Spun off from this thread. I thought it might be interesting to record my reactions as I read it, since it’s such a …well…yeah.
I think there was a thread like this before? For LotR?
Anyway.
First off (having got to Gen 7): I really like the Cieling Cat asides. They seem…I dunno, honest, somehow. Like, they make him seem more interesting. Also, some of the parts actually seem more intense in the lolcat bible (since I’m simultaneously reading the NET). Like, in 6:9…when you let your opponent when pokemans, even though you’re all powerful? That’s touching.
But it is undeniably more silly. Annoyingly so, sometimes, as I found a few of the pop culture references grating, and the PENIS GOES WHERE in particular kept jarring me.
There is lots of repetitions. Lots of words and phrases repeated over and over again. The pages tend to repeat the same ideas over and over again. There is a lot of instances where the same idea is repeated in a slightly different manner.
