Aifink Maus haz a big bizzee – izn’t it hims dotter’s weddin dis weekend? An teh Camelot nekst week!
o ya! i furgitid hims was sew busy dis weak
mmmm yummeee! fankyew berree muchlee, princessmu! iz berree gud!
Princess Mu,
I has an awe of your horsepitality … iffen I stand reel close to you, would it rub off on me? Be dere a horsepitality osmosis? Or a horsepitality mindmeld?
*snuggles up next tew Onions and petunias*
*Reaches intew pokit, pulls out tiny cedar box*
*opens box*
*spinkles “hospitality sprinkles” awl over O&P.*
There… how does that feel? feel any urge to clean an oven or maek a pie?
O, yum! Who new that horsepitality sprinkles were CHOKLIT?! Fank you, Princess Mu!
*O&P runs around kitchen so fast she bounces off the walls*
*leaves a cup of calming tea awn teh counter*
infakt dis is not osmosis, it iz diffusion!
osmosis is movement of WATER from a high concentration gradient toooo a low concentration gradient.
last teim i checked lolcats were not water !
Agreed, capshuner shows their own lack of smarts…
Many animals are in fact composed largely of water. Like your brain.
Kitteh is so tired he needs 2 beds. I know how he feels.
the hurryer you goez, the behinder you getzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
I is still catching up on my snoozes from teh cheezmeet last week. My hitchhike lag, let me show u it.
awl doze tymezoens u crossed!
Yeah. Was a lot.
*ponders*
Mabye next time I will goes to teh Seattle from teh DC I will goes from east to west insted of going teh long way around teh whirled.
*nods*
Dat mite halp.
did you can had Hitchiker’s Guide to da Galolxy?

Yes, yes u did. Also a bubblol pen! Which I forgetted to put in my “liquids” baggie. Luckily, teh airports insecurity peeps didnot has a suspicious about it.
Dey wuz too bizzee bein suspicious abowt your bag uv “shiny fings”.

Yabbut ifn’ u wait to collect shinys from teh bins *after* they has been inspectified, no one has a suspicious.
Except for their previous owners, of coarse.

“*pout* I wanna drive teh plane!”
“U can has shiny airplane wings pin if u is a good piggeh.”
*piggeh pouts*
“Is time to go. Is u or is u ain’t gonna behave like a good piggeh?”
*piggeh pouts*
“Well, here is ur tikket. I’ll leave it on this pork pie. If u still wants to go, I’ll see u at teh airports.”

Ai noe itz a guinness piggeh — but still!
NS, when u has to deal wif a guinness piggeh u finds urself doing all kines of things that don’t make no sense nohow.
ADN is a piggeh taht eets pork scratchings! : shock :
It’s not so much “eet” as “inhale”.
ai blowed sum bubblolz at mai kittehs but but but they didnot seem teh innerested!

Yea i can see a Physics Fail here.
Osmosis is only the movement of water from a higher concerntration to a lower concerntration till it is equal.
what we have here kids is plain old diffusion.
the movement of Lolkitteh from one place to another
i thought it was a selectively permeable membrane… or is it the same thing?
oops, replied to the wrong comment….
damn, someone got to the pedantry before me!!

Osmosis is the diffusion of water molecules. A more accurate caption would read “DIFFUSION.”
i don’t know science good
Not to be a nerd but that’s actually wrong. Osmosis is the movement of WATER across a membrane until both sides are equally concentrated
purhaps dis os lolsmosis.
*nodz
Ifinkso, u b rite Duffy!!
LOLSMOSIS! Dats a gud noo wurd! Nau we need a purr-size deffinishin!
The tendunsee of a lolcat to ooze into any abailable spase until there is an eqwill (maximom) consentrashun of lolcat in all areas.
DAt be gud!!!!!
yes, be a nerd! this is an all too common mistake. the caption should read DIFFUSION.
“Molecular diffusion, often called simply diffusion, is a net transport of molecules from a region of higher concentration to one of lower concentration by random molecular motion.”
Fank oo! Ai dint tink dis was awzmohzis!
Yep, cakeislie. U aer rite. Ai shud has seed dat. Mai eggskyoos iz dat it iz 50 yerz sins Ai studdyed teh subjikt!

