kitty

I'm going to be spending my weekend wondering why this is a real thing.

Think you can explain it? Tell us in the comments.

Hey Mike!

You're a stupid fucking human, you made this video

You wrote a song about a cat

Because all you do all day is watch me play

Now how fucking stupid is that?

Love, Your Cat

It's close to midnight and something evil's lurking in the dark
Under the moonlight, you see a sight that almost stops your heart
You try to scream but terror takes the sound before you make it
You start to freeze as horror looks you right between the eyes
You're paralyzed

'Cause this is?oh never mind, that's just the vacuum.

Yeah, it's cute until his pet lion tries to walk across his laptop keyboard. Damn 400 pound animal! You're not a kitten anymore!

I put a lot of gross shit on the blog. See evidence here, here, and here. Oh, God, and here.

But none of that stuff compares to this.

I apologize in advance if you're eating. Especially if you're eating cat.

Come on!  This is just a lame Surprised Kitty rip off with aerobics music over it!

Want proof?  Here you go.

What do you think?  That people will just watch anything if there's aerobics music over it??

Now stop wasting my time.  I have to go back to watching The King of Queens with aerobics music over it.

I know we've shown the Surprised Kitty clip a lot, but it did give us one of our most quoted Tosh.0 lines of all time: "The only thing better than the cutest kitty in the world is any dog."

Plus I want to reward Stephanie for proving that it's hard for a woman to get out of the kitchen.

Let us know your favorite Tosh.0 video in the comments so we can feature it next week!

While we were on hiatus, Surprised Kitty became a huge viral sensation, pushing towards 17 million views as I type this.

Last night, Daniel wondered aloud, "Is that all it takes to get a million hits?"

He's in!

Grab the embed code from the clip above and spread it all over the blogiverse!  (Now that the guy who coined the term blogoshpere died, I think it's time we moved on.)

One of the most viral videos of the past few weeks: Surprised Kitty.  After spending over a month as a video unknown, the adorable little cat with his surprised paws has blown up to the count of over 11 million views.

Here's the real surprise though: It's all a scam!  Gothamist (my #1 source for cat news) reports "the kitten's surprise-while-being-tickled is a normal postural play response," meaning this kind of move can be common for kittens.

They even go on to quote veterinarian Dr. Peter Soboroff (Wait, is he a doctor or is he a veterinarian, because he certainly can't be both!?) as saying, "That Surprised Kitty is a total jerk, ripping off the work of other kittens and calling it his own.  He's like the Milli Vanilli or Coldplay of kittens.  He's terrible.  It's all B.S.!"

Alright, I totally made that quote up.  But as evidence, Dr. Soboroff did present the video above showing a cat he had taken care of doing the same thing.

Rip-off!

If you just watched the video above, you're probably thinking, Why would he show us that?  What is wrong with this man??

I want you to feel my pain: the pain of constantly being given false hope.  People say they have a video of a "Talking Kitty!" only to provide you with a piece of video "entertainment" so despicable, it drives you to wonder if society deserves to continue on any longer.

It's a cold, dire place, this Internet — this thing that supposedly gives us hope, but constantly lets us down; this electronic monster that continues to eat at our brain like some blood-thirsty zombie.

You think I'm being too harsh?  You think I should let the Internet be??  Why don't you ask Talking Kitty what he thinks, huh?

Then maybe you'll think twice.  Then maybe you'll know what I've seen out here.
