FURRY DOCUMENTARY? ASKING ME TO GO ON?
15 years ago
SO! I finally got a response on my Pounced.org personals ad!!
Unfortunately, it's from a dude.
LAME!
But, lo and behold:
Hey Nathan,
My name is ***** and I'm a producer in New York working on a tv documentary about furries and the furry fandom. And since everybody asks, no I'm not a bot, and yes I am a real person (you can google my name). And no this isn't a mass email because I actually read your profile and see that you're into Billy Joel and any kind of food. I guess that means any good food!!
If you're into it, I'd like to talk more about all things furry and definitely want to hear your story. Sounds really cool.
Thank you very much in advance, I hope we get the chance to connect soon.
J*** *********
OOOOH! I can't wait to be a pariah within this lame little fandom for saying the wrong thing!
But all honesty aside, he's a smooth talker. I like being important. However, I wanted to see what
Dragoneer said about these guys.
1. They were kicked out of FA:U
2. From what 'neer told me, their documentary is, "I Have a Fetish"
3. I can get off on real people with real vaginas and boobs, so I don't qualify for having a fetish. I also would only have fursuit sex if straight sex was provided alongside the suit. <:3 (TMI, but whatever)
4. His firm works for MTV
So, let's look at the recipe here:
1. Documentary's title inclines towards "I am different from you"
2. They're not picking out hot chicks, they're picking out bearded men
3. Does work for MTV and VH1, who've had 'great' exposés on furry.
So, I'm going to be polite and tell them I don't think I'm a fit because I'm probably not good TV.

And real, he's spamming like half the fandom with this crap. They're desperate to find somebody.
I wonder if so many people are ignoring him due to the Tyra Banks situation.
got nothing against it but COME ON!!! you really just said that on national tv D:
*pulls out his 11-foot pole while looking at brainsister.*
Oh, I'M sorry, but you will go home with our lovely consolation prize!
Now they ALL know who to google and supplicate to! D:>
Dammit..
But your friend got it too-- let's get this word out.
Should we squealch them? I dunno, I feel like it's like some lame media blackout by us. But on the same vein, when we can't guarantee a fair shake..
I'll take your advice, but the next badger I'm fuckin'! D:>
BADGER FEVER
(PS, I'm impressed at how well that pun lined up.)
And, so that this comment isn't total spam, yeah, I'd stay away. This seems like a "hey, look at the freaks" kinda video.
This isn't a mass mail because I checked on two random facts about you and extrapolated your entire personality from that point that I can use for butter-up value. It's like I know you already!!
Though he was wrong-- I like ANY FOOD.. excluding one raw salmon a friend's mom served.
The only foods I really hate with any sort of passion tend to be any that require onions or coconut...which admittedly eliminates over half of most recipes I know. T..T
not-completely-cooked (Raw) fish that was not sushi-grade,
placed in a sauce that .. didn't taste right..
I like sushi like crazy, but.. not the same!
And you hate onions and coconut!?
You're coconuts!
Hope he hasn't been harassing people though.
I feel so... abused just for my looks! *sobs*
there there. the bad man is gone now... he's gone.
That's it! I wish I could find a clip of it, hm. D:
Once burned, twice shy. ;/
Also: I have porn pictures of a girl being fucked by her plushies who grow dicks! I suppose that's quite reasonable-- thank you :D
lol ;)
"Everybody who's a furry feels a spiritual kinship with an animal"
or "Everyone who's a furry likes furry porn" or something.
Ah well D:
Sadly, yeah, it does look an awful lot like a set-up. Besides, I'd just make it worse being a babyfur. xD
but chances are, they're the ones who'd have all the power over the editorial direction of the work. :/ What I say would just be mincemeat.
I mean one of the biggest controversial points in said fandom is fursuit sex. I've known a lot of fursuiters and so far none of them do that, or are even remotely interested. It's a really small percent of people that are, and yet the WHOLE lot of us are portrayed as only being able to get off that way. It's pretty sad.
I still am trying to remember that clip from the simpsons, where what Homer said for an interview is twisted around due to editing into something completely different. The clock changes in the background, too..!
But of course, it's gonna get spun wrong no matter how you look at it. The only way to make a furry documentary that doesn't suck is to not play the fetish/different-than-the-rest-of-the-world card, but instead pass it off as an inter-community production that just so happens to get airplay. Load it with badassery, raves, and of course charity events and the kindhearted stuff too. Give it 90's-era skateboarder fodder camera angles, FUCKYEAHTOTALLYEXTREMEDUDE splash graphics, a metal and dubstep soundtrack for the cut scenes, and randomly interject pranks and crazy crap. In other words...copy Camp Kill Yourself. Heheh.
Good you are avoiding this.
unless they blur it or cut your shirt out, sigh.
Seriously, I know I would goof it up so I would turn it down. But I do like bearded men.
Then seeing how I'm both fat and socially awkward, it would be probably be further fuel stereotypes about furries rather than making fun of them.
Yeah, sounds lame and creepy, I wouldn't either...
