sort of thing so seriously... It's a little decoration, :lol:
It's presumably a small buisness as well, so having to pay a fine, would not help the finance... :?

If he was honest and said "yeah, I copied spongebob because I thought it would be cute, I'm sorry" then a fine is fine, but I don't like bald faced liars X(. grey-ish color? down to the teeth and the striped socks, it's spongebob.
