The most fucked up thing about that quote from Sonnarrat decrying mass consumerism and the state of modern life is that he's a Republican. Some people never learn to add one plus one...


edit: I also don't give a fuck if people get off staring at juicy hyena rumps; it's as bizarre to me as people who take enjoyment in using uzis to take out yearlings and does.

 

[Tarazet]

He isn't parading it in public (sonarrat), so what's the BS? He keeps it private because he associates shame with it. He realizes it's strange, so he keeps it on the down low. Sounds like something he can't quite control to me. Maybe some medication would help.

<sigh.>

I'm starting to think you're right.

1. No, and I think it's stupid because there are plenty of furries that are completely mundane and uninteresting.

2. I'm going to trim down what I wrote earlier, because it's both too much and too little:

- I prefer the average animal's way of life to the average human's
- I think humans are funny-looking, and prefer the grace of a magnificent animal
- I am not sexually attracted to people, I have been in bed with humans of both sexes and not felt anything
- I may well be mentally ill, although I perform strongly in academic fields and have a natural musical gift besides

Cariboooooooouuuuuuuu.

 

[God's Hand]

Yeah, that looks about as normal as you can get.

 

[shuri]

Nuke them from orbit!!

 

[Barrage]

Fuck. You people are SICK.

I mean, DRESS UP?? Call each other the NAMES? What's wrong with you? I mean sure, i've occasionally thought of a beaver while making love to my girlfriend, but who hasn't? And so what if I fap to the Chicken Little trailer?

You guys have problems.


P.S.: Anyone have any Biker Mice from Mars VHS they would like to sell?

 

[Sapiens]

Yeah, that looks about as normal as you can get.

Absolutely Bizarre. We need to use the HGP to discover what causes this abnormality and fucking zap it.

Watching that video, it just struck me as these people were completely misarable (Especially the Cat-man). I wonder what the suicide rate among furries is.

Makes me look at Disney, and other anthropological animal cartoons in a new light.

 

[Tarazet]

Furries are the afterproduct of a societal trainwreck. All of the "its ok to be different" education. I am not saying it is bad to be different. I am saying that furries are just a stranger form of hot topic customers. People who are so socially inept that the comiserate with other socially inept people of similar persuasion, slap a subculture/community/scene label on it, and pretend that they are "normal, but different".

I'm going to spoiler-tag my response to this so no one can bitch at me for popping their mental cherries (if that hasn't happened already).

Spoiler

This may apply accurately to people who were furries first. I wasn't. When I was growing up, I wasn't attracted to cartoons or mascots. I was attracted to animals. If I hadn't done anything about it, I could've been this guy. It was hell, but I couldn't help it.. I was obsessively, intensely attracted to animals, just like a lot of guys are to women when they're 13, 14. I knew, in no uncertain terms, that I couldn't do it. It would ruin my life to lose my virginity to an animal. So what I decided to do instead was divert the energy.. and act out my fantasies online. Fortunately, it worked. The urges that I had initially are gone.

So I didn't start out as a furry. I made the change only out of fear of what I would do to animals if I didn't. So I'm decidedly not the same as other furries.. it's even discernible in my style, because I'm very rough and 'feral' as a role-player. I do get enjoyment out of it. But I don't take any pride in being a furry, because it's neither how I really feel, nor is it a traditional 'normal' path which, if I could warm to it, would become more and more desirable to me because of the benefits that society gives to those that follow the rules. I'm a willing furry, but I'm not a happy furry..

 

[Son of Godzilla]

The only thing I have to say in defense of the furries is that the reporter probed a bit on some of the more nauseating bits.

That still doesn't excuse having cartoons of a bear fucking a dog on a wall in your living room.

 

[Jim Bowie]

Holy cow... this is by far the most demented, horrifying thing I've ever seen. In all my life. I'm so scared right now. Here is a play by play of my reactions:
1:50- LOL
3:07- LOLOL
3:16 - Wabbit (God, I hate that) says she can run fast? "Bitch! You can't run! You can hardly wobble!"

