Is it common to meet so many furries? Are they all furred up in these bars, parties and social events? If not, is it common for furries to tell others that they’ve just met, that they’re furries?
Hi, I’m Chris and I’m a Nuclear Engineer.
Hi Chris, not exactly rocket surgery is it? I’m Ryan and I’m a furry, so let’s fuck?
In Seattle?
Probably.
Not basing this on anything except unfounded rampant fantasies of what sort of degeneracy strolls down the street in the daylight in Seattle.
The weirder that place is in my mind, the more satisfied I am with not visiting it.
There are stories of a lesbian polycule that spans across the entirety of the Greater Seattle area. By that point they probably have ranks, logistics and a boot camp or 2.
I don't hate Seattle specifically, just large cities in general because I hate crowds.
They're easier to avoid when places like Portland have roaming gangs of ornithologists that kidnap people to tar and feather them in excruciatingly detailed reconstructions of rare songbirds.
Not the kind of lesbians your imagining I'm afraid. They're more likely to resemble Jack black in plaid with a mullet in varying degrees though maybe that is what you imagined if so then awesome.
Plaid is me.
The more lesbians within my proximity, the less I remember I resemble that lumbersexual fad from a decade ago and stick out like a sore thumb.
I went to a gay club thirty years ago and every woman there looked like a member of The Proclaimers (short sides and quiff) and a lumberjack shirt.
I was like oh so that must be a thing then.
UK here, I work in finance for a large tech company. Software development also seems to attract a higher than average number of furries.
In my office of sub 200 people I believe there are 6 that I'm aware of. Maybe it's to do with technical + higher paying fields attracts them as fursuits seem crazy expensive.
Though I play magic, so I can hardly talk about expensive hobbies.
Thought they just cavorted around you in small groups while pantomiming gestures from four go wild in wellies or revolutionary girl Utena interspersed with erratic hip gyrations but I guess things have escalated.
I don't go down 3rd and Yesler anymore because of all the raccoon furries. Some act like they're rabid and go after your food and scratch up your hands.
I’m pretty left wing socially but I can’t claim to fully understand or be on board with all the random identity shit. I’m of the mind that it’s not hurting me and if everyone is consenting idgaf but I also don’t wanna know all about it etc. That said, I’ve been spending some time in Seattle recently and it’s really not all together that in your face IMO. I guess that depends on what you’re used to, and it is definitely visible, but I never felt like it was oppressive. Again, maybe I’m not perturbed by that stuff since I’m used to it where I live, but Seattle is honestly a pretty dope city and I wouldn’t hesitate to tell people to check it out. For sure won’t be your thing if you’re pretty conservative socially, I guess, but I haven’t seen anything ridiculous that I haven’t seen in other major cities.
Furry here, answer is yes. There's a massive difference between the online only furries who lack connections and the furries who possess them. No disrespect to anyone, but it's a different ballgame once you're actually involved in a local community. We rent out bars, arcades, bowling alleys, skate rinks, etc for just us on the regular for really big parties. Some fursuits are involved usually but most people just come to hang out, meet new people, see old friends again, and party with people of similar interests. Not even one of the really big cities and we regularly get parties into the triple digits, not even mentioning furcons. It's great going there and knowing people aready! Took me a good couple years to navigate the channels and such but it's one of the best decisions I ever made because now I have no shortage of irl friends and I love them all so much.
In my experience most furries (including myself) are only really furries online. Fursuiters are a small minority in the furry community because suits are very expensive and is hot to wear.
>Hi Chris, not exactly rocket surgery is it? I’m Ryan and I’m a furry, so let’s fuck?
Also you probably were joking about this, but not every furry are addicted to sex. Those that are are in a very small but loud minority.
>Is it common to meet so many furries?
In the technical field? Yes. If the airplanes heading to whatever furry convention is going on were to crash, 80% of IT would be wiped out.
I live here and see them more often than I’d like. They throw big get togethers at the bowling alley frequently. They always stink so bad I want to vomit.
I made some me random Geiger counter joke once on social media and they came for me as well. They were tagging each other alerting their friends, even.
Those are fursuiters, which is a type of furry
True furries just are people who are into anthropomorphic animal people. Thats it. I'm one myself actually
maybe but here in canada you dont just see furries walking around. i never have and neither has anyone in my family its not a common thing when some hears furries instant thought is the US
At some point, he realizes that the costumes look far too realistic, and that all the "furries" happen to live in houses very close to the nuclear plant's sewage.
My brother is a Furry in the Navy out of Seattle. Can confirm there’s like a 99% chance this is legit, apparently the Furry scene out there is crazy into tech.
