Wut teh F&^% is dis?
There’s much about the Internet that really just sort of passes me by. It’s either not in my personal radar, or I just don’t get it.
Such a thing is lolcat. I’ve seen it all over the place and I really just don’t understand it. There’s a Wikipedia entry, there’s a popular blog, everyone seems to be using it.
I’m a bit of a purist when it comes to the English language; I don’t like to see adulterations of it, because they just seem dumb to me. It gets me in trouble sometimes. It makes me look like an old fuddy-duddy most of the time. But Mr Davidson and Mr Johnson would be proud of the stand I’m taking.
I suppose that lolcat is just an extension of street-speak, part of the ever-evolving, living language that we use. I do mourn the passing of proper English though.
