Sad but true...

But on a positive note cats speak sms or whatever that's called.

It's called "lolcatz"--it's different from sms or txtspk. And bonus points if it mentions cheezburgerz.

lolcatz, txtspk I'd love to see a paper submitted to a professor written like that. Where did it come from? I've never seen anything like it before the forums.

Heh. Well lolspeak (sorry about that--lolcatz are the pictures) is itself something of a parody and is intentionally written that way. sms/txtspk is just people used to typing with their thumbs on phones who are too lazy to switch to normal language when a full keyboard is available. I think some kids actually think it's cool to type that way. lolcatz I like, lolspeak outside of lolcatz I find annoying, and I tend to ignore anything in sms unless it's actually on a phone. Leetspeak (l33tsp34|<) is another one, but that one only bugs me when somebody thinks they're being cool/elite by using it, when again it's usually (in my experience) most effectively used by code hackers to poke fun at ourselves.

Then we have folks whose second (or sixth) language is English but they have been misinformed that we like to use that kind of opaque crap.

I wish people still knew how to lurk for a month before posting to get a feel for a forum's culture, and would read the damn stickies.

Damn. I have spent way, way too much time on the intartubes over the past 15 years.

I just looked up lolcat on wiki, and according to that, the phenomenon's only a little over a year old. As someone not familiar with expressing himself with such bleak extremity, I still have to say: I hate it.

I hate the cats. I hate the messages (whatever they are). I hate the phenomenon. Maybe I just don't get it, but I think a big part of that is that there's nothing in it to get. It's like when someone offers you a stick of gum, and all they hand you is a folded up piece of empty gum foil. I hate it. It's so stupid, and not a good kind of stupid.

Torben

Nah, I've been seeing those things floating around for more than a year or two. They really exploded a bit over a year back, though.

Well, to each his own. They are very hit-and-miss with the humour (just like with most humour, come to that).

Then again, my sister and I can still send each other into paroxysms with "Cat fud cat fud cat fud ohpleaseohpleaseohplease" (Far Side reference). So I'm no yardstick for judging good comedy.

There's a big difference sending an sms message to a friends cell phone and posting a message on a public forum read around the world.

Oh, I get "cat fud." That's funny, even outside the main joke of the Far Side cartoon, which lends the whole many layers and makes it memorable. You think, "Stupid dog, he can't even spell food properly," and then you think, "Well, it's not bad spelling for a dog," and then you think, "Well, it's actually amazing that he was able to write anything remotely resembling a word, or even a letter, considering he has paws and therefore probably had to get someone, somehow to write the sign for him." And that's not even the main joke!

Lolcat on the otherhand is a perfect example of why certain people should never be given a soapbox or, if given one, only for the pleasure of people like me to kick it out from under them.

Torben

Yep. I wonder if there are layers to Fred Basset that I've just been missing all these years.

Ah well. That's the net for ya. At least it's just annoying.


Torben

Torben

Absolutely. I even speak/write differently depending on the local culture. For the most part, on this forum I avoid netspeak which would be perfectly acceptable on usenet and many listservs and which is much older than web forums. It's just not part of the local culture as far as I've seen.
