The rather surreal scene played out in Times Square, after the costumed characters had posed for a photo with one tourist. As he moved away from the colourful characters, they began to follow him and demanded that he hand over money for the photo.

“Can you describe the perps, sir?”

These “characters” are extremely annoying. I have no doubt they are not paying royalties for use of these characters either.

That’s what you get for turning Times Square into Disneyland.

The Furries descend on Pittsburgh for an annual convention each Summer.

The only reason I can think of to go spend a few days in Cleveland.

Aren’t the images of these characters owned by the notoriously stingy Disney congolmerate? Why aren’t they prosecuting these losers for violation of trademarks or copyright?

I actually think this is a couple of rungs up from the window washers. At least the kids get a photo they will laugh about in the future.

LOL. If an actor portraying Minnie Mouse hassling tourists for money is illegal, then the entire Disney World and Epcot Center resort needs to be shut down. Its highway robbery there.

My bet is it’s part of an unannounced Obama economic stimulus plan. If it works as designed, you will see the squirrel spending freely and no longer holding onto his nuts.

Yep! That episode of CSI was a real eye opener. Never heard of the ‘Plushie and Furry’ fetishists before then. Thinking of the yiffing and scritching in a fur pile brings a really unwanted visual.

Come to think if it.....they should have just waited a few years and they would have had their fetish recognized as nothing more than a ‘lifestyle choice’. Ahh, Leftists defining the word ‘normal’ downward.
