I've recently become addicted to the show Parks and Recreation on NBC, and most of my obsession comes from the libertarian Parks Department's head, Ron Swanson, played by Nick Offerman. (A gem from Swanson in the 3rd season's premiere episode: "Capitalism: God's way of determining who is smart and who is poor.") So when I was linked to the Tumblr Cats That Look Like Ron Swanson this week, it was like the fusing of all of my favorite things: television, cats, and internet memes. Check out some of my favorites below or click over to the Cats That Look Like Ron Swanson Tumblr for some mid-week amusement.

"I ate the bacon already. I could smell it in your purse before I even parked my car. And now it's gone and I hate everything."

"And just like that, the one thing I enjoyed about government is clubbed to death before my eyes."

"I got my first job when I was nine. Worked at a sheet metal factory. In two weeks, I was running the floor. Child labor laws are ruining this country."
