wow nice its really good and its true how the lyrics are something that you see people spouting on a daily basis. keep up the amazing work and hope to hear more.

You won't be hearing more from RhubarbCub. Hm. Wonder where else this sort of thing might pop up?...

Aww this is sad, even my non-fur friends liked your songs. Well, good luck with whatever your doing next with your life. You will be missed, I wish there was something i could say to make you stay to stay, but i don't know you that well do to it :P.

Anyway, good luck and goodbye.

-Yume Kitsune the Dream Fox

It looks like "maintaining a rage-quit" is what I'm doing with my life, so I'll be actively quitting for the foreseeable future!

that was so awsomely awsome it mad me cry lol

Oh, no, please don't cry! What can I do to make you stop crying?


...uh, other than returning to the fandom, of course?

Ohnoes!

Ohyezz!

?! (where's an interrobang when I need one most?)

I can honestly say I've never heard the term "interrobang".

http://www.interrobang-mks.com/

I must've forgotten to mention that, this is positively phe-freaking-nominal!

I learned something new!!!

LOL I have that effect on people. :P

Hehe it's basically an upside down treble clef.

Revisiting and old favorite here hehe

As I said on youtube; you blow me away. tremendously. I'm honored to be on the same WEBSITE as someone with such outstanding talent! Golly, I really hope I get to talk to you in person and hang out with you at a con sometime, because you're such an inspiration for my theater side. You make me miss the stage so much, ack! I wanna get up there and belt out a few bars of music with ya!

.... but oh, wait, that's right. None of that's gonna happen, since you're leaving the fandom. Sad. :(

Well, that's technically true... but hey, I haven't left musical theater! So we can still meet there someday! Unless, you know, I pull the same ragequit crap with them that I've pulled with the fandom.

well, I'd better grab my chance now and get a performance in with you!

Find a brave producer/director who wants to do a new musical about a comic book rabbit!

'I'm staging a rage-quit.'

The background singers presence make that line so hilarious. XD

The funniest thing to me is that the singer (Ashley Rose Smith, soon to be heard on the JBMD cast album) didn't even blink when I told her what I wanted her to sing.

That's professionalism right there. :D

I'm surrounded by it

That was rather entertaining indeed.

Had not heard of you before, and now have. Will have to look into your other pieces. :3

Well done.

I'm learning just how many fans one can make while rage-quitting! Oh, the psychology of it all is delicious.

This. It's really funny, isn't it? It's when someone ragequits that all of a sudden everyone comes out of the woodwork to say "please don't go!". All the people who lurked on the account, never commissioning or commenting or anything.

If you ever do feel the need to fully quit the fandom though, Rhu, this would be the way to do it - a hilarious song full of references the audience will eat up and a really beautiful polish to the recording.

you will be missed...

V.

I already miss me! I wish I'd come back!

best thing ever.

I second this... first.

Furst (Irony)

You misspelled "evar".

I am so sorry...

You are forgiven.

Catch you at FWA then?

Genious song, bro! XD I really like this kinda music.

I just hope this leaving thing is just supposed to be a "jus´ kiddn´" - thingy...
...whoa, look at the many "just"s...

...and if it isn´t, where can we find you instead, "quitter"?

My upcoming journal will explain all. As the sign said in the opening sequence of RHPS, "Be just and fear not".

Ooooo-kay then...

See?

Quitter!

^ <3

But you must admit I do it with panache.

You really like that word, don't you?

I like panache with maple syrup and a lit--
no, wait, that's pancakes. Never mind.

LOL ^__^

I LOVES IT

You still posting??

You know it!

Rhubarb the Bear. Hmmmm From Cub to Bear? How about Rhubarb the adolescent Bear?

Why do furries post stuff like this? if ut going to quit the fandom. Post in jurnal So no one can see Kthankx :)

Nobody reads the journals? NOW you tell me! T____T

exsacly

My next journal (which will also be the last RhubarbCub journal) explains all. As the door closes, a window opens... and I shall be jumping out of it and landing in a thorn bush. So stay tuned.

sounds fun...

Oh, it is.

Sounds painful is what it sounds like. Defenestration followed by prickly thorn bush? Ouch!

Phoo! I've been wasting so much time journal-reading when I could have been journal-ignoring!!!

awesome song, sorta reminds me of times where I see oh..I dunno...stupid journals or inbox messages ranting that they're leaving. Nice to have a little song with my sorrow...lol @ rage quit x3. I'm glad I was able to catch this last au revoir.

