A friend and I have a nightly battle of sorts on instant messenger. He’ll send me funny pictures of cats and I retaliate with funny pictures of dogs. We can (and do) go back and forth for quite some time!
My favorite site for laugh-out-loud funny dog pictures is I Has a Hotdog, the sister site to the infamous I Can Has Cheezburger for kitty pics with hilarious captions. If you’ve never visited either site, I’ll wait. Go take a look.
I actually sat down the other night (between rounds of the LOLcat/hotdog wars) and looked at the history of these sites.
Once upon a time, when the web was young, folks on various internet forums celebrated “Caturday:” a day when people find, caption, and post funny cat pictures. The Cheezburger site itself started with one infamous picture — a roly poly grey cat asking hopefully for a cheeseburger — and a desire to collect all these funny pics in one place. Thus, the LOLcats blog was born.
But if we have a site for funny cat pictures, can we NOT have one for funny dog pictures? Thus the hotdogs joined in the fun.
On both sites, you can upload and caption your own funny pet pictures or come up with hysterical captions for the huge number of photos already online — you don’t have to register for the site to play. I’ve wasted plenty of time just flipping through the doggie pictures and making hotdogs for my own entertainment.
Want to explore and interact further? You can vote on the captions made by others, or chat in the forums or via picture comments. And you don’t have to limit your creativity to just dogs and cats, either. There are pictures of all sorts of animals, celebrities, and even news headlines. All for your captioning entertainment.
