FWA 2008 - Furry Weekend Atlanta 5 Memories! (Furry Pride)

[tayligoesrawr]

I think...I think what the media does is get something beautiful, and dig in so deep to find every single bad thing about it they can find. And, being a furry myself, take this very offensive; oh, what. One percent of us would yiff? Oh, I'm sorry, maybe 2 percent. *eye roll* What I'm trying to say is, this video and the song that goes along with it really shows what furries truly are, and not what the media makes us out to be. Lahv the vid and song, and DAMN I'M PROUD TO BE A FURRY. (:

[TheYellowWolfDragon]

I'm not one to scream "Furry Pride", but there's so much feeling going into this video that I want to shout it to the world! I love the video, love the fandom, and love the respect we rarely get but kindly accept.

[whitewolf1310]

I love furries! They're really nice, fun to see, and really good with kids. I can't believe some of these haters out here. When they see walk around characters in Disneyland they don't care but when they see them elsewhere, they're like "Oh boo hoo, they're so evil, yiff in hell, blah, blah, blah." Don't let em get you down my furry friends!

[RailWolf7306]

Wow, this is perhaps one of the best, and most honest furry videos I've ever seen. I think it proves a point in itself that, although there are dislikes on this video, there isn't a single negative comment. This one is definitely going in my favorites. That's all just amazing. Furry for life! :D

[Raventhewerewolfgirl]

this looks like so much fun

[toribash1000]

Love Furry I Love Them

[java100man]

i always thought that furry s were just sex happy people but i have Benn learning allot today and now i no i want to become a furry because i would like to no about it please e mail me about it hehe i want to try it out and learn about it :D

[ThePenGass]

Furry pride guys!

[catkidtj]

FURRY PRIDE!!!!!!

[althegamefreak]

I ues to think it was a sexual thing but as i took the time to understand it more, i found the truth. They are fans of cartoon/Anime Anthro Characters. That was my wrong doing and i really support the community of what they do.

[wildbilltexas]

@althegamefreak Thanks for posting, I like your comment. We've been stereotyped for so long by the media.

[whitewolf1310]

@wildbilltexas I have to confess I was guilty of the same assumption at first. Oh how I was wrong. And it seems like they love canines which is great cause I work in a kennel, and I'm also a member of Wolf Haven.

[timd941]

@wildbilltexas didn't FWA used to be held at Hartsfield-Jackson airport, like MFF is held at the Chicago-O-Hare Airport? I was in Atlanta 3 weeks after FWA '08 got over.... by accident. Snow in st. louis caused me to miss my flight back home, and the plane from Orlando (I was there for my 3rd and last time at WDW) to ATL was delayed by an hour, so I had to spend the night at Hartsfield-Jackson. Too bad I didn't see any furries, even if anyone asked me back then, I'd be like "what's a furry?"

[1123pokekid]

I'd tell ya, watching this video made me really happy, and proud inside, reading all these wonderful comments, it made me want to shed tears. =3 very nice

[NikkiOfTheCookies]

@1123pokekid Me too, man. ;w; -manly cry-

[technotorch]

Being a furry , is being the part of a one big family. And yes its a shame that every hater and troll don't even take a single minute to understand them. Im a furry and im proud to be one. Let the trolls and haters do what they want. We furries have a family , a big group that cares about eachother. Watching this video made me shiver and tear. Furry 4 Life. Rock on <3

[khoinguyen2204]

Hmmm, I wonder where Tavi Munk could be?

[lgveiwty]

It's a real shame that furries take all that crap from trolls and people who don't know what they're doing with their lives. We are all human, we all should be equal. Don't beat down someones creativity just because they're not like you.

BTW im not a furry but i support your cause :)

[AJTwister97]

furries for life

[AJTwister97]

i wish i knew a furry, especially a fox one

[ausgamer529]

i learned about furries from fur affinity and there realy cool

im not and never will be one but i gives these dudes major props for doing what they love

[godofwar153483]

i love this song..it really does speak for us furries..i think the trolls just hate on us cuz they don't like anyone to stand out in society..they don't like different..love the song and vid and all the furs in it...long live the furries XD

[RAP3xFAC3]

some of the videos ive seen make me want to hurt everyone who bashes the fandom. but then i see something like this and i realize that we should love our non-fur friends, even if they dont love us back!

i love being a furry! ^,..,^

[PursuitTheFursuit]

FINALLY THE PERFECT SONG FOR FURRIES :D

[ryland6774]

i hope those people and furries had fun yet it makes me wanna cry my mother is a furry hater :(

[McSlyBurgers]

man that look like so much fun!!!

