OK, Tomorrow you wake up cover in Fur/feather/scales.. What would U do..
FA+

I mean, go to work and freak out customers... then come home and have all night sex with...
yeah... It would be pretty sexy.
and fur
Id have fur
Jump on any available males...uh...
That would scar my brother mentally, wouldn't it? Then I'll do it!! LOL!!
Hello!?!
Is this thing on? Is teh connection active? Yes?
Good!
As far as the fur...
Stare in wonder, freak out, run around naked on the front lawn for a few, then freak out some more...
Then I would look for a line of Body gloves, for I work in a kitchen.
...ok, not that hairy... I guess I'd probably walk around my room and stare at the mirror for a while in amazement...
does it come with a tail and claws and stuff? XD
because we'd all be rubbing our victory over the anti-furs faces without even doing anything low and degrading to the fandom.
just the fact that we'd exist for real and not in fiction.
(does this make any sense? because i've kinda confused myself to an extent.)
maybe we could manipulate them through the media.
by either
1) making ourselves look like a "bigfoot" type of myth and have people debate about our existence.
or the highly erratic' not recommended' low success rate option.
2) get ourselves so far into the media and public eye that we'd be too well known to be put into testing thus all the animal rights groups would stage a massive protest (due to our partial animal D.N.A.) if any of us were to be put into any kind of testing. therefore retaining our freedom and forcing the government to leave us to our own devices. but as i said the chances of that happening are very very very very very very slim.
i need to lay off the caffene big time
Upon waking, assuming I'd been shifted into the form of one of my many characters, I think I'd spend the first few minutes repeating in an unbelieving tone "What in the name of fuck HAPPENED?!?!" followed by "Did someone slip me drugs or something?"
Once the reality sets in, assuming my roomies aren't ALSO freaking out about me, I think I'd spend the time giving myself a detailed once-over, trying to alleviate the sheer shock and confusion. Then I'd make a phone call to a few of my more distant friends, especially one fellow who is particularly well-armed. That one I'd see if I can set up moving out to his place and living there, where there's a LOT of ability to NOT be bothered.
Honestly, from that point on I'd live my life with as little exposure to the rest of the world as possible until the hullabaloo settles, assuming it does. I'd hate it, but unless something changes, I'd be expecting for the rest of my life to essentially have to be a non-entity. Goodness knows it'd maul any hope of a social life, let alone realistically proving my identity to ANYONE.
Being turned furry would result in total loss of provable identity (provable in any legal, socially-meaningful way except to close friends), loss of any and all employment likely (since the government could easily make any like me a commodity too hot to handle), and certainly loss of all medical and social aid (pending social security, etc.) for the rest of my time on this world. Essentially, I would have just become a blank. A total blank. NOT a good thing.
Atop this mess is the entire quarrel of whether the changed can now be considered human and whether they would be given the appropriate rights/privileges/legal protections. I would suspect that in the interests of expediency and ease of maintaining control, most of the planet's governments likely wouldn't give such to the changed. It facilitates isolation, internment, any necessary experimentation and dissection / vivisection, etc. I won't even BEGIN to go into the religious ramifications. While many furs aren't terribly religious, goodness knows the majority of humanity IS, and thus the opinions of the mainstream and larger less-mainstream religions will MATTER, especially on the social end.
Honestly, I'd be expecting to live the rest of my life a scared, hunted, and essentially cut-off non-entity with only my few close friends for support, and myself in abject poverty relying upon the charity of others; a being with no legal rights and no legal standing. NOT a good life.
I hope this has been a satisfactory answer.
Yours,
