LOL Cats

I wish I could say that my humor has moved beyond that of a 12 year old, but it hasn't. I find a good LOL cat hilarious. That may be because I hate cats, but that's beside the point.

This whole thing started one afternoon in class with Lisa. She was looking at a classmate's daughter's blog and her "LOL cat" pictures that she made herself. She was showing me them rather amused and I tried explaining to her that the pictures this girl had posted were not quite the same thing as a regular LOL cat. She didn't understand, and so in the middle of class, I was trying to explain that a LOL cat doesn't really have a point and makes fun of internet grammar, both things the girl's blog did not do. I Googled LOL cats then, as both of us had our laptops (a big mistake for the easily distracted), and showed her the following picture:

She stifled a laugh. Meaghan, overhearing our conversation, leaned over and whispered, "Do invisible bike! Do invisible bike!" Lisa put in a search for "invisible bike," and at that point, paying attention during the rest of class was hopeless.

The two of us spent the next hour Googling LOL cats. I'm pretty sure Nick shot us a look that said we should not be laughing at ridiculous pictures of cats in class. I sent my mom this one that afternoon (which she said was cute, but probably wasn't nearly as amused as Lisa, Meaghan and I were):

A little while back, I sent Arran this one. I'm not sure why. I thought it was funny at the time. It kind of reminded me of the cheeseburger one. I seem to like the LOL cats with food.

And you're all probably wondering why I am writing a post on something that happened months ago and that really isn't funny to anyone else except Lisa and I. Because I saw something today that was the ultimate in making me LOL thinking about that day in class:
