Does lolcat talk annoy you?

[Symarip]

Personally, I think if cats could talk they'd be much more articulate and correct than "I can haz".

I find it the least lulzy part of interweb lulz. By the time I figure out what the caption is supposed to say I'm annoyed.

1. .

[Symarip]

2. I figured I was asking for it

But it had to be said. I know I'm not the only one.

I can haz fuck off, racaulk.

[racaulk]

5. d00d, my reply was meant to be funny.

Lighten up, would ya? :pals:

[Symarip]

7. I can haz just playing with you

I wasn't being serious. Sorry I don't use those smiley sarcasm things.

3. You know, lolcats didn't always use poor grammar.

What’s Delaying My Dinner?

This captioned cat picture postcard was found by Tracy Angulo in a Seattle antique store. Tracy tells us that the photograph is from 1905, which would make this officially the oldest cat picture with a caption, AKA lolcat, that we’ve seen.

The differences are clear. Proper grammar and a more formal tone was in vogue back then. But the similarities to modern-day kitten struggles and lolcats are amazing. ALL CAPS is still cool, but most importantly, she also no can has cheezburger. More than a hundred years later, all that’s changed is the spelling.

Evekitteh, we hope you got a good dinner.

4. I think cats would be more like "gimmie my goddamn dinner you fat bastard"

[Jamastiene]

8. Yup.

I think my older cat, Sunday Girl, says that in cat language every time I sit down to eat. Yogi, on the other hand, is definitely a lolcats type.

[racaulk]

9. Ain't that the truth!

Also: "Lemme under those damn covers! It's cold in this fucking house!!!"

[XemaSab]

11. I'm making a STRONGLY WORDED mental note of this

Your high school yearbooks? Your dictionary? Your atlas? Your signed first editions?

Consider them peed on. x(

[redqueen]

6. Nah... my kids are now talking that way.

I've adapted.

[unpossibles]

10. I usually love LOLcats

I usually picture my cats voices to be closer to Stewie from the family guy: "You! With the thumbs! Open this damn can of tuna before I eviscerate you!"

[Bryan]

12. Much to my surprise, no.

If you were to tell me it's a cutesy, insipid joke that has been run into the ground, I could certainly see where you were coming from, but for some reason it tickles me to no end.

[redqueen]

20. Same here...

:blush:

:P

[mcctatas]

13. It only really annoys me when grown ups use it in conversation...

my friend actually said on Saturday nite when I was buying a round of drinks "I can haz monkey-fucker?" needless to say, he got squat instead :P

[Symarip]

22. What's a monkey fucker?

Or do I even need to ask?

[mcctatas]

24. A heinous concoction...

Ingredients
1 oz Banana Liqueur
1 oz Coffee Liqueur
1 splash Overproof Rum

:puke:

[Haole Girl]

14. Thank god I am not the only one

:woohoo:

[trof]

15. Yeah, it was semi cute at first. Now I ignore it.

[DS1]

16. btw, now that everyone with a digital camera is making one

the ratio of a anything even snort-worthy to crap is about 1/1,000

[trof]

17. 'Splain me 'lulzy'?

New term for me.
I try to keep up.
;-)

[evlbstrd]

18. Exceedingly.

[redqueen]

19. You know what *is* starting to annoy me?

"lulz"

:eyes:

[applegrove]

21. I was annoyed at first but now I totally buy into it. I love LOLCats now more than ever.

[Orsino]

23. Brevity is the soul of wit...

...and LOLcats are nothing if not brief. It works for me.

[Digit]

25. No, I love it

It is the nature of the little beasties to speak that way.

My desktop is the one with the cat in a mugshot and underneath it says:
Dog startid it

Cracks me up everytime I see it.

[Shell Beau]

26. It is only cute when dogs do it.

[Common Sense Party]

27. Annoy is not nearly strong enough a word.

Another childish internet fad that drives me nuts: What is with "teh"? Why do people think that's so clever?

I fear the internets and text messaging are going to kill our language within a few generations.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

41. ...

[quakerboy]

28. FUXK YEAH

If they would just use proper spelling, they would all be massively improved.

[Shell Beau]

29. Silly! Cats do not have opposable thumbs which makes typing hard.

They often hit the wrong letters. Duh!!

[quakerboy]

30. How much bloody time do they spend

making sure they have licked every single hair into an ideal state of kitty allergenic saliva "cleanliness"?

I'm pretty sure they take the time to write every death threat and derogatory comment regarding other species in immaculately perfect grammar, spelling, and punctuation. Even if they are mean cranky bastards about it all.

[Shell Beau]

31. Yeah, you got a point!

[SoxFan]

36. My cat has thumbs

It's in there, under the fluff

[lost-in-nj]

32. ....

:rofl:

I knew this one was DU worthy!!!!



lost

[elshiva]

33. I think cats would curse more.

[mainegreen]

34. Not really. I can filter them out as easily as I do online ads and other stupid web crap.

Part of the miracle of the modern mind: exposure to the internet has vastly improved our ability to filter and ignore on demand.

Otherwise I'd really dislike the stuff.

[GreenPartyVoter]

35. Not meh. Ai getz it and it makez meh lulz.

[rcrush]

37. Only when people do it when there are no lolcats around.

Like in WoW people talk like that all the time for some reason.

[Whoa_Nelly]

38. Articulate like this?

[Lil Missy]

39. I can haz those kittehs?

[DarkTirade]

40. lol whut?
