The Sometimes Confusing Witticisms and Perplexing Perspectives of the Legendary Coyote of Apache Lore.
Ha! And you thought this was just another Marvel promo. (thbpttttt!!!!) Anyways, my friend Gabi https://www.furaffinity.net/user/gabriellavedier/ did this after he got it from someone else. Seems like harmless fun so let's give 'er a go, ay?
Furry Quiz
With answers by me
1) Been in the fandom for... Longer than I even knew. Grew up immersed fully in cartoons (hey! normal kid!) that grew into me making costumes of my favorites for special occasions (yes, Halloween was, and still is, my favorite time of the year). My first 'fursuit' was Snoopy. Used a styrofoam cup for the nose mold and layers of felt for effect. It was awesome and perfect and I got a lot of compliments on it. That was in the 60's folks. I never gre (up?) out of that either. I still love cartoons and anime and the Muppets and movies like the Dark Crystal and Watership Down (my 2nd furry book growing up... my first was Perloo the Bold. You should find it for a good read sometime). I got into the Metal Hurlant (later Heavy Metal) magazine when it 1st came out. I bought every 1st edition D&D thing there was when it 1st appeared. Geek to the core. Furry heart and soul. But didn't know there was a 'furry world' out there until I was much older. Imagine my surprise.
2) Found the fandom how? - My best friend Gary (more family than friend). Who, BTW, also introduced me to Tapestries and this place. At the time I was playing Dhalgren (another morpg based off the book by the same name... and a great book too).
3) Chose your species cuz... Coyote. It speaks to my Apache heritage and to me.
4) Why/how did you choose your name? You'll love this. Theo is... well... sorta me. Sorta. Wizzago is a name I took for an online avatar/persona when I was trying to find a catchy way to say 'smart ass' or something along those lines. So I have this VERY old dictionary that weighs about 30 pounds and could be used as a lethal weapon... and I, on a whim, looked up the term 'wiseacre'. There, in the definition, it said the original term came from the name of a German Saint known for his practical jokes... Wizzago. So, yes... the name is stolen. (thbptttt!)
5) If you had to change your species, what would you choose? - Hmmm... Cat most likely.
6) What percentage of your friends are furries? - Online? Most of them. In the real world? Not many. I live in the buckle of the bible belt. I catch hell for dressing up like King Diamond on Halloween... can you imagine how they'd react to a furry??? I have some long distance friends but nothing local.
7) If you've been, favorite furry con, and why? - Just Vision Con and that was back when Gary was alive.
8) Got a fursuit? If no, why? - Did... it died. Now the fursuit I want is far more complicated than what's out there so it's gonna take a while to make/get made. Some things I'll have to outsource... most I can do myself. And, again, until I'm back on the road again far more often than I can be now, then there's no urgency to start/finish.
9) RP'ing is: Fun; Not my thing; A good way to "blow off steam." - A way of life. As kids we 'RP'd' all the time (I'll be the Tonto, you can be the Lone Ranger). When I got older it was Theater. Older still it was D&D. Even older still I worked as an entertainer in costume and character at a theme park. Then I went back to College and got into Theater again, preforming as Puck (perfect fit for me) in Midsummer Night's Dream. It was glorious.
10) Are you open about being a furry, i.e., if it comes up in conversation? - Yup.
11) Gay, straight or bi? - Straight. It's not like chances haven't happened for something else but I have never had any interest in anything else but girls (well... ladies now).
12) Ever kissed another furry? - Yup! On the park in costume. (She was my girlfriend at the time.)
13) Do you have adult art of your fursona? Not at this time and likely only as a nude. I'm not a prude but I like my romance.
14) Ever hooked up with another fur? Well... I'd have to say not really? I mean yes we both wore suits but, to her, it was part of her job (wearing the suit). To me it was paradise.
15) Opinion about murrsuits? - ??? Rought row raggy! This one I do not know about yet. Now I gotta go find out. =^O.o^=
16) Do you have a kink related to the fandom? Don't think so but would be open to try it. Except for the tail. Kinks in the tail hurt. =^@.@^=
17) Are you in any 18+ Telegram groups? No.
Th-th-th-th-that's all folks!!! (WB)

Fascinating. Especially the Wizzago part. It's amazing how many words and phrases come form the corruption of names and phrases that pass through different languages.

OP
I know, right? I know of several such as 'Mind your P's and Q's' which, along with 'Wet your whistle' comes from English pubs back in the days. The 1st one was what the bartender would call out when it was closing time (as in 'Mind your Pints and Quarts'). The second bit comes from further back as mugs back then were not glass but fired stoneware and some were made with a whistle in the handle of the mug and used to signal the bar maid that your mug was dry and you needed a fresh pour. That's just a few of many I know of. As for the part about my name, I have long looked around to find out more about this 'German Saint' and haven't found a thing... yet. Likely it is very obscure and much lost in time so finding our might require actual research instead of just internet stuff. Lots of info still in books that has never made it to the internet... yet.

Reading your answers again, I don't know if you did go looking, but murrsuit is the slang term for modified fursuits made especially for sex, having special openings or just being partials that are actively engaged in sex.

OP
I had but didn't post it. Had to think a bit since I cannot imagine a fursuit without access. I mean... when ya gotta go... ya gotta go. No friggin way I'm packin' a bag or a 'auto-john' in that thing! So I suppose those openings could be for two way traffic. :LAMO:
