| Funny Pics |
Funny images on the internet are almost as popular as that other thing that you always clear your cookies for and is most assuredly not safe for work. There's a very good chance that the first image you ever saw on the internet could be labeled as funny; or least tried to be funny. How is it different today from when the internet first started entering homes across the world?
The most popular funny pics today are undoubtedly lolcat images, which combine word captions (in this instance conveying emotion or conversation) and lovable kitties. The lolcat images are really an evolution of humor's existence on the internet. The first popular image macros (itself a reference to a user-defined "macro" inserting itself onto an image) were born within the forums of Something Awful. Around 2005 the 4chan imageboard featured a once weekly entry of "Caturdays," a predecessor to the now infamous lolcat images. From then until 2007 lolcats floated under the public's general radar until commercial efforts brought lolcats to the forefront of the web.
