I'd have to say that's a good costume.

executioneer Apr 2nd, 2008 12:15 AM

man how much do people PAY for these things

Esuohlim Apr 2nd, 2008 12:16 AM

I refuse to believe this shit is real.

Dr. Octogonopus Apr 2nd, 2008 12:16 AM

It's a good costume, but still gives me the jibblies.

Sethomas Apr 2nd, 2008 12:28 AM

Better the jibblies than an erection, though.

executioneer Apr 2nd, 2008 12:31 AM

what if it gave you both

Dr. Octogonopus Apr 2nd, 2008 01:03 AM

Well.... damn, that's actually a good question.

DeadKennedys Apr 2nd, 2008 01:55 AM

I've heard of people paying in the 100's to 1000's

What the hell is Roxy holding in her hands? Trash bags? Breast implants? :x

Fathom Zero Apr 2nd, 2008 02:04 AM

Pom poms, most likely. Or weird pseudo-japanese blob monster cushions.

JIMMIE!? IS THAT YOU!? IS THIS DESTINY!?

This thread is messed up. Furrys are creepy as hell.

Just about every summer I go to a major Horror Con in Toronto. It happens to be held at the same place on on the same days as an Anime Con. The Anime folk tend to spill into the Horror Con and there is something really surreal about seeing Leatherface, a Sailor Scout and furry with huge breasts in the span of a few seconds.

Boing Boing had a pretty interesting documentary on the Furry fetish...

The majority of the fursuiters had kind of a tongue-in-cheek attitude about it. Like they knew it was retarded and they just rolled with it anyway because it was an excuse to act silly. Plus I mostly took pictures of the suits, and there was a lot of cool stuff there in addition to the weirdness, like a dude making some sweet chainmail jewelery and some of those little puppets that sit on your shoulder and move their heads. Plus the game room was sweet ;o

Oh and the babyfur I saw is apparently not a babyfur. He's actually a professional balloon artist who did a lot of kid's shows. ;o

I love that even a man who's made a name for himself in the world of freaks and weirdos is creeped out by furries :lol

This is part of why I haven't been to Balticon in years. I really don't want to go to a sci-fi con just to wind up rubbing elbows with the cast of Balto.

Balticon's one of the few cons that has a LAN room (or at least, did), and I kinda miss that ;<

I caught my friend drinking some of that the other day. Should I kill him before it's too late?

Hobo Renee Apr 2nd, 2008 06:56 PM

I'll never forget the time I was at a party and ran into a co-worker/furry hitting on a stuffed animal. Seriously, he was spouting off cheesy pickup lines to an inanimate object, and calling it a stud. Whatever happened to good old-fashioned sheep fucking?
