Going to be hosting a party later this week, and was wondering if anyone could think of any good drinking game rules for /THAT/ CSI episode? The only two good ones I've got so far are "This is going to be bad - finish your first drink before the intro is over" and "drink every time they say 'scritching'"... Any suggestions?

I watched it with some other people on this subreddit and I decided to write a review. Feel free to fact-check me if I got something about the fandom wrong.

Although I know I don't know everything about the furry fandom (especially when it comes to conventions and fursuits), I do consider myself a furry, and I can tell you for a fact that the CSI writers did not adequately research for episode "Fur and Loathing" (4x05). The writers seem to mash several negative stereotypes into this episode and don't really portray any of the positive aspects of the furry fandom (except possibly for the sexual liberation and discovery of one character). They believe that being a furry is a mostly sexual thing, and they portray the furries as promiscuous. Many of the furry activities seen on the show are sexual, from a fursuit strip club to yiff orgies.

Understandably, the characters in the show know nothing about furries. They are bewildered by the idea. One character, Grissom, is fascinated by them; another character, Catherine, thinks that they are complete weirdos. The characters also keep referring to fursuiters as "plushies."

The furry characters don't seem to act like actual furries would. Most people at the convention are wearing full fursuits (at least 80% I would say), and those who aren't are donned in ears and a snout. There are very few uncostumed furries at the convention. Although I know nothing about furry conventions, I would imagine that this is unrealistic. At this convention, there are private backrooms that are dedicated to furpiles and yiffing. These rooms are complete with porno music and rave lights. I imagine these don't exist either (outside of Second Life), and if they do it would probably be in a hotel room and not an actual room at the convention. The furries engage in an activity called scritching, which is basically grooming as animals would. Several furries have confirmed that this is not an actual thing. Several furries in the show refuse to take off their fursuit heads when being talked to/questioned by the police, with one furry saying something along the lines of "This suit is a part of me. You wouldn't ask a woman to take off her makeup! Why should I have to take off my mask?" One male furry is completely naked in his fursuit (maybe he had some underwear on; that area wasn't shown).

Of course, the show had some problems outside of the portrayal of furries. The two major problems I saw were that blood splatter instantly froze into pellets at 22 degrees Fahrenheit (unless they said negative 22 degrees and I missed it; even then it seems somewhat unrealistic) and that nobody checked the trunk of the car that was brought into evidence until later in the episode.

Overall, the episode is pretty unrealistic. This episode mostly portrays the furry fandom in a bad light, in both the actions of the furries and the dialogue of the main characters. I give this episode a D (because the D is pretty useful in yiffing).

Okay, okay, I write. I don't have a ref sheet (the closest thing to it that I have is my flair), and I desperately want one. Problem is I can't draw for beans. Anybody here willing to do a trade? One story for one ref sheet? All I need is a premise.

Bonus question, for great justice: If you transformed into your sona right now who would be the first to find out? (other than you)

(I'll write the story first, if that's what you'd prefer.)

Oh where to begin? I'm 17 and i'm a junior in high school. Joining the military after high school. grades are a below average and I think i'll get to the main thing that's killing me.

I hope I have a friend. We've known eachother since 7th grade and we play video games a lot. We played with some cool people we met online. (PS3). these people were cool, yeah they were a year older than us but hey, who cares?

Anyway, I was kicked out of the group earlier last year. My RL friend stayed with them, although he never talked about them. Recently, I was accepted back into their group. Oh no I don't know how to organize this.

Here, Person A is my friend. Person B is group member one, Person C is group member two, and Person C is someone I had a grudge against but nothing too bad.

Since the group knows I have a little grudge over Person C, if any conflict arises since I was welcomed back, they'd trust him. Now, We use an app to talk in a group chat kinda thing. Someone, who knew I was a furry and all made an account under the alias of a Person B and attacked me. Calling my character stupid and all this other hurtful stuff. They came to the conclusion that it was me that was attacking myself to get Person C kicked out even though I was fine with Person C now.

So remember how I said Person A is my friend and the others are online friends? Person A removed me off of his PSN friends list and only one of the online friends kept me. Now I don't know if I'm Person A's friend anymore and i'm kinda scared to ask. He's one of my only RL friends and we go to a cluba nd have a class period together at school.

So now i'm sitting here, at my computer, expecting negative comments cause i'm paranoid.

Just, getting pummeled everywear with schoolwork, and getting bullied at the same time, not to mention my stuff is getting stolen out of my gym locker because somebody knows my combination. Not to mention I'm alone, and borderline about to get kicked out of a high school where they boot you if your GPA drops below 3.0.

It's spiriling down quickly, to the point where I'm dressing black and listening to emo music :P

Hey guys, so I need some help with fleshing out my fursona. All I have is the species. I'm a Snow Leopard that hates the cold. That's all I got so far. How did you choose your fursona's name/unique identifications? I've been a Furry for a few years now, and I really want to finish/name my fursona :O. Thank you all for your help!

I saw this on Twitter... this shows some interesting stuff!

Where the Furries Are

You might live in a hotbed of people named AssassinWulf and Keenora Fluffball and not even know it.
Furries! Perhaps you've run into these animal enthusiasts, bumbling around in bulky costumes that are half-sports mascot, half-animatronic musician from Chuck E. Cheese's band. Or maybe you are a furry, in which case I say greetings, Zume Frostpaw, Jasper Nightlynx, AssassinWulf, or whatever your "fursona" name is!

Folks wanting to spend more time with furries—or less, due to an irrational fear of cartoon foxes entering the physical world—might be happy to know there's a tool for tracking them called the "Heat Map of Furries World-Wide." Made with geolocated data on nearly 7,500 furries, the bestial atlas uncovers dense clumps of rainbow hair and giant, anime-style eyes in the United States, Mexico, South America, England, and Germany ... oh so many furries in Germany. (Guten tag, Schattenwolf, PolarbaerInu, and Keenora Fluffball!).

But perhaps we should back up a minute and answer the question, "What's a furry"? Somebody who commented on the map explains it this way:

Furries, in a nutshell, are big fans of Anthropomorphic animal characters, usually to the point of having their own character (fursona) that they use as an avatar in the community. Furries are first and foremost a community, which is what draws most of them I suspect. It's a place where you can create an idealized or fantasy version of yourself to interact with others with. That snowballs into tons of art and interaction shared amongst the group. Conventions are huge (here in Pittsburgh we have a big one, maybe the largest in North America?) There is a big sexual element for many, but not all. Furry Porn (yiff) is common, and less-common is fursuit sex. (Fursuits, unsurprisingly, are costumes of furry characters).

How did the person who made the heat map, Reddit's direwoof—who has not responded to a request for comment—learn enough about this elusive tribe to map it? Does the government tag and track furries in the manner of whales and grizzlies? Anything is possible these days, but this map is actually based on user-submitted profiles on another "Furry Map" made by a Germany-based coder. That's caused some critics to complain it's presenting a skewed version of the world's true furry distribution.

And they do seem to have something of a case. "Yeah, one look at Japan told me how wrong this map is," notes one commenter, referencing the Land of the Rising Sun's rising furridom. Another skeptical commenter figured "there has to be at least 1" furry in a state as large as Texas. (If there is, it's gotta be Toughset the Armadillo, who "can roll up in a ball... but prefers not to, due to lack of coordination.")

But much of the map appears accurate if we can assume furries, like so many subcultures, clump up in urban areas. "I live in Orlando, FL. I can confirm there is a dense population of Furricus-Sapien," says one dude. Another person adds: "As someone who lives a ferry ride away from seattle I can unfortunately confirm."

Here are a couple closer views of earth's packed furry dens:
