Misanthrope Overload?
Ah, Cute Overload. A site that posts pictures of cute animals, what could people possibly wank about there? As the wiki shows, plenty.

I think Meg, the blogger, loves poking the crazies. One of the most reliable sources of "commentroversy" has been her "Cats n Racks" series. Yesterday she posted a video of a cat kneading some boobies with the hopeful tag "Nancy, it's a good thing you brought this to our attention, we've been just starved for commentroversies." Sadly, the commenters behaved themselves and mostly filled the comments with anecdotes about cats kneading soft squishy objects such as nads, ouch.

Meg would not be denied her wank, though! Clearly she had to bring out something NEW, something GUARANTEED to send her readers into apoplexy.

So today she posts... A HUMAN BABY.

*ominous chord*

263 comments so far, including the following gems:
She almost made the worst mistake of her life: Good Gods I was about to send a link to cuteoverload to someone, thank goodness I checked in first. BABIES NEED NOT APPLY.

You don't understand what your blog is about Meg! I DO: human babies are not what cute overload is about!

Whereas animals are completely silent and made of plasticine: Ugh, what's with all this worshiping at the altar of the baby? Babies are not cute, they're noisy and leak fluids. Do not want!

Uhhhh...: When I look at human babies, I just imagine the adult they will grow into... but puppies and kitties, etc., are babies forever!

I also love this comment where someone ponders changing their dissertation.

And finally, some pwnage:
human babies are not cute. if this is to be a regular occurrence, everyone i know who goes to this site will stop, including myself.

[Well, I can already tell how much we'd miss you... - Ed.]

Pass the pa-sickies.

Edit: HT to dragonfangirl. cf_hardcore cheers the brave commenters for speaking truth to power, or something. What's wrong with the word tummy? :(

	SRSLY. I love my cats, but they will never stop needing a clean litter box. I will never stop having to feed them. And they will never, ever, stop barfing on the carpet. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	They never barf on the easy-to-clean linoleum, do they? It's some kind of genetic predisposition. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Seriously. I'll hear my dog horking in the kitchen and come running just in time to watch him stretch his head deliberately over the hall carpet to puke. It's like he has to make me miserable too when he doesn't feel good. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

At least the noise give you some warning, though. I've managed a couple of time to pick up a horking cat and put them on something I would much rather they spew all over than whatever it was they were on when I heard them. But still, I think they do it just 'cause they can. My oldest cat really likes to eat salad greens and asparagus, which tend to make her upchuck. WTF, CAT, CATS DON'T EAT VEGETABLES!

	WTF, CAT, CATS DON'T EAT VEGETABLES! Dude, try telling that to my cat. Whatever Mommy's eating, that's what he wants. "No, you can't have Cheetos! And stop trying to stick your head in my Pepsi glass!" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	I stayed at a friend's house last night. His cat not only tried to eat my (very spicy) curry, but also had a go at my beer. I mean, I thought my cat's taste for small-furry-squeaky things was bad enough, but cats should have more class than to eat leftover post-pub takeaway. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
