petdave -> Random stupidity: lolcats and Dominates (8/14/2007 7:57:07 AM)

First, if you don't know what a "lolcat", also known as a "cat macro" or "image macro" is: http://icanhascheezburger.com/ i have a pretty good grasp of English spelling, grammar, etc., although i sometimes ignore it. i've been on the 'net long enough to understand that writing skills are not the be-all, end-all of intelligence. i consider poking fun at typos (unless they have humorous potential as a Freudian slip) to be a sign that you have nothing of substance to contribute to a discussion. However, my recent addiction to lolcats has created a problem. Mentally, i'm now creating Pervert Macros, or lolposters, on posts with dubious sentence structure, particularly when it's featured in the subject. i see the post, and the avatar, and mentally, above their heads it says "WHY I CAN NOT HAS DOMINATE?" And then, mentally, their little face frowns, and then they turn into a mopey-looking Scottish Fold cat. The studly-looking guy with his arms crossed over his chest proclaims "I R DOMINATE", and gradually morphs into a proud, bulky Maine Coon. Or "HALP! I LOSTED BUTTPLUGG!", and the mouth opens wide in surprise and becomes a startled calico kitten. Or "WHERE I CAN FIND CHEEP WHIP?", and the face zooms in, and turns into an inquisitive tabby i guess my only questions are "do you think somebody put something in my drink?", "where can i get some more for the weekend" and "will anybody else start doing this now that i've brought it up?"
