I really like cuteoverload.com, I do. But sometimes? They just really, really need to chill on the typed-out babytalk. Much like the misspellings in lolcats. Listen, if it wasn't funny *before* an intentional misspelling, it's not going to be funny afterwards, mmkay?

Mixing proceeds apace. I'm finding a spreadsheet to be an indispensible tool. Nitpickiness loses a lot of the annoyance when I can track my progress.

Almost time for co-op meeting. I completely believe in collectives/cooperatives and belong to several, but the sometimes-irritating side effect is that they tend to require a lot of meetings and committees.

I actually did take a photo, it's the from-the-camera-to-the-computer-to-the-webhost part where I drop the ball.

Well, the misspellings with lolcats can help allude to certain pronunciations or inflections...i.e. "now" vs "nao". But generally I agree with you. The babytalk on cuteoverload sometimes makes me crazy and gets in my head and makes me start wanting to say things like "prosh snorgling" and other ridiculous things.

I believe you mean "tewtally redonk" things.

Yeah, I'm okay with misspelling or the grammar for the "lolcat effect", whatever that means, but... this one?

It might even be funny if it was actually spelled right. Not much, but... eeeeh.

And this one?

Also not funny, even if it was spelled right. I just have this image of lame cat owners so hungry for a small sliver of internet fame that they find any cute picture they can and try to think of something vaguely funny on it, don't succeed, but figure it doesn't matter just as long as it's spelled wrong because misspelling is the auto-humor.

Clearly, I think about this too much.

Because I don't aim to be a lolcat negatron, I should mention that I think this one is awesome:
