OK, dumb question but what is LOL on their website?
Mimi, this contest is perfect for you. :D
I don't do LOLspeak. But thanks.
My cats speak better english than I do, and they can spell better too. :D:cool::cool::cool:
I never 'get' why the bad English is supposed to be funny in these cat photos. People send them in email a lot now. The photos are cute, but what is the bad English supposed to 'represent'? Why exactly is "I can has cheeseburger?" funny, for example? :confused:
Can someone enlighten me?
Would you expect a cat to speak English well? ;)
Personally, I find them hilarious, especially when paired with the right feline facial expression. But then again, my cats have distinct personalities, and I can picture them saying some of thse silly things.
Enlighten me too!
yes, I expect that my cats are more eloquent than most politicians.
Masters of few well spoken words. None of this i can has stuff.
I realize dogs are different. :cool:
See...now...the home page picture of the bunny in the party hat with the cheesecake..... Now that might have been (mildly) amusing if the caption were spelled correctly - given the general disapproving nature of rabbits.Quote:

I agree- the bunny/cheesecake photo would be funnier with normal English caption, like on the other bunny page you linked to.Quote:

I kinda find LOL Speak to be pretty hilarious. I get really intrigued by creative use of language.
Here's a guide to LOL Speak: lol kitteh :D
Oh, for pete's sake people. You're over thinking this. It's just supposed to be be humorous and cute.
:rolleyes:
For once I agree with SB. Get over it & stop thinking about what it's meant to represent.
Don't you have an election to worry about?
i have nothing to "get over" i just answered the original question, i'm not interested in painting LOLcats.
it's hard enough to paint what I do feel passion for.
