Oh great, the LOLers have LOL'd one of my Flickr pics! (I can has credit?) I guess this was bound to happen, but it was quite weird seeing it just pop up on the LOLnet. Oh, and helloooo Mechazens!

Hey, at least they credited you (at the bottom, a link!). I've seen tons of cases where they only credit the lolbuilder user. Bad Netizen!

I just emailed them and they credited- not like I was in a huff or anything, but that pic in particular has gotten 'round a lot.

I agree with ethylene.

But goddamnit, I think in LOLcat (it's hilarious to mutter in lolcat at work) sometimes and I can't struggle though those comments.

I thought that sink looked familiar! But then I thought, right, it's the same picture, from all of the internets, it's the same picture that I know, right.

Well, how 'bout that. It IS the one I know.

Hah, ditto sperose. I occasionally make nonsequitur comments in lolcat around people I'm comfortable with to the point that my grasp of formal grammar seems to be disintegrating, but those comments give me a headache.

I often peruse icanhazcheezburger when I have slack time at work, and enjoy it thoroughly, but reading the comments usually leaves my brain feeling like it's being slowly pushed through a fine mesh strainer.

But that's a really good picture, mb.
