The modern Internet is pretty much entirely built on social media accounts for cute pets. If the likes of Doug the Pug or Winston the Corgi were to suddenly stop posting, the Internet, and by extension the global economy would grind to a halt.

People responded with tons of their own unflattering pet photos. If you’re looking for the antidote to Instagram cuteness, look no further! (via Bored Panda)
