I made this because you all wanted it.

[–]SRS270 19 points20 points ago

...and for the karma? just a little bit?

[–]Pauls2theWall 3 points4 points ago

Well I reposted twice (slightly different variation) and got no love, so idk.

[–]SRS270 7 points8 points ago

The first step is admitting you have a problem.

[–]Pauls2theWall 3 points4 points ago

Social media anxiety?

[–]SRS270 12 points13 points ago

Karmarexia.

[–]Epicon3 16 points17 points ago

[–]Pauls2theWall 2 points3 points ago

Edit: Totally relevant! I get it now. Very funny.

[–]elbruce 1 point2 points ago

DIABEETUS* not "DIABEETEEZ."

[–]Pauls2theWall 5 points6 points ago

I agree and did change it, I was basing it off the can I haz cheezberger cat which uses awkward spelling.

For your pleasure.

[–]twhiz 19 points20 points ago

This further proves I have no original thoughts. Thanks Reddit.

[–]TheGeneralGrievous 0 points1 point ago

I like to think it means that I'm funny, I just get there last.

[–]pamaci 9 points10 points ago

I knew it, I knew it, I FUCKING KNEW IT. I clicked the link in Alien Blue, and as this shitty phone is taking forever to load I'm sitting at my table saying out loud, "Does your cat have Diabeetus? Okay, top comment, I know you're going to be a reference to Diabeetus you mother fucker, let's get it over with" and BAM. Fucking Diabeetus.

[–]kampfy3 1 point2 points ago

Same here. Let's be honest, it was a borderline inevitability.

[–]Pmall3535 4 points5 points ago

I wonder if the OP is Wilford Brimley? We look like our pets right?

[–]manuel_robot_cleaner 2 points3 points ago

Ice cream and apple pie can do that to a man.

[–]okaythisisit 36 points37 points ago

This is what I came to say.

[–]SanchoPandas 31 points32 points ago

So say we all.

[–]somepoorsap 26 points27 points ago

I was about to press ctrl f to search for diabeetus when I was punched in the face by the top comment.

[–]Hyetal 8 points9 points ago

Oh come on. Don't.

[–]MrPartridge 1 point2 points ago

This is what I came to say.

I already knew DIABEETUS would be the top answer.

[–]JayGryph 2 points3 points ago

I knew I couldn't be the first to post this, but I was damn sure hoping it would be the top comment. Hooray for you, ya quickfingered diabeetus distributor.

[–]xaudionegative 2 points3 points ago

You son of a bitch.

[–]gaystraightguy 8 points9 points ago

Of all the times I've wanted to be first to say "DIABEETUS," I've only ever been first once. Upboat for spoiling my fun... again.

[–]tomahto33 1 point2 points ago

[–]DenominatorX 1 point2 points ago

Yep, win.

[–]lawdog22 0 points1 point ago

I ain't no fan of diabeetus

[–]littlemusicteacher 0 points1 point ago

...'cause it's the right thing to do, and the tasty way to do it.

[–]CargoCulture 0 points1 point ago

I came for this and was not disappointed.

[–]CosmaiOwl 0 points1 point ago

Wow, clicked on the link to comment this, but... already taken. Haha!

[–]ChuckYeah 1 point2 points ago

Does it make me a bad person for laughing whenever I hear diabetes?

[–]moxiecontin714 12 points13 points ago

My dad has crippling (literally, he is crippled) diabetes (caused by Agent Orange in Vietnam, no less... America fuck yeah?) and I laugh. So. You have my dad's permission to laugh.

[–]ChuckYeah 4 points5 points ago

Yay! Clear conscious!

[–]Rae_the_Wrackspurt 0 points1 point ago

Damn. That was the first thing I thought when I saw this. And now I feel unoriginal :(

[–]Talonn 0 points1 point ago

I hope everyone came here for this exact comment

[–]donnie_dorko 1 point2 points ago

We did.

[–]pumpkindog 0 points1 point ago

just dropped in to upvote the top comment which was of course this

[–]gawright87 0 points1 point ago

As soon as I saw the picture, I just knew this had to be the top comment.

[–]Kupkin 0 points1 point ago

Scumbag Kupkin WANTS to downvote you because you beat her to the comment she wanted to make... Good Girl Kupkin Upvotes you because you made the comment she wanted to make.

[–]Radioprune 61 points62 points ago

Is that Kyle!?? Or was this stolen from my friend's Tumblr account? http://brindledkisses.tumblr.com/

[–]preciouses[S] 40 points41 points ago

He's mine! Be jealous :)

[–]impetergraves 9 points10 points ago

That pillow is in a picture on the tumblr.

Either OP stole tumblr person's living room decor, or OP is actually legit.

[–]catvllvs 6 points7 points ago

LOL - that's an even more "special" shot.

[–]Radioprune 3 points4 points ago

This is legit, and now Kyle's reddit famous! Enjoy that sweet sweet karma!

[–]Jackdilla 7 points8 points ago

These needs more upvotes. You're friend Kyle has a pretty cool Tumblr btw

[–]Epicon3 6 points7 points ago

Probably stolen.

[–]Cabooseman 0 points1 point ago

You really think someone would do that?

[–]vulpesvulpes_ 29 points30 points ago

Ahh yes, the beetus is strong in this one. I still think he's adorable regardless of the derp :)

The sideways ear just makes it so much better.

[–]GoldenGoat 1 point2 points ago

The expression reminds me a bit of [10] guy.

[–]iggycat 1 point2 points ago

Is he as big a goof as he looks, or is it just the interesting markings? I wish my cats looked that silly, they make me laugh, but he really makes me laugh. In fact maybe I should just ask you to send me pictures of him when I am having a bad day.

[–]CultFusion 1 point2 points ago

Your cat looks like Dragon from The Secret of Nimh.

[–]jimmy2cats 1 point2 points ago

This is the first cat I have ever seen that scared me shitless until it made me say awww...

Awww, I think he's a cutie! :)

[–]YellowF3v3r 0 points1 point ago

I imagine this cat to be the equivalent of an old man, drunk and out of work hiding in a street corner. Eyes wide open as a light is shone upon him. Incoherent thoughts run through his mine while a lone policeman prepares to take him away to safety.

[–]JDP4812 0 points1 point ago

It's ironic how your name is "precious"es

[–]heribr 0 points1 point ago
