I Can Haz Metallicat?

I have always been of two minds when it comes to lolcats.  One the one hand, amusingly captioned pictures of cats exemplify the lowest, least intelligent form of entertainment possible and are a shining example of all that is wrong with the internet.  On the other hand, amusingly captioned pictures of cats are funny.  Lolcats are mostly like dick jokes - You feel like an idiot for laughing, but you still laugh.

Every so often though, a perfect storm of immature humor forms to create something that is actually quite epic.  This thread from some unnamed image board (4chan?) is one such storm.  It is also available in a video version, but I find the original image thread is somehow funnier.  (via Digg)

Timeline of Internet Memes.

Is it bad that I know all of them and remember when most of them hit?  Is it worse that I’m a bit dissapointed that Raptor Jesus never made the cut?  (via Digg)

Jesus was fucking metal. (via Digg)

Update:  This pic led me to google “Jesus riding dinosaurs”, which led me to google “Raptor Jesus”, which eventually led me to the greatest YTMND ever.  I so heart the internet right now.

Weezer’s new music video - Pork and Beans.

I’m not a big Weezer fan, but I am a fan of internet memes, and this video has them in spades.  It also has over 200k views since it was put up about six hours ago.  Yay internet!  (via Digg, Boingboing, and probably a shit-ton of other sites too)

Those Aren’t Muskets! does it again with a followup to their “If Google threw a party” sketch.  It’s funny because it’s true. (via Cracked)

Two anteater pics on the front page of Digg in two days?  I smell a meme coming on.

What if Google threw a party and all the internets were invited?

OK, this isn’t exactly new, but I found another great video today from Those Aren’t Muskets! and it reminded me that I meant to post this a couple weeks ago.  I can’t believe nobody has picked these guys up for a TV series yet.  You’d think Lorne Michaels would be all over them.

It’s a true fact.

Maybe this is only funny if you spend several hours per day on various blogs, social bookmarking sites, and message boards.  In any case, it’s funny to me.

Maybe I should go out more.
