LOLParrots?

Ok, I tried to hold off, but this danged 'LOLCats' craze finally won me over to the Dark Side. It all happened when I *somehow* ended up at I Can Has Cheeseburger, the evil evil site that started it all (or was that Fark?), and when ostensibly just there to "see what all the fuss is about" I actually laughed out loud. A few times. Now, like most silly, inane, and ridiculous stuff, I was intrigued. How could something so stupid and simple elicit a laugh? Could you assign captions to anything and make it humorous (like some fellow bloggers did with creationist practioners?).

So, bored and in need of a laugh, I thought I'd try my hand at LOLParrots, cause, well, it doesn't seem like people are doing that quite yet. Maybe I'll do another LOLParrots, maybe not, but hey, here it is.

Am I the only one who finds this whole Gannon/Guckert situation hilarious? I can't imagine I am. I mean, on how many levels could one person and one situation be simultaneously ridiculous? Let's count them. Gannon/Guckert himself. How pathetic is this guy? First of all, the gay escort personal ads…
Too late now. I got 323 votes which is about twice Labour, but only a fifth of the Tories so I'm still safely kept away from the mighty levers of political power on the county council. Whew. Unlike Simon Sedgwick-Jell in the Abbey ward of the city who is now the first Cambridge Green councillor.…

So, a funny story about this. I posted a snippet of a fantasy story back in August, and enough people said nice things about it that I actually got off my ass and did some playing around to format the full story as an epub.

Yeah, icanhascheezburger is pretty hard to resist. And I dig the lolparrots. Good idea!

Oh good Lord, it's spreading... =) Is durn shaym parrots no has harbls.

Maybe you could try making a series of O RLY? YA RLY, and NO WAI! parrots.

I think the SomethingAwful forums started the whole image macro craze with Happycat (http://wiki.ytmnd.com/Happycat)

And yes, they are pretty funny. Glad you made a category for it! :)

Rabbit, thats great! I need to include some Greys in LOLParrots for obvious reasons.

Sorry for the hiatus, at my grandfather's funeral and little/no internet here. I'll get back to posting ASAP.
