The Year In Cute: The Meeting Will Come To Disorder

by Not That Mike The Other Mike on January 4, 2009

Gentlemen, 2008 was a banner year for the Legion of Evil.  Our operatives scowled, glared, sneered, grimaced, glowered, frowned, harrumphed upon and generally disapproved of more things than at any time in the storied history of our secret fraternity.  And now, it gives me great displeasure to present the 2008 Evil Awards:

No, Mr. Bun -- I expect you to DIE!

Best Serial Disapprover: Phineas Wayne Boggs, currently at large in the Philadelphia area;

Good evening, Clarice ...

Best Tough Guy: Vinnie "The Glare" Torino, leader of the East Side Scowlers;

Ah yoo tawkin' ta me?  I said, AH YOO TAWKIN' TA ME?!
New Puppy, originally uploaded by ETRONCOSO.

Best Scheming: Mack E. Yavelli, of Florence, Italy;

I'm hatching a new plan even as we speak!

Most Disturbing: Flarxle "Lips" Xeeglatz, from the planet Orgulon VI

PEOPLE-OF-EARTH-YOU-ARE-MY-SLAVES-IT-IS-USELESS-TO-RESIST

Dishonorable Mention: Art D., Jennifer N., Lori W., Mahala K., and Lisa S. Photo credit for disapproving Bun: (I’m just not sure what to say……, by Carly & Art.)

I do so love the kitteh!! He’s only 1% evil and 99% ticked off.

2 M 01.04.09 at 7:32 pm

I think there is a caption missing, for the puppy methinks.

3 Holy Cuteness 01.04.09 at 7:34 pm

The Mick Jagger fish is really awesome…

4 Not That Mike The Other Mike 01.04.09 at 7:38 pm

@M: The caption for the pup is “Best Tough Guy.”

5 berthaservant 01.04.09 at 7:42 pm

I love awards season! This is SO much more entertaining than the Golden Globes (and 19874 times more legitimate!)

6 Maggie 01.04.09 at 7:44 pm

Yay Derbster! Derby is indeed the champion of disapproval. I quake.

7 ash 01.04.09 at 7:45 pm

last pic ’shopped?
it looks unreal

8 Samantha 01.04.09 at 7:49 pm

I live in the Philadelphia area! I’ll be looking for that cat, and we can have a tough guy showdown.

9 Nik 01.04.09 at 7:53 pm

Hilarious hover over the kitteh…totally spot on.

10 Nik 01.04.09 at 7:53 pm

Ooops, I meant the “clarice” hover text…

11 Theo 01.04.09 at 7:55 pm
12 Annie 01.04.09 at 7:56 pm

OMG Mr Bun Hover text LOLOLOLOL

13 Jezebel 01.04.09 at 8:02 pm

I am not even worthy of such disapproval…

14 Derby 01.04.09 at 8:06 pm

Thank you, thank you. It’s quite an honor. I fully expect you to continue to disappoint me in the coming year. harumph.

15 sunny 01.04.09 at 8:10 pm

hahaha Mack E. Yavelli….I see what you did there :p

16 AmyJ 01.04.09 at 8:23 pm

Black kitty looks exactly like one of our little boys down to the teeny white napkin under his chin. And he is a schemer, continually hatching plans to force me to snuggle him. Somehow the schemes always work…

17 Jorden 01.04.09 at 8:31 pm

That cat will always make me laugh!

18 Derby 01.04.09 at 8:31 pm

Again, thank you. More of my constant disapproval can be seen here:

19 Boomer's Babysitter 01.04.09 at 8:35 pm

Well, if Xeeglatz isn’t ’shopped, those are the most humanoid leeps on a crustacean I’ve ever hoped never to see. What, may I ask is that lip COLOR, though? Can’t find it in the Avon catalog!

20 Boomer's Babysitter 01.04.09 at 8:37 pm

Also, puppy mr tough guy doesn’t look so much “tough” as shy, or possibly in “trouble.” Wasn’t me, he/she says… Oh, OK, all is forgiven… puppy hugs!! puppy hugs!!

21 kibblenibble 01.04.09 at 8:39 pm

Captions & Hovertext–ROFLMAO :D
This is sheer genious, and just what I needed. Thank you.

PS I love the perfect white triangle that is grey kitteh’s muzzlepowshe.

22 victoreia 01.04.09 at 8:47 pm

As usual, NTMTOM, your hover text KILLS ME!

23 Theresa 01.04.09 at 8:49 pm

(wiping eyes)

24 Theresa 01.04.09 at 8:52 pm

“Mack E. Yavelli” snerk!
I love historical LOLz. See my “Brief History of Disapproval”:

25 lucy's mommeh 01.04.09 at 8:54 pm

Boomer, it looks like the fire engine red lipstick my Aunt Dutch used to wear..

Oh, and it looks like the Pro-to-go Cherry Glisten might be close for the fish lips.

Yeah, Avon.I sells it.

26 victoreia 01.04.09 at 8:59 pm

Okay, if “Lips” Xeeglatz is the most disturbing, and Mack (the pupster) is the most scheming, what category did the black kitteh win?

27 nismo 01.04.09 at 9:35 pm

That is an extremely disapproving bun.

