He's running from a straight female fur? Does he not know how rare we are?

Rarer than proverbial "hens teeth", from this old man's experience--- *grin*

Narf! :)

Yeah, I think they are like, two of you on the planet, and Mrs. Gneech is one of them :D

CYa!

Well ok, she's not a furry, but she is an engineer which is just as rare a combination. :)

CYa!

Hey, at least humorous good-natured furry mocking can be entertaining. (Sadly, most of it is missing those key adjectives.)

I still think that Brunching Shuttlecocks did it best with the Geek Hierarchy chart. :D

That chart IS funny---! ;D

yet, that chart left out the one group that goes on the very VERY bottom.

[people who make charts about relative lameness in order to feel socially elevated]

then again, maybe there's one below that for people who make comments about people who make charts.. etc. Ah well.

And for even more weirdness, don't forget about the complete, unabridged version (http://www.brunching.com/images/geekchartbig.gif).

ZOMGS! Teh Furry! ;)

That was rather silly! I guess this just proves that no matter how weird 'you' might be, those 'other guys' are much weirder!

ROFL

My monitor does NOT thank you for the donation of soda, though.

I have always found the Wiki article on Furs to be refreshingly non-antaganistic, it seems to be a relatively non-biased view of the fandom, I espessially like the part at the very begining of the article where it says "Due to previous vandalism, editing of this article by anonymous or newly registered users is disabled (see semi-protection policy). Such users may discuss changes, request unprotection, or create an account."
As for Dork tower, I find it a good-natured satire, here Matt has spent the length of the entire panel griping to the attractive woman about how she will judge him, then does exactly that at the end, I wouldn't say this is poking fun at furs, I would say the opposite, that it's saying people don't give furs a chance, and the writer is making fun of that automatic response "furs = bad"

Dunno, probably just being redundant but I felt talkative today *goes back to the shadows and lurks*

Funny, ask most hotel staff, and they prefer furries over gamers/sci-fi-ers any day. We tend to make less of a mess.

The hotels where Dragon*Con takes place, they like both. Both fandoms tip extremely well, it'd appear.
