~~The Stranger’s~~ Dan Savage’s Hump Festival featuring “dirty” home movies submitted by real people has been around for a looooooong time and it’s….fine. It got a “little same-oh, same-oh” for me (kinda like The Stranger itself…) but I know lots of people like it, so fine. Go. Watch filthy videos featuring anal hooks and bored lesbians.

(Plus, this year, I have about 30 friends who have videos in it, so I guess it behooves you to go…to support my friends.)

I’m WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY more excited about the just announced INTERNET CAT VIDEO FESTIVAL!!!!

OMG!

Yes, you saw that right….SIFF is hosting a THREE DAY festival of nothing but motherfreaking CAT VIDEOS on November 23-25 (the Mon-Wed before Thanksgiving) with ONE show per day at 7pm. It’s the Internet Cat Video Festival, people!!!!

The world’s first Internet Cat Video Festival began in 2012 at the Walker Art Center in Minneapolis, and quickly became an online sensation online, sparking news headlines worldwide, and drawing upwards of 10,000 people—some in costumes, others cradling kitty companions, all feline fanatics! Now, the Internet Cat Video Festival is touring the globe with an all new program of super-star kitty cat cuteness.

Year: 2015

Running Time: 70 minutes

Mud Bay will hand out cat goodie bags and help you make your very own cat toy, while the Seattle Animal Shelter will have a special surprise guest in attendance.

We’re guessing the “special guest” must be Grumpy Cat!!! Or, Lil’ Bub!!!!

Here’s a video about the 2013 Festival!
