Would you become your fursona given the chance?
Just a question that's been banging around in my head for a while. If genetic engineering goes really far and furries are able to actually become their fursonas, how many of you would want to do it? I'm curious to see your reasoning.

Nostalgia Critic on Disney Afternoon cartoons
An overview and reminder of just how great the late 80s and 90s Disney cartoons use to be. The Nostalgia Critic makes a lot of astute observations that I had never thought deeply about before.
In most cartoons for instance the hero is either righteous, or incompetent, but Darkwing Duck was a glory hunter, fighting crime for fame and gratitude. The critic notes he is like a child playing out his fantasies and that made me consider how the series was ahead of its time in predicting the man-child of today. Growing up on comics and cartoons, they now have the ability to re-enact their childhood using the skills they have gained as adults.
The critic also timelines the steady decline in quality from 1992 onwards. Goof Troop heralded the start of Disney trying to be ‘cool’, ‘hip’ and ‘relevant’, which had the opposite effect of being aged, cringeworthy and committing the sin of targeting an audience that existed on a marketer’s excel sheet. Even as a young tyke I could tell what Disney was trying to accomplish; speaking to ‘my generation’ when in fact my mind rejected it because I felt no affinity with Max. Nothing about his American suburban life felt relevant to my life in a British terrace house. It is telling how decades on when furs get nostalgic about Disney cartoons; DuckTales, Tail Spin and Chip ’n’ Dale’s Rescue Rangers will crop up more frequently in conversation than the likes of Goof Troop or Bonkers.
One final thing I noticed is how Disney released their cartoons differently between the US and the UK. In the UK they were broadcast Saturday morning on ITV under a variety of show formats. Subsequently I was confused when Nostalgia Critic did not talk about programmes such as The Little Mermaid, Jungle Cubs and 101 Dalmatians The Series, till I realised they were not part of the Disney Afternoon slot and in the case of The Little Mermaid was on a completely different channel.
Query about Collars
I'm curious as to know why people wear them. Do you wear one? When? Why?

College Humor: Furry Superheroes Get Even Grosser

A traditional drawing I did a while back.
Partial lurker, decided to introduce myself.
Hey all,
I know that there's been an introduction trend going on lately, so I decided to hop onto the train and introduce myself. I've been a furry for around 4-5 months, and I've really enjoyed my time here. I'm a 17 year old male living in Wellington, New Zealand. I am a gamer, I play D&D (nerd) and I play the piano a bit. That's about it. No prizes for guessing my fursona species. If there are any questions you would like to ask about New Zealand, or me in general, feel free to ask.

I'm so happy right now!
Sorry if I sound like a 14-year-old who's just having a crush, but that's how I feel right now. I just couldn't be happier. I've secretly dreamed of finding a soul mate who'd be tolerant of my furry side... my other hobbies and general weirdness.
And on Monday, I found him. We've hanged out on same forums and sometimes commented on each others messages, but for some reason before Monday I never asked asked him "hey, did you have Skype?". And yes he did. He loves suiting, plushies, doing electronics, collects these big huge-ass inflatables and plushies as I do, is a ham radio operator, about my age and my size to name a few. And a dragon! He loves dragons! Well, he's actually an Amur leopard now but was a dragon. He's so perfect!
I'm gonna marry him and eventually move to Canada with him! Gosh I'm so full in love! I was so given up all the hope! So was he!
This is one of those things that just don't happen outside of movies.
Towble, I love you and wanna marry you! Eeee <3

Is there just a general chat room for furries?
I've been wondering if there was because i like talking to people that have the same interests.

Dexter Ref Sheet (Finally got to making one after YEARS of doing this furry thing. Hope you like it. :3 )
Just realized something.
Often, we find ourselves asking one another for "furry" groups, like skype calls, chat rooms, forums, games, etc.
And now I know why.
The vast majority of us are generally very tolerant, kind, and loving.
So... anyway. I am running a Minecraft server on 1.7, as well as a teamspeak server. If anyone wants to chit chat with me or play a quck game of survival/skyblock/whatever send me a PM!

ROLLIN` SAFARI
What if animals were round? Here we have bumpers for international animated film festival ITFS 2013.
Any Furry GW2 players?
I recently got Guild Wars 2 and I know for a fact that people have more fun when they play together.
So I had the fun idea that a good group of us make new Charr characters and have some good times. Maybe make a guild and have a ball with it.
We can all have mics and stuff and chat and have good times...
Whos with me?