[Cmetify]

This Make`s Me Proud to be A Furry also Im proud and not afraid to say im a furry

[126Hige]

wth is at 1:15!

[Crashbandicoot701]

I bet Oz is like(in his head) aaaww ain't he cute... boyoboy am I hungry! I think she will let me eat her baby. lol

[Thedragonrider155]

stupid question what is fwa, wat r furries and how do u know if ur one.

i not being rude i have never heard. looks like alot of fun though

[Timberwolf460]

That song represents us so well. Excellent video my friend, excellent video!

[iloveCrowfeather]

That song, like, defines what its like to be a furry.

But I've never been so proud to be one.

People my shun you,my fellow furries, but we are never alone.

FURRIES FUREVER!

[workingclassfur]

I'm a furry myself and I gotta say there ARE some stupid furries, but there are stupid people in general. There are perverted furries, but there are even more perverted people in the world. I love who I am and the fact that I'm a furry.

[iluvdeideikun]

i just turned into a furry and its awesome! rock ON!!!

[wingmasterjr1]

nice to see furys in the atl

[martinlarsen20]

this furry partys are must of the time +21.

because they sell alchol

[samadatha89]

this is only a few hours from mah house! :D

can't wait to go there......

til i'm older >>

[PopRocksV]

Wow... This song TOTALLY works for describing a fur. I liked this vid alot.

[Zurithehuskey]

woo sniffer

[Wolfsforever]

lol 5/5, in this world, you will find three types of people: Haters, lovers, then Furrys.

[AnticipationIsTheNew]

this video actually helped in some way... me an all of my fur friends have been fighting with this anti furry group and i seem to be the only one who is actually being intelligent about it. the group has members saying things like we are low life basement dwellers but they don't give any actual evidence to support what they say... just saying the song made me think about it... in this whole situation this video supported what i said "say more shit about me as i am walking away" so thanks :D

[InflatableKMH]

Furries Forever!!!! :D

[sandstorm534]

1:01 ITS OZ!!!

[Shemoku]

[Zmanz232]

Furry 4 life! Furries 4 life! That song went so good with this video! i give it 5/5. also, I like those memories! they rock!

[Furrydancer]

FURRIES 4 LIFE !! this song make feel like i should climb on to my roof and yell out to the world that I AM A FURRIE AND IM PROUD TO BE ONE !

[a01087483]

[klaus121991]

[EdHardyLOL]

[klaus121991]

the only thing that i have to say is that you guys crack me up this is awesome in the 24 hours that i realized that you have cons i wanted to go to one probably in 2011 i will go to the Pittsburgh one then Atalanta, then to Denver wish there was one in Philly

[Toklankitsune]

[CaptKujata]

[TheCapDoggie]

[TheKidYouDontLike]

That is great vid and thank you. :3

[exasaa]

i have a hope a big hope once day i can go on furry con and i will get my furry suit,that video and song are a very beautifull.awesome vid

[makru62]

This video makes me proud to be a furry. It's true that people have opinions about us and that's fine. I just want to say to all those haters out there that there is nothing wrong with being a furry. I you my fellow furries Furry Pride!

[therealDarkwolf]

Watching this makes me proud to be a furry. Yes, we are different, But that's what makes us amazing in our own way. Why are there even haters out there? They don't even know about the furries they just judge by how they look. Well, I say ROCK ON FURRIES!!!! : D

[hottacos1]

@therealDarkwolf Yeah!!!! ROCK ON FURRIES! Im one too! :D

[therealDarkwolf]

@hottacos1 You been to FWA? Is it fun? =^_^=

[hottacos1]

@therealDarkwolf unfortunatley no. I would have gone but I missed it this year. Although I am hoping to go to Anthrocon! FWA looks like so much fun though!

[DinMamma3211]

@therealDarkwolf Haters dont have anything to love... thats why they hate.

