My mom's thoughts about me being a furry and a question...

[arinot]

HOLY ####ING ####. DO YOU REALIZE WHAT YOU GUYS ARE SAYING. just let it be... stop being upset, and blow it off. MLK did that. He just said, hey... you don't like us, live without us. AND HE OWNED. Ghandi... he just ignored the british and did as he like. AND THE BRITISH GOT OWNED.

just let it be, and go on with you lives. Eventually, they'll run out of material and forget about us. And then one of yall, or me, will remind them...

I honestly don't get how you all can complain so much XD.

Arinot, in all your outstanding wisdom,

I have to disagree with you.
because this ain't politics

[Tamok123]

You are who you are, no one can change that.
Its not bad either, if different was bad then every single person on this place we call Earth would be on the most wanted list.

There is wisdom in this.
You may become a jedi yet.

[arinot]

that's my point.

It's not bad. There's only difference. Sometimes, it pays not to defend yourself. when you defend, you fight back, which causes teh other guy to keep driving at you. That's what's happening here. We are making who we are more of an issue than it should be.
I am me, and that is who I am.
if you can live with that, then you probally wouldn't be making a fuss on it.

Then again, having your mom doing that is a diffrent issue... my arguement is targeted toward the trolling and crap that everyone complains about round here.

Yeah.. it is in fact best to ignore trolls, since reacting to them only encourages them. They get bored when you pretend they don't exist. As for negative furry stereotypes in culture and media.. not much you can really do about it. I don't think we belong in institutions, most of us aren't crazy and the ones that are, are not crazy for being a furry, its extra baggage they brought into the fandom with them.

I think were all kind of crazy, but it's not a bad crazy. It's a fun, unique crazy. It's just that the world apparently doesn't like fun unique crazy.

people put far far too much stock in what is considered to be "normal". my mom was a normality freak. took me to a therapist cause she thought i was too antisocial andturns out i was just fine and she was overly obsessed with the concept of normal XD

long story short. nothing wrong with ya. there are people right this second who just spent 12 hours in the middle of the woods in an uncomfortable position with animal urine on them cause they have an obsession with hunting. obsession is perfectly acceptable. and we just have a love animals and anthro. how far you take your love of such things is your business and idc how open or reserved you are with it.

my general rule of thumb. people dont accept me and my interests? fuck em. got no use for them. not gonna sacrifice who i am for someone who isnt willing to accept me.

Also, as a note to us 'all being furverts; blame rule 32.

Rule 32?

[arinot]

Every thing you thought of has been made into porn.

Alien abduction, porn

pirates? porn.

grandmothers? porn.

furries? porn.

I am quite sure this rule holds true.

That's rule 34.

Rule 32 is that if it can be said, it can be said with a picture.

A great example is this:

[arinot]

DAMN IT...
I get those two mixed up...

[techdude300]

so where are these "rules" from anyway?

[arinot]
