"Poverty" truly is a subjective term. If someone were to admit this out-loud, their words could easily be twisted (politically, of course) to showcase that a family of four struggling to get by would not call their 'poverty' status as simply being subjective but a visible FACT.

If such a person were to twist those words around and even go as far as to find such family to use in their example, it would still prove that poverty is subjective because compared to the poor in other nations, the "American" poor family may actually not be as poor as they thought they could be.

Poverty truly is a subjective term.

An update to nothingkat.livejournal.com/157534.html

 Thanks to the hard work of our fellow humans, Holiday Inn has completely cancelled on FoxMas 2009.  Instead, it  will be held at a private location which is rumored to be either a floating landfill, Hell, or a fart.

Apparently the staff at FoxMas tried to hide their dirty underwear by telling the hotel staff that their "adults-only furry con" would just be a MASCOT mini-conventions -- and provided examples such as "The GEICO gecko" and the "Pillsbury Doughboy".

However fear not, lonely holiday fags! FoxMas 2010 is already in the works (meaning that they only have a title for FoxMas 2010 so far -- which will be "FoxMas 2010")

New things to look forward to at FoxMas 2010:
-All-Night Assfucking
-All-Day Assfucking
-Assfucking
-Unfounded claims of said con being put together by the "World's Largest Furry Party".
-Making Uncle Kage look like a true respectable furry con operator when you really think about it.

So in my mailbox, I have my voter's guide for November NYC Mayor election amongst other position. In this newspaper-thing, apparently there are more candidates than normally known (as usual) and a few of them just strike me as ODD.

I present to you MISS ANTI-BILLIONAIRE AND MR. RENT IT TOO DAMN HIGH

Now that I have your attention.

Firstly, fuck LJ-cutting. I'm not emo.

Secondly -- Are you lonely? Really desperate for random attention? Are your standards so low that you will fuck just about anyone? If so, call me.
 
If so, we have the perfect furry con for you.

The Frozen Oasis Christmas Party/Con/Slutfest is an extension to the original Anthrocon-based room party. Yes. Hotel room party. The thing that normally 15-years old do with one 18-year old who is old enough to rent a room at a Holiday Inn before being kicked out for allowing underage drinking.  Well basically, Frozen Oasis was one of many rooms that , due to fursuits and faggot-shit, got overcrowded, really hot and uncomfortable, and annoying after about a few minutes.  I recommend going in, getting a free drink, and immediately going to a cooler place -- like a middle school dance.

Do you hate minors at your furry cons ruining your chance to fuck your plushie out in the open? Well fear not!  See - FOXmas (Short for Frozen Oasis Xmas, get it?) is 100% minor free! So that means that you can fuck out in the open!!!!

Well no, there is still the law. However, if you want to see what isolating yourself to a furry-lifestyle mentality is all about ----

According to their FAQ:

Will there be media and mundies at FOXmas?

No. We have an agreement that no media will be allowed on hotel property. If you see media in the convention, please notify convention security, because they are trespassing on private property, and any tape that they record at FOXmas is our property, so you do not have to worry about your family seeing you on the evening news.

Mundanes ("Mundies" as I like to call them) are barred from convention spaces. If you see a Mundie in convention space, please notify convention secuity.

FOXmas is to be restricted access to all non-furs, except in the case of emergency. The hotel is kind enough to promise that limited, trusted staff only will be allowed into convention spaces.

I underlined the bullshit section. First, if you know ANYTHING about copyright and property laws (which I don't but I know someone who does) no one owns a video simply because they are on it. Especially for the media/news.  You can ask not to be filmed but otherwise how do you think most news organization do undercover camera work and get away with it. They can blur your voice and mask your voice but don't fall for that crap. YOU CAN BE ON THE EVENING NEWS. 

Second -- the idea of barring mundanes is fucking ridiculous.  Besides assuming stereotypes on furries, how the fuck does one differentiate a furry from a mundane? Most furries don't have fursuits, don't look retarded, don't smell like shit, and are rather awesome. Well, some are awesome.  So are they gonna have a furry entrance test or something to determine your furry factor? Are they going to actually tell a new furry that they are not "furry" enough?

And finally , there is this in the FAQ. I have no idea how much of this is TONGUE IN CHEEK but my guess is none of it.

Why should I attend FOXmas?

Simply put, we intend to make FOXmas the single most important thing to happen to furry since hotel pizza delivery. Saturday December 12 will set a new standard for furry nightlife that no other conventions will likely match. We will be attempting a number of new concepts, and borrowing some of the best features from other conventions. If you're curious as to what the events that we have planned, check out the EVENTS page. The greatest feather in our cap, however, will be the FOXmas Party itself (Saturday), will be so revolutionary as to change the fandom forever.
 
See, the key is to use "terms". I just used one as an "example".  "Furry Nightlife" doesn't exist so it's fair to then claim that your con will set a new standard for them. Also, the hype (or feather-in-our-cap as they call it) is also one of any furry cons biggest flop -- that being the dance. I know they use the word 'party' but what's a party without a dance, right?  Hell, even fancy parties have classical musical.  However, apparently the FOXmas Party on Saturday is going to be so revolutionary that is will "change the fandom forever".  I'm assuming that the revolutionary change they are talking about has something to do with the soon-to-be booming percentage of furries catching AIDS at a slutty adult-themed furry con.

In other news, a horrorcore rapper (what?) killed a family of four.


