I’ve been following the keyboard cat meme carefully, waiting for the perfect video, and I think this is it: a young man’s parents walk in while he’s taping himself crying on his webcam for his YouTube channel, and his father shares with him the truth about life. Wait for it…
That dad should go door-to-door helping vloggers. (Via BuzzFeed, but thanks to Charles for sending this as a tip a week ago, whoops.) (Runner-up for best keyboard cat: Haley Joel Osment On Walker, Texas Ranger, which only doesn’t make the cut because the clip’s popularity on Conan pre-dated YouTube by like 10 years.)

I have so many questions about that video! Just two actually. Why would that kid post that video? It seems like a case of bad idea jeans to me but whatev. Also, how cute is keyboard cat?
Probably to prove to his dad that the Internet understands him.
…whoops.
He sure showed him. Now Dad will see. Now everyone will see. Keep this kid away from the arsenal. (not the soccer team, although everyone should stay away from soccer)
seriously though, soccer sucks
Hello, my new favorite thing
Dad speaks the truth.
And that Haley Joel Osment clip will never not be funny.
All eternity is very long time to be an ass of myself.
this might be the world’s funniest and most
intervention of all time.

Where are your goddamn brains, boy?
This one made me laugh until I cried, but I still think my favorite Keyboard Cat is the Glenn Beck guest passing out.
this dad is the only sane person left in reality tv land.
The best part is, he’s crying because the San Jose Sharks lost to the Anaheim Ducks in the playoffs. So we don’t even have to feel sorry for him!
They were totally talking this guy from the edge.
i almost cried laughing at this. i did pee myself laughing at this.
… Mr. Jackman?
What is this amateur night?
Not anymore. Now it’s
night.
in my humble opinion, the best one is where the kid tells his mom he’s an atheist and then she’s all WELL YOU AREN’T GETTING A GODDAMNED THING FOR CHRISTMAS!!!!
this one is just sad. he’s got a red fan in his bedroom, ugh
absolutely the best.
one of the best posts in weeks on here. i’m crying with so much ):) right now!
I like this one.

This one is also good: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qAepgZ5iM5k
Wow, this is amazing. Can this dad go talk to all the lame vloggers in the world out there?
Vloggers, shit, I’d pay $1.99 a minute for Dad to give me a wakeup call (and a wakeup call) at 7 am sharp every morning!
keyboard cat, a nation turns its lonely eyes to you
this made me spit out my drink. his dad wins at life.
This is the best one. I think this was the first keyboard cat post that utilized the squinting cat eye cuts.
amazing.
I sent that link to tips like a week ago. Check this one out: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pQ27kmerqP0

I liked Keyboard Cat before he sold out
Can anyone plz link me to this kids actual account.
Keyboard cat?
This is the best editing I’ve seen in a Keyboard Cat yet – fantastic.
Also dig this one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yp6U_5qEE0Y
The best part is when K.C. “primes the pump”. That’s a deep meta-laugh right there.
I also love the one with the boy who tells his parents he has become an atheist: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eyauGeRa5T0

The Best Dad of All Time?
YAY FOR TEENAGE ANGST
Am I the only one that doesn’t get this keyboard cat stuff? I mean the clip of the cat itself is kinda funny, but whats with all the videos that edit the cat into them? They don’t make any sense. Anyway, I wish more dads were like that dad.
You would get along great with my mom!
Just kidding. I think it’s cute. “whats with all the videos that edit the cat into them?” Lols!
what are you even talking about?
nuthin’, CHILL, relax, everything’s cool recordingDR. I was trying to be nice ffs!
<== see?
i still dont understand what you are trying to say to me. try english this time. and, you know, coherent thought.
I’m getting a PhD in Computer Science, what do you do when you’re not being the boss of all coherence? That means I’m like, book-smart, but not ppl-smart, dick.
JK’s! See what I mean? Anyway, I think you are just fucking with me. You are just fucking with me, right? In which case, I am so busted! Reminds me of that time I got into an innernet fight with a bot. I’m pretty sure it was here, lol.
i think you need to have a talk with this kid’s dad.
probably wouldn’t hurt. He sounds pretty great, really.
eat a goat dick, soldja
peaaace.
-Brains.
Try making sense then, Ms. ‘look at all the pix of me in my blog! omg, hee hee lolz’ really, you’re not that pretty.
Some Helpful Hints for Structuring Arguments:

at first i thought maybe the soldja boy pic was sincere, and i thought, “this guy, he’s stupid, but in an honest kind of way – i like that.”
but, now i see that its sarcastic, so, you’re a doucher.
when you call me a doucher, is that sincerely the insult you decided to go with, or were you sarcastically using it like “haha im intentionally using a childish insult because it contrasts with my otherwise articulate manner of speech that i use in real life but not while typing on the internet so it loses its effect anyway”? because either way you suck.
i have absolutely no idea what you were trying to say here. i read it 4 times, honest to god, but i cant get my head around it. it just doesn’t make sense – no sarcasm.
also, i use the term “doucher” on a weekly basis.

I love blog comment fights. They’re like watching midgets wrestle. Funny, but mostly kinda sad.
