I. LOVE. THIS. COMPANY.
my eyes!!! they burn from all the furry!!!! how could you do that Rocketboom!!!
new world order, flu vaccine trying to be forced upon us, Obama sending more troops abroad than Bush, and you put on a show about keyboard cat. hmmm. I’m going to unsubscribe. Thanks for all the meaningful shows in the past. Sorry you got bought out by corporate slime.
Nice trolling Freak. :)
i found it
it was in more info this whole time XD
im so stupid lol
Love the Pedobear in the background. :D
3:27 LOL Ballmer on an iMac! :D:D:DD
i’m not a troll, farthest thing from it. Rocket boom used to rock, now it is, well, just a rock. Look at my page and judge me by that, not one comment I make in frustration as I leave a site I used to really like.
Ok… but when rocketboom made something about new world order bullshit and swine flu? o_O This is know your meme section and keyboard cat as a meme so…. i dont know what your problem is.
I’m sad fatso is dead. x_X
I looked to see if Rocketboom did videos on swine flu and new world order. The closest thing they did on any of the subjects, from my search, was “What Makes A Country A Superpower?” Which actually ended by saying we should all join together, as if they want a one world gov, so, thanks for leading me to that discovery. I should have left them long ago. However, I do not want to be rude, so I will remove my comments tomorrow.
No it’s been more than 23 years since we discovered aids, so it is funny.
Elle = win!
so cancer is also funny?
I want one!!!
you r sooo hot
r.i.p
fatso
nice pedobear doll
I suppose 2:23 was your gentle way of informing me that you’re married. ;_; I get the hint… *sniffle*