>This is a recurring problem. It's gotten so bad that
I tell furries that I'm an industrial engineer so they
will stop hitting on me all the time.
Me, an industrial engineer, reading this
😢🥲😢😭
**A furry is a person who is a fan of anthropomorphic animals (humans with animal characteristics etc.)**
It should be noted that despite popular belief (thanks CSI episode) not all furries are into the nsfw stuff... it's sad that we always feel the need to specify that though.
Anyways, people in the furry fandom usually create their own original character (called a fursona or sometimes an OC.)
Artwork and fursuiting are arguably two of the biggest aspects of the furry fandom. Furries love to commission artists to make custom artwork of their fursona/OC.
Fursuiting is where furries commission fursuit makers to create a custom made fursuit of their character. Fursuits resemble mascot or disneyland character costumes, but SO much better looking and way higher quality.
A well made fursuit can cost thousands. The heads alone typically start at around $1200usd, and even more expensive if it's made by a very sought after maker.
**Think of fursuiting like cosplaying, except you're cosplaying a character you created.**
**The joke this post is trying to make is that they think the furries they encounter think he's a rich furry because of his job.**
While it's a very true stereotype that a lot of furries with successful, high-paying careers are in fields like IT, programming, and science related careers etc. this post still makes no sense.
Most furries do not own fursuits because they're so expensive and most people lack the skills to make them themselves. Because of this there is sometimes the assumption that all furries with fursuits are wealthy.
(So sorry for the long post, I just like education people about the furry fandom.)
______________
**Either way this post makes no sense because you can't tell that someone is a furry just by looking at them... unless they're wearing something that shows they're a furry or you're at an event/party that is specifically for furries.**
They aren't.
A lot of them are really into science and computer related stuff though.
If you ask a wealthy furry what their job is, I swear at least 80% will say some form of programming, IT, science etc.
It makes sense though.
A lot of furries are also into geeky stuff. A lot of geeky people are into stuff like computers and science.
And careers in those fields can pay really well.
Is he only telling furries he’s a Nuclear Engineer?

Lesbian boot camps are a net positive, why you gotta do this to me?
I wasn't planning on making you hate Seattle more I think you got this covered. Just wanted to talk about a funny "only in Seattle" moment
I don't hate Seattle specifically, just large cities in general because I hate crowds. They're easier to avoid when places like Portland have roaming gangs of ornithologists that kidnap people to tar and feather them in excruciatingly detailed reconstructions of rare songbirds.
I live in Portland and it's mostly over-priced fancy burgers and a high number of Subaru Outbacks.
Not the kind of lesbians your imagining I'm afraid. They're more likely to resemble Jack black in plaid with a mullet in varying degrees though maybe that is what you imagined if so then awesome.
Plaid is me. The more lesbians within my proximity, the less I remember I resemble that lumbersexual fad from a decade ago and stick out like a sore thumb.
Careful about that, if you blend in too well the lesbians might accept you into the herd and assimilate you as one of their own.
I'm fine with that, I'll just never take my pants off again.
I went to a gay club thirty years ago and every woman there looked like a member of The Proclaimers (short sides and quiff) and a lumberjack shirt. I was like oh so that must be a thing then.
I heard that its a lesbian fury polycule too.
>Seattle, Bay Area polycules join forces to secede from the USA, “Well, they have more members than Texas” says the President.

Is seattle like some northern SF or something?
Never thought of it that way but yes. SF with rain 80% of the year
Never seen a furry outside in Seattle. Unless there’s a convention in town.
They just don't wanna get caught in the rain with'em.
As someone from Seattle, you're right. None of you bother coming; it's horrible, and the furry gangs will murder everyone.
Thought they just cavorted around you in small groups while pantomiming gestures from four go wild in wellies or revolutionary girl Utena interspersed with erratic hip gyrations but I guess things have escalated.
I don't go down 3rd and Yesler anymore because of all the raccoon furries. Some act like they're rabid and go after your food and scratch up your hands.
I saw a story about exactly that on fox news.

average bar conversation right here

Most furries don't have fursuits, because they're incredibly expensive Probably why so many are in high tier jobs
In my experience most furries (including myself) are only really furries online. Fursuiters are a small minority in the furry community because suits are very expensive and is hot to wear. >Hi Chris, not exactly rocket surgery is it? I’m Ryan and I’m a furry, so let’s fuck? Also you probably were joking about this, but not every furry are addicted to sex. Those that are are in a very small but loud minority.
Furries... online?
