once again a trend slips past me
Bob Juch's "I can haz cheezburger" avatar prompted me to do a little online investigating, and I have discovered the world of "lolcats". More than that, I've even found a site where the Bible is being translated into "lolcatspeak". For instance, the Ten Commandments rendered into "lolcatspeak" looks like this:
1 Then Ceiling Cat spoked all them werds:
2 I iz Ceiling Cat An I iz Top Cat, An I broughted u out of hawt lend wit no cheezbrgrs for hard werk at all
3 No can has other ceiling cat!! U gotz other Ceiling Cat, I shoot yous wit mah lazer eyes.
4 If u try be Ceiling Cat of any of mai creayshunz up in floaty skai, down in erth or in watr or I shoot yous wit mah lazer eyes.5 If u think faek Ceiling Cat iz Ceiling Cat, I mek u ded An ur children ded An ur children-children ded, for being stupid.6 If not I wuv u An all ur childrenz-childrenz-childrenz!
7 U sez Ceiling Cat bad, I shoot yous wit mah lazer eyes, for I dun liek it. Srsly.
8 Remembur caturday An keep holy.9 U werk 6 dais An finish werk, K?10 Caturday, u no werk. U An all ur peepz go wrship me.11 I maded heavenz An erth An see An the stuff that does teh funney hoppey stuffz in An on it - so I make it holy cuz I no werk.
12 Bez u good to papa An mama so u has long lief.
13 U no mek peepz ded!
14 U no mek sexxes wit other gurlz or menz than ur wief (so no awsum treesum alowed!).
15 U no tek stuffs for free if not getz for free.
16 U no tell bad stuff about ur neibor.
17 U no wantz neibor stuff! No wief, no gurlz, no menz, no animulz, NO BUKKITZ! NOT YOURS.

Hmmm....
Maybe I can get my youth group to memorize verses from this version with more success than the NIV version we are using now.

Jeff said that the "I can haz cheezburger" cat just died. I don't know if this is a urban myth.
My girls love the cats.
I don't know if you saw my post from a few weeks ago, here is a link to the LOL Cat Bible:
http://www.lolcatbible.com/index.php?title=Genesis_1
I like how they call "God" the "Ceiling Cat."

FWIW, I think, hey, maybe it's a little wacky but it does get some people who would never read the Bible at all to take in a verse or two, maybe something will stick. I prefer the NIV, sure, but I think the LOLCat translation is amusing. I like looking up my favorite verses to see what they are in lolcat.