FURFAGS YIFF IN HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEELL
2:42
In actuality, Bill O’ Reilly did understand the concept for once. He understood that he was such a fucking failure that he didn’t even need to say anything to be played off by keyboard cat.
I want one >_>;
One video. One video. Just one video where the animal hero isn’t a cat.
I’m not even asking anymore for a dog, as I’d like him to be. All but a cat might do.
No. It’s gotta be cats. It’s gotta be cats.
I hope the cattish thing sticks to Ellie and in twenty years they will still refer to her as the keyboard cat girl. Whatever she does meantime.
wait…did this video just say that furries are cuter than actual animals??/
wat
Bill O’ Relly is a retard
Walker told me I have AIDS
Awesome cat.
See… this is why I want a cat.
Geez the girl is SO HOT ;]
hahahaha, it doesn’t matter how many times I see it, it’s still funny. Okay so are you going to do the Hitler one now? If you don’t then I’ll have to make a video called “Hitler hears there’s no ‘Know Your Meme’ about him.”
Um….ginger cats are invariably male. Did you verify with Charlie Schmidt that Fatso was, in fact, a girl? If not, is there a reason that Fatso is getting referred to as “she”?
Ellie may need to be played off yet…
HAIL KEYBOARD CAT!!
Best meme ever
Colbert ! ! !
i need the pedo bear teddy in back ground >_>
Furries are always cuter than regular Animals
Know Your Meme MOAR EPS PLZ
perv
Aww the kitty passed away in 2000? Aw man ;_;
RIP Keyboard cat!
of course, its fox that doesn’t get it!
If you haven’t seen it, head over to YouTube and
watch actual police video of Michael Jackson’s
last crap (discovered on his LA bed).
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OVjJ5wsVSLM
WOW!
keyboard cat is dead??? D:
btw, thank you for know your meme. it’s been a long time.
2:00 MAMA!
best youtube series EVER
Keyboard cat is definitely a Patriot!
she is hot
When are you doing an episode on Mudkipz?!
Mudkipz!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (HTX U)
Please! Spend some serious cash and go get Joanne to come back!! (if not, Rocketboom is doomed…Key Board Kat notwithstanding) :(
Amen to this.
Amen to Karen’s Amen.
Joanne’s got a sabbatical so isn’t showing up any time soon.
Go to the Jewish-English glossary of your copy of the Hasbara manual to make sense of it. You aren’t that good student.
O_o
There is a pedobear beside her in the last bit of the video at least. I shat bricks.
she is HOT
lol at anon mask behind her 0:57
lol i love keyboard cat… too bad all he got was a posthumous meme :(
NO one will ever play her off
0 0
-m-
HHHHMmmmmm dat mudkip!!!
I was consentrating on her east/west side hand gesturing at that point
bill o’reily failed on making a fail video by failing to understand the meme, that is somewhat epic.
bricks where shat
bill o’reilly is teh failzorz
pour a 40 for Fatso..
Why isn’t she the host of Rocketboom?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uNZAC48srIA
an amazing cat
That was totally lame!
What!!! No mega memorial for Keyboard Cat at The Staples Centre!!! Quick, call MJ’s management team, I’m sure they’ll find a way to LOL everyone to death.
Where is he/she buried? We must have a candlelight vigil in memory of this fat cat that turned the musical world of elevator music on its back.
[...] Know Your Meme explains Keyboard Cat [...]
there’s a pedobear doll behind her!:D
FURRIES NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Please leave that evil hobgoblin Bill O’ Reilly out of Rocketboom videos in the future.
did molly dye her hair black? lost some weight too…must be the white coat…everyone looks good in a white coat…which is why doctors and other fat cats wear them.
Always cool!
2:04 is fucking hilarious. Why is he video taping that?
LOLOL
You, good sir, have just made my day
Thanks a lot for this one!
I come home after a totally rotten day. Anything that could go wrong, did. I sit down to relax and get informed from my favorite tech girl and what was the subject? Keyboard Cat!
Oh the irony. (sigh)
Fat cat? and fat cats?! What d’ya got against large or small, chubby people?!!
Go wash your mouth out with soap. And then grow up …, geez!
I was wondering when you’d show up again. Maybe you and Leonardo can be tag team wrestlers trying to take me down. Am I not entitled to my opinion? Fat cats was used in the broadest sense of the word. But, I guess when your neurons fire, they never reach the other side of the synapse, which makes for nonsensical utterances. I understand. Don’t worry it’s cool. Ask the DUDE, maybe he can get those neurons to work properly.
BTW, Which kind of soap do you suggest, since you are so familiar with tongue washings?
lulz keyboard cat kicks ass
thanks for that explanation of getting “played off”. I never would have gotten it on my own.
Aaaaaaaah. That’s the ticket!
I actually learned something. GG!
haha i hate fox news
Fatsos dead? Damn it now I’m all sad.
Quack, quack, quack,
PEDO BEAR!!!!
me too…
1:48
IS FULL OF WIN
omg ;) the star girl is in the background of the meme lab. somthing to makes us belgians proud 0.o
xD
lol we use this all the time
when someone fails we just make the ‘un ch ch un… un ch ch un’ sound and they immediately know they have epic failed
Love the anon mask in the background!
I feel bad for the guy with the broken fish tank.
I saw pedobear!! :D
do n64 kid
lol’d at the pic tht said your the pirate now dawg in the backround
‘nothing cuter than animals, other than anthromorphised animals’
*furries*
OH CRAP ROCKETBOOM IS FURRY :3
She said “dungeon of fail”, I lolled.
otherwise, this video was quite boring.
ROCKET BOOM IS A FURFAG?
OH NOES
Awesome……. play em off keyboard cat.
wat.
This video rocked! Keep up the good work.
friggin wiked
that was by far my favorite epp of know your meme yet
Ya…. well.. i also dont want to be rude but… i think you’re a little bit paranoid about New world order and swine flu thingy. Know your meme is supposed to be funny and if every youtube account would talk about NWO, 2012, jews killing our world (lol) we would die from crazyness long time ago :D. So my advice is: sit on your chair or whatever, drink some cold beer and enjoy video :).
This will become epic, in time. But you will need over 9000 more videos to cover it all.
(LOL using memes)
amen
this always reminds me of the unicorn/kitten chasers on boingboing
fuck
furries
Thats what they want
Yes! Its Pussy Time (:
Lol.
0:45…i see pedo bear..lmao
in-
deed
new world order is reality, not a conspiracy, sadly, but you do have a good point, these videos are for fun, not dramatic and serious issues. That was a mistake of my perception. And also, just because some of the nwo are jews doesn’t mean I believe they are all bad. I am a gentile who keeps the jewish sabbath.
I lol’d at Steve Ballmer’s Developer dance in the background, along with Pedobear.
Cool video, bro.
Will you guys ever do a KYM on Advice dog?
omg pedo bear plushy! me wants=P
I nominate Mudkipz next!
I <3 Keyboard Cat
Bill O doesn’t get a lot of things
You are so hot. I want to marry you.
Thanks RB, you just gave me a great idea!
aww I was waiting for an epic fail near the end.
nice video. thanks
fuck mainstream newfags
OH GOD YES

RIP Fatso, you are missed

[...] Rocketboom’s Know Your Meme series takes a look at the Keyboard Cat phenomenon. For those of you who don’t get it, this should help clear things up. [...]
oh my jesus free at last free at last all my nigras we are free at last
I spy pedobear!
0:07 i herd you liek mudkips?
The news ruined it, once people get a hold of it and it comes off the internet it becomes cancer
If you have to explain a joke, no matter how much we’d all like to have sex with the person doing the explaining, the joke isn’t funny.
Keyboard cat is hilarious, so it follows that this clip is just unnecessary.
Stop it.
“Walker told me I had AIDS” Pretty lulzy x]
HOWEVER
Cancer ensues.