10:19- Hilarity of Ostrich's person and shirt finally kicks in, I laugh until I cry.
10:36 - Absolute terror (aka, Ostrich in leotard)
10:48- LOL
11:12- Super pissed off. How dare he lump all computer geeks in to furryism?!? I pause the computer, make a sandwich, and continue
11:45- I give up eating

22:02 - LOL
22:45 - Man, Stalker Cat is a fucking asshole. "Can I help?" "Uhhh, NO!"

If sonarrat's Republican, it's because he sees what he thinks is "Democrat" groupthink among folks in his general peer group. A perception of groupthink doesn't make that groupthink wrong, and if your subconscious response is to oppose a perceived majority, then you'll always be fucking things up for yourself.

I'm a registered Republican, but I stand with most of my peers in condemning the far-right, redneck Republicanism that has been installed in our government. I liked Bob Dole.

 

[Barrage]

I think you're Replublican because you like the elephant.

 

[DDayton]

Eh. I think this is just an extension of the whole "if it feels good, it can't be wrong" mentality that's part of modern culture. Animals can't reject people (as animals can't enter into intelligent conversations and relationships), and that makes them safe. The desire for sex is fairly strong, and if someone is too introverted/scared/etc. to work on that through the proper channels, there are a variety of ways to achieve the physical feelings... this appears to be one of them.

(Me? I think it's perverted and unnatural, and I do feel for folks who find themselves in that mindset.)

 

[Shouta]

This video is scary =(.

 

[Leon]

This reminds me of the Martin Bashir 'interview' where Anna is Bashir and the furries are Michael Jackson.

And yes I realize I put Michael Jackson and furries in the same sentence, I apologize for any heart defects resulting from too much abnormality in one post.

 

[Togeo]

is... is that...... Max from Goof Troop?

 

[DECK'ARD]

At first glance I thought that was a pile of toys for those UFO grabber machines you get in arcades.

Then I realised the horrible truth ...

Ahahaha, I thought it was just a giant picture of someone's stuffed animal collection till just now.

 

[Rlan]

There are FAR too many Saturday Morning / After School cartoon characters in that picture.

 

[Fatghost]

Sonarrat, have you seen a psychiatrist?


Seriously, you might want to get some objective, professional opinion about the stuff that you're talking about here.

 

[aoi tsuki]

You know, i really tried to keep an open mind about this, but aside from the part where they went to the supermarket in a full costume (which looked pretty fun), i was pretty disturbed by what went on in most of the show.

But the fact remains, if they're not doing something against someone's will and are just having fun, who cares? On that note, the "slurp" was pretty disgusting and really uncalled for.

That still doesn't excuse having cartoons of a bear fucking a dog on a wall in your living room.

On that note, i picked up a Kozy and Dan "animal orgy" print (it's on their site last i checked) and i have no idea what to do with it. i thought it was just pretty disturbing and funny at the time, but i have no real use for it now.

 

[Leatherface]

Just watched the whole thing.


wow. I have no words.

[Cauliflower of Love]

I must be very open minded or something, watched, no big deal.

 

[Deleted member 1235]

Don't put words in my mouth. I would give anything to be able to talk with my own friends and family about my love interests...

sex interests.

damn it sonnarat, see a shrink. Seriously your spoilered reply is basically and admittance that you need help. I ragged on you pretty hard in the hate thread, but you seem to have some brains despite your, thing, so just get some help.

 

[mightynine]

Well, I wonder who got to do all the research for that CSI episode.

I can't tell if Anna's serious...or just kinda dumb.

2nd edit: I've determined Anna needs to explore her inner sweaterpuppies.

 

[aoi tsuki]

What?

It's in the illustrations page of their site, in the miscellaneous section. i was chatting with a friend when i happened, drunk, and well... PayPal makes things far too easy.

In a weird twist, a local friend gave me this link and information:

http://www.livejournal.com/users/wabbitcalif/

The woman Wabbit from the BBC special died of a staph infection in Jan., her last LJ post is in reference to some problems she was having.

I know it's big news that she died but, man, did you really have to bump this thread up? I was trying really hard to erase this from my mind. Damn you!
