Lolmoth

Just yesterday I learned of the lolcat phenomenon sweeping the internet, via a Slate article (what can I say ... these kids and their trends just move too fast for me to keep up with it all). I spent a goodly amount of time browsing I can has cheezburger?, lol'ing at some of the very funny ones there. Had to try out the lolcat builder, too. This the result.

The language twisting bugs me in regular Internet postings and comments, but here it works for some reason. Ripe fodder for a linguistics dissertation, I'm sure.

  2. Your lolmoth reminds me of the (awesome) LOL Moth blog. Nice one!

    Oh, and since you are a loln00b, have you checked out the lolcat bible? It's a project to translate the bible into lolspeak. Yeah. It's pretty funny.
