Define Cynical Fan Forums

Well a new club started at school today the Anime Club. Well I went there and I have to say I was one of the least stereotypical people there (which wasn't really a problem <!--emo&:P--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... tongue.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tongue.gif' /><!--endemo--> ). Sure I had an overcoat and wore black jeans (my everyday clothing) but I was also wearing a Ramones t-shirt (not that the pinstripes matter) the fact was I felt a bit out of place even though I enjoy anime (you'll be surprised how many wiccans and goths watch anime...well not so surprising). It was disorderly and my suggestions were virtually drowned out when there was 20 people there (they only expected about 10). Well we agreed upon jobs within the club. I am part of the review/discussion group to critique anime (and maybe manga to). Well they also insisted that at least some of us cosplay (not quite sure about that yet). They also suggested we go to an anime con that apparently is in Pittsburg, Pennsylvania... How a bunch of high-schoolers are going to rent a hotel a couple miles from home... I don't know... Well now you get the feel of this. well someone suggested we start a manga webcomic, then it hit me. I began asking people if they knew what a furry was and one person even showed me a drawing of a hyena she was doing, there were about four people who knew and one of them even reads furry webcomics. Its amazing how you can find unexpected people in unexpected places...

Anime con in Pittsburgh? What's it called?

Haa, that's great! Wish I knew other furries in real life. A conversation I had recently with my housemate, Andy, went something like this;<br><br>Andy: Thom, what are you drawing?<br>Me: Picture of me.<br>Andy: Why are you a wolf?<br>Me: Err, too many vitamins?

My conversations typically follow this path:<br><br>PersonB: What are you drawing?<br>Me: A cat person thingy.<br>PersonB: How cute!<br>Me: ... Yeah. Cute... Sure...

Darn, I was thinking that we might have some insiders in the White House <!--emo&:'(--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... ns/Cry.png' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='Cry.png' /><!--endemo-->

I'm not quite sure what the con is called... I think it started with a "B"... And yeah its nice to know people who know what a furry is. And I thought Bush was an anthro... He looks enough like a chimp...

Basically anybody in an anime club knows of furries. I met a furry there. Made me realize I wasn't all that much of one. I was just interested in the art.

If it;s yoru schools Animie club that is puttign on the con and if it will be osmtly atended y people in your schools Animie clu then why not have it at your school. There isnt; much reason to ret a hotel for a group that meet sreuglarly at your school. Well there is but it woudlnt; cost as mcuh money. I'm tired. Talkign fro me right now is bad.

I know someone in my class who knows what furries are.<br>He doesn't like them because they keep invading the game channels wanting to take over the place, he's sick of them.<br>Once when my friend came over he saw a "FURRY" category in my links page and asked "What is that!?" in a suspicious tone so I showed him the clean stuff saying "basicly people who really like that kinda stuff, half-animal sorta thing, just like you got yer anime lovers." and he was cool with it.<br><span style='font-size:3pt;line-height:100%'>Good thing the vore/macro/stuffing links are on the bottom.</span>

One of my best friends in highschool I met in a computer lab where we found we had a great common interest in programming. We hung out all the time and went to parties together, stuff like that. It wasn't until 2 or 3 years later I found out he was a furry, which I admit surprised me. It led me to believe that this furry phenomenon is a lot bigger than some people think.

When we were in Multimedia screwing around on the net cuz we couldn't do our work on the Macs my friend randomly said "Furry! Go to a furry website! Now!" and that kinda stunned me cuz it came out of nowhere... then the bell went and it was time to go to next class.

I know a few people who know what a fury is: let's see:<br><br>Tavis, Felix, Rooster, Octan, Bocaj Claw, likeafox, holyman83, ect. ect.
