Everybody loves LOLcats—you know, those witty combinations of humorous pictures and broken cat-English captions that have been taking the internet by storm ever since their invention in the mid-to-late Zero-ies—but as with any art form, the longer they exist, the more controversial they need to be to continue to attract attention.

Was looking for info like this for my own site last week - mind if I borrow a bit?

You made some good points there. I did a search on this topic and found most but not all people will agree with your blog.

Not that I’m impressed a lot, but this is more than I expected for when I found a link on Furl telling that the info is quite decent. Thanks.

The frog one is the best. It would be fitting if that was the very last of the LOL cats, kind of a statement that our society as a whole has jumped the shark.

Dude, if you can eat a cheeseburger off your dick, well you got a lot more going for you than just being able to eat a cheeseburger off your dick. You got a plethora of opportunities
before you.

I can haz cheeseburger… on my peeniz? Yes, I certainly can have a cheeseburger on my penis, but I don’t think it would be much fun. Guess there’s only one way to find out!

You know, i’m not that used to LOLcats so when i saw those the only thing coming out of my mouth was “What the fuck?”
I mean seriously, who does that kind of crap.
PS: I once saw one with Kermit the frog and a plastic shovel. What the hell did it mean i don’t know.

For the record I think LOLcats is the most sucky, cutesy furry crap ever to dribble out of the head of bored, sad stoner college kids.
But, hey, doesn’t mean I don’t think it’s awesome when you satirize it.

Oh. I assumed that it was supposed to be talking to the reader, because it says “you’re.”
It would be better if it had someone who had been injured, but not killed. That would make more sense.
And by better, I mean still horrible.

The soldiers died…hence them doing it “wrong.”