I dont wanne be a smartass, but Osmosis is when the Solvent travels not the molecules!
Thats diffusion!
Sorry:-)
Osmosis is the diffusion of water across a semi-permeable membrane. Sorry, but you got it wrong.
And this is just plain old diffusion. You are correct sir.
Oh thank god someone else was thinking that!
i’m konducking mai fizziks on ur pet bedz.
Actually that’s not osmosis, you defined diffusion. Osmosis only pertains to water, diffusion is all other molecules.
This pic fails for definition of osmosis!
Ad nawt-sekund, ai dint notiss dat der are 2 KITTEHS here!
BC Minion in the smawler bed?
I didnt see him either! i thot the bottum of the bed was black!!! i had to look reeel close. Good eye Jajeh and cat slave!
Ai fott dat waz deh boddom uf deh behd tuu. untihl ai sawz an eer.
Iz dis phizzicks or Bilology?
Yesh.
I believe that osmosis is the diffusion of water, therefore the caption on this should replace ‘osmosis’ with ‘diffusion’. Because this is lolcats we are diffusing, one could consider captioning with ‘lolzmosis’.
that’s exactly what I was thinking. well, except for the lolzmosis. i’m not that creative.
I get it, lolnerds! It’s wrong term! Science class was a long time ago lol! They looked like cells to me, and the cat looks pretty liquidated, right?
Aifinkso if this was teh worst our science errorz ever got arownd heer, we would be wai ahedda teh game. It was a clever concept even if the word chosen wasn’t precise, and then the scientists got to have fun too, reminding us all of stuffs that we might not have thought about for a while. So it’s a win-win, and I say yay for loocute and for whoever donated the picture! And for the “lolzmosis” concept, which has the advantage that we can make it mean anything we want!
And BTW, if teh chiwawa goggie taht sleepz in the left-hand, blakk-an-wite bed snuck up behind teh kitteh adn nippt her tale, making her jump teh resta teh way into teh bigger bed–would taht be “facilitated diffusion?”
Hmmm! Looks like Ai waz rong abowt teh theoretickle chiwawa, as teh sharper-eyed folks a coupla hours ago noticed (but ai didn’t) that the dark-colored floor of the smaller bed izza nother kitteh!
Oh Hai, Loocute!! don’t let deh tee-ar-oh-ell-ellz bovver u!! Lotz uv us b finking dis iz funnee!!!

actually…
Osmosis – diffusion of WATER particles through a selectively permeable membrane until both sides are even
Diffusion – diffusion of SOLUTE particles through a selectively permeable membrane until both sides are equal
definition of osmosis fail.
…perfect.
osmosis is the diffusion of water. how can people be so dumb?
u fugutted “throo a semy-permyabul membrain”
technically diffusion is the movement of soluble molecules from a region of higher concentration to that of a lower concentration. Osmosis is the movement of water from a area of low solute concentration to that of lower concentration. A kitty would be moving by diffusion, not osmosis.
dumb lolcat captioner, osmosis is the diffusion of water from a low concentrated solution to a highly concentrated solution through a semi-permeable membrane
I saw this picture for the first time a number of years ago. What’s funny is that many people do not even notice the second cat in this picture. I think I missed it the first time myself.
I can’t believe some people are quibbling over whether this is the correct definition of osmosis or not. I mean, who freakin’ cares? It’s not like lolcats are here to provide you with a science education.
lolcats are non educational? surley you jest….
Hai thar. I’m a science teacher, and as my 6th graders know the difference, I think adults should too. Is that too much to ask?
Hate to be so literal, but osmosis only refers to water. The word we want is simply “diffusion”.
Akshually, thaz diffuzshun. Osmosis spasifically reffars too whater.
They should have called it “osmeowsis”.
dats nawt wut osmosis meanssss
osmosis is water,, the word your looking for is diffusion, sorry.
moar cats for science & education!
Caption fail: the word the authors looking for is Diffusion. Osmosis is the process by which living cells divide and reproduce.
Wow – double fail. Osmosis is the diffusion of water. Mitosis is the reproduction of eukaryotic cells and meiosis is the division of chromosomes within a cell.
That’s wrong too. Osmosis is the diffusion of water molecules. You’re thinking of mitosis!
osmosis is the ability to learn though touch
and transfering knowledge not the transfer of solid material.
ie (puting your hand on a book and learning its contents)
i lurked for about 5 seconds, and from what i gather, u guys didn’t take much from biology class. osmosis is the diffusion of water molecules from a area of *low* concentration to an area of *high* concentration through a semi-permeable membrane. a good example of this is your lips chapping after spending enough time in the water at the beach; the moisture from your lips diffuses into the water to try to equalize the concentration of salt in both bodies.
diffusion occurs in the absence of a semi-permeable membrane or with forms of energy, e.g. heat.
Rarely can I get my geek and my LOLZ in the same place.
all your beds are belong to us
Ozoziz onleh happenz wif wata u silli
YEah, thayt wud bee difyooshun.
Osmosis: the DIFFUSION of water
Diffusion: movement of molecules from a place of higher concentration to a place of lower concentration across the selectively permeable lipid bi-layer of a cell until the concentration on both sides is equal
SOMEONE really needs to go back to general science. You forgot the most important aspect of it which is WATER. It’s like that crappy Garfield poster: They should burn the damn thing for being what it is: INCORRECT. “I’m Learning Through Osmosis” WOW!! Where did you find a book made of water?
Doesn’t osmosis only apply to water? For anything else it’s just called diffusion. FAIL!
the sad part is that enough people don’t remember 9th grade biology well enough to fail this particular image, so it made it to the top.
duuuude! dat principle ish called DIFFUSION!!! not osmosis!!!! i hates to be teh farty smarty cat, but, kittehs do kno tehre sciences and shtuff
actually….osmosis is specifically diffusion of WATER molecules.
Osmosis is the passive transport of water molecules (H2Osmosis), not cat molecules, and it’s across a membrane, not baskets. And when the amount is equal on both sides, equilibrium is reached. This still made me LoL though.
actually osmosis is from a lower concentration solution to a higher one
Osmosis – the tendency of a fluid, usually water, to pass through a semipermeable membrane into a solution where the solvent concentration is higher, thus equalizing the concentrations of materials on either side of the membrane.
beat meh to it.
OSMOSIS IS THE MOVEMENT OF WATER!!!!
DIFFUSION IS THE MOVEMENT OF MOLECULES FROM A HIGH CONCENTRAATION TO LOW CONCENTRATION!!!!!
