Power of Cute

I will preface this post by saying that that asthma attack was brought on by a cold, so if anything I write seems a little fever induced, it may well be.  So today I wanted to write about Cute. Cute is very important, today, because it has become more than just a favourable adjective to a full on worldwide movement. The movement of Cute. It has become a powerful tool for promoting good causes, advertising, self-expression, and many other good things that my flu-befuddled brain can't think of right now. I am a lover of Cute, I think it's good. I think if we are going to be bombarded to over-saturation point with anything, Cute isn't too bad a thing compared to a lot of other things. Seeing as I am all talking of Cute and whatnot, I thought I would post links to an abundance of Cute on the internet that I frequent regularly.

First off, Cute blogs! I visit I Can Has Cheezburger everyday, because there is always a lot of cute on there. I love cats, because they are warm, fuzzy, good to cuddle, and are very cute. My cats often smell of strange things, like sugar, or millipedes.  Okay sorry, that was me being ill. Back on track now.  I also visit Cute Overload on a daily basis. They have lots of Cute, that isn't just in kitty form. They also have Disaproving Rabbits, puppies, birds, and many other Cute creatures. Another place to drop by, more on a weekly basis, is ZooBorns, because, well, babies are cute, animals are cute, so baby animals must be very cute! The cuteness here can occasionally be almost painful, those little babies just trigger my cute nerves and my nurturing nerves so I just want to sit and hold them all and sing lullabies to them.

YouTube has a lot of Cute there too, so I will link some of my favourite Cute clips there. Maru is a fat cat from Japan, who is adorable, loves to belly-slide into boxes, and has a wonderfully round shaped head, you need to check this fatty out, he's adorable. By the way, Maru is the word for 'circle' or 'round' in Japanese, so he is an aptly named boy. Here you can find a rediculously cute kindle of kittens - yes, that is the actual collective noun for kittens - being cute. Watch those little bonces closely, because they are going to be adorable! My fiance especially likes the grey one, second from the right.  If you're in the mood for a little bit of odd Cute, try this video, which is the intro to a Korean cartoon called I Love Egg. Oh and here is the link to the Powerpuff Girls playing their song, Love Makes The World Go Round.

Now today's knitting pattern must absolutely be Cute, so I went off to look on Ravelry for Cute patterns. I found Bunny Nuggets. I have to knit these, I have to knit many of these.
