Your Daily Photo (Some Pictures Are Just Asking For an LOL Cats Style Caption Edition)

You know you want to caption this picture (feel free to make suggestions in the comments).

Your Daily Photo (PETA Trolling-Lioness Edition)

Trollcats, new to the interwebs within the past week, definitely offensive, possibly funny. This post is my 'big cat' version of a trollcat.

UPDATE: My trollcat has made it on to Trollcats, I fell so honored. Go forth and vote my PETA-trolling lioness higher than that horrible holocaust denial trollcat, please.

UPDATE, Part II: Wow, I'm doubly honored now. First Trollcats makes me their first reader submitted trollcat, and now Althouse links to this immodest post while guest posting at Instapundit (sometimes it pays to promote oneself in her 'feel free to talk about whatever you want in the comments to this photo' posts). Woohoo! This photo was taken from my LA Zoo set which can be seen at Flickr, and if you want to see past LOL style captions, the Commentary by Means of LOL Speak tag will light the way (it's a gimmick I didn't stick with for very long, but I think some of them are still funny, even if they are already dated).

In These Troubled Financial Times I'm Troubled By Articles That Include the Phrase 'In These Troubled Financial Times' For No Good Reason...

Really? LOLCats is a sign that folks are seeking comfort during these, "troubled financial times". From this Times of London article:

If porn and shopping were the two dominant themes of the first internet era, it's possible that, in these troubled financial times, porn and cats - though not, thankfully, together (icanhascheezburger has strict moderators) - are becoming the two dominant themes of the second.

Yeah, OK, sure, you know what else is kind of funny? The word "troubled", go ahead, say it to yourself a few times with different inflections (and in the voice of different folks, like say Barbara Walters or Tom Brokaw)

I'm Having More Trouble With This BLOGTOBER 2008 Thing Than I Expected . . .

(Still working on those music reviews, trying to pick good stuff, stuff I have something to say about, which turns out much harder than imagined, but you'll get your 23 album reviews in BLOGTOBER 2008, even if it kills me)

(OK, maybe not kills me, you'll get your 23 album reviews, even if it causes my wrists some discomfort)

(I expect to blog more broadly, and more frequently, next week, this week just got a bit unblogworthy for some reason, lot's of stuff happening, but nothing I can say that'd be funny, unique, or informative)

Oh, I Give Up . . .

(temporarily)

(I'll get back to BLOGTOBER blogging tomorrow, and I'll finish all the promised music reviews plus a Proposal by the close of business Friday (business hours here are 12:01AM to 11:59PM)

What, Two Office Space References in One Day? (Yes, Why the Hell Not?)

The Appropriate Reaction?!?

Picture stolen from I Can Haz Cheezburger, truly this cat is worth LOL-ing at.

And what the hell is J.K. Rowling doing saying this, anyway? What other expanded back stories will we get?

My guesses:

• Mrs. Weasley was a popular stripper (stage name, Cherry Bush) before she married (and the ravages of childbirth changed her body).
• Harry did indeed use his invisibilty cloak to check out the female students in the showers and locker rooms, just like any other red blooded (hetero) male his age would.
• Hagrid was featured in a series of "Bear" videos (non-sex, just him posing . . ., naked . . ., with real bears)
• Hermione had "an experience" with the hot French chick during the Wizard competitions in Goblet of Fire, but didn't get past "second base".

Any others I'm missing?

I'm Not Ashamed to Admit...

... this particular lolcat actually made me LOL.

(more of a hearty chuckle out loud, but HCOL isn't an accepted abbreviation, yet)
