Appearances
7 years ago
I see people here doing everything they can to get attention, seeking approval of their fellows, and otherwise showing off. They do this through illustrations and drawing and fursuits that are designed to draw attention to themselves.
Well folks, you know what? If you only concern yourself with your appearance to others, it's rather indicative of how shallow and empty you are.
Do you want attention? Do you want people to notice you? Do you want people to like you? Then alter your BEHAVIOR, not your appearance. Let's take a fursuit for example: which are you going to notice more: a neon-glowing dragon winged MLP faced striped glowing half crux that's just walking around being boring; or a plain old dog suit that is doing stunts and tricks and making people smile and laugh?
See the difference?
You just want to show off. You want people to see you. And you do so by decorating yourselves, one-upping your fellow with colors or features that will get you "noticed" more than others. For those of you who fursuit, you spend gobs of money or otherwise buy fancy fursuits that you think people will notice.
But people like me, rare as we are, put on a fursuit to make people smile, to entertain, to GIVE SOMETHING to the community. We don't dress ourselves up to get notice, we change our appearance in order to give to others, to entertain, to inspire.
Sadly, you people have ruined it for people like me. I would NEVER fursuit in America or Europe ever on account of being associated with you people. Looking at FA, all I see are illustrations which show the world how sad, sick, lonely, and self-obsessed you are. You not only tolerate the worst shit from people in the fandom, you fucking welcome it. Cub art, scat, feeding and fat furries, corporate mascots, adopts, fucking eggs, and my pet peeve: YCH's. I mean, what the holy fucking fuck people?
Have some substance to your existence, some meaning to your otherwise wasted life. Stop trying to be noticed by how you look and start trying to be noticed by how (well) you behave.
