I should have posted this a few weeks ago when Kat emailed it to me, but have been too busy with other sections of the internet. You might know about the internet phenomenon of LOLCat, and you definitely know about T.S. Eliot’s modernist #1 stunner The Waste Land, but do you know about their lovechild?
Oh yes, someone translated one of my favorite weird pieces of poetry into LOLCat. I have been laughing about this pretty much non-stop for weeks, such is my love for Eliot and LOLCat speak. Many thanks to everyone who’s forwarded this on to me, because every time I see “IM IN UR WASTELAND BURYING UR DEAD” I crack up again.
