Wait... are you worried your kid is a transformer! OMG...
Eh, furries. I think it's a little strange to let a fetish become a way of life, but I guess I can't really talk.
I let a http://www.hongfire.com/cg/data/25/caramelldansen.swf become a way of life.
dammit, Steampunk. At least once a year I stupidly click on one of your links and that freaking song gets stuck in my head for hours.
No, but I have seen http://plasticsurgerybeforeandafter.blogspot.com/2010/05/cat-woman-plastic-surgery.html, and I can't unsee it. Definitely a furry, ya? Reneer, Shadowscales, what say you? (Also, is that attractive to you.)
Don't confuse people with an addiction to plastic surgery with furries. It strikes me that if you had been reading the thread - at least those responses that were actually discussing and not trying to be clever or funny, you would have known that introducing a well-known image of plastic surgery gone wild was not even related. And, perhaps, somewhat insulting to the people that are actually trying to have a discussion about it. So it ill behooves folks (not just you) to get defensive if someone pushes back on responses that were purposefully snarky or whatever.
Anywho... furry is not my thing, but I am a big big believer in live and let live with interests and subcultures that harm no one and are fun for those involved. Who cares what your thing is - you get together with people, you laugh, you drink, you meet like-minded folks and hit it off and have a good time. Does it matter if you like to pin on a tail, or have a club that watches MLP, or paint miniscule miniatures for table-top strategy games, or fly model airplanes in a park, or make unusual sculptures out of found trash, or whatever else gives you some moments of fun and pleasure? Geeesh.
