If you go to a Downtown restaurant this weekend and spy folks wearing animal ears and tails, just go with it.
From Thursday through Sunday, Pittsburgh will host Anthrocon, a celebration of Furry fandom that has called the David L. Lawrence Convention Center its home since 2006.

O'Rly?
It’s less that the majority are perverts, and more that porn tends to rise to the top of image searches. Sad but true.
Mostly they’re just people who like getting together and acting silly with each other. Not much different than people dressing as superheroes or Star Trek characters, just that the fandom is animal-based.
Well, that’s like, your opinion, man. [/Big Lebowski]
My personal experience was pretty positive. But to each their own, I suppose.
A lot more than you might expect, honestly.
SJWism is more and more being mocked, at least in the communities that I still have contacts in.
Not much different than any other fandom, just cartoony.
Are we talking about the same thing? The human ponies dolls? I was only talking about not buying them because I didn’t understand the whole half pony half human thing. And another person said it was a purchasing gimmick.
I don’t think we are. I was talking about the furry fandom m’self. You know, fans of shows like Looney Tunes, or various other media with walking and talking animals. I thought that’s what you were referring to.
No, I’m all for freedom! Enjoy!
We are into the my little pony saga (daughter got me into it so I play with her). Only these hybrid pony people dolls freak me out. There is no need. It should just be ponies.
Yeah, I think the ones you speak of come from a spin off movie? If they’re canon. If they’re the ones I think of, they kinda unnerve me too, to be honest.
But some people enjoy, so they can watch it if they like, and I won’t. As you said, freedom!
I like collecting the ponies but not letting those freaky fake made up human girls with 2 pony traits into my home. Lol.
My kid’s gone as Pinkie Pie one year and Celestia the next (we went through A LOT of hair chalk for that one). I’m hoping I can con her into Chrysalis this year, because it’ll be a lot easier than the Voltron armor she’s agitating for.
I was married. I took care of her, never cheated on her, was a great father to our son. She treated me like dirt. Lying, poor financial decisions, etc. While she never made apple fritters she would make banana bread and bring it to her work. I usually got none. But I guess that’s what you get for trying to be a good guy and not the “alpha male” jerk the women seem to want.
Let me guess...
You're not real big on multi-tasking, are you?
What do you mean by that?
Just my way of helping you prove your premise.
I’m sorry for your trouble friend.
Lots of women are stupid. They don’t appreciate a good thing till he’s gone.
All I want is a Viking.
