I have too little knowledge of persons within the fandumb to put forth any nominations, but how about this: Rather than just have six furries share a household, a reality tv show could be made out of it. The six furries would be locked up in a house for, say, three months, have free access to food, fursuits and furry porn, and everything that went on would be broadcast on tv... Once in a while the least "yiffy" of the them would be voted out and leave the house... Who'd be the winner???

(Could something as potentially disgusting as this even be shown on tv?)

You know, I'd stick up for Ashryn if she didn't hate me because I use a urinal.

Nekobe might need a ton of useless computer parts to tinker with.. and
Mark'd need some giant bluebottle flies as pets...=)

And throughout the season .. there would be no toiletpaper..=)

Here you are, gents...just browse around there and you'll see what hell is really like.

What would be your idea of what those six members of "The Furry World" be?

MY choices would be:

-- Brian O'Connell

-- Ashryn

-- Bondage Bob

-- Mark Merlino

-- Nekobe

-- Jim Groat

The recent mentioning about Nekobe made me think about furrydumb's most infamous wackjobs, and wondered what it would be like if some of them shared a household together.

Steve Martin, Doug Winger and Bob Guthrie.

Oh, wait...

Steve Martin, Doug Winger and Bob Guthrie.

Oh, wait...

You win the thread.

Also: BEST POTENTIAL SITCOM EVER. EVER.

Steve Martin, Doug Winger and Bob Guthrie.

Oh, wait...

You shoulda seen the place when there was a particular raving shitclown by the name of Paul Dale (aka "Captain Cartoon"), who's only claim to any real fame was when he did some work on "Captian Simian". Don't know if he ever got named in any credits because I never got the show in my area.

Oh, Hey Bob! =)

You really should get that "Paul Dale -the angry fanboy" answering machine tape into digital... for our enjoyment...
Haven't heard it for.. 5 years at least..

Never have I heard anyone being so mad over... well something trivial for sure... It'd be great to animate to that soundtrack! =)

Little did I know where it would all end 12 years later... in a flaming furry war!

Scratch that, add the time a whole squad of Japanese Kemono artists (Trump, some other Nippon furs/artists, and their translator,) swooped down on Steve's house after a con. It ended up with them slap-fighting each other (literally) over a little bottle of Tabasco sauce from one of my old US Navy survival kits (They wanted it for their pizzas we ordered that night,)...

Surreal.

Oh please. Tell us more about this. Provide pictures if you can. I just cannot fathom the idea of a bunch of kemono artists acting like the Three Stooges over an MRE Tabasco bottle.

Should I even ask.. but remenecing all the old stuff brought in mind ... whatever's happened to Robert Hill, if anything ?

You got it pegged more or less, Mike. During one of the last Confurences being held in Orange County, the whole Japanese Kemono group attending it decided to show up at Steve's house (Plus all their tag-a-longs, and their host/translator.) Come dinner time, they ask if we could order pizza in. Pizza came, and they ask if we had any hot sauce, specially Tobasco. We looked around, couldn't find any, then I remember the tiny Tobasco bottle that i had as a souvenir from my US Navy service time.

Gave it to them, walked to the kitchen, heard some obviously angry back-and-forth japanese coursing/shouting, and walked back in time to witness a few of the Japanese guys bitch-slapping each other Stooge style. That lasted about 10 seconds, followed by a pause, and an awkward silent moment. Never saw who finally got the bottle.

There has been two large bottles of Tobasco sauce in the spice cabinet ever since, just in case. Multimedia?, Mike, it was so fast and wacky, even if I had a digital camera back them, i would just be standing there, mouth open, just trying to comprehend WTF was going on, just like the rest of the people not involved were doing... :shock:

This is starting to sound more and more like Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas.

ConFurence is no more.

After ConFurence 2003, I can no longer afford to run the convention. I lost too much of my time, energy, money, and friendships along the way, and it's time to walk away from it.

A full explanation of my reasons is printed in the CF2003 Souvenir Program Book (See below, embedded Flash6 version). If you can't see flash o your computer, and want to read it, ask to borrow a copy from an attendee of ConFurence 2003, which was held in Burbank California on April 25-27, 2003.

Very soon now, I will post more information here regarding the future of The ConFurence Group which still exists as a business entity, dedicated to promoting anthropomorphic fandom related events. Until then, thank you for playing.

Do you realise that this shatters my previous image of Japanese furry artists as ubercool badass motherfuckers? True, your average doujinshi creator is (by definition) fucked in the head to the MAXX, but I always pictured them as monocled beatnik-types who were calm, collected and cool in social situations, saving up every last drop of insanity and sexual frustration they ever experienced in their entire lifetimes for the drawing table.

Make it all grainy and documentary-like like The Blair Witch Project.

On April 25, three filmmakers entered a convention in search of the legend of the Yiff Bitch. They were never heard from again. This film is all that remains. It has been titled The Yiff Bitch Project.

Hmm... in looking up the CF date for accuracy, I was not aware that 2003 was the last CF.

Holy shit! Darrel-Con is over and done, fork stuck in it and all?!

Now to count down until Kage-Con comes to a screeching halt.

Have any of these people noted the dearth of Trek conventions? With a dying core base, there's no really money. Furry is slowly croaking and shrinking around a rotten core. If Trek ain't making the money, furry sure isn't going to. They should just convert them over intro swingers' conventions but A) half the attendees you wouldn't want to fuck and B) the other half don't know how to fuck.

Well, Merlino did try to promote CF in a bunch of gay publications, thus the infamous ConFurence 8 came to be and is still spoken about to this day.

Oh yeah, I remember the flame festival that a.f.f became. I was still trying to play peacemaker and stand in the middle of the road back then. Of course, the infamous elevator incident is to this day denied by people who weren't there and claimed to have been mayo or something other than semen. I think Kline and Danielle could tell the difference.

To this day, I still think "The Semen Elevators" would be a great name for a punk/alternative band.

Never mind. Just end it all.

Merlino down, Exeline down, who's next? How long till we hear the end of Mephit, CACE, etc.? We should have a Furry-Con Dead Pool.

Wouldn't the registration fees and such be calculated to cover the costs of the convention center, food, etc., so that the attendes wind up footing the bill, rather than those that arrange it?

How silly of me. Everyone knows in the furry utopia that will someday be, everything is paid for in skritches and blowjobs.

I know jack and squat about arranging, running, and funding cons, but I don't see how someone organizes 10+ cons and winds up personally in debt.
