I'm not even talking about fursuiting. Just basic roleplaying. Though I admit I find the fringe of the furry community to be more creepy and disgusting than the fringe of the RPG community.

I've come to the conclusion that pretending to be an anthropomorphized animal isn't really that much creepier than pretending to be an elf or a gnome or whatever.
I don't think that people really run around in dwarfsuits.

Thinking your girlfriend/spouse is sexy in elf ears is mild kink at worst. Thinking your girlfriend/spouse is hot dressed in a gadget from rescue rangers fursuit is mental derangement

Look, Elves can be sexy. Spock was sexy. Spock was just a space elf.

I guess I find roleplaying kind of goofy and embarrassing in the first place. Like, I am willing to suspend my disbelief to run my little man around in a video game and level up and that kind of thing, but when it comes to personally assuming the role in any way beyond this I get embarrassed even just thinking about it.
And the more exotic and in-depth the roleplaying, the worse it is. Roleplaying a historical figure is bad enough, but roleplaying, like, an anthro-ocelot?
Ugh.
It makes me want to just crawl under my chair at the thought of it.

If you're going to have call centers in foreign countries answering your calls, at least train the people so that they know what the fuck they're talking about. I just got told that I needed to wait for a firmware update to my port replicator; I hung up before I remembered that port replicators don't have firmware.
Yea I tried to file a bug with samsung/sprint that my phone overwrites text messages if I get more than 1 at a time. Their solution: have the phone reset at a sprint store even though I've gotten many many firmware updates and the phone still has the problem. I gave up on trying to report the bug because they were such a PITA.

No, I am not really communist. Yes, it is weird that I use this name.

Even as an RPG gamer, I have to kind of agree with this, though I suspect our individual thresholds are different. I can't stand playing D&D with people who insist on talking with elaborate flourishes and basically doing bad renaissance acting all night. I want to play the freaking game.
That being said, I don't actually see an issue with any of it, up to LARPing and potentially beyond, if it suits the participants. I find it personally embarassing, though. No idea why.
What happens when our kids get old enough to Google us, or find out screen names we've used in the past?
This just occurred to me and the implications are terrifying.

The cheese thread is a perfect crystalization of d&d. People are either being pretentious about French cheese and arguing about raw cows milk and pasteurization or saying that canned cheese is awesome and Swiss cheese is good for sammiches

I sort of get the whole furry thing to some degree, but I have NEVER understood the obsession with sexualizing children's cartoon characters.
At no point have I ever thought: "It would get me so aroused if I saw Bonkers D. Bobcat having rough anal sex with that enormously fat cop."
Well, except for just now.

Why can manufacturers like Dell not just compile an .exe with all the drivers for their product, instead of making me use their terrible web interface to download and run them individually?

I think that furries are subhumans and should be captured and lobotomized and sterilized.

So have you interjected yet to tell everyone how their taste in cheese is wrong and how EuroCheese from the 80's is the only cheese that matters and that no cheese would taste like cheese?

Didn't you larp?
Nooooo
I did not larp. Ever.
Hahaha, why would he think this of you, then?
I have no idea but it bothers me. Like, a lot.
Precisely how I would feel if someone figured I larped...

I would have called it my steed.
It would have given me +2 armor class.
Mexican Wrestling highlights are surprisingly entertaining.
I'd wager the knit kimono.
fuck your couch.

It certainly implies issues.

You look like a larper.
Ooohh shit.
God I wish she had never posted that picture.

I mean you had like 3 jackets on the other night.
Who does that?
This is what he says.
But he is definitely a fur-enabler.

I looked fuckin fly, man.
Blazer over a sweater.
Like a goddamned model.
Unimpressive.
It kind of makes sense for that girl on the eSurance commercials though.

that purple-haired tease
Well, yeah, because Erin Esurance is a total babe.
pretty sure I just experienced super dynamic cooking time.
So basically the Internet?