I LOVE FURRIES!!! ^^ <3<3<3

[crazywhiteshirt81]

@therealDarkwolf what are furries exactly.

[wildbilltexas]

@crazywhiteshirt81 To put it simply Furries are fans of cartoon art and animation.

[therealDarkwolf]

@crazywhiteshirt81 What wildbilltexas said . . . oh and mascots/ mascot costumes.

[DuamutefFur]

This song is so beautiful. It hit my emotions so strong I had to cry :' ) . I love you ALL my fellow furrys <3

[Sapphiron15]

This is an awesome video, and the song was perfect, Great job! I'm new to the furry fandom, and I hope to go to a furry convention soon, and I've learned alot about who the furries really are, and I am amazed and I would like to meet as many furries as possible! I used to dislike furries, but then I've seen videos like this and I've gained alot of respect for the furries! God bless you all, and I hope to see some of you in a Furry Convention sometime soon!

[Akwawo]

I'm Proud To Be A Furry And This Song is Perfect... YAH... Just Perfect <3

[kingofchaos7]

I'm a Furry, and I just have to say that this song is perfect for what were all about.

Furry Pride

[mobox179]

I'm not a Furry but I'm happy for them .

They do as they wish and

it makes them happy

Please don't judge those who are not like you. Love All.

[LucifurLindTan]

@mobox179

God bless you! :)

[littleguypainting]

Got to admit they look like they're having fun. Not for me but who's judging?

[Vulpeslagopus]

Great video, this song is amazing. :3

[Number6fr]

5 stars and saved to my favorites :3

[HappyWulf]

Great video, stellar song. ^.^

[furryfan26]

I wonder if it is possible to genetically engineer people to actually become furries? this is somehting we should think about for the future.

[JagerDingo]

Have you seen the tigerman or lizardman?

Its possible, to an extent.

[furryfan26]

i think you have misunderstood me as thoes people have simply changed there appearance i mean actually changing peoples dna

[JagerDingo]

Lol.

It would be cool, but I'd rather see the money the government would waste on that go towards something else... Maybe towards the animals we have now? =P

[furryfan26]

i only half agree with you as i do believe we should help the animals we have now i dont think it would be a wast to invest in genetic engineering for humans.

[JagerDingo]

No, but it is a waste to create real life furries.

[furryfan26]

why?

[JagerDingo]

I'm actually enjoying this minidiscussion. Its nice to talk to someone that doesn't curse like most youtubers xP

And its somewhat a waste because we really don't need a subhuman race.

If you've ever seen the movie The Island, they might end up like that. Organ farms for both humans an animals :[

[furryfan26]

i to am enjoying this discussion. Sadly The Island is a possibility but i think it would be worth the risk if we actually could become subhuman. We could solve several problems using animal traits like a lizards ability to grow back its tail. if we could add that to a human who has lost their arm it could grow back. this would change hundreds of peoples lives and this is just one trait. there are limmitless ways this could help humanity.

[JagerDingo]

It can help them, but think of the lives of the creations.

Its not fun to be a guinea pig (unless you are one ;) ).

[Nny2005]

I'd like to think so, but it's to late for us.... If there was a way to genetically engineer people into furries, it would have to be done at the point of sperm and egg. There is no way to redo every strand of DNA in our bodies now. Which is depressing.... because I'd be the first to sign up

[furryfan26]

now we might not need to change all of our dna to get the desired affects and i wish to find out by becoming a scientist after i finish school.

[Nny2005]

Think about it, a furry would be an entirely new animal. A new bone structure, fur, ears, nose, tail, everything. I've taken biology in highschool, and that doesn't make me an expert, but I know enough that it WOULD eventually be possible to write these traits into sperm and egg DNA, but at this point we are what we are and only painful body modification can change our appearance.

[furryfan26]

your probably right but only the future can tell

[Nny2005]

Thats true, lets all hope for the best. And that it doesn't take to long :(

[GeekUltra]

@Nny2005 haha I'd be right behind ya!

[SpartanJose777]

I'm not a furry, but it's somewhat touching that so many people are united by something so small, occasionally strange, and seemingly trivial.

And also, wow. Furries in large quantities. I didn't know there were so many people who were into anthropomorphic animals.

[Bailycaius]

Its nice to know that not all non-furrys are completely ignorant in the subject. Thank you for understanding what a furry is before judging us.