MJohnson thinks an inside joke should be kept inside. How anti-social!
By educating the public, Rocketboom is providing a service that is appreciated.
Keep up the good work!
no, keyboard cats
project management with more than 5 people is pretty hard
farewell keyboard cat… you will always be in our hearts

To each his own meme. Respekt!

This is exactly what I explain to people who dont get keyboard cat, this vid saves me a lot of trouble. lol ” oh you dont get it..well watch this”
lülz
This is fucking irritating. How many dullards does it take to realize they’re fragrantly misusing the WORD MEME? The term “internet meme” does not make sense. It probably was coined by some moron who skimmed a wikipedia page and could not grasp his head around memetics. VIRAL VIDEOS is proper. Also her use of the word “juxtaposition”. Two words I could do without from the tongues of pseudo-intellectuals are “jaded and juxtaposition”. Producer of Rocketboom: Your title is ignorant. Study more.
You know what word pseudo-intellectuals also use? dullards.
Really? Hmm That’s interesting. Strange coincidence.
Well I’m not one and I’m very qualified to comment on the subject I brought up.. Thanks for your insight though!
Do you know what a dullard is? People with lame quips.
The actress looks like a cat. . . .not in a bad way either. .
Get over it.
Just to correct her, I think Fatso was a male cat. Fatso play her off!!
Spaghetti Cat > Keyboard Cat.
Ellie, you are the most attractive lady on the planet. MARRY ME NAO
You should make a video about Mudkip :P
Pedobear is in the background…
1:48
“walker told me i have AIDS”
ROFL
fucking bill oreily….
Juxtaposition is a nice word.
Do karate baby.
Go watch my videos
I KNOW RITE?! dude
you get 4 stars!!
good video and cool cat !
you’ll get 5 stars if the woman is topless!!!
Fatso was in fact a girl! BOF clarified in an earlier interview we did
what i herd about you guys lieking mudkips must be true!!11
failure newfag
i saw keyboard cat on the colbert report
I hate her.
Developers Developers Developers Developers
WTF the cats dead noooooooo
DO A MUDKIPZ MEME NOA! :D
they need to do one on PINGAS
The colbert bump is what really made it popular
i would have sex with the girl in this video
omg she is so cute and funny
Dude. It’s a cat! You sicken me.
play them off keyboard cat!
i agree, fatso is great
lol i assume you saw what they did there in the beginning
I will gladly double team her with you
Did interlacing died?
The last couple sentences,you can see a pedobear plush!
So, what, these videos are tutorials for newfags so that they overuse memes and ruin them all?
they should do the meme, “Isai is too good.”
R.I.P Fatso “cool cat”
gotta like the pedobear doll in the background.
im pretty sure memes become memes by being overused. i mean, if they weren’t plastered everywhere religiously, would they really be memes?
oh MG there Pedo Bear plushies now well if that everg got out the internet would explode
check out my comedy videos and spotlight me please!!!! your show is cool :)
they actually released it and i got one.you can get one at desutoys . com
yes
They done “Do a Barrel Roll” or ” ITS OVER 9000!!!!!”
Because there BY FAR the most popular.
theres also “OBJECTION!!!!”
0:52 furry fandom you got to love it. i
ITS A TRAP!!!
Not even a nod to Green Day’s cover of keyboard cat?!
Dear Sister Spoof
They ruined the fucking meme.
I’m not sure this is what Richard Dawkins had in mind.
So, she’s saying at 03:30 that if we like keyboard cat, it is only because our lives are such an epic fail that we need him to pull us out of our ‘dungeon of fail’.
R.I.P. Fatso. D:
damn she’s a little cutie. the cat too.
nonono
shes saying if you are being played off by keyboard cat, thats the case
What does ‘being played off’ mean?
lol bill o’reily
lol pedo bear was standing on those books
you just watched this video..they explained it!….your an idiot!
I LUV MUDKIPZ
I’d hit that
I asked the question because it doesn’t match the original and authentic definition of the word ‘meme’ by Richard Dawkins.
BTW- It’s YOU”RE an idiot. thx for playin’
haha walker told me i have aids
(fatso plays)
haha MAMA!!
hahah fuck i love the one with the kid though. i have aids -plays him off-
Too bad she died…

Damn, she’s hot!
Lol @ pedo bear.
Hahaha, PedoBear in the background..

Bill O’Reilly fails again.
oh shit lolz its claude from mucho sucko
I am suprised she did not mention anything about the contest held at Attack Of The Show.
For those who don’t know, Attack of the Show held a contest for who ever could make the best Keyboard Cat tribute.
