The Lap Shot

by Meg on November 21, 2009

People, it’s about time we addressed this.

It’s called “The lap shot.” This image is a great example—we get a beellion submishes of people putting their kitteh/bunneh/pup on their lap and taking a photo. I think it’s time we acknowledge this pose. Officially. It’s like posing next to a log, or posing at the prom.

Welcome to the vernacular, Lap Shot.

“Thank you for my lap.”

(While pupster’s really thinking: It’s my lap. Deal with it!”)

7 Katrina 11.21.09 at 12:40 pm

Why yes, I do covet that doggie, why do you ask?

8 Queen of Dork 11.21.09 at 12:42 pm

Uh-oh. I’m getting a bit dizzy. Also, BEEP!

16 Trabb's Boy 11.21.09 at 1:52 pm

18 Theresa 11.21.09 at 3:22 pm

what babies?

19 fish eye no miko 11.21.09 at 3:25 pm

@beeeerg: Eh? Where’s the baby in this picture?

20 Queen of Dork 11.21.09 at 3:32 pm

Huh? Just a cute beepable nose puppers. (?) Although he/she pups looks like a sweet little baby.

21 Claribel 11.21.09 at 3:40 pm

He was a puppy in this pic…is that against the rules? :O

22 resriechan 11.21.09 at 3:40 pm

perhaps Beerg is either:

a) a tad intoxicated? (note the screenname?)
b) simply missing the Nuff’s which aren’t happening today????

I’m probably inkeerect, in my assessment…….

[Or (c) missing - Ed.]

23 Queen of Dork 11.21.09 at 3:52 pm

Resriechan: You could be keerect. But I know we don’t have to concern ourselves. Theo has “thick skin and sharp claws” and will do whatever is necessary.

24 ouroboros 11.21.09 at 3:54 pm

New category!

25 jenniflower74 11.21.09 at 3:58 pm

As a proud yorkie momma, this is maybe one of the cutest posts EVER. Sooooooooooooooo prosh!

26 the bug man 11.21.09 at 4:14 pm

Perhaps beeeerg just knows a lot of babies that need to shave.

27 5^^now8ing 11.21.09 at 4:22 pm

I’m with Rachael & caligirl — most beepable nose ever! Love it!

28 Nicolletta 11.21.09 at 4:53 pm

Don’t get it wet and don’t feed it after midnight. ;)

29 Mrs. Lackey 11.21.09 at 5:14 pm

Hey, if you ignore the fact that meester Macpupersons is lying in someones lap… he looks like he’s about to deliver a “Flying Karate Kick”

30 Sweeda 11.21.09 at 5:30 pm

Can I get me some of his shampoo? Cuz I know I want hair so healthy it shines! lol

31 Theresa 11.21.09 at 5:57 pm

‘Tocks up, li’l pup!

32 Raemie L 11.21.09 at 6:50 pm

Lemme try the new vernacular. I’d like the chocolate caramel swirl Lap Shot topped with rosette pawsesesz, please! Nevermind, I’m doing it wrong.

33 victoreia 11.21.09 at 7:42 pm

Nose beep!

(Aside: where’s my Caturday special?!?)

34 Wend 11.21.09 at 7:43 pm

Paging QoD… feeling faint…. room going dark…. pupuelnt floofiness spinning, beepable nose swirling, button eyes dragging me in… *Thud*

35 Wend 11.21.09 at 7:48 pm

Comes to, shaking head gingerly… catches sight of triangular earsies, upturned pawsies, and majour xtreme cuteness… sinks to knees, one last glimpse of silky fur… all goes dark again…. Thud.

36 Jess&Friends 11.21.09 at 8:03 pm

Yay to the new “Lap” category!!! Time to celebrate!!!!
P.S. Yes those exclamation points are necessary.

37 Paunchie 11.21.09 at 9:01 pm

38 Vicki 11.21.09 at 9:18 pm

There seriously needs to be more Yorkie pics like this. It makes my heart melt to see a bebe Yorkie cause I miss my mom’s. :3;;

39 needapuppy 11.21.09 at 9:24 pm

You just know that the next move is a play mouth snap & scrabbling paws at any hands that try to move him.

40 JavaThePup 11.21.09 at 9:44 pm

I am so thrilled to be able to say “i was there” at the birth of a new category!

Yay Lap Shot!

41 Queen of Dork 11.21.09 at 9:51 pm

Wend: Nurse Stef on duty.

*smelling salts to Wend. (she seems to require extra strength). Compresses applied. Hands Wend a puppy and a bunny. That should do the trick.*

(moves along) squeak, squeak, squeak….

42 Winston 11.21.09 at 10:46 pm
43 UberCuteyDoggyDavid 11.21.09 at 11:58 pm

Oh wowzza! OMGPONIES!!!! Where can I grab meez a Pancho Villa!!!

44 Nikki 11.22.09 at 12:35 am

I want to live in a house where there are names like Claribel and Pancho Villa and teensy little yorkies lounging in laps…

45 Wend 11.22.09 at 1:07 am

Thank you, Nurse Stef. The sound of your squeaky shoes is comfort to all our ears. I admit I am partial to grinning Yorkies in laps. They tend to hit me extra hard.
‘Preciate the bun and pup “medication”. Just what the Dr.(or in this case, Nurse) ordered.

46 theotherMolly 11.22.09 at 2:24 am

What the. . .that’s MY dog’s name! I’ve never heard of another dog named Pancho Villa.

47 ButtaRumCake 11.22.09 at 4:49 am

*ded again*

48 Katrina 11.22.09 at 5:12 am

Dear Nurse Stef: You are always around when we need you, thank you for your important service to our Peepdom. There has never been such an important squeak. It is “Teh squeak heard round the world”.

49 Esther Sassaman 11.22.09 at 10:05 am

I am just here to say: PAWS UP!

50 Theo 11.22.09 at 10:13 am

[puts his paws in the air]
[waves them like he just don't care]

51 Queen of Dork 11.22.09 at 10:16 am

Katrina: Thanks!
ButtaRumCake: Wake up! you cannot be ded. You are too vital to our job here to help ded cute peeps.

52 claribel 11.22.09 at 10:44 am

53 CYT 11.22.09 at 12:03 pm

54 SparklePaw 11.23.09 at 12:46 pm

It looks like a tiny little bear!

55 Rooanne 11.23.09 at 5:21 pm

OK, I understand the rackless non-cats CATegory, but what happens if you got a pic of a cat in a lap? hmmmm?
Doggies all like – I know I is cute, no let me up!

56 Sabreena 11.25.09 at 9:32 am

Posing next to a log? Is that a reference to Iam Thelog on facebook? Something kind of like this?
