Is it supposed to be a cutesy voice like you talk to babies in? Because for some reason I read it in an intimidating Russian voice.

It really makes a big difference.

1. I hear most LOL cats in a kind of Garrison Keillor voice.
A mellifluous baritone with a slightly snarky edge.

3. Yeah, that makes a difference too.

Not quite as intimidating as mine though. "I can haz cheezeburger?" takes on a completely different tone if you think your knee caps depend on it.