I'm glad I was able to do it! That last note took all I had...

Hm... I'm using all of my detective skills (and secret supply of spidey senses) to come to the conclusion that this IS a joke and that you're NOT leaving the fandom. Or at least I very much hope that that is the case.

How do I come to this conclusion you ask?
Oh, you didn't ask that? Well I'll tell you anyway:
Ahem; 1. You released a full song featuring other members of the fandom and including a lot of references to other furries which was 2. debuted at a furry con. 3. You've only just introduced your 'better half' to the site, and he too is active in releasing music. 4. You're still beta-testing your nice new fursuit 5. You haven't deleted your gallery 6. You haven't made a journal about it and finally 7. You have no other way of contacting your very highly valued consultant on Englishy matters for things happening or taking place in the English Englandshire (That's me, by the way)

...

PROOF! I hereby summarise that you are NOT leaving the fandom!

All your "proof" is spurious and lacking in rigor. Except for #7, which is frightening in its truthiness.

And yes, the next journal explains all...

"Can you make it sound like Queen?"
(wall-of-guitars-larity ensues)
Hilarious!

That one bit is why I had to do the studio version. I could never pull that off live.

No, don't do it.

Sorry, I already did it! As you can see, I am no longer involved in the fandom in any way. Coming back to see who took notice that I left does not count, naturally.

But feel free to keep begging me to come back! It's music to my drama-driven ears.

come back! come back! come back! Your music make me so happy!!

Moar! MOAR! MOAR!!!!

Really, moar!

OMG I feel so like this right now, but I'm not leaving quite yet. I'm tired of furry drama too, its like they don't have enough drama already.

My little piece of advice... when you have a large quantity of stuff you don't want, try to dispose of it with as much style and aplomb as you can. That's how this song came about.

I'm thinking of doing a cover of this song if you don't mind. I'd like to show my friends how I feel too.

Go for it!

If this wasn't so hilarious, I'd be very, very sad you're leaving.

As it is, I can't stop laughing.

But you will be missed.

I already miss me!

Sooo.... now that that's out of the way... What's your new account?

You see, based on SliceOfDog's aforementioned logic, in the company of the words "ON THIS ACCOUNT" in your writeup, not to mention Poes law being mentioned in your tags, which means it's much more likely to be an overexaggerated parody, and you made a MASSIVELY AWESOME song that's mocking itself so much nobody can stop laughing, etfc. etc.... And you know what?

All of this can mean only one thing...

"Rhubarb Cub" is leaving the fandom.

YOU, however, are creating a new account! Please! Please? PLEASE!!!

And I think I forgot something in there, but whatever. I just hope I'm right.

Nah, you're totally off base. Nothing to see here. Move along.

Hah! I was almost exactly right! I just hadn't seen the other account until three hours after you made the journal! Which times my post rather unfortunately, really, considering it was an hour after that... But anyway... Yay!!! We're all glad to hear you'll be hanging around, I'm sure.

Does this mean you're not going to be performing (Julie Bunny Must Die!) any more!!

Oh, hell, no, it doesn't mean that! All Julie plans are full steam ahead! Be not fooled by my silly little drama-inspired publicity stunt (which is really working well, I must note).

Thank the goddes!! you scared me. I love Julie Bunny.

I'm trying to place where, musically, this song would most fit, and I keep on thinking of the movie/musical Grease. Other than that, DON'T LEAVE!!!

You win the big prize! My musical inspiration for this one was definitely "Beauty School Dropout". Those 12/8 ballads will always hold a special place in my heart.

Oh, and too late, I've already left!

*Grabs Rhubarb and tries to tie him to the FA flag pole using licorice.* Now you can't leave.

Licorice is very easy to slip out of. Just sayin'.

And it's edible, for the most part. Just sayin'.

are you back yet?...

Not yet!

Almost!

LOL!!

Um....people....it's a joke...

But it's much much moar than a joke! It's also a publicity stunt!

SHHHH!!!!

All rage quits are publicity stunts.

Except when they aren't. Nyahh, got ya there.

You finish that parody yet?

Not yet. Trying to find something that rhymes with "Immature attention whore."

This is going to make me laugh ALL FREAKIN' DAY LONG!!!!! Oh my sides...

ROLF!!!!

