The Marlow books translated into LOLCAT

(or, have your mods gone entirely round the bend? The answer, very probably)

As scarletlobster recently reminded me, seven years ago thewhiteowl and I were amusing ourselves by writing versions of the Marlows books in LOLCAT dialogue. (We never actually sourced any pictures of cats because it would have been too much work, and anyway, can you imagine the wars about whether Miss Ferguson should be a Scottish Fold or a foxy-looking ginger?)

As the fandom has been going through a renaissance due to lilliburlero and associates' great work on the readthroughs, I thought I'd link to the posts again so that people who missed them the first time round can share in the silliness.

Autumn Term, The Marlows And The Traitor, The Ready-Made Family, The Attic Term

The Thuggery Affair

I think that's my favourite line of the lot.

It's such a gem of condensed wistfulness that I think I should embroider it on a sampler.

I believe it was ankaret's inspiration to make the Thuggery speak like Victorian vicars.
