“Cut Yourself Off, Scott”

2009/06/17

Keyboard Cat is an Internet meme. It consists of footage of “Fatso”, a cat (now deceased) owned by Charlie Schmidt of Spokane, Washington, “playing” an upbeat rhythm on an electronic keyboard. The clip has gained popularity by being appended to blooper and other viral videos as if to “play” that person offstage after the mistake or gaffe, usually accompanied with the title Play Him Off, Keyboard Cat or a variant.

The term Internet meme (pronounced /miːm/, meem) is a phrase used to describe a catchphrase or concept that spreads quickly from person to person via the Internet, much like an inside joke.[1] The term is a reference to the concept of memes, although this concept refers to a much broader category of cultural information.

Examples include : Chuck Norris,  Star Wars Kid, Brian Peppers, Danny “Tourette’s Guy”, Chocolate Rain, Chris Crocker, the Numa Numa dance and Leeroy Jenkins.
