I had my finger on the pulse of the internet the other day and I realised there were two hearts beating together. When the internet first came to life it was all about the porn; the only people making any money where the muff meddlers; the most popular search was simply ‘porn’ and teenage boys never had it so good. This was the first stage, Freud would have called it the anal stage. Now the internet is maturing, as we all know girls are more mature than boys, so I think it may be woman kind that is responsible for this beat, the internet’s second heart, cat pictures.

Right here’s the lowdown, people are calling them lolcats and they aren’t just referring to cat pictures anything cute and fluffy that a caption can be added to is in. This guy has written a great article theorising that a new pidgin language is developing via the captioning, he might be a bit to clever for his own good, but he has identified three distinct categories:

I'M IN UR X Ying your Z

I\'m in your Garage

Invisible Item

Invisible Bike

And the most important, to him, variant, Kitty Pidgin, in which as far as I understand it you just caption it, I can has X.

i-can-has-cheezburger

This one is clearly the most weirdly inernety, So to get you started these are the most important sites:

I Can Cheezburger

Cute Overload

Meme Cats

And this is where you make your own.

I have two cats, but I haven’t got any photos of them. I do wish I could capture on film the next time Freddy gay rapes Eric, but I don't feel any urge to take pictures of them. I guess I’ll always be firmly old school. Porn anyone?
