O.K. I'm behind the times I suppose. So at the risk of disdain, what is the story of the white cat (for those of us who DON'T watch the news.)

Goooooogle Smudge the cat and screaming blonde memes.

O.K. I did + there are all these pics with comments, etc. But I still don't get it. What the hell is it all about + why is it humorous?

Humor is funny like that. (It helps to have millenials around to keep up.) It will pass, my friend.

O.K. a truism from Mel Brooks concerning the difference between comedy + tragedy. "Comedy is when YOU fall down an open manhole; tragedy is when I hit my thumb with a hammer."
