The Great Lolcat Internet Phenomenon

[Mark Young]

How do you feel about the lolcat phenomenon?

For those who haven't heard about it. Basically it's mostly about taking photo's of cats and adding captions to them from the cats point of view.

Here are s few examples of some lolcats.

For those who haven't heard about it.

Might wanna add in there "or have not wandered into the H&Js forum" since there is a thread dedicated for LOLcats (and other variants like LOL<pet>)

The good ones are good, the bad ones are reaaaalllly bad. But I'm glad I don't go to *****.

Does "I am serious cat" count as a lolcat?

Internet memes are generally stupid.

This one is no exception.

Internet memes are so cash.

 

[Bllasae]

Some are relatively funny, although the language used is horrible, both grammatical and spelling. Therefore, I am indifferent.

It's stupid. But it's also funny. It is internet.

 

[Mark Young]

Yep, that's a lolcat. I've seen the same piccie with a different caption.

I make absolutely no attempt to understand this or any other internet meme, but I find many amusing, a few uproariously so. Though I wouldn't go so far as to call them "teh awesome," I guess I will here as there's no "I find them mildly amusing" option.

 

[warpus]

lolcats.. there are some good ones, there are some bad ones...

i can't really take more than 5 lolcats in a sitting though

i voted no, because on average i would say no more than yes if asked the question

Humor by ******s, for ******s.

 

[Bigfoot3814]

I am indifferent to them.

I like them as long as they're funny. Yeah, they're stupid, but since when was that a bad thing? They're a laugh, which is more than can be said for most of the crap clogging the tubes.

To quote sharwood up thar, that's teh awesome. Saved to hard drive.
