Dear Chemistry TA,
Please don't write anymore haikus about your cat or read them to us in class. I can recommend a good therapist.
Sincerely, In the back row.

(thanks to autumn for the tip on the site)

From the Wikipedia link publius posted below. . .

Nancy Pelosi

On January 13, 2009, in honor of the new YouTube hub for Congress, U.S. Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi uploaded a video called "Speaker Pelosi Presents Capitol Cat Cam" to her official YouTube channel. She described it as "a behind the scenes view of the Speaker's Office in the U.S. Capitol." The video depicts cats roaming around the office. A rickroll occurs approximately halfway through the video.

"there are giant balls for you to swat and bendy poles that make musical tones when you shake them. Like a giant cat toy, but for stoned humans."

I've been loving the new DEVO album, which was launched last week at an online listening party. Full of cats.

for who the internet has been more of a boon than cats?

cats riding vacuum cleaners
cats sleeping on keyboards
cats yawning
cats fighting dogs
cats being cute
cats being bad
cats cats cats cats cats

my non-scientific survey conducted sitting at my desk and staring into space for 12 seconds reveals that at least 53% of viral videos involve cats.

so i've decided to create this thread to assemble cat-related things...not because i have such a strong affinity for cats (though i do like the little buggers) but rather because they've successfully made the jump from internet meme to internet bellwether...

so to start...
