Why are you a brony now? Isn't being a furry insulting enough?

This, was a conscious decision. Since I'm female at present and I still like men. It would be weird otherwise...right?The Mighty Thorgi wrote:Because he recently came out as a female jedithrope.Sev wrote:Why did you change your orientation to straight?

>_> ultimate relaxation technique, cuddles with Apple, writing poetry (since there's been a serious lack of that, that gives an indication.) What makes me smile? See: What makes me cry, vol 2 of 5 page 257 under the heading, What makes me so hopeful I start crying. There are several subsections in respect to "good feels" as well.Asbjorn-phoenix wrote:What makes a Folf smile? Can I scratch your head? What is a Folf ultimate relaxation technique?
Headscritches must be vetted by the dominion police in Folfstad near the province border of Wolverton and Vulpesvakia if there are any enquiries as to how one can scritch a folf's head please consult the Folf manual that will be handed to you free of charge while you stand in a line of fluffs...not because Folf headscritches are in any way popular. Someone had started a line there a few years ago and now furs just queue there for no reason.
Which is why the manual is given to you in the first place...to save you from boredom. It's rather comprehensive.
Pay attention to page 452 where it details the intricate reactions of what happens if you surprise a folf with headscritches. Won't spoil it. (folf startles happen...there's an illustration...it's comical.)

Re: Ask Ivic!
Well it's published by the best furry academic journal creators working in tandem that of Bearson and Skew-mask, Ferret (pronounced Ferray) and of course Penguin. The Author is as of yet unknown as an academic, since a lot of the scientific exploration of folf's is a fairly small but intensive and very hands on...sometimes hands have been lost...but there is no question as to the validity of their journals.
Pricing for the varied content can sometimes be incredibly expensive depending on the kind of research that has been done. the introductory guides, like the Folf Manual, which is free of charge, is an example. It is comprehensive in all facets however does tend to gloss over certain topics that need more explanation much like the 5 volume set on "What makes Me Cry: A Folf's guide to emotional stability" which practically requires you to sell your kidneys on the black market...like both of them. You didn't need them anyway...barring that, matching kidneys from an unsuspecting victim. You can find more at our website: http://www.folfsareawesome.ac.za yes...we are a standing online university too... you will have to excuse the fact that our website is currently down.

Re: Ask Ivic!
Well, that does depend, Folfstad has quite a few hotels all at pretty high standard and fairly inexpensive, issue being, you may have to listen to the folfs' very unique howl in the evenings since they tend to do it quite often...which is probably why it's so cheap...RavenSong wrote:I has a question...

Re: Ask Ivic!
It comes after a rigorous and grueling 35 week process that is explained in the "Folfinomnomicon - Volume 25" of 32. (Yeah...many volumes but only around 150-200 pages each, part of one of those, pawreodicals that Folfstad found novel, LOLOLOLOL BOOKJOKESFORDAYS) however they are either fiercely protected by those who may have gotten the entire set (I am one of only 6 that I know of) or they don't come cheap and volume 25 was actually pulled, very shortly after distribution and many other copies that have been in libraries and bookstores have been burnt or buried.Tocs wrote:And how does one fully embrace the folfness?
This is due to the very secretive nature of the folfs. There are notes in the book that would be difficult for folfs to explain because...wait...you wanted to be able to fully hug the folfness?
Please refer to the Folf manual, page 243 with express attention to the section titled, "Folfs don't get embraced, they embrace you."

Re: Ask Ivic!
Kids... what did we learn today:
Folfs are secretive but sometimes they start telling you their secrets with enough rose wine...
Folfs are funny and lol at their own book jokes.
Folfs will find you, and they will snap your spinal column...

Re: Ask Ivic!
If the idea of consciousness is to be believed in respect to Descartes then "I think therefore I am." If Monty Python is to be believed "I drink therefore I am." Which calls into question the idea of whether we imbibe to exist or to run away from the perspectives that have been placed before us in an attempt to save our sanity. If this is to be believed then our sanity and our insanity in over-imbibing is a reason to consider conscious decisions. However if Freud is to be believed...wait...this is a fairly sfw conversation...I'd keep that one to myself. Even Maslow has a very structuralist approach. So the very base idea still remains open and Descartes does seem to keep his answer pretty damn vague and I like the grey so... if my existence is connected to my conscious thought and I consider that all conscious thought is in effort to make decisions...because even an unconscious or subconscious (depending on which psychologist you read most of) thought must become a part of your conscious to be exactly that...I'd simply say that, consciousness is a the very idea of having knowledge of your existence and understanding the consequences of specific actions.Brutallis wrote:*cracks knuckles* Ok, let us start with an easy one. What is consciousness in your opinion?
If you find any help in this...maybe I'll bring you into one of my classes to explain in laymen's terms as to how I teach my students on a daily basis. A translator if you will.

Re: Ask Ivic!
As is ritual, noting the amount of years that are left within our body has become quite the past time, think of it as a race, where we all run terribly quickly within the first 21 years and slowly peak to around 32 (if we can) and then slowly begin to pace ourselves. Some of us continue running quickly and sometimes die out a little faster than everyone, in essence its to see who can live to be the loneliest person by the age of 121 when the cameras start following us. We're all Forest Gump in that sense.
Every annual 'celebration' is merely a 'whew we got this far already?' And there's really no end goal. Keep going, keep achieving and eventually you'll know when your time comes, be it in the final frantic seconds that you attempt to jump out of your car to the threat of a truck, or few seconds you may have surrounded by your loved ones. We all have a story and until that point and every Birthday before it, it's just to show that you've achieved another 365 days in your little story.
