I've never understood the furry hate. People treat it as a kink akin to someone being into taking a shit on your stomach. Except somehow worse.

It's not my thing, but I've known people who are into it and they've all been nice people. I hung out with a bunch of them one of the times I was working at a con and they were fun people to hang around when they were out of their fursuits. And yeah, I didn't quite know how to react to them when they were in the fursuit, but I just stayed friendly. That seemed to be fine with them.

Furries are odd fellows, but I would never say anything against them ~~for fear of all IT infrastructure spontaneously trying to kill for the rest of my life~~ because it's just odd, not harmful. De gustibus non disputandum est.

Right. They're just into something weird. No big deal, lots of us are into weird things. The weird stuff I'm into doesn't involve spending lots of money or wearing a costume that must be very hot after a short period of time, but if that's what does it for you, cool. I'll be over here watching hours of old public domain movies and industrial films.

I remember a story about the US Military taking notes for the cooling solution of a certain fursuit.
