Ok I'm confused, if you're saying that sexual assault is a huge part of being homeless, and he's saying homeless women are extremely vulnerable to sexual assault, why is he a poo poo human?

I'm not trying to be a dick, I'm genuinely curious why you think he's poo poo when it seems like you guys basically agree on that point.

I know we talk a lot of poo poo about furries in this thread, and on SA in general, but the story about the Syrian refugees being at the hotel with the Furry con is really a nice story. Though I'm sure the VancuFur people probably have rules and poo poo about walking around with lovely diapers in the public areas of the hotel and other common sense rules about con behavior.

Man, I feel bad for the dude with the big bow on his head because he seriously thought he was some kind of big deal and could get people to chant at him, but at least he had the self awareness to realize he was being cringe worthy and ran off.

Holy poo poo the kid freaking out over Super Mario 64.

I find it way creepier when they have British accents because it almost makes it sound respectable. Though I honestly think the whole Brony thing has died down because it seems those involved with the show have realize that little girls no longer can safely enjoy their show without some giant man child clopping to it.

I think it's a single work split up into 5 volumes because binding a single work that size isn't practical. From what I remember the internets telling me the "book" is something like 600k words or some terrible poo poo.

Fandom, cosplay and all that shite are just universally terrible and worrying.

Enjoy whatever stuff you want, but once you start writing wish-fulfillment books about it or dressing up as the characters then there is something deeply wrong with you and your interest in this thing.

Let's say charitably that the average person can read 250 words a minute. It would take you over nine straight days of reading to finish this "book" about the story mode of Super Smash Bros Brawl.

Or it would take you that long, except my numbers were outdated. The fanfic was finally completed in 2015 and is now 4 million words long