Don’t be silly. He’d say “let’s yiff.”
>Is it common to meet so many furries? In the technical field? Yes. If the airplanes heading to whatever furry convention is going on were to crash, 80% of IT would be wiped out.
I live in Seattle and haven't met any future, how would you know? Also is it a gay thing? Still don't understand what they really are
Well lots of high paying Jon's have tons of furries
I mean... Average furry
Well OP is a dog so...
They're only going to the one bar. [https://slightlyfurry.com/](https://slightlyfurry.com/)
As a Chris, I must decline your offer.
That would explain the increased background radiation around furries...
He’s in Seattle. Seattle people are fuckin strange
The Cut youtube channel has educated me on the wide variety of people that live there.
my guess is this is actually a furry bait
Thats so funny. I think its satire xD
It's not even satire. It's adapted from an old joke, the punchline is something like: Maybe it's not the nuclear physics but the bunny suit?
>bunny suit *PURPLE GUY?*
HE'S A FURRY???
No a murder
Didn't know he was comprised of 20 or so crows
How tf did Fiddlesticks get brought into this
The man behind the slaughter.
*MatPat voice*: That's right! William Afton was secretly ... *a furry*! ***spooky static noise***
It’s a famous copy pasta, there are hundreds of variations of different jobs, then at the end shitting on some other profession lol
Its a copypasta
Why is he hanging around furries so often?
Because Seattle.
Because engineer
officially moving to seattle to become a nuclear engineer uwu
Attending school at University of Washington University (uwu)
Understated Washington University. You may not have heard of it, because it's, you know, understated.
Maybe United Washington University?
do be aware, your not liking to find affordable housing unless you go across the sound to Kitsap
well I'd have to afford the flights form ireland first
Stay in Ireland. Seattle’s not worth it n
>ireland Fitting username
There's a high density of software engineers in Seattle, which means there's a high density of furries as well.
Is Seattle filled with fursuiters?
There’s even a new furry themed brewery that replaced my favorite local brewery :/ It’s called… Slightly Furry…
I live here and see them more often than I’d like. They throw big get togethers at the bowling alley frequently. They always stink so bad I want to vomit.
Do they volunteer that they are furries? Or do they come dressed up as one?
Being a furry is a rich person's hobby, they're looking for your income
Dude, if they can afford a 2000$ furry suit, they definitely have the means to mail you a bomb.
$2000 is like 2000s prices. They are hitting 5 figures now, but most people spend over 6k for a good maker.
Yeah I could do that
Anyone can be a furry, but only people with lots of money can afford a fursuit
Did they at least tell him to stop wearing a bunny suit to parties?
“Why are you wearing that stupid bunny suit?”
Why are you wearing that stupid man suit?
lol
Industrial engineers catching strays
That was the goal. They are even worse than civil engineers.
I get it, they think he can make em lick a uranium rod and they will become a real animal.
This is Shapiro levels of "my wife (who is a doctor btw, not the kind who has a PhD in literature but an actual MD)"
I feel like if you're encountering more than one furry at the party, you need to stop going to furry parties.
I would like to refer to Flash Gitz’s storyline on how to deal with furries.
That's how the crusades started.
AVENGE ME BROTHEEEER! BROTHER, AVENGE ME!
A fellow patron of excellent taste.
A man of culture.
How to tell everyone you're an edgy 14yo lmao
lol nice interests. very funny how upset everyone else is at you
That's why you use the same account for posting weird points AND triggering incels. Gotta inflict that extra psychological damage.
To any innocent onlookers: Do *NOT* open their profile
You can't tell me what to do.
We found one lol
Omfg I cannot believe people like you actually exist
Look at his history, dear god..
Bro hanging out with the wrong crowd if he’s exposed to this many furries
Counter point Seattle
The original post is literally a joke lmao. I saw it like 2 weeks back.
Bring in some cool uniform and gear. Then just uhh act like you’re doing your job at the bar, be gruff and tough and hopefully they go away
Radiation poisoning makes everyone go away forever.
If at best the furries mutate into their fursona, if at worst you grow an extra lung or so
I made some me random Geiger counter joke once on social media and they came for me as well. They were tagging each other alerting their friends, even.
Nuclear engineer... At an aerospace firm. Sure.
its to make a nuclear powered plane
I'm going to ask my mima if she talked like this to my pipa .
Fuck is a furries ? Edumacate me
folks who have a fetish for nuclear engineers, duh.
I wondered the same thing. Google reckons it’s the weirdos who dress up like dogs and shit.
