What's the bigger threat to the English language: leetspeak or LOLcats?
Thankfully, the world may no longer have to choose. A group of programmers has harnessed the language of the LOLcats (popularized, for better, or for worse, by the folks at I Can Has Cheezburger) to create a working computer language.
According to Boing Boing (who else?), ""LOLCode is an emerging esoteric (and hilarious) language based on the dialect used in LOLCats images. It's been seized upon by a group of people (myself included, now), and is being expanded into a real, workable, Turing-complete esoteric language (though nobody has proven its Turing completeness yet!). The LOLCode.NET compiler is now working, and as a nearly-free bonus for using the .NET platform, you can even debug it in Visual Studio."
I can has a headache?
