Q: Has anyone NOT heard Ratatat's "Wildcat"?

A: Given that some of my readers aren't hipster scumbags, there's at least a chance you may have passed through 2006 without having heard Ratatat's excellent electro single "Wildcat."

Plus, you West Coasters are the only people left online right now, and lord only knows what you goddamned hippies listen to.

So just in case you missed it, here's the greatest dance instrumental of '06.

Two-faced cat freak | May God have mercy on our souls
RELATED Q/SIGN OF THE APOCALYPSE: Did anyone notice last summer that there were two kittens born around the same time, each with two faces, four eyes, and two mouths that meowed in unison -- one in Ohio and one in Oregon?

The Oregon two-faced kitty died, as you might have expected. So what happened to the Ohio kitty? If you're like me, you were praying to hear news of her death -- lest she mature into a full-grown cat, and then into the Anti-Christ, and then destroy humanity.

Well, I have some bad news for you. As revealed in the last paragraph of this story about yet another two-faced cat...
Meanwhile, the Ohio two-faced kitten has disappeared. It had a scheduled appointment with a veterinarian on July 15, but the family could not find the kitten that morning. A house door was found open, leading to speculation that it had been stolen or died in the night and was removed by its mother.
Right. Or else she's circling the globe as we speak; killing giant populations of birds with a mere wave of her Satanic paw; and waiting, waiting for to be called upon by her Dark Lord.

Anyway, happy weekend, everybody!

Even us west-coasters break out the hipster every once in a while. I actually saw Ratatat a few months ago in SF. Though I have to say when I heard the sample in "Wildcat" I was waiting for them to change into Thundercats outfits.

I was going to say: Emily Lakin introduced me to Ratatat months ago. Represent west coast!
