sarameg, I can't even express how wonderful I think this and your dad are. Reading about groups like this and Spiritus Christi give me hope for the human species, when most times I have little.

Do the Lolcat people acknowledge Cookie Monster as their inspiration?
What "Lolcat people"? The user who contributed the first Om Nom Nom lolcat? Anyway, "nom nom" or "om nom" or etc. was around the internets before lolcats, although of course much less often.