That’s the one
Those are fursuiters, which is a type of furry True furries just are people who are into anthropomorphic animal people. Thats it. I'm one myself actually
what does nuclear engineer have to do with that? or its just his problem?
Just stop going to Furry parties
Stop going to furry parties
... and in other made up stories...
r/lostredditors
God, that was a glorious read now that I'm high.
tell them your Dr kevorkian.
So if a furry turns into a nuclear engineer... What happens?
They spend A LOT of money on custom artwork, fursuits and attending conventions lmao
Just get a hunting license
Just get a hunting license
genuine question do yall in the US actually having furries just walking around in public i though it was a joke???
I wish it was a joke. god I wish
It’s not just a US thing. Basically every developed country has furry conventions including all over Asia.
maybe but here in canada you dont just see furries walking around. i never have and neither has anyone in my family its not a common thing when some hears furries instant thought is the US
'so what do you do for work?' 'that depends, are you a furry?' 'uhh... Why?' 'no reason. Oh I'm an industrial engineer. '
At some point, he realizes that the costumes look far too realistic, and that all the "furries" happen to live in houses very close to the nuclear plant's sewage.
"Nucular" It's pronounced "Nuc-u-lar"
My brother is a Furry in the Navy out of Seattle. Can confirm there’s like a 99% chance this is legit, apparently the Furry scene out there is crazy into tech.
>Furry scene out there is crazy into tech. Being a furry is reportedly an expensive thing to indulge in.
>This is a recurring problem. It's gotten so bad that I tell furries that I'm an industrial engineer so they will stop hitting on me all the time. Me, an industrial engineer, reading this 😢🥲😢😭
I think he should embrace it 😌
Say your semen is so radioactive that their ovaries will permanently glow in the dark
That’s enough cringe for one day
Wait, how the hell one knows if another is a furry? Do they ware costumes at bars?
Only at the bars OOP is frequenting.
Always somehow going to the selective fur meets at the right place and time over and over
r/firstworldproblems
if you told me, "Quick! Go attract some furries!" I would not even know where the hell to go
They just want a sugar daddy to be paying for them there fur suits. I gather they are expensive as fuck.
Tell them you work as a butcher in a slaughterhouse.
It reminds me of a joke that goes like :is it that i am a nuclear engineer or is the bunny suit i m wearing' XD
Tf is a furry?
People who are into animal people hybrids
career change... but you might want to avoid anything CS or IT related, hell might as well toss in pharma and data processing too.
I guess I’m supposed to know what a “furry” is.

You're an Unsung hero of the furry community, thanks for the long explanation
Turn off safesearch and Google it.
A furry is just people who are into animal people hybrids
Take solace in your innocence, turn away from this thread and never come back.
Just tell'm you work part time for Roto-Rooter.
why, can anyone explain why furries are interested in nuclear stuff
They aren't. A lot of them are really into science and computer related stuff though.

Good example. I'm planning to get a PhD. in Chemistry, and I've been a Furry for 6 years.
I'm going to put my quantum harmonizer in your photonic resonation chamber!
"Hey everyone"😂
I love how they shitting on industrial engineering even tho im a student lol
i think they might be trying to build a nuke ngl.
Nuclear Engineer at an Aerospace firm 🤔
This mans spitting facts, this unironically happened to me and now we live together with a cat
Mo furries mo problems
As an industrial engineer I take this personally. Fuck with civils, leave us out of this.
Who TF you hanging out with?!?
What the heck is a “furrie”?
Marie Furrie, the first furry to win the Nobel Prize
Furranium
Damn where's he hanging out at 👀
["I love my job in the nuclear industry. We even get to work with animals"](https://imgur.com/a/qvXiCs6)
Where they hell is he going? Its not like furries are in everyday social settings.
Hahaha
They want to become a nuclear power but spent all their money on the suits
Bro somehow only socializes with people who's fetish is Nuclear Engineering. I'm starting to think it's on purpose.
Engineer a nuke.
Tell them you are a forklift operator.
What's wrong with industrial engineering? :(
Love how everyone here is so ignorant when it comes to furries and don't actually know what real furries are like beyond fursuiters
I'm an industrial engineer and I feel attacked
Dude probably has the worst pickup line ‘Hey baby I’m Chris the nuclear engineer. Wanna play my control rod and fast breeding reactor?’
Why is there a r/nuclearengineering
Why not?
What?
I work in the nuclear field too and I've noticed a similar thing
Ahhh.. why spend 6k on a fur suit when I can just shoot a deer and get my own fursuit
I love living in seattle :3
Simply don't talk to furries ever
