I can attest that Ren fairs are fun as hell, although the roving pack of furries is always really awkward.

I'm over my furry hatred, but I cannot stress enough how ludicrously loving expensive Renn Fest is.

I've yet to go to a ren faire (I'd go if somebody else wanted me to go with them, just not interested enough personally to go), and I'm sure it's goofy as poo poo, but everybody is on the same page about it being goofy as poo poo so it seems like it'd be fine? But yeah, wear poo poo that fits and doesn't look absurd (for a ren faire). That outfit is bad, even in the context of a ren faire.

I've been to a few ren faires and had a lot of fun, but that was admittedly before running packs of furries were a thing Edit: I honestly don't give a single poo poo about furries it's more that I haven't been to a ren faire in 20 years so they may have changed somehow?

However, taking pictures of strangers without their knowledge or consent to make fun of on The Internet is kind of a dick move.

What’s the overlap with ren faires and furries? I’ve never been anywhere near a ren faire (I think they’re only an American thing?) but isn’t the point to recreate ye olde England?

I’ve never been anywhere near a ren faire (I think they’re only an American thing?) but isn’t the point to recreate ye olde England? Furries will generally take any excuse to costume- and presumably a ren-fair has a lot of other people in various costumes.

There's also overlap in general between stereotypically nerdy pursuits. The kind of person who owns a fursuit is probably also a Doctor Who and Jurassic Park fan who likes going to ren fairs and owns at least one corset.

There's a cosplayer I know who has a pretty bad lazy eye, worse than that guy. She just embraces it by making funny faces all the time.

The thing that gets me about Ren Faires is that all the stuff described sounds like good honest silly fun. Dressing up in a medieval costume, drinking beer/ale/mead, wandering about in the sun, talking in a silly accent and saying Milady, Forsooth etc. But Ren Faires also attract the kind of people to whom all of that is not goofy fun, but instead serious business(tm), and as such needs to be respected. You know, "it's a lifestyle" type folks, who do not appreciate the johnny-come-lately's who don't get it.

Having a dinner party and not taking that painting down, just letting guests discover it for the first time. One of my roommates in college had a giant poster print of someone's painting of naked Legolas (butt visible, no wang) that we also hung in the bathroom. Wonder if that thing still exists.
