Gromnir Posted August 22, 2009 Posted August 22, 2009 (edited) Take a tour around furaffinity.net and see if your sanity survives. "drink me" maybe Gromnir ain't any smarter than alice, but hanging 'round these boards, codex, and similar such places has taught us to pretty much avoid any unfamiliar link or site we sees posted. the magical "drink me" spell does not affect us.

I know a former zoophile furry lesbian who used to hallucinate a red werewolf who acts as some sort of guardian and control-freak-boyfriend-with-violent-behaviour . But now she's taken pills and she's seeing wonderful cute pink things. She also has a fascination with rats, skulls and painting horrific and gory images with, occasionally, her own blood. She's not the worst. By "know" I mean have talked/chatted with over the internet long enough to know her. "Alright, I've been thinking. When life gives you lemons, don't make lemonade - make life take the lemons back! Get mad! I don't want your damn lemons, what am I supposed to do with these? Demand to see life's manager. Make life rue the day it thought it could give Cave Johnson lemons. Do you know who I am? I'm the man who's gonna burn your house down! With the lemons. I'm going to to get my engineers to invent a combustible lemon that burns your house down!"
Purkake Posted August 22, 2009 Author Posted August 22, 2009 (edited) Do you have any idea what have you unleashed, Mikael? Less furries, more lipstick lesbians, please. Edited August 22, 2009 by Purkake
Slowtrain Posted August 22, 2009 Posted August 22, 2009 I'm sure it's a testament to my horribly sheltered life, but I have no idea what "furries" are. Nor do I want to know. The great fear in learning of something is that it can never be unlearned. :/ Notice how I can belittle your beliefs without calling you names. It's a useful skill to have particularly where you aren't allowed to call people names. It's a mistake to get too drawn in/worked up. I mean it's not life or death, it's just two guys posting their thoughts on a message board. If it were personal or face to face all the usual restraints would be in place, and we would never have reached this place in the first place. Try to remember that.
Purkake Posted August 22, 2009 Author Posted August 22, 2009 Cherish that ignorance for as long as you can. There's no going back.
Slowtrain Posted August 22, 2009 Posted August 22, 2009 One thing I've learned from my years on the internet is that even were I to outlive Methuselah, I would never be able to come up with the practices and obsessions and fetishes I have heard about on message boards over the years. I simply lack the wit and imagination. And frankly, I'm happy that way. Notice how I can belittle your beliefs without calling you names.

Purkake Posted August 22, 2009 Author Posted August 22, 2009 Yeah the internet is a crazy place, but all that stuff also makes it kind of special. Just knowing that it's there.

Azure79 Posted August 22, 2009 Posted August 22, 2009 On a completely unrelated note, the ME2 version of DA's blood armor looks sweet: Looks cool. Hope it comes in light, medium and heavy variants.
Bos_hybrid Posted August 22, 2009 Posted August 22, 2009 Looks cool. Hope it comes in light, medium and heavy variants. Crap I never though of that, it would be extremely annoying if it weren't. Mind you in ME, it was extremely annoying that all the armors looked better in the heavy variant.

HA! Good Fun! I agree. Seconded, but I wouldn't dramatize too much. Those "better gay romance" people seem to be in a minority and they are just loud. Besides Biowarians don't listen to them anyway - romance fetishists have mods made by Melirinda (you know the one that decided to rape Bishops character in NWN2 with some awful writing), and they actually like them. And dont except to be called a gaybasher, you are not some drama queen and a lot of gays and lesbians would agree with you(believe it or not). Going back on topic I refuse to believe that a mother would teach her child about furries. I hope they took that child away from her(or he run away with a circus troupe).

Its beyond irritating. Also, saying anything against them is a recipe to get buried under a ton of bricks. Not only that but any sort of harsher criticism on Bioware's recent games get spammed and locked up. With that sort of feedback its no wonder their games are getting worse and worse.

Guest Slinky Posted August 22, 2009 Posted August 22, 2009 (edited) I personally have nothing against gay people and I wouldn't mind at all if some game had a gay romance, if it is optional. But I really don't see any major gamestudio, like bioware, doing a gay romance anytime soon. Games are a multimillion business and I have no doubt in my mind what would happen if ME2 (or some other game) had a gay romance. There would be an huuuuuge hubalaboo when politicians, groups like "Mothers Against Everything" and "Lets Drink Beer and Teach Our Children to Shoot With Guns", religious people and media would start screaming with one voice. I really don't think Bio or any other studio is ready to go for that, especially on these financial times. Edited August 22, 2009 by Slinky
