@Josh - Did someone seriously say "bro" to you, here?
"Bro" is my leaat favorite non-swear word, displacing even "moist".
If anyone were to combine "reach out" and "bro" my eyeballs would pop out of my head & years of pent up angst would shatter the brick walls of my home. NOT kidding.

Avatar Swag For Life Member Wed. 4/9/14 10:44pm Holly in NC:

@mariano - I do not understand Bronies, but they do not disgust me. I actually babysit a 6th grade Brony, and his interest in MLP is really, really...intense. And he is an exceptionally handsome, polite, non-geeky young man, with tons of girls in his class totally crushed out on him.

Did y'all know that Mick Collins is a Furry? Again, to each their own.

@IXKey - :-)
@Alex - I'd never heard "bro" til a few years ago, and then it was always used by sterotypical awful drunk frat boys & wannabes, and now it's everywhere!

@earrie - If you were inquiring re Mick C's Furry status, he's quite open about it in interviews & on Twitter.

Me, I could never be a Furry for many reasons, most importantly (aside from lack of desire) because I don't deal well with temperatures over 65F. I'd die in one of those costumes! ;-)

WikiFur looks safe-for-work, what's the big deal? I did not know there was a "Motor City Fur Con" in Michigan this weekend. Hmm...

Thank you for that link, Holly -- I'll pass it along.

...hotel rooms all booked up for Motor City Fur Con 2014. I've heard that's QUITE the partying crowd

Well crap -- another Arizona homer -- it's 7-2 now. Good thing YOU benched Timmy, Evan.

@P-90 - I bet Mick will be there if he's not on tour!

@Holly: stop! Trying to piece together my shattered illusions!
Avatar Wed. 4/9/14 11:30pm Alex of Chicago:

The furry references in MC's songs go way back. Far as I know, he's more into the comic book scene. Not the type showing up at conventions.
  Wed. 4/9/14 11:32pm P-90:

@Holly: I'm with you, I can't get past the idea of how hot and sweaty those costumes must be. Mick C. must not mind, to each his own...

The FMU-fan furry I know has been cool at the FMU events I've met them at.
Avatar Swag For Life Member Wed. 4/9/14 11:37pm Holly in NC:

BTW, Mick C's twitter is highly entertaining - great mix of musings on music, sci-fi, Detroit, politics in general, whimsy, fun facts - @mariano, I think you'd like :-)
Gories one of my fave bands ever, and the Dirtbombs certainly have great moments.

How 'bout a little Adam WarRock track?

"Horndog Fest is essentially a comic for people who are into touching animals...yes, I am into furries. And I do go to the conventions."

Corrected. In any case, let's talk about something else next time.

Thierry, saw your request earlier - don't have anything handy, unfortunately, and need to get caught up on his recent releases but I'll get some on during an upcoming show!

@bobdoesthings - BEST imgur ever!!!!!!!!!!!! That's fantastic, bravo.
What's your buddy's name?

@efd - wow. Am I the only person who just now realized the intro to this Dead Moon song relys heavily on Let's Active's "Every Word Means No"?
How is Fred doing post-surgery, anyone know?

bonus Let's Active with puppy, just because:

@earrie Can you pass The Turing Test?
Avatar Swag For Life Member Wed. 4/9/14 11:53pm efd:

didn't pick up the Let's Active thing this time around but will listen out for it next time. I saw a Facebook update a few days ago that said Fred came through the surgery fine so hopefully he'll have a smooth recovery.

@bobdoesthings love that pic!!

@efd That's what I saw. The last news was good.

thanks! although.. worst part about cats. "oh you're doing something.. let me fucking fuck that up.. I'll just sit here and mash your keyboard.. cool huh?"
Avatar Swag For Life Member Wed. 4/9/14 11:57pm Holly in NC:

Lucas. Good name. Reminds me of Suzanne Vega (I know, Luka) & Winona Ryder's only good movie other than Heathers & Mermaids . IMHO.

@Alex. Me as a robot or in detecting robots? Detecting lightning speed packet sniffing robots?
Avatar Wed. 4/9/14 11:57pm mariano:

This Carsick song's guitar riff reminds me of a Stereolab song, can't remember which.
Avatar Wed. 4/9/14 11:58pm earrie:

Robots are inhumane. That's usually a tell.

@bobdoesthings - It does not get better. it gets much, much worse. Currently sitting on 1 sq foot patch of king size bed, 1 wee cat somehow has all contiguous space ;-)
