My mother asked me about "furry" today.

[Lobo Roo]

Like open your mind.

I hate that phrase/expression with a passion.

I figured what I really wanted to say would be 'too far' even in this wacked out thread. :evil:

Troll pwnt, Thread over. This topic is now about bubblebobble.

I fail to see, Acorn, how the OP is a troll.

Differing opinion =/= Troll

Differing opinion =/= Troll

Clue one: Moot
Clue two: In anonymous uniform
Clue three: totally unrealistic scenario + forcefeeding of christian religion
Clue four: "Guys, thread is an epic failure" = EFG / Epic fail guy
MURK LOAR

 

[Bokracroc]

Guys, thread is an epic failure.

That's what you believe.

No, this thread is pretty Epic Fail.

 

[kitetsu]

I knew i should've omitted that bit. Fuck.

 

[Bokracroc]

Too late.

 

[TheRedRaptor]

My mum: Furry friends? What's that?"

 

[Stratelier]

Bold is mine, of course....

...your post is very hard to read that way.

Going on your basis of appearances, I can then assume the following:

Clue one: Name "Acorndeer"
Clue two: On a furry website
Clue three: has an avatar with a deer on it
Clue four: Obviously a furry
OBVIOUSLY FUCKS ANIMALS AMIRITE?!?!

That's quite the unfair assumption isn't it? I use EFG and other such things all the time, and I am by no means a /b/tard. So take your assumptions and get in the corner with all the people saying mexicans will knife you in the gut, and that black people will shoot up your house in drive bys.

 

[Hakar]

Oh sure, furry is all about the yiff.
Imagine for a moment that, as of today, Youtube will allow pornography. How do you think it will look in a week?

 

[Blue Dragon]

Guys, thread is an epic failure. Why? Because no one is will to accept the truth about the fandom and everyone has their own idea of what a furry is. I refuse to call anything with anthropomorphic animals "furry". I refuse to call artists who like to draw these things furries. I refuse to call someone who just likes anthropomorphism a "furry". Either you people are seriously oblivious to what furry is really about or you just refuse to accept the truth.

But that's beside the point. The point is I'm an idiot for trying to discuss this and expecting decent results. All I've done is start a furry uproar. Just know that you guys are being prayed for whether you like it or not.

I guess I'm really not a furry then to you, even if I like to draw animals and anthros and other such things. *Hugs*
Thank you

Thanks for that.

So someone who has a ton of electronics junk and misc. types electronic tools/equipment in their room, and uses it from time to time for unusual things isn't a nerd? Whew, that's a relief!
I consider myself furry because I like anthropomorphic animal art. I think it's a neat idea, and the resulting characters are interesting in my mind. It's also easier to say than "I find an interest in anthropomorphic animals".

But that's beside the point. The point is I'm an idiot for trying to discuss this and expecting decent results. All I've done is start a furry uproar. Just know that you guys are being prayed for whether you like it or not.

You got differing opinions and you don't consider that a decent result? Sorry noone turned out to the the conformists you hoped for.

And don't worry guys, he snapped in another forum too. It's not y'all's fault.

HA! This is some delicious copypasta.
Does that mean i fuck animals now? I know it means all mexicans stab you in the gut.

 

[kitetsu]

That was about as mature as a derranged palestinian.

 

[TehLemming]

Just know that you guys are being prayed for whether you like it or not.

can I choose not to be prayed for? I always find it disconcerting when someone says they will pray for me when I dont think they should. you might as well just say out loud "I'm a better person than you, but if you choose what I choose, you could be okay someday." and it that attitude that makes me dislike most religions and the people representing them

also, from what I've seen the idea of what is furry is pure opinon at this point, it's very vague and open, which is how it should be, so what you think it is really is just an opinion, so meh

so sticking with my previous comments, I say one more thing, because it seems to be the one thing everyone is missing, YOUR OPINION IS NO MORE FACT THEN MINE.

so what ever you want to believe, just remember that you're no more right then any one else here


this thread's gone silly... but just to reemphasis my main point YOUR OPINION IS OPINION!!!! IT'S NOT FACT JUST BECAUSE YOU SAY IT IS!

 

[jayhusky]

The term "Furry" describes a group of people portraying a vast array of anthromorphic animals.

Furry Fandom Followers are fun loving and up for a laugh but unfortunatly there are a few assholes who decide that we are pedo's and sick freaks.

*RANT ALERT*
Well there are many other fandoms around commiting far worse crimes and all, but they pick on us because there one brain cell will die just because it will get lonely, well if you look enough then I'm sure you'll find a fandom which includes in some form an Explicit medium of there following.
*END RANT*

Well to make all things clear 99.99999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999% of people agree that furries are great people to be with and that the conventions are a great social get together.

the other 0.11111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111% (i think thats accurate) are just a bunch of r*****s who like to fuck about causing misery to anyone they cross

 

[HaTcH]

Lol Typical OLD PEOPLE reaction. (also works for: Religion)

"Attack that which you don't understand."

 

[tigergoof]

I read almost whole thread, but i have one thing to say:
Yes i am new here and all that, so you may say i dont have right to say anything, but i think i do.
Ever since i was a little i had a teddy bear, which was there for me always ( not going to details ). I love that bear and i still have it.
Whell a word : furry, and its meaning is not quite easy to describe.....

It is new term for me but, i think i UNDERSTAND what is furry, it is that little feeling that make you giggle and happy !

No one could know real meaning of it, only to understand it.

So we have new question there:
Do you feel that you understand what is furry?

Even if you are new here your still entitled to have your two cents (or variations thereof).

Also the new question (in my eyes) can't be answered until the first question if answered.

You need to know what a furry is before you can say you understand it.

"Attack that which you don't understand."

Mostly they can't (or don't want to) understand it, because in the last 20 Years there have been lots of movement in the peoples, who think that they are different from the *normal* - aka same-sex marries or affiction to Furrys
and such. That was nearly unthinkable at the old people's time (Hippie Era?).

Perhaps not my best post, but i guess some of you might get the meaning behind my post
