  1. For fur­ther ref­er­ence on LOLCATS: I CAN HAS CHEEZBURGER 
  2. ps: U CAN HAS TSHIRT AT store.lolcode.com
  3. To decon­struct and see the his­tory of LOLCATS: Anil Dash
  4. The obvi­ous wiki­pe­dia entry for LOLCATS
  5. LOLCATS takes the memes of the inter­net, stand­ard­izes them with funny pic­tures of cats. As LOLCATS is main­stream (ref: http://www.news.com.au/story/0,23599,21988724–2,00.html and ref: http://www.chron.com/disp/story.mpl/business/4862013.html) Oh Noes!
  6. LOLCODE: tak­ing the lan­guage: syn­tax, gram­mar, vocab­u­lary — but more import­antly the memes of LOLCATS into an eso­teric pro­gram­ming lan­guage Other eso­teric pro­gram­ming lan­guages include Var’aq, INTERCAL, and Omgrofl
  7. Mitch Denny the­ory: we’ll com­mu­nic­ate in shortened phrases and memes as com­mon under­stand­ings. eg: Star Trek:TNG epis­ode: Dar­mok. Note Mitch Denny is Star Wars, not Star Trek — so this ref­er­ence may be lost on Mitch.
  8. Examples:
    Stage 1: http://www.nickhodge.com/blog/archives/2025
    Stage 2: LOLCODE HAS LULZ http://forum.lolcode.com/viewtopic.php?id=304
    Stage 3: Seems that the lan­guage dir­ec­tion is dynamic, more like Javas­cript than C# 2.0 (eg: BUKKITS as arrays and slots; like )
  9. LOLCODE.net : com­piles down to IL. Really big thanks to Joel Pobar for his expert com­ments and advice for all on LOLCODE.Net
  10. LOLCODE Spe­cific­a­tion is presently at 1.2 with lively dis­cus­sion in the for­ums on lol­code. And an example of the com­munity cre­at­ing a language.
  11. U CAN HAS LOLCODE?
