Keyboard Cat is the new Fail


I have to admit to a weakness for cats. Not in real life, just on the internets, where they're so much funnier. I've blogged before about my guilty obsession with ICanHaz Cheeseburger.com, where photographs of cats (mostly) have captions added to hilarious effect.

Keyboard cat but this latest one is even more irreverent. As far I can understand, the original video of a cat playing a ditty on the keyboard was first uploaded to You Tube by one Charlie Schmidt in 2007.

Next, someone named Brad O'Farrell combined this with a Fail video to create pure internet meme genious. The effect is that the cat 'plays' the subject of the video 'off' (stage).

Check out the ever growing list of videos here.
