Cat Macros - Still Funny
Unless you've been living under a rock without the internet or any human contact, you have undoubtedly heard of a phenomena referred to as “lolcats” or “cat macros” and sometimes “oh god another fucking lame ass meme”.
http://www.icanhascheezburger.com is a collection of these pictures, mostly cat-related but there are a few gems that center around other members of the animal kingdom. Maybe I'm lame for saying so, but I think cats and pictures of cats with really obvious or bizzare or blatently misspelled captions are really funny. I couldn't tell you exactly why I think so; perhaps in this small way I'm rebelling against the blah-ness of what's popularly considered funny. Then again, these cat pictures are getting awfully popular… 473 del.icio.us bookmarks and counting, and about 251 diggs last I checked! WOW! Maybe I'm not such a rebel afterall, or maybe all it means is I'm not alone in enjoying snickering quietly to myself and muttering “oh I see what you did there” at bold captioned pictures of cats!
