It's a cartoon. This demonstrates exactly why you freak even the goths out and are at the bottom of the obsession hierarchy - you project your attractions on others. Sorry, just because a man is straight doesn't mean he is attracted to a poorly drawn nude cartoon. You are incapable of recognizing that. THAT is why furries=fail.

One day someone will explain to me why images from Warhammer 40K and Battletech are always shown to be purging furries from existence.

Could you perhaps choose something less dorky than a couple of the most anal-retentive war games ever made? 'Cos you aren't exactly impressing anyone as it is.

I never got that either. I know some table-top Warhammer nerds. Not exactly the suavest of the bunch.

But hey, at least they aren't furries.

It's because the only people who really give a shiat about furries are sexually repressed anal retentive dorks. Everyone else thinks it's odd and weird, but quickly move on with their lives.

I've more than once listened to an ubernerd friend go on a ten minute rant about how those weirdos are somehow 100x worse than all the other weird shiat people randomly get attracted to. At the end, all I could muster was a "Why the fark do you care so much?"

 
Bloody William 2008-12-25 08:01:14 PM  
The thing with furries is, not all of them are the weirdos in fur suits (known as "fursuiters," because for sexual deviants they're not too creative). Most "furries" are just giant dorks with inexplicably weird bookmarks on screen caps porn collections. The guys who dress up are on the far, weird end of the whole "furry" spectrum.

I believe he was implying a "what if" scenario in which the fictional character in questions wasn't fictional with his comment, not a literal "You'd stick your penis in your USB port to have a go at a cartoon" situation that so many attribute to Furries.

Furries:Fursuiters::"normal" people:drunken students at Mardi Gras

Sure one is a subgroup of the other, but to view the whole through that lens is going to leave your impressions highly distorted.

/same is true of any group and its fringe subcultures.

 
Ringshadow 2008-12-25 08:14:39 PM  
Dammit, why didn't anyone tell me then?!

Also, as stated above, not all furries are fursuiters.

Bluevirage: Just as long as costumed folks stop by B-more each year for Otakon and pump money into the city. They can dress however they like.

Otakon has some furries like every nerd con, but it's mostly anime nerds, like Animefest or Comic-con. For the real crazy shiat, there are actual furry conventions. I've never gone to one and honestly don't really want to except to maybe see some friends, but from what I've heard it's basically fitting in a Comic-con's worth of crazy into a pretty damn tiny hotel convention center.

Ah, okay. 'Cos Warhammer 40K is one of the most sexually-repressed, anal-retentive nerd-rage games I can think of. The whole thing reeks of bad speed metal, cheap booze, and acne medication. The whole universe is one entire "I got beat up a lot in school so now all I think about doing is laying waste to the entire universe" weird ego thing.

Doesn't everybody on Fark have a weird porn collection? And not just a few .jpg's, but like something that usually is RAID'ed?

People who dress up and shag each other. Wow, that describes everybody in the damn universe.

Oh, it's not like my collection is RAIDed. It's just a 750-gig external WD MyBook with a Firewire hookup (I'd use eSATA, but it's a bit more finicky when it comes to power-on/power-off) with a deep file system spread across a broad variety of tastes, media, and formats, including movies, photos, and PDFs (for magazines; I wish there was a better distribution system, like CBR for comic books).

I mean, sure, when I get my own house (I mean own, not just apartment), I'll probably have a dedicated rack-mount server in a closet just for my porn, but it's not like that's the case NOW...

/Am I kidding?

One picture with some midgets, corsets, and fire. then another picture of an ambulance. Obviously the same group, and obviously the performers know each other and probably show concern at the misfortune of others.
