I was kinda waiting for this post to segue into something else. Something... More.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Just watched that BBC documentary and, holy shit, although there's nothing new and earth-shattering there, it doesn't stop me from being weirded the FUCK out by these people. I'm all for the freedom to pursue an alternative lifestyle or what have you, but I'm just filled with overwhelming pity for these people.

Go ahead and beat off to as many toons as you please - just keep your fucking fursuit frolicking under wraps. aaaaaaahhhh

There's nowhere I can't reach.

I have met several Wicca that are furries, because they feel it helps them spiritually.

About a month ago, an SA goon on a US navy base posted a thread about just this. He and his buddies were going through the possessions left behind by a guy who'd been discharged after being diagnosed with bipolar disorder. Among them was about six months' worth correspondence between this guy, his inbred bumfuck nowhere family, e-friends he met on Furcadia, the gay furry lover he moved in with after being discharged, and various acquaintances and relatives who focused on their disapproval of 'Wicker'. His family's letters revealed that his siblings had been nothing but disappointment to them, and it was pretty easy to get the "you're my last chance" vibe from his dad's writings. Lo and behold, he totally fails everybody and kills any chance at success in favour of having bear sex with some guy.

This had a major hand in forming my incredibly biased view of furries. I only understand half this shit from a long time wasted reading ED articles. All I see the subculture as is an outlet for bored, pathetic, unattractive people who find friends through being utterly off the wall.

I'm sure there are plenty of exceptions. I have no problem with anthro art. That, however, doesn't seem to be the majority.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.
