Furries.

I had another entry about this ready to go, but upon rereading it I seem wholly confused. After much meditation on why that might be, I figured it out.
The furry community is confusing to navigate. The reason for this, as near as I can gather, is twofold: firstly, it lends to the image that yes, they are special snowflakes. LOOK HOW UNIQUE THEIR WEBSITES ARE! Secondly, it keeps strangers out. For a community that proclaims to be so open-minded and accepting, they certainly get offended easily. Very easily.
So it is with some glee that I can safely lump them with goths, emo kids, and the rap community. While they proclaim to be so unique, in reality they are just embracing a different set of cliches.
But my previous post (that I doubt I'll post since it isn't very interesting) did serve a purpose. I straightened the entire mess out.
Today's subject matter can be found here:

I hope you enjoy this post. I mean really, genuinely enjoy it. Getting this far easily took two hours. While that doesn't sound like a ton of time, when you're wading neck-deep in the sea of shit that is the furry community it's a life sentence.
So immediately it has a system where you have to click a button to go back to the previous day, only unlike the other systems I've encountered this is even less convenient.
Eventually I found this post, but I'll be goddamned if I can figure out the date when this was posted. It only lists the time.
So whatever I'll just fly blind.

My first search there was, well, "furry." Because duh. That's the first thing that comes to my mind. It got no results at all, not even when I turned Safe Search off.

This is about a new search engine called Cuil. Some might say it's a good thing that nothing came up, but whatever.
I go further back and I find a post about some grand injustice rendered unto him by a friend.
No just kidding his friend signed off the internet in a way that made him think of ending the friendship.
I can only imagine his ego, like all furries, is that fragile that you have to walk on egg shells at all times when around him.

I just started a conversation with a friend online.

Asked how he was, he said he was good, then asked me how I was. I told him that I'd been bored lately, hadn't had so much as a good friendly chat with anyone in the past few days. In addition, I had found out a cough I've had was actually bronchitis, which antibiotics were helping but it was still bad. I wait a bit, and his response is:

"Bah. Not fun. Well, I gotta head out somewhere today. Feel better."

And within two seconds, before I can even begin typing a response, he signs off.

What really gets me here is that the contents of the message made him THINK he was being nice to me. Three out of his four sentences were aimed at comforting me. But to say that and then immediately disappear negates everything and makes me feel like I'm not cared about at all and not even worth properly closing a conversation with.

I'm not sure what he could have done differently. Waited an additional minute? This isn't the phone. I know when I'm talking to friends online and someone has to go it is a near instantaneous sign-off. I never fault them, though. GOTTA GO BBL and they're gone. Shit, that's how I do it too. In fact I just assumed that's how everyone did it. Further, I always think they're probably off doing something cool. Good for them.
I am happy for them, though. They're seeing a movie or something. I can't imagine actually wishing to hold a friend hostage like that. Hostage to my bizarre tantrum, in the case of this furry.

And once again he proves that he may be unable to do that. This is not a case, as I see it, of active contempt. It's a case of not knowing how much of a fucking cunt you're being with one simple action.

Jesus fuck what was he supposed to do? When the entire situation could have been allayed by him sticking around an additional 30 seconds I think it's time to look at your definition of "contempt". To me, contempt is an open act of willful disobedience. I'm almost positive any decent dictionary would agree. The fact that you expect a friend's actions to be obedient to your will is a huge hint at what a monstrous egotist you really are.

We know cell phones cause cancer. That's because they are physical objects, which have been proven to cause cancer. LIFE CAUSES CANCER. We know. Stop spending money on finding the cause and cure the damn thing.

Thanks for the tip, doctor. Meanwhile, in reality, researchers have to discover the cause of something before they can treat it. It's like-- hmm. How to put this in terms you understand? I know. It's like making a fursuit with a dick hole cut into it so you can fuck people in the ass. You have to know what causes the suit (fabric and labor) before you can acquire one. Understand now?

If John McCain says one more fucking thing about him being tortured in Vietnam, I will chalk him up as having too much PTSD to even be a Senator.

The funny thing here is I bet if he went through a similar ordeal he'd never shut up about it. I didn't hear the speech but I'm sure it was probably tied to the war in Iraq somehow, and not just I WAS TORTURED VOTE FOR ME.

I'm not defending drinking and driving, but come the fuck on. You drink, drive, and hit someone. How many people here would spend the entire month or so it takes to get a judge to sentence you WALLOWING IN SELF PITY?

I'm not really sure his point, here. It seems to be that you can drink and drive, and then hit another person and you shouldn't feel bad about it.

Yeah, you should feel bad. But to the point that it consumes your life? No. These judges think it means these kids have 'bad character" just because they aren't fucking cutting themselves for the rest of their lives over a DUI.

Oh, okay. As long as you feel bad it's okay. But it shouldn't consume your life. Not, you know, hitting a woman hard enough to critically injure her. Go on with your life, because I know she'll be the same after this.
What my purple wolf friend seems to be flirting with is the notion of a bizarre ultra-free society where anyone can do anything they want and are trusted enough to not completely destroy society. While I'm sure a situation like that wouldn't necessarily doom the world, or even cause a huge anarchy (most people don't have fun raping and pillaging, or so I assume) it is probably a good thing that there are consequences for running people over. With a car. While drunk.

More and more, nihilism is appealing to me. It just seems so logical that there isn't shit we can do to change the fact that there is really no point to fucking anything. It's hard to find happiness at the moment when I'm just surrounded by a complete lack of existence. The world is becoming 0, no, off, void, null, negative, and maybe that'll change, but honestly I don't know how long I can last without flipping the fuck out.

I'd call him a threat to other people but I'm sure he's too much of a crybaby to do anything.
I suggest subscribing to a philosophy that doesn't make you look like an emo cunt. While zero may be nothing, it also represents infinite possibilities. While I'm sure you're far too unimaginative and lazy to do something about that, but you could do something with yourself.
Want to see some of his art? This contains MALE NUDITY so if you're easily offended by weird, shriveled animal dick-- I suggest getting out more.

I cannot get over the bizarre head. It looks like his head got crushed in a vice and now he's THE LAUGHING MAN and his dick is out because he has another brilliant plan to foil Marcel Dufarge.
Or maybe his plan is to put Detective Dufarge in a fursuit and fuck him in the bum.
Well at any rate it seemed brilliant on paper.
