QuoteMr Woods is what is known as a furry and Lenya is a "fursona" he has created, which he described as a "sort of space weasel".

It all went downhill from there.

It's almost as bad as the "Expose of Grunge"

Fursona - furry persona
Plushie - person who loves cuddly toys
Fleshie - a non furry
Fursuiters - People who dress in animal costumes
Yiff - furry porn
Skritching - scratching and grooming

I dont understand what does plotting to kill a person have to do with being a furry.

Furries are people, and sometimes people engage in plots to kill other people, its not exactly brain surgery. Though there are probably furry brain surgeons . . .

Some people who kill other people also drink Coca Cola. We need Fox to investigate this link.

Yeah, but it stops being mere correlation when you find out Dick Cheney planned the invasion of Iraq while in a fursuit.

So there.

Quote"The big misconception is that most furries are mainly obsessed with sex," says Mr Wolf. "While there is pornography in the fandom - 'yiff' as it is known - it is only a small part."

You know, the fact that it isn't all about sex just makes it EVEN MORE creepy.  If it was just about getting a piece of tail, I would probably understand. Kinda weird, but I get it. The fact that most furries "identify" with their animal persona means that they have something wrong in their head.

most furries freak out if you refer to it as sexual or mention yiffing, making them even funnier and easier to troll than they already are.... as impossible as that may seem

The fursona thing gets really strange when you're in Otherkin territory.

Otakukin, however, go so far over the Event Horizon of crazy to become funny again.
