For the past three years, you can barely surf the internet for a day without seeing the "Woman Yelling at Cat" meme. It's a convenient and engaging two-image combination to amusingly illustrate any statement with a comeback. We've posted the story of Smudge the cat. Now we get a chance to hear the story of the woman, Taylor Armstrong, who tells us what led to the image of her yelling on the reality TV series The Real Housewives of Beverley Hills. Warning: it involves domestic abuse. Armstrong is out of that relationship, but how does she feel about the meme?
It's good to know that even though the original experience was traumatic, you can feel okay about using the meme that it spawned. Meanwhile, Smudge is doing fine, and still sitting at the table, and occasionally doing that face. He still no like vegetals. -via Digg
Besides that, the time an abusive man is most likely to kill a woman is when she attempts to leave him.
