The idea of seeing a scammer try to understand LOLCat-speak is hilarious.

It's only 6:30 in the morning here but I know that nothing that happens for the rest of the day will be as funny as that one line. What do I have to look forward to? I'm going back to bed.

You've got a live one there. WTF is he thinking? "Oh, damn, I've been trying to scam a cat. Maybe I can get her to go fetch her owner." What a maroon.

OTOH, he doesn't understand cats very well if he thinks that cats have owners.....

I think you should be an evil LOL cat, as in "I has cursed mai ownerz sowl!!" This lad could be one of the more superstitious ones so you can then talk about how you don't like people who mess with you and that you're starting to not trust the lad. Threaten to throw a few curses his way as well....

my belly hurts from laughing. Brilliant stuff Smile

.
After reading this, I looked for a lolcat translator.
I had a spare bait waiting to bite. I simply input my text into the translator
and sent it to the bait.

It's really wonderfull stuff. I get good responses. My lad is trying to
stay on script, but will be driven to insanity by me Twisted Evil

Thanks for the good fun and Idea Very Happy

I laughed til a bit of wee came out...

I hope you can keep him on for a bit. Perhaps you could send a paw print as proof of identity.

You should mention that you are excited about how when your owner gets back he's going to take you out for a walk, then ask him if it's strange for a person to take their cat out for a walk. I think it'd be funny to drop occasional hints like that, and mention you love to eat kibble, etc.. heh

Posted: Fri Feb 20, 2009 6:40 pm

BAHAHAHAsnortAHAHAHAHAAA!!!!

This is one of the funniest funny-talk baits I've seen. GREAT job!

There's a comic strip called Pearls Before Swine, which has these crocodiles that speak in a very unique form of broken English. It's hilarious! I've considered doing a bait using that language before...now you've inspired me.

Bait using Croc-ese coming up!

Posted: Fri Feb 20, 2009 7:24 pm

That is great sunshine. It shows that lads will try to scam any<strike>one</strike> thing... Laughing

NB I know someone who had a credit card sent to their cat. Shocked

Posted: Fri Feb 20, 2009 7:45 pm

And people leave inheritances to their cats and dogs. As well as strangers on the internets.

sunshine this is teh funneh! i can haz pusseh scammer?

ps ps ps: He probably means the owner of the house. He thinks you're renting or squatting.

I thought it'd be "kitteh b8er", but never mind...

We've seen replies now from cats, horses, elephants and dragons, and IIRC someone once replied "I am a plank of wood". Are there any other baits from the natural world?

Posted: Fri Feb 20, 2009 7:50 pm

I've baited as a dead person. One lad asked me what it was like to be dead.

Posted: Fri Feb 20, 2009 7:52 pm

Has there been a bait from a crocodile yet? Because I just launched a few...I hope I get some "bites". Laughing

Also, Sunshine, I hope you don't mind if I shamelessly steal your idea. I've been intrigued by lolcat speak since I first saw it. I hadn't thought of using it for a bait, but it's just so perfect. I found a few lolcat translators online - lolcat baits launched!

Funniest bait I've ever seen! Ah man, the lolcat pic is just gold, as is the part about the lad accepting that you're a cat. This is epic.

Awhile back I got bored of the usual baits I've been doing and I found this translator:

http://www.cs.utexas.edu/~jbc/home/chef.html

Its got several things from jive to swedish chef to valley girl etc.
so I sent this email:
Hello!
How are you? My name is Sven Anderssen. I am a Chef and I am from Sweden. I received your email and I am very interested in doing business with you. I am very happy to win your lottery. How can I get my winnings?
For your information, I am a chef in a four star hotel. I cook lobster, chocolate moose, and other cultural foods.
Thanks again for your email. I hope to hear from you soon.
Best Wishes
Sven Anderssen

Which came out translated like this:

Hellu! Hoo ere-a yuoo? My neme-a is Sfee Underssee. I em a Cheff und I em frum Svedee. I receeefed yuoor imeeel und I em fery interested in dueeng booseeness veet yuoo.

ROFLAMAO Sunshine! This was hilarious. Now my office mates know I am not doing any work. I had to scramble to cover up. But this made my crummy day go all right again! I hope you don't mind if I selfishly steal it.

Posted: Fri Feb 20, 2009 11:09 pm

I'm so pleased this tickled everyones funny bone Smile

I love the idea of chatty crocodiles as well. Please feel free to steal this modality.

My lad has gone a bit quiet so I have given him a poke thusly:
