Hey, what's with all the misspelled words?

brilliant
priceless!
but, “thine” is “you”…
actually, “thine” is “your”. “thou” is “you”
I am pretty sure there is no arcaic substitute for “I” it is just “I”.
For the love of God, don’t use Elizabethan unless you know how. Updated, that says “Can *your* have cheeseburger?” “Thine” means “your,” just like “thy.” My eyes, your eyes = mine eyes, thine eyes. It should be “Canst I have milk cured and minced beef sandwich?”
Okay, sorry about the rant.
go away argh.
SINCE WHEN HAS ICHC BEEN GRAMMAR HQ?
Here here!
I haz a grammer. Even in lolspeak.
Teh grammerz = teh goodness. ’specially in ‘lizBethans.

Strange how you arent complaining that a Victorian-dressed cat is using Elizabethan wordy-things
The PWN has been rendered with thine wit.
OMG you people stink.
It’s ICHC. You’re SUPPOSED to mispell stuff.
No one cares about how to use lizbetan.
we chekin grammah nowz? wtf.
The replies to this comment made me laugh more than the picture it’s self xD
I’m surprised at the number of people who don’t understand what Argh was trying to say–
The point is not that the grammar is simply incorrect- obviously lolcat grammar/spelling is incorrect. The point is that, here, it’s not just incorrect usage/spelling but the actual incorrect WORD, and that it impedes understanding of what the writer was *trying* to say, and therefore teh funniez.
Basically, the problem with “thine” is that I didn’t even understand why this would be funny/why the heck ElizabethanCat would be saying that, until I read the comments and realized it was supposed to be “I can has cheeseburger?” in olderspeak. If you don’t get the reference- which I didn’t at first, thanks to the usage of the wrong word here- it’s just some random dressed-up cat asking you a really random question, and it isn’t funny.
And what is the world coming to if lolcats aren’t funny, yah?
JCat is marvlusly right. Three wrong words in fact. “Canst” is conjugation only 4 second person; I see “canst” I’m like, whut? “Thine”, informal second person, alreddy discussed; “hath” is only for third person. Whut you sed is, “You can mine has…” etc. Of course this is feyn, totally feyn because kittehs cant spk good english anyway. But part from it bein so wrong taht we can’t read it, why is kitteh spkn. inconkruous pseudo’oldenglish when kitteh is dressed like Abe Lincoln? Do i deteckt amalgamayshun of orientalist olde-worlde staireotyeps, mayhap?
Teh funniez fail here and must ther4 be suj… sub… put to construcktib anallasifs. Abuv anallasifs belies hao mutch I akshully luv you mad cat ppls.
FTW @@@@@@@@
Two months later this comment is a total WIN
Ovbiusly I ment “You can yours has.” My n00bity, let me show you it.
That’s the point. It’s not supposed to have good grammar. If you’ll note, the original cat says “I can has cheezburger?” …that’s not proper grammar. That’s why it’s funny.
Absolutely great - I had a laugh when I saw this one
hahah minced beef sandoichi
lulz “sandoichi” I think I’, gonna use start using that word
Who freaking cares if someone isn’t perfectly using Elizabethan English? Have you looked at any of the other pictures here? “I can has cheezburger” isn’t exactly grammatically correct in modern English.
It isn’t “proper english” no, but it has rules and grammar and syntax. There are ways to slaughter English correctly!
It’s true! If you want to use Elizabethan or Victorian English as a parody, you should at least cut it up the same way you cut up modern english. If the original captioner was trying to approximate “I can has cheezburger?”, they did it incorrectly.
ignor his monocle. mincedbeef cat isn’t very smrt!
Why I never!
As a frequent participant of this forum, cheezburger, I doth not find any value whatsoever in thine lampooning of neither mine intelligibilitous quotientation nor snide remarks made towards mine time duration light exposed lithograph!
Were it not for the complications of travel within the realm of temporal-differences, verily, I wouldst challenge thou to a duel!
you sir,
FAIL AT THE INTERNET.
That made me laugh harder than anything I’ve seen on this site.
Simply brilliant commentary, sir! Why, I had a jolly good laugh when I saw this!
(Bak to ICHC language.) LOLZ nice one. I liek to pull that kind of talk on mai friendz, but they doesn’t like it.
i thinkst thou meenist “dusnint”.
snerk…dis so much fun, even teh folks dat r rilly irritated sounds like dey’s hasin funs.
you mean, “i wouldst challenge THEE to a duel”
.___.
:3 Zing.
I LOVE this.
That’s HappyCat from YTMND and 4Chan.
lame.
nuthin new under the sun, sweetpea
Obvious Cat states the obvious.
orly? kthx
Wow. Some people take these pictures waaaay too seriously.
I think it could be argued that the misuse of Elizabethen was intentional, but who FREAKING CARES?
Christ.
Man, this is one of my favorite pics. Even if the Elizabethen wasn’t intentional, it just makes it that much funnier. Besides, it isn’t like a Cheezburger is a minced beef sandwich, in or out of Elizabethen.

Isn’t the point of lolcats pics to mangle the language? I mean, how is “I can has cheezburger?” more correct that “can your have cheeseburger?”
;D thinx u correcting.

Urmmm - donchu meen “This is I?”
this picture is one of my favorites. did someone seriously try to school on elizabethan english in the comments? i mean, really? you tried that? wow.
You all are missing the point! This cat is not selfish; he asks if you can has a sammich! He does not wish to enjoy one for himself, ergo “thine” is the correct term to use here.
U freakin’ win, cat.
that is a mouthfull…
Catoply instead of Monoply lol
Wow, proper wow
O fine news today, kind sir! An emissary of the Queen herself hath deliver’d unto this house such noble sandwiches, the very like of which you requested! But the emissary hath eated them.