28 warrior rabbit 01.04.09 at 9:40 pm

Derby? I thought you were Cinnamon! I’m sure I’ll be disapproved of by both of you, now. [slinks away meekly]

29 Katrina 01.04.09 at 9:50 pm

Tough times call for touch att-i-tudes, and sometimes cat-i-tudes. Brilliant.
I thought the bunneh was Cinnamon, too, there is another out there!

30 Marie 01.04.09 at 10:18 pm

Ah…I see you’ve laid down the gauntlet of cute. Clever and sneaky move. Well, I accept your challenge! I will endure the dangerous and extreme levels of cuteness and scroll through each and every photo!

Hah! Your move.

31 POSTY MCPOSTERTON 01.04.09 at 10:23 pm

DISAPPROVER is hilarious!!

TOUGH GUY? I don’t buy it for a minute. :)

Dan

32 Minya 01.04.09 at 11:11 pm

I think Xeeglatz is not so much disapproving of us, it’s just that he’s really, really miffed over the bad lip collagen implants.

33 Theo 01.04.09 at 11:32 pm

Flarxle “Lips” Xeeglatz, from the planet Orgulon VI

RESITANCE IS FUTILE . YOU WILL BE ASSIMILATED !
***************************
Kitty caption : Good evening clarice ~~ Bwahahahahhaa!!!!
*Rolling on the floor with laughter *:0)
***************************

Puppy says : “If you touch me I will bite your hand off ! I am NOT happy !”

35 AuntieMame 01.04.09 at 11:43 pm

You really should warn a body, first. I saw that disapproving bun, and I had to step back from the computer. Srsly.

And if the pup is “The Glare,” then the kitteh is missin’ a caption.

36 fish eye no miko 01.05.09 at 12:56 am

AuntieMame said: “And if the pup is ‘The Glare,’ then the kitteh is missin’ a caption.”

Yep. There’s no kitteh caption.

37 doxnsox 01.05.09 at 2:30 am

The second kitteh DOES NOT have a caption. SOMEONE ADD A CAPTION!!!!!

38 hingkim 01.05.09 at 3:13 am

the second black kitteh is my by ‘beeyad’ kitteh, Oreo. Found in my daughter’s Easter basket. :) Oreo is very honored to be re-posted in the Evil Awards. heh heh heh…

39 warrior rabbit 01.05.09 at 3:44 am

Thanks for the tutorial, Theo! LOL! I will have to study up, as the differences are still a little fuzzy. (Or furry, I guess.)

Cinnamon seems more harrumphy, though, with more of the look of a grumpy old British dude. Sort of… Churchillian.

40 totalee puppy 01.05.09 at 4:32 am

To me, Cinnamon looks like the faithful and
respectable butler who has opened the door to find a basket full of caroling
opossums expecting him to bring figgy pudding…

41 NotAnotherMilo 01.05.09 at 5:10 am

Yay Oreo! Is he waiting to entrap the Easter Bunny? or just wanting to get his pawsies on some Peeps?

Love black kitties. They’re quite devious…mine’s working his way into the kitchen cabinets as I type…

42 Violet 01.05.09 at 5:47 am

That pup tewtally looks like Salman Rushdie in puppy form.

43 julie 01.05.09 at 6:23 am

I think I got it; it’s just tricky. The captions are on top, & lots of folks are still looking for them below out of habit. But yes, they’re all there.

44 Kar 01.05.09 at 7:04 am

Those are such Mike hovertexts. “Hatching a plan?”

45 Theo 01.05.09 at 7:05 am

Julie — it IS tricky. The captions switch from below to above, and skip right over Lechter Kitty. My advice? Go ahead and ask him for a word or two, but expect some significant quid-pro-quo.

Oh, and ask *politely*.

46 Hon Glad 01.05.09 at 9:20 am

Web came, we saw, we disapproved.

47 Hon Glad 01.05.09 at 9:23 am

Web, was a typo, but it sort of fits.

48 skeezer 01.05.09 at 9:26 am

“Good evening, Clarice…”

ROFL!!

49 Katrina 01.05.09 at 2:28 pm

I still think the crab face looks like Voldemort. wwooblahhyuakkypoo. But cute. Go Figure.

50 Babs 01.05.09 at 3:18 pm

Whoa. Um. Bun is, like, wrathfully disapproving. I am skeered.

51 Gail White 01.05.09 at 4:18 pm

WHY AM I UNABLE TO SEND EMAILS FROM CUTE OVERLOAD??

52 Theo 01.05.09 at 4:36 pm

Um… Gail, at a guess (which is multiple layers deep, since details provided are scarce), your web browser doesn’t know what your default email client is.

Are you clicking on the “Email to a Friend” link, up there?

53 claudia 01.05.09 at 6:29 pm

AHAHAHAHA the cat… slays me… love it

54 Paunchie 01.05.09 at 7:12 pm

cute puppeh does not quite fit in this group of misfits….

55 warrior rabbit 01.05.09 at 10:03 pm

Totalee puppy, I LOL at your scenario. It is very easy to imagine the harrumphy, Scroogian displeasure of a Cinnamon butler faced with possum carolers demanding figgy pudding. Harrumph! Bah humbug! [door slams]

56 gwz 01.05.09 at 10:30 pm

Your hovertext-fu compels me.

57 Jackie 02.05.09 at 10:02 am

LoL, that underwater creature really does look like a space alien!