I was going to ask about the parody myself....then I read your reply to Cosmik & did at least 10 mins of nonstop laughing!!!!

So.....how about now???

Adios amigo you will be missed and soo wil your lyrics

I'm so sad. If only, somehow, I could pop up somewhere else, in a new (or at least gently refurbished) identity...

If anything that would be a surprize

A truly shocking occurrence!

Nice song! Sorry to hear you go. But as another song goes, it was just one of those things eh? At least I still have a few of your songs on my iPod. :D

You can still keep them on your iPod! You'll just need to move then from a "furry" playlist to a "mundane" playlist, or a "definitely not furry anymore" playlist. Yeah. That'll work.

I have no playlists on my ipod. All of the music is just in one homogenous mass.

Dude...this was freaking amazing.

This will be the last submission I ever put on this account. Contrary to my lyrics, however, I'm not actually purging my gallery.

But...why?

My next journal will explain all!

FA has a theme song now! you're a genius

Wow, it IS a great FA theme, isn't it? Wonder if Neer would put it as a permalink on the front page, to acclimate new members to what they can expect?

Stands the test of time lol... *prepares for TFF 2015*

oh, and man (or bear) I must say I so dig the drum sound. Big bass drum sound, natural snare.

Loved hearing this at MFM ^^

Loved doing it! Even if I did mess it up slightly. That was a freakin' great crowd. In the video, you can see Tyger Cowboy sitting off to the side at one point with this look of "omg I can't believe he's singing this" on his face.

XD hah, I spotted how awesome you were before this. Still think you can't move a bunch of CDs? ;)

Oh, we will talk soon. The JBMD cast album is the nest thing on my plate!!

Yes, the cast album needs to come out before you go, so we can all glory in its majesty....

At the moment I'm glowering at its unfinishedness.

*pats you on the back* Come on, pal. There's a great big world out there you've never seen because you've had your lips firmly planted on the fandom's ass for so long. I'll show you around and make sure we hit all the good stuff.

The real world isn't all that bad..... no really! It isn't! :)

Actually, yes, it is. I lived in "the real world" for 45 years before I discovered the fandom. The expression "the devil you know" comes to mind.

YOU'VE BEEN CURED. RUN WHILE YOU STILL CAN

I would, but I'm very very busy replying to all these people who are making comments about how I've left the fandom! This is turning into a full-time job!

This was beautiful. I love all the shout-outs. It makes me believe in community again.

Honestly, if this were your last hurrah, what a note to go out on it would be!

Also, I just realized that "leaving the fandom" has the same cadence as "My Little Pony". This will not end well.

It does?!?! I'm doomed.

You just won the "got the whole point of the thing" award.

Trust me, I was having a heart attack until I actually listened to it.

Well, until I scrolled down and saw MaxGoof's comment, anyway.

*duct-tapes you to the FA flag pole* now you can't leave. *hugs*

ARRRRGH! I didn't think about the duct tape! I have no defense against that!

yeah most don't have a defense to the duct tape. If that didn't work, the next plan would had been coating you in peanut butter.

So why are you leaving?

No one will miss me if I don't leave.

Haha, heartless man! So you WANT people to miss you? Interesting answer I must say. XD

Welp, I thought your stuff was awesome! If you plan to continue pursuing your music talent (which you totally should) I think you should let us know (or at least me) 'cause I've always found your things to be quite impressive!

I hope leaving the fandom gives you the results you're expecting! And don't worry, you WILL be missed! Good luck!

I'll definitely let you know.

Well, since I ceasar leaving, I baked you some cupcakes for your journey. They're magically delicious

You're begging for a trip to the punitentiary.

I'm not going if they don't serve pancakes versus oh, I don't know, say waffles

So does this mean no Oklacon? :/

YES OKLACON!!! YES, OKLACON! Nothing will stop the bunny love. :)

Awesome! Can't wait to see everyone there! :D <3

Is this what you meant by changing your name or whatever? x3

Nah.

Suttle

Got tired of ppl linking your name with babyfurs? xD

What a way to go out!
Your work will continue to be appreciated :)

My work will continue to be foisted upon the unsuspecting!

We'll miss you but I respect the decision. Good luck! :D

It's been great luck so far!

Nice song, sounded like a good redo/tribute of Beauty School Dropout. Good luck in yer travels dude.

It's a long, tedious journey...

You sir, are a wicked genius! =^..^=

Will you tell my mom? She's convinced I'm just being a smart-ass.