Horrorcore Rapper Murder and FOXmas 2009. What do these two events have in common?
A) Fallen morality
B) Cry for attention
C) Parents should have caught on to this fault and helped their kid before making a big mistake.
D) All of the above

You better study this question hard. This is one out of forty-five questions from the "Furry Entrance Quiz" that will be required upon entry to filter out any "mundies".

Why does my brain keep telling me "Hey, that song by Miley Cyrus..."Party In The U.S.A."...yeah, you like that song. Keep hiding that fact. Don't tell a soul. It's embarrassing."?


Oh fuck.

"80% of this mortgage problem is caused by the banks. It's fraud committed by the banks ... not the people who were there to get something they couldn't afford."

– Michael Moore after Minneapolis screening of 'Capitalism: A Love Story' 

And to not misquote, the term "people who were there to get something they couldn't afford" was not said in any sarcastic or ironic context nor was it transcribed within quotations. However, in the video he does specifically mention black people.

So busted nose fatty faggot Dragoneer decides that he is going to determine when someone is deem worthy of being in the furry fandom or when someone is not worthy of it. You see, it's not Dragoneer who is making furry look bad with his constant naked pictures of dog dicks and anuses, drawn in a professional style to show that he's not just a "fan" but one who makes a living off it -- nooo...

In comes ChewFox. A ditzy 20-year old who just wanted to express her sexuality out in the open. Something MOST furries do anyways but apparently like to pretend that when the real cameras are around, they suddenly are misunderstood celebrities.

So ChewFox goes on the Tyra Banks show. She talks openly about how she has sex in fursuits. Weird , whatever.

However if head over to http://www.furaffinity.net/user/chewfox/ you might notice this on the header:

ADMIN NOTICE
This account has been closed due to the following reason:

User has brought shame to the entire fandom for their own personal self gain

(Edit: They have since removed this header but not the ban.)

I could go on about this but -- seriously? I understand he owns the website and all but where was his head when he allowed this to go on? There are plenty of people who deserve to get banned from FA, alot of them who I believe do more harm to the fandom than a couple who are not embarrassed to admit that they are furries all the way -- down to the socks. But to ban them from your website and say they "shamed the entire fandom"? This coming from Dragoneer?

Fucking inflation and herm sex, dog dicks, and digimon porn drawing Dragoneer?

I proclaim that Furaffinity brings shame to the entire fandom for their own personal self gain(er).

For those who want to see the Tyra Banks video ---> http://vimeo.com/6619090

And to those who think this is a nameless ban --- Seriously. Fuck you.

No.

Public.

Option. 

Man, it appears that even with having the majority the Democrats can't do anything they promised.

Are we still in Iraq? And Afghanistan?

Yes?

Wow. 

 I liked Obama's speech. That said, I do believe that he genuinely has only good intentions about this health care ordeal. He almost surprised me when talking about the limited number of insurance companies found in various states - something I always noticed. I was hoping he was going to allow and mandate the purchase of out-of-state health insurance to stir up competition in the marketplace. Instead, he pushed his profit-free option. It may be managed by private companies but micro-managed by the government, I'm sure. I give Obama some credit for understanding and recognizing that competition and private company will be key to reform - not a tax-subsidied government program.

Also, I'm surprised people are getting on Joe Wilson for shouting "YOU LIE" at Obama.  If only they have seen what congress what like back in the late 1700's or early 1800's when the founders who died for this country were shouting and screaming back and forth in congress. It's not suppose to be all applause and smiles. It's good to see people alive and passionate in that otherwise dead place.

I went ahead and deleted those people from my friends list who I either

a) never talk to

b) don't know

 

c) don't like

d) you
 

If you can read this then you are one of the few who I consider very sexy. In fact, I'm only leaving people who I want to have rough sex with so -- if you read this don't be shy. Seriously, I deleted alot of people and somehow you didn't make the cut right? So feel special and spread those cheeks.

Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm. Fresh. 

Just keeping it short.  

House Resolution 1256. Also known as the Family Smoking Prevention and Tobacco Control Act. It bans ALL kinds of flavored cigarettes. ALL OF THEM.

Except MENTHOL.

Who are the two groups who pushed this exclusion? 

Phillip Morris. And the Congressional Black Caucus.

I wish I was making this up.

What song was #1 when you were born? According to the Billboards charts, while God was giving me his powers upon being born, everyone was dancing to...
Reply with only a youtube link to the music video of the song. I'm sure if it was #1 at one point, it has a video!

I've decided to post one more little bit of political blah-blahs for the sake of people who probably enjoy reading this. Recently, the Health Care Reform that is being pushed through Washington is bringing out the silent right-wingers into full force and boy are they mad. There are a million video clips of them screaming and yelling at town hall meetings -- and I fully hope they keep doing this. Not because I hate to see people halt an honest debate but because I believe this argument is debate-less. And no, I'm not paid by some health care company. Hell, I personally don't even have health care. Yet.

In the year 2025, a new battle will come to America. By then, I will be 45 years old. However now, at the age of 29, I will predict what I believe to be the FUTURE of legal fights for equality. That fight will be....the future for women to do this:

Hmm. I do have a few choices coming up again. I can either...possibly......go to MFF in Chicago OR go all the way to FC in San Jose. I've never been to either and I'm sure most would pick MFF...

...then again I could just go to neither. Which do you think is awesome?  HOLLA BACK, GIIIIIIIRL.
