Cats is not a bad musical... but that shit being made into a movie is disturbing.... I think you might agree.
Edit: At least most furries do not pretend to be something they are not- they enjoy taking on an alternate persona (fursona). But at the end of the day they do not actually believe they are a Fox, or a Dog, or a wolf... or a [i][b]bear[/b][/i]
Heres a shameless copypasta from reddit!
So, for as long as I can remember, I've relentlessly mocked you guys for your strange hobby, porn, etc etc etc all stuff I'm sure you've heard before.
So one day, I was descending down the Netflix rabbithole as one is want to do. I watched two brony documentaries that mentioned furries - and I thought, there's gotta be a furry documentary. So I found one on youtube about furry conventions. And at the time, I thought it would be hilarious to go to a furry convention and make fun of furries doing the weird shit I assumed happened at furry conventions.
Lo and behold. I live in San Jose, and it's two weeks before furcon 2015. So my roommate get tickets, thinking it going to be a people zoo, freak show, etc. We are planning to go ironically, to mock people, bask in our own superiority, etc. I'm using etc a lot but I'm just trying to get to the apology faster.
So, the problem in our plan was that we went to the furry convention...and had a great -blam!-ing time
The dance off. Furry fandom by the numbers. Puppetry classes. The talent show. We had an un-ironic good time. We had a blast. We both agreed we'd go to another.
So, my sincerest apologies to all of you. While I still wouldn't identify myself with the furry fandom, I would consider myself "a little bit furry," or at least a furry ally :P So, that said, y'all keep doing you (not that you ever needed my permission) & -blam!- the haters. Sorry for being a huge jerk.

Yeah furries really don't deserve all the hate they get
