Territorial Bloggings

Let me preface this by clearly stating that I am not a cat person. I don’t like them thar furry little devil-beasts. I like dogs. Boston Terriers, to be more precise (in case you hadn’t noticed…).

That said, for some inexplicable reason, I just cannot get enough of the lolcats phenomena, as found at I Can Has Cheezburger?

I don’t know exactly why, but these things are just laugh-out-loud funny to me. I think it has something to do with the tortured syntax that is often used by ‘teh kittehs’. Per Wikipedia, “Lolcats are images combining photographs of animals, most frequently cats, with a subjectively humorous and idiosyncratic caption in broken English referred to as Kitty Pidgin, Kitteh, or lolspeak.”

Funny, funny stuff — although, somewhat typically, the Territorial Wife doesn’t get it & just looked at me like I was a nutjob when I showed her some lolcats. I think my sense of humor must be too sophisticated for her… ;^)
