If you see a furry today

Jumpingzombie · 2013-10-30 12:44:11

make a wish, it's your lucky day

Imipolex G · 2013-10-30 13:02:25

you're optimistic, that's good!

Jumpingzombie · 2013-10-30 13:10:20

Yeah, furries tend to get a bad rap. I'm here to help their PR in some kind of positive way!

Tachyon · 2013-10-30 13:11:50

do people still care about furries?

people who aren't furries?

Mr. Darcy · 2013-10-30 13:14:44

Furries can serve a useful function as football mascots.

Imipolex G · 2013-10-30 13:14:57

I thought they were still the internet's punching bag, or one of them

Tachyon · 2013-10-30 13:17:57

guessing that's along with bronies, otherkin, SJWs, MRAs and hipsters?

Tachyon · 2013-10-30 13:18:17

man, the internet

Imipolex G · 2013-10-30 13:18:37

the internet is depressing

basically the only people who are upset with furries are the kind of people who act like it's 2008 and think ragecomics are funny

Previous Calica · 2013-10-30 20:32:29

I think most of the furry hate has metamorphosed into brony hate.

Obā-san · 2013-10-30 20:34:33

the most virulent brony haters are furries tbh

Sredni Vashtar · 2013-10-30 20:35:27

^^ The two are not mutually exclusive.

Of course, there is a distinction to be made between people that don't "get" furry culture and people that actively hate or demean it.

^ Good point.

Anonus · 2013-10-30 20:47:58

Being a furry probably means watching Swat Kats: The Radical Squadron more often than I do

Obā-san · 2013-10-30 20:49:09

man i have never felt compelled to watch Swat Kats

Justice4243 · 2013-10-30 20:50:59

SWAT Kats is RAD!

why's that?

if anything i'd have expected the reverse

Sredni Vashtar · 2013-10-30 20:52:45

Simple: "Stop that! You're making us look bad!"

Tachyon · 2013-10-30 20:57:01

oh, right

i guess i can understand that

but then, not all bronies are furries

so if bronies are being dumb or gross shouldn't that make furries seem respectable by comparison?

Sredni Vashtar · 2013-10-30 20:59:20

In theory. But there are other issues at work as well.

Obā-san · 2013-10-30 20:59:31

they get associated via the whole "cartoon porn" thing

plus most prominent brony artists started off as largely-unknown-but-talented furry artists who saw an opportunity to hit the big time

hence the whole "wow this fandom is so new but it already has so many great artists!!!" thing early on

Tachyon · 2013-10-30 21:02:18

...you know i did wonder about that

i mean i guess i'd have expected the show to appeal to furries, tho the characters are less anthropomorphic than most furry artwork i've seen

Obā-san · 2013-10-30 21:13:17

there are definitely a lot of furry/brony people out there

ponies are furry enough to get uploaded to furry image sites of both pornographic and non-pornographic sorts

...aaaaannnd there is so much pony art that unless you filter it all like you're gonna have to sift through so many fuckin ponies

that breeds contempt quickly

Tachyon · 2013-10-30 21:16:59

i can imagine

Viani · 2013-10-31 16:53:56

haven't seen furries yet

FINALLY

Sredni Vashtar · 2013-11-01 19:29:24

^^ I looked up the background on this.

I am not sure whether to be repulsed or amused at the whole matter.

I wonder what theme that is. It isn't the one I've seen on my girlfriend's Nexus 4, and it isn't a Samsung one...

Viani · 2013-11-01 23:59:25

Well at least she doesn't know about Juggalo Furries

Section42L · 2013-11-02 03:38:58

She's probably just watched a lot of Law & Order: SVU and CSI episodes.

Sredni Vashtar · 2013-11-02 15:26:57

^ No, I looked it up. There is one episode of this particular show that... well, you can look it up yourself. I can't recount it. Too much social incompetence.

Sredni Vashtar · 2013-11-02 15:40:30

^ Probably.

I have looked up the segment you are referring to. I'm curious how reality shows even dig up people like that. You can't exactly bump into them on the street, after all.

★ ~ S U M M E R ✿ S A U S A G E ! ~ ★ · 2013-11-02 19:34:18

Why so cagey, is the show that bad or something?

lee4hmz · 2013-11-02 19:40:50

CSI did a whole show about a murder at a furry convention. Or something like that, I remember some people I knew freaking out about it back in the day.

★ ~ S U M M E R ✿ S A U S A G E ! ~ ★ · 2013-11-02 19:42:16

Ohhh, that. kk I saw reality show and got confused.

also lol

Sredni Vashtar · 2013-11-02 19:57:50

CSI did, but in this case we are referring to an episode of the "reality show" Storage Wars. The episode that the woman seems to have seen features two people who, to put it simply, are what people who don't know much about furries tend to think furries are like and are 99.8% of the time terribly mistaken... but not in this case.

get ready...

for the yiffening

Bee · 2013-11-03 02:19:20

Please tell me the Yiffening is when a furry beheads another furry and all the lights and windows explode as the victor absorbs the deceased's furry power.

Yes.

This is what the furry fandom is really all about.

Our cover is blown.