[CrescentWolven2]

That looks like so much fun! :C I wish I could have gone...parents....ugh.

Maybe next year!! ;___;

[wildeye810]

kinda wanna go to a convention, new fur so dont know alot, have fur freinds though,

[joebert423]

The most touching fursuit vid I've ever seen.

PS: I cracked up at the people rolling Oz's inflatosuit around XD

[kaykodingo]

very touching video the music goes well with the vid

[vulpix]

That six-tailed fox at 02:30 is stealing my act.

[Ponyshy]

i hope i can go looks awsome but my parents dont understand:C

[DaylenWolf2994]

Rofl Jasehusky

[lordmoldybutt563]

lol 1:36 staffer pwn

[therealDarkwolf]

MAN! I missed it!

[carbonicrainbow]

Best song for the fandom. If only all the furries could understand this...

[crash21244]

Awesome Vid! def. 5 stars!

[KadzietWolf]

omg i love this song lol

[FMAfanFMA]

Omg. This song actually made me cry cause it fits with fursuits completely. o__o

I can't wait to go to FWA next year. I'm sad I missed it this year.

[thewhitestboyuknew]

I am also sad I missed it this year....I even live 2 hours away from Atl so I could have made this one :((

[Blueshadow550]

cool =0

3:43 Buizel fursuit <3

[DarkWolfVito]

omg that song rocks...i love it...nice vid keep em coming X3

[rotzotheclown]

Fun stuff!  Rock on!!!!!!!!

[88WolFSaW]

Crap jase was in atlanta? I didnt see him.

[stopxmotion]

perfect song for furries XD

[BlueHayze]

This is very nice. Great job! *eyes glazed*

[IamLogikal]

LOL @ 2:23

Neo FTW!

[dragonwing22]

This is beautiful. Thank you. :3

[Rontowolf]

Nice! The song suits it pretty well =3

[88WolFSaW]

Sorry ronto

[Rontowolf]

For what? o.O

[BlueDragonTH]

perfect song btw!

[Truffletops]

Love this song.

Really nice video, it's very sweet. The pictures and video clips were arranged wonderfully.

[FMAfanFMA]

My mom told me she'd take me for my sweet 16 <33 That's only in 2 more years! So I'll be there for FWA 2010! ^o^

[Dragore94123]

dude you furrys are nuts *hugs* you guys are so much fun to watch i mean dang i really wnat to go to one of your conventions as a storm trooper or jedi. and have a duel or just join in the festivity's i give you guys two thumbs way way up.

[Khalhys]

Cool vid. The music track goes well with it too. In my opinion I keep thinking to myself that this is a step closer to ending Fursecution; the vid looked as if humans and furries... could coexist in perfect harmony.

[JayFoxFire]

Great editing! I'm going to the FA: United furry convention 83 on Aug 2nd 83

[KeairaElisabeth]

Wonderful video, great choice of song! I'm already planning on bringing out my Fursona by 2009. Watch out for Miri Tekker :D

[PaladinDrakkenwolf]

luv the Floatzel suit at 3:42 though, forgot to add that in my last post

[DragonVeeku]

love this song! and this video fits in perfectly!

[DanielJuno]

love the vid makes total sense! fur pride cant wait for FC '09 here XP

[Puppyloves2b]

Very nice video...being a closet fur sucks >.>

[PaladinDrakkenwolf]

i know how you feel, i have not come to full terms with myself being a fur personally

[Vailwolf]

This song really suits us, great video.

[Eevee351]

Great video and I'm in it!!!! YAY Caint wait for FWA 09'

[Whizkeyfoxtrot]

Very cool video Wild Bill. Thanks again for making it.

[Windancer53]

This video honestly touched my heart so deep. Thank you for making it. The song fits, so perfectly. It makes me smile inside when people in the stores see me with a hat with ears or a tail on and asks me if it's a "phase" and I giggle and go "Well, it's been with me all my life, I don't want this 'phase' to end." I LOVE MUH FURRIES! *hugs*

[RustyNormandale]

Very good music, and very good clips to go with it.

[lilfurbal]

Oh my, I so want to get a fursuit and come to this for 2009. That'll be my goal. It'll be my first con also. Seem to have found out about the fandom a bit late without knowing I've actually always been a 'furry'. Ugh, 2009 is a ways away. Did they have the glowsticks there or did people bring those?

