The Kittens / Bale mashup is highly entertaining! The original lasted all of three seconds on my screen.

She is so enthusiastic I can only assume she isn't a member here.

At first I was all "WTF?!" Then I chuckled. Then a creeping feeling of inexorable dread washed over me and I began to despair of the world and the future and I knew, in the core of my shivering, embattled soul, that the universe was cold and empty except for hideous, immense, eternal beings who do not notice our existence and will destroy us without a thought like gods of old, Ba'al, Chalmecatl and Wodan, who people tried to appease with human flesh. Then the video ended and I felt better. I think I'll go have a cupcake now. Mmmm... cupcakes.

In the case of the kittens/Bale mashup, I'm in complete agreement with Bale. I want that kid off my fucking internet.

Then why do they keep walking in front of my monitor to prevent me from seeing it?

Oh yes, she's the broadcaster fired by LOLcats for saying "bao wow bao wow chica!" in the video, without first getting licensing permission from Michael Jackson, Rihanna, and Manu Dibango.

It's a gentle reminder to their staff not to be distracted from their primary responsibilities.

I'm surprised by the hate, I thought it was cute, when I saw it last week.

Cute. I laughed.
Also, WTF is wrong with you people?

I had that exact same KITTENS book when I was a wee bairn and my older brother threw it out, along with a bag of my most beloved stuffed animals. Is there any punishment suitable for such a crime?

I have cassette tape recordings I made at that age, and I've listened to them recently. Gotta say... for all of you who are going on about how annoying she is? If you went back in time you might just be surprised to discover you weren't much different. Little girls in front of a recording device are the living EMBODIMENT of all caps, people. It's their *job*.

I liked the pissing sound effect too. That was a nice detail.

Oh, I know I was annoying, up until I was 25 or so. It's a miracle someone didn't push me off a bridge.
