Cats are funny

whilst your comment is very funny, it still doesn't explain the need to make them out to be chavvy. :confused:
the humour gains nothing from it.

Since this cat thing was started on 4chan/SA, i don't quite see the connection with chavs. More coincidence than actual intended chavery (yes, chavery).

Exactly. I'd say its more from "1337 speak" from actual "chav speak" and "txt'ing talk" etc.

"iz" and "u.r", "te.h" etc, are certainly not |337. they are txt.

in fact to prove my point this very forum has "u.r" and "te.h" etc (txt-speak) censored. whereas |337 5p34k 15 p3rf3c7|y f1|\|3.

Actually te.h is 1337 speak and used as it is a common typo of 'the'.

You're just itching for an argument tonight aren't you? :p It is a thread about funny cat pictures... who cares?

i don't get why people write the captions like tards.

cats = intelligent.

where the hell is the humor in plastering the images with text-speak? the very same text-speak we usually condemn here at ocuk? why lower yourselves to the standards of inferior forums for the sake of making a few chavs grin? :confused:

Because these pictures are meant to lighten the mood.

Txt speak and 'chav' talk is the way to do this. I'm not a chav, and that's why I find it funny.

Very funny infact... :D :D

I'm no chav, but I find these lingo funny if you have it spoken in meows/purrs + a hint of leet/geek speak (in your head of course). I'm weird, please forgive me for indulging in my little world.

This guys' got it!

yes but that doesn't answer my question... how does txt-speak add to the humour? i mean if it "lightens the mood" why is it banned in these here forums that you're posting in right now?
 
I agree with you in respect to txt-speak being innapropriate in most respects... I absolutely hate it if someone posts a thread "I am luckin 4 a new computa, what specz **** i get"

But this is a comedy thread, it's supposed to be funny. Now, text speak on its own isn't funny, it's annoying. But when joined with pictures like these, I don't think of it as text speak at all.
