~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Vrghr Dragonwolf
Yoinked from Vixyy, Walt, and a host of others:
Convention attending: Megaplex
Days staying: Thursday - Monday
Who are you rooming with? Self, off-site
Where will you be? Convention Center for Con stuff, Homewood Suites for room.
How is the best way to find you? Look for the old fat greybeard wearing bright shirts and a fedora or silver “bucket” hat with furry ears, on a blue scooter, probably causing scooter mischief with Vixyy or Clayton
What do you look like? Jolly fat old fellow with long hair and long grey beard wearing VERY LOUD shirts
What is your gender? ' Vrghr’s a guy
How old are you? Antique or Ancient, take your pick. Wuff will be 68 this year
Can I talk to you? Certainly. Beware, wuff is prone to ‘war stories”
Can I hug and/or snuggle you? Wuffy enjoys hugs, especially from fursuiters. Please don’t hang on so long it’s considered a “Snuggle”
Are you nice? Wuff tries really hard to be so
If I see you, how should I get your attention? 'Hey Vrghr (its pronounced like “Burger” with a “V”), or Heya Wuffy! Or “Dang, wuff, get a vowel!” will all generally work. NOTE: Antique wuffy ears don't perform at their best, you may need to try more than once to get Vrghr's attention
What can we talk about? Pretty much anything. If we start getting into contentious territory, Vrghr will politely ask to change the subject
Can I get you something to drink? Soda, if the free refills run dry, thank you. Nothing harder, thanks
Can I take your picture? If you’re sure your camera can handle the view without fracturing, you can take the risk. Wuff appreciates advance notice, when possible
Attending any events? Opening/Closing ceremonies, Dessert Social, Sponsor’s Luncheon, are all sure things, along with multiple other panels. BUT YOU WILL DEFINITELY FIND ME SUNDAY MORNING AT THE GRAYMUZZLE BREAKFAST! - Sunday morning at 0700 in the diner, with Vixyy, Helix, Clayton, Fcneko, and others, just like last year.
HOPE TO SEE YOU THERE!

I'd have to answer- "Only when I HAVE TO BE!"
Imma have to get a sign that reads something like, "I have fleas/rabies/scabies" or something, should I ever actually manage to attend a Con? Just to keep peeps OFF'A ME! lol
Now, cordial, polite and mature folks? Happy to meet and socialize wif them ALL DAY/NIGHT long!
;-P
Text varies from dealer to dealer, but the common thread is:
Green = Hugs Welcome
Yellow = Hugs? Ask First!
Red = No Hugs!
There are other versions of interactive badges, too, for many circumstances. Wuff's sure you could find one or more that fit.
If not, there are dealers doing custom work to tailor one to your exact needs.
Hopefully this wuff meets the Cordial, Polite, & Mature (definitely got mature covered, hehe) category, as Vrghr would love to meet you if you managed to attend one of the cons wuffy's at.
Really, MOST of my gruffling and whuffling is directed at those with an utter LACK of societal courtesies. ANY stranger grabbing onto me (And I HATE BEING SURPRISED in such ways, by those I KNOW, just to clarify/warn!), is likely to experience any and all forms of CQC/Pretzeling poses, wrist/elbow/knee locks and/or even a very firm, VERY dedicated choke-hold, before they even have a clue wtf's happening to THEM, for their,,, let's call it,,, 'Exuberance?' (That's me, being polite. Imma work-in-progress, no doubt!)... ;-P
I just live by the 'No-touchie' principle with strangers. I can't handle tight crowds now, and barely could even when I ENJOYED going to live concerts/bars/assemblies. Now? EEP! lol
For sane folk? People who still do the respectful 'Meet-and-Greet,' making eye contact, a verbal acknowledgement, and THEN offered handshake? I'm perfectly happy and fine with that!
The leaping leprechauns however?
:-D
