nah, there's people like that.. I've seen it. But really, people acting like animals.. what the fuck. Cats, dogs... Lions, tigers and bears-- Oh my!
It's one thing to have fun once and a while and dress up as one for Halloween, or the occasional role play; but if this is something you do on a regular basis or actually think you're part of a specie other than a human being, well... Yeah. Animals are cool, don't get me wrong.. I love animals. And yeah, even people are animals. But ((people != cats) && (people != lions)). I'm happy to be have hands and opposable thumbs, and to not be a caterpillar.
It's cool to see people do what they like, and I'm all for that aspect.. But it's kind of what came up in the lame replies thread. Where do you draw the line on personality and behavior disorders?
Also, I hate it when people fight over the word "normal". Stupid fucking argument. "define normal" "what is normal?" "people don't do that, theres something wrong with you". Who cares. Both sides are stupid. The fact that you're even bothering to fight over it instantly makes you a loser. The debate over "normal" is a loss because it's over the ethics in the use of such a word (as a stereotyping label based on the status quo). People will still do it anyway, so who cares? "If it can be done, it has been done. And if it hasn't already, it will be." Fighting over "normal" is almost as bad as the people that whine and bitch about the current use of the word "emo". (No, I'm not even going to get into it.) Anyway, that's kind of related but not really.
Anyway, back to being politically correct. I think it's really neat to see people practice their interests, no matter what it may be (so long as it doesn't affect anyone else's ability to do the same), but this isn't something I'm particularly interested nor attracted to. I find it a little atypical and even a little obscure. I just don't like it, much in the same way I don't like over-steamed brussels sprouts. :)
