My husband David and I have short conversations in LOLcat quite often. The other day, he showed me a picture he had taken of a cicada, with big beady red eyes goggling and all. “DO NOT WANT!” was my response. Translation: “Eewww!! Gross!”
The other night, a stranger cat had hopped into the little flowerbed I’d created, which up til then had included a catnip plant that produced powerfully scented leaves. Riley started yowling and rattling the vertical blinds by the patio door with his frantic attempts to register his displeasure that Another CAT! was out there in the dark. We spotted the stranger when we pointed the big flashlight out the window. There he was, caught with his huge night-vision eyes glowing, right in the middle of my little fenced-off round flowerbed.
After the initial shock of discovery wore off and the other cat ran off, I laughed and said
“im n ur gardin, eatin ur catnipz!” and added “Noooo! they be eatin mah catnipz.”
On inspection the next day or so, the catnip plant turned out to have been stripped of almost all its leaves. “Mah catnipz,” I mourned.
But it’s late now, so I really should be up in bedd catchin zzzzzs.
