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? :(

	My cat eats the hell out of my house plants. Especially when he thinks I'm not paying enough attention to him. Asshole cat. I wish he ate vegetables. Hmph. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Noelle just destroyed my mom's cactus (that didn't have stickers) and shamrock plants because she was bored. The cactus looked like she'd just cut it off with a knife. Apparently plants taste better. Same cat that likes Teddy Grahams for what it's worth and runs away from rodents. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	I know the feeling well. God, putting together cat furniture should not be this hard, damn it! I'm taking it back to Walmarts because I didn't have the correct number of pieces and ended up some of the tent half shredded trying to take it apart. Dogs have to be easier. (Reply to this)(Parent)

One of my cats eats my Christmas cactus, to the point that I had to give it back to my mom to protect it from the cat. Now, every time I visit and bring the cats, we have to remember to close the door to the room the Christmas cactus is in, because she will, I shit you not, suss it out and eat it every time. Never mind the dozen other houseplants, never mind the specially planted pot of oat grass for the cats, she will find and destroy that poor Christmas cactus.

	It's funny isn't it? How they choose just certain plants. Of course Noe was trying to eat the philadenron until we moved it. We didn't want her die. They're crazy little fuckers, those cats. And for some reason, we love them. (Reply to this)(Parent)

	Holy crap, your icon. Not so much down with cats as down with leaving my door open while I'm at school. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Your cat just does it for the lulz? (Actually that explains a lot about cats in general.) (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	She — she does. Oh God, she probably knows all the memes before me! (Reply to this)(Parent)
