Relevant edge case: Many definitions of lolcats (which this appears to be) include the fact that the text on them is often grammatically incorrect, so the use of less on this image, while a grammatical error, is in fact the correct usage on a lolcat.

An excellent point.

Excellent, I believe this thread is back on track.  ;D Also, yes, I did heavily debate using 'fewer' vs. 'less' before ultimately deciding on the more lol-cat-worthy 'less'. ;)

*Fewer

Would you say, "I want at fewest three more memes" or "I want at least three more memes"?

Ah, I missed that! I was confused; trying to figure out if the card was funny or clever somehow; or if it just got lots of votes because of the editing job.

Hello.  Name's Bruce.  It's all right.  I understand.  Why trust a shark, right?

Is quite curious - Who is the mystical "Celestial Chameleon"?

I currently imagine mail-mi wearing a dark trenchcoat and a bowler hat, hunched over a bit, toothpick in his mouth, holding a gun in his pocket.  One bead of sweat trickling down his nose.

'And what is it that ye shall hope for? Behold I say unto you that ye shall have hope through the atonement of Christ and the power of his resurrection, to be raised unto life eternal, and this because of your faith in him according to the promise." - Moroni 7:41, the Book of Mormon
