To me the larger disconnect is “fandom” itself. There are lots of things I like but I don’t engage with any fandoms because that’s a completely foreign way to engage with art to me. Plus furrys are actually less pathetic than most fandoms because at least they’re making up their own characters, if they were just…

I like my Aeropress for making iced coffee and I use it when I run out of Melitta filters but it smooths out the coffee too much, if you hate bitterness it could be great but it’s not for me.

I understand they might sometimes…

I don’t find mouse and keyboard to be any fun at all, if it became common on console I wouldn’t play console shooters anymore. And console shooters are what I spend most of my time playing. I think it’s a matter of survival, ban keyboards or give up the console business because there’s no reason for them to exist if…

They’re clearly talking about dressing as fictional characters in the context of a fan convention. You might as well say nobody invented “filk singing” because people had been writing funny songs for ever.

Suffice to say they’re morons.