Awesome!!! I was hoping you made a studio version of this!

Thanks for grabbing video!

I'm fairly happy I watched your YouTube journal before seeing this in The Bear's favorites.
Leaving me to post such things as "But you just got your new fursuit!". ^__^

The song had my sides aching with laughter. SO many inside-jokes! I haven't heard a decent song about the fandom since Kurrel the Raven's Furry Song, yours being far superior, especially the humor (Furry Song http://youtu.be/QxFvV5PXK7A ). The funny thing is that the whole "I'm leaving the fandom" bit applies to more than just furries, making this quite a pop culture commentary from a hilarious point of view.
Well done. I'm sure my brother Mark will get quite a kick out of this one. ^__^

I think Mark looks at all of this and thinks "Man, this makes me feel normal."

He relates more than he lets on. ^__^
I don't see him attending a convention any time soon, but he's a geek too.

I especially loved the Nerf gun story sneaking in there. ^__^

Yeah, I'm glad I finally found a use for it

Make it sound like Queen ^__^

nuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu! but nice song

What's a highvultcast?

a production team

I'll bake you some cookies.. if you stay in the fandom :)

What flavor?

what flavor do you like :)

Sweet!

...This song was absolutely delightful .

See ya around!

I'm baaaaaack. Did you miss me?

Totally <3. I watched the new account before I even commented here xD.

best song EVER!!!!!! well it's up there at least :D

I don't know if I'll ever match the manic energy of Cheesycore Disco.

I love the audience's reaction to the Fandom song, and the alternate lyrics to "Never invited" are hilarious. ^__^

Strangely, pointing out that I wasn't invited didn't actually get me invited! What's up with that?

Ha! Ironic... or redundant? ^__^
Sometimes you gotta ask around too. Your funny and likable, so if you bring up every so often, you'll find an invite... especially if you offer to bring something to the party (i.e."Do you know of anyone having a good room party? I have this 10lb wheel of cheese I've been looking to share"). ^___^

<3

It's why we do what we do!

Uh... what do we do, again?

That thing.... with the thing... for them, and ... you know what I'm talking about, right? :D

This is awesome! :D

Your name reminds me of Parry Gripp's "Body Spray" video. WHICH I LOVE!!!!

this is a great response to the song, Fantastic. Now plug Wild Night some more and get your fans to show up also.

I'm leaving the fandom
I can't put up with that much pain
If I show up at Wild Nights
I could get stranded in the rain!
And the marksmanship track has already been canceled
so Mark* can't shoot his gun
I'm leaving the fandom
it's just no fun!


( holliehyena's hubby, who is still bummed out)

He read the lyrics & LOLed!!!! Poor guy....

At Oklacon AND MFF I WILL have my camera ready!!!!

LOL. An interesting version of the song.

We have got to teach you to "reply to this post"...

what do you mean??

There you go

Happy Dad?

YOU ARE NAUGHTY

D: goodbye rhubarb, no longer will my ipod receive new musics from you, it is sad and so am i

Yes, it's truly a sad occasion, and it's not over. I'll also be leaving the fandom at Oklacon and MFF this year, most likely Megaplex next summer... so much to prepare!

Quitter

If there was, 'Furry: The Musical', this would be in it. I could honestly imagine something like that

There actually is a musical called FurReality, formerly known as Yiff! The Musical; I came across it when doing research for JBMD and made sure I went in a different direction overall.

This song is keeping me from adding songs to my iPod, you know. If I sync it, then "I'm Leaving the Fandom" will get bumped out of my Recently Added playlist. <sigh> Just wanted you to know the sacrifices I make for you, bear.

I am not worthy!

I wasn't really sure if this was an actual leaving message, but then I couldn't help noticing the lack of a "newer" button below and went straight to your profile page to read the latest journal & whatever other messages there were. I see...

Yes, I just now got to this submission. I'm WAYYYYY behind on my submissions list. This increased my concern of not seeing a "newer" link, it being over a month later.

ur leaving the fandom >.>
see u tomorrow <.<

Ha! That's awesome!

Hi Rhubard!

I'm Spanish. Can you type the lyric of this song? Please :3

Max just played this on his stream! Thanks for the laugh, I needed it.

Oh come on, Rhubarb! You KNOW that's not true! It's impossible to really leave the fandom, and you know it!
This is where you belong, and we'll always wecome you