[wildbilltexas]

They usually bring them to the cons.

[lilfurbal]

Ah, outstanding. This video got me to get this song off itunes, it's really nice :)  As it stands now my younger brother an I intend to make it to 2009, I plan on being in costume. Have started the process for having one made. Exciting times =^o^= Thank you for sharing this video.

[KuroUrufu07]

If I remember right there was a guy selling them outside the main event room (dance room). But I would recommend you bring your own just in case. ^^ Dollar Tree is a GREAT place to get them and so is Party City

[nemethpatrik1988]

Fantastic Beautiful Furry :):)

[JayFoxFire]

Jase Husky! *pounces on him* XD

[JayFoxFire]

Awesome video, it looks so much fun! I always wondered what's it like <.<

[fonos1033]

O_Q*tears* i'm probably never going to be able to go to a furcon*sniff*

[RycherMaxx]

Becomming a fur has been the best thing that has happend in my life,I have met some wonderful people and had the time of my life.I went to my first con last year at MFF.and seeing this video accually made tears come to my eyes,cause i miss the con soo much,i cant wait to go to my second con .witch is FCN Michigans first ever con in April,its gonna be a freakin blast........thanks for listening to my rambling...............FURRY FOR LIFE ,RYCHER MAXX

[Windancer53]

Haha you hit the exact same order of cons I did. MFF was my first and FCN was second. Awesome cons! I'm going to MFF again in November. (: See you there!

[Kanadewolf]

That was my first con, also! I really wanted to stay longer than one day :<

[anguish86]

This video makes me want to go to FWA. I will be at MFF this year though.

[Wolfswift]

Nice video, I recognized a lot of faces in that video. It was my first con, and I really like this video, the song is nice too.

I'll definitely be there next year no matter what. I wish I could go to more cons this year tho... but if I manage to save up enough for a car maybe I will be able to.

[Harleypuptx]

Wow great video there! Maybe next year I will make it to FWA. I used to live out in GA but now I am back in the Great state of TX :) *wags* Once again...Awesome job there!!!

[lilgreymouse]

Oh wow, that looks like you had such a great con! I need to make it to FWA sometime. :) Nice video!

[KuroUrufu07]

This song is great.. wow, who is this? its like it was written by furries for furries

[wildbilltexas]

It's by The Feeling - "Strange" from their CD "Twelve Stops And Home".

I felt the same way when I first heard it.

[KuroUrufu07]

hope you don't mind if I post this on Myspace. the world needs this video.

[ozkangaroo]

Was a great con, Very cool lil clip there. Song suits it well.

Thanks for putting me in there :)!

[KuroUrufu07]

The clip with you and the baby is truly heartwarming. Everyone deserves to smile with help from a fursuiter. I didn't see much of ya as Oz but I loved you as Duke. (i didn't know you were both until yesterday lol)

[BroadwayStar12]

Already commented on LJ but this was so good :) Awesome job!

[novazax]

Hi Wild Bill! I was going to leave a comment, but YouTube was being worked on. Kudos to the video and the choice of song! It was a pleasure to run into you at FWA. I guess one memorable moment was the Gladiator slap with the noodle-swabs. I gotta get my LJ updated and my YouTube videos submitted, probably until next week.

Cheers,

---> Wally Wolf

[Calufa1]

Amazing video and great job with the editing Bill. The song fits perfectly and I sniffled a bit. It was my first con too, and I'm already planning for the next.

[Terrorclaw]

It was my first Con too ^.^;; I LOVED It, I plan on mabye Fursuiting next year. YAY!

[iceboy64506]

Great video, I did not make it to the con, but perfect song man. *sniffles*

[jellybeans95]

I love this video. THe song fits perfectly.

[Ethelwulf85]

It was my first con as well. I had a good time though I didn't see myself in there. Can't wait till next year

[atlwolf3]

Bunch of furfags, oh wait. I are one. great production quality.

[XxWahablooWolfxX]

Love the video & the song! Furries 4 ever! :)

[Eevee351]

I saw me in the congo line!!!!

It was my first con and i had the most amassing time in my life!

[Organgrinder010]

Looks like you guys had a blast!
