SF Weekly's Year in Review (LOLcats Style)

Slideshows

You’re not supposed to admit to liking LOLcats, just as you’re not supposed to openly champion year-in-review issues. But in the pages ahead, we have combined two of our guiltiest pleasures into one shamelessly superficial summary of an incredibly historic year. We hopez u likee.

Proposition 8 supporters aired ads featuring Mayor Gavin Newsom crowing that same-sex marriage was “gonna happen, whether you like it or not.” The ads have been blamed (and credited) for playing a key role in the passage of the initiative.

How about not spreading a small amount of content over multiple pages?

Horrible. Not funny in any way. There aren't even cats in almost all of the pictures.

Wow, you do realize the reason lolcats misspell things and say things incorrectly is because they are supposed to be animals. You are trying to anthropomorphize people and yet somehow still failing.

Since when did taking 45.6% of the vote count as 'losing badly'?

First off slide shows are a no-no. Give me back the last three minutes of my life. This sucks. Bad enough you stole the idea without giving credit.

Hello. I pick up the SF Weekly when I ride the Caltrain up for various reasons. Articles like this are kinda spoiling the City, not that SF is that much of a jewel. Anyone who's been realizes the SF Bay Area is one of the very finest places in this world, with Tahoe, Yosemite, Santa Cruz, Big Sur . . . but let me tell you, San Francisco blows! I was passing through and saw the Israel protest last night, all well and good. But I think in any city, there will only be one single person who will actually smile at you. For such a supposedly fantastic locale, the locals are pretty numb, dumb, deadened & soulless. God Bless Humanity!

Objection to the 'LOLcat' with President-Elect Obama: he's not black. He is half-black, therefore do not give him credit where it is not due.

You're pathetic. Sorry I wasted my time here. I promise, it won't happen again.
Comment by Yeah Right from Not SF (Thank God) on Dec 31st, 2008, 15:51 pm
F----- Post contained neither LOL nor cats. Would not read again.

Don't you see the connection between pictures 17 and 18? Both feature hack Chicago Machine politicians. Expect plenty more corruption and graft from both. Mission accomplished!
