It all started in [this](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=8793037&postcount=48) post in the resume thread. > [@Cervaise](#): > > Oh, I don’t know. I would get a pretty big chuckle if I ever saw a resume that included something like “Interests: Travel, snowboarding, foreign film, and omglolcatz.” I had seen the occasional lolcat and not found it particularly amusing. I liked the Schroedinger one, but that was about it. I saw that post and I went :rolleyes: Oh, no, not more lolcats. Fine. Let’s see what the big fuss is. And went off and googled them. Of course I found the site “I CAN HAZ CHZBRGER?” or however they spell it. I started reading it. And reading it. And reading it. Two days later I’ve been through about 20 pages of it. I have it bookmarked at home. I have favorites. I posted one on my LJ. I haven’t left comments yet but I’m sure that’s coming. So damn you, **Cervaise**. Damn you right to hell for making me like these infernal hellcats! ---

Love 'em. If that makes me a mental defective (as some seem to think) then so be it. Well, I don’t love all of 'em, but most of 'em make me at least smile. But everyone knows I’m a cat-freak. ---

I made one of [Bitey](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v204/varishna/BiteyLOLCat.jpg). ETA: \*\*Merneith \*\*I love that one - my Inlaws have an obnoxious set of chihuahuas so I have a particular fondness for that one. That cat looks eeeevil! ---

Queen Bruin, your Bitey looks awesome! You should definitely send it in! I bet it would be a hit. Achewood is another comic dealing with lolcats at the moment - It starts [here](http://www.achewood.com/index.php?date=07092007) and then continues [here](http://www.achewood.com/index.php?date=07102007) and [so on](http://www.achewood.com/index.php?date=07122007). There some other stuff in between but I love Achewood and it’s all worth a look. ---

🙂 You’re welcome. **cbawlmer** has it right. They’re stupid, sometimes intensely so, but in exactly the right way. Occasionally you find a perfect gem that elicits an unexpected bark of laughter. [QUOTE=Merneith] [My Fav](http://icanhascheezburger.com/2007/04/12/soon/) so far. [/QUOTE] Like that one. 😃 😃 😃 And for those who don’t care for the phenomenon, look at it this way: It’s so hugely popular, so over-the-top ubiquitous in its 'Net penetration, that it can’t possibly last; it’ll burn out quickly and be replaced with the next stupid-funny web trend, like pictures of garden gnomes with photoshopped codpieces or something. So you’ve got weeks, or months at the most, before the fad passes and you can browse the web in peace.
