The TV Tropes Furry Club

's ok. I won't get upset if you don't like them. Some people will, but that's them.

Yeah I mean it's cool if you don't like bugs but it's going a bit far to call them "not animals".

What he said.

Besides, insects can be super-cute. Especially beetles. Mosquitoes can go rot in hell, though.

The animals that I think are least adorable are fish, but that doesn't stop them from being animals.

@Kite: The guy does look badass, until you notice that he's called Gabi, which is a pet form of a girl's name in German.

PS: Temporary furry allegiance avatarrrrr!

I'm mainly cool with insects, except for roaches which I have an intense phobia about. I'm the "catch and release" type otherwise... my cats are not so merciful.

On-topic: Would someone who is into Anthro-insects be considered a Furry? Or would it be a Carapace-y?

Mosquitoes can be annoying, but I have come to like them as well. They are intriguing creatures...

^I've seen anthro animals in general as being labeled furry. There are more specific names for the non-fluffy animals though. Scaly and avian are examples. But...what are the others called? Buggies? Fishies?

^^ All anthropomorphic animal friends are a part of the same supergroup, which is called the Furry Fandom because fuzzy animals are the most popular.

^ I'm allergic.

Strangely enough, despite my phobia about roaches, I found the girl that gets turned into a human/roach hybrid in Franken Fran disturbingly... alluring.

It's almost as though it pushed past Nightmare Fuel and went into Nightmare Fetish territory for me.

...! I love Franken Fran! I was most fond of the caterpillar girl...Or maybe Fran's sister...Hmm.

Are you referring to the one that ends up eating the guy at the end?

If so, I quite liked her too. Then again I'm a big fan of Anthro's and Yandere, so it was a double-whammy for me.

You know, we need someone to draw an anthro version of Trope-tan.

She's already anthropomorphic... she's a personification of trope taxonomy. :p

Oooh, that's a great idea! What animal would she be, though?

I wish I could help with the drawing. I suck at all things "creative" unfortunately.

Furry Trope-tan?

Decide on an animal and I'm on it.

Uh... Something to do with tropes. Something that collects things.

A squirrel?

She'll have a tree full of tropes.

Yeah.

Squirrel would be cute. I'm down with that.

So, what should she be named?

Trope-Fur Tan?

She lives in the great Trope-Oak and stores Tropes in its large and hollow trunk.

Oh and everyone calls her Fluffy cos of her giant fluffy tail.

-is hypnotized by the floofyness-

troper + furry = furper

trope-tan + furry = furpe-tan

Eh, I don't like how "furper" sounds... Maybe cos it's just a "V" short of "fur perv" which probobly isn't a good idea.

It was already established two pages ago.

Unless you've got a better suggestion.

Or, you could, y'know... not make a portmonteau at all and just refer to it as furry tropers.

Fuzzbutts.

I like Furper. It reminds me of "larper".

Aren't larpers also made fun of a lot for being really weird?

I know I suggested the name but it was kind of just off the top of my head and I'd hate to contribute a name that could make you guys easier to make fun of, considering. Don't be too defensive of the name, Kerrah.

Well, we could just settle for Trope Fur? Simple, no confusions, understandable.

Buuuut whatever. Internet douchebags would still make low blows regardless.
