Scrolling through endless memes is what Sunday was made for. After a whole week of action, Sunday is there for you to lay flat on the couch, forget about the world and take in some wonderfully derpy cats. And today is no different, as we take a deep dive and explore the full breadth of the derpy scale from pawdorable little derps, all the way to the dunkin dunces of derp town.
Derpiness is a central feature of cats' personalities, but depending on their breed and upbringing, some cats are likelier to rank higher on the derp scale. Orange cats have the highest genetic likelihood of ending up on the dunce derp end of the scale, with only one brain cell it can be tough to navigate even the most basic facets of daily life. On the other end of the scale are our favourite black voids, who seem to be born with a sense of elegance and class that usually precludes them from any central part of the derp scale. That being said, there are more than enough voids that have derpy moments for us to still include them on the derp scale.

Oh meow god, is there anything cuter or more wholesome in the feline world than a little derp to be, swaddled in the derp blanket. Oh my the levels of derp coming off this meme are stupifying, but also so pawdorably cute, it is tough to hold it together. It only gets more derpy from here on out.
Well, this certainly explains why this meme has become such an integral part of expressing feline behaviour. Just the idea that ancient Egyptians understood cats in much the same way that we do, and that they would create hieroglyphic memes to portray the funnier feline moments, is mind blowing. Proof that cats have been derping since the dawn of time.
