We found this cat in the Boing Boing Flickr Pool. Bill Benson shot this photo, and the one below.

More in his Flickr stream. These cat photos have an awful lot of meme power within.

Boing Boing editor/partner and tech culture journalist Xeni Jardin hosts and produces Boing Boing's in-flight TV channel on Virgin America airlines (#10 on the dial), and writes about living with breast cancer. Diagnosed in 2011. @xeni on Twitter. email: xeni@boingboing.net.

    Eh.

    • PhosPhorious

       I disagree

        That’s as may be, but you can’t disagree with the cat’s dissatisfaction. I mean, look at it: the text isn’t formatted properly, it’s crowding out the cat…I wouldn’t be happy with it, either. It’s got a sort of “following the contours of the cat head” thing going on, but other than that it’s a mess.

  • Kenmrph

    I agree. Where does one apply for memeship?

    • Just_Ok

      Ask a French mime. If you can get them to talk. In French, the expression is “Meme chose”. It’s the same thing in English

    This one might be interpreted as metacommentary. It’s not supposed to be.

    If anything, the cat is wondering why people can’t find a better way to waste their time.
