I am a lurker, a prowler. I'm very happy to sit in the corner & just watch the goings-on.

Okami is more of a 'ta-da' kinda furry. He always leaps into a room & wants to talk to everyone.

Sweet, another lurker. We need to start a lurker fan club, but I don't think anyone would step forward to say anything.

Sassy hyena hasn't shown up today...

Think she said that her school blocks faf and can't get on until after she gets out.

Looking over various threads today, something once again struck me as odd: that there are so many furries who never seem to have any fun in the fandom. If it's no fun, and there's nothing rewarding about it, and you don't have anything positive that you're getting out of it, I always have to wonder: why be involved?

In any event, it can be a struggle some days, when I nose about, to find things that are creatively engaging, where I feel that sense of creativity, possibility and connection; it often seems to be occluded under a lot of negativity.

It's also Monday, and that never helps : P

Some people are just drama furs or people that want to start crap. It gets old and tiring to see. Good example would be some of the resent dumpster fires.

I'm having fun, this place helps with the Monday glooms.

I agree. I am here for fun. Nothing else. To entertain and be entertained by other Furries. I enjoy the talk, the camaraderie, the whole silliness of it all. What I am NOT here for is drama, talk about sex, "grooming" younger Furries, or anything extra marital! I just want to have fun! Joke around. Boop people on occasion. And just be silly! I know that other stuff is going on. But I dont associate myself with that.

The people I follow on here, and that follow me, seem to be great folks. The ones I interact with seem to be here for the same thing I am, to be silly and goofy and to help bleed away the stress of the real world. Some do get a bit......idk......flirty?, suggestive, but they dont usually push the issue.

@Furrygameremopunk sorry for this reply of mine, I have just things that I did as a kid and I can't forgive myself for them and always when I think about it I just don't know how I could do things like that
Things happen that dont have explanations. But we learn from them and move on, never to repeat those mistakes again. I think you are doing fine.

I don't get that either. Immersing yourself in something that doesn't bring you joy or reward seems a bit pointless doesn't it. Everyone should resolve to just lighten up and see a few positives. Life is just so much better if you make time for little happy bits. And as re-affirmed by my day today life is too fucking short.

So on a happy note, as I walked past the BT Tower on my way home tonight I stood near the base of it and looked up, then remembered the time they dressed it as a lightsaber to advertise the release of a Star Wars film (I forget which one). It worked surprisingly well I thought. So here's a pic of when they did that.

Mostly... But it stills is in me... When I'm really angry etc. I just start to feel a weird feeling in my whole body, adrenaline etc. And I have vision of stabbing,breaking bones of o someone thst really pisses me off etc. And after a while I hold myself, calm down and I'm scared of what is inside me, I'm scared that I will not hold myself one time...
EDIT: Once I've choked my friend almost to death and after a moment have noticed what I'm doing, and once I just threw brick to a bully, fortunately nothing happened, only his knee ached as fuck and started to run from me and then stopped bullying me, once another bully has punched me in the face, I grabbed his head, and threw at wall, took a stone and threw at him, he received it in the head, he escaped with bleeding head... And there were some more situations like thst in grade school...

Lots of great people on here, and have met more because of links from here. I went through several furry boards before signing up here and calling FAF home.

And I'll be the first to admit, I'll throw out the occasional double meaning or something playful. No disrespect or "try to steal" is ever meant, and hopefully wasn't taken by those.

Not at all buddy. I am old so can usually tell what is playful and what is more than playful. No worries!
