You know, you can blow smoke rings with liquid nitrogen.

<a href='http://www.csiguide.com/forums/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=190' target='_blank'>http://www.csiguide.com/forums/topic.as ... <br><br>At least that's something to explain the episode.
I wonder if it'll finally get it's own forum too. I've always wanted a place online where I can talk about O&M.

I'm bumping this because I finally saw the episode -- those of you who never got to see it can get a movie file of it <a href='http://www.lildobe.net/furry/' target='_blank'>HERE</a>. Anywho, it sounds almost like they were <i>trying</i> to make people think they made up the whole furry thing, it's so unrealistic. I can't imagine people taking that stuff seriously.<br><br>Plus, it's Las Vegas anyway ... if there was a furry con <i>there</i> it probably <i>would</i> be like that. <!--emo&:P--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... tongue.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tongue.gif' /><!--endemo-->

A general rule which seems to get ignored by show producers quite often: <b>Never assume that the audience is as knowledgeable on the subject as you are.</b> Also, do not mislead the audience, for you are sure to upset someone.<br><br>Bush obviously led people into believing that Iraq had "weapons of mass destruction". Why then should it be so hard for a television show to put forth an inaccurate view of a subculture which they likely know nothing about?<br><br>This is an example of but one of several reasons that I keep the television stowed away for all but one hour of the week.

Hmmmm...I just saw the episode myself...about 20 minutes ago.<br><br>My view: it was the funniest hour of comedy ever. I've haven't laughed so hard in a long time.

I've had people ask me "how can you take something like furry seriously?" My answer: I don't. It's something fun and goofy; if you take it seriously, it becomes too much. Fur-bashers love it when furs freak out at bashing and go nuts. The best thing to do is not care. If you're a fur and you don't care, then fur-bashers just look stupid because they care too much about something they aren't a part of.<br><br>Once you take something seriously, you get uptight over it and that's how people get pissed off and angry.<br><br>Edit: and yes, SexyKitty was awesome.

That's why I can't help but stare incredulously reading about the failed "burned fur" movement. Face it, if you're part of a fandom that includes people who wear fursuits in public (not just conventions, I hear) or role-play animals online and stuff, you can't really get away with taking yourself too seriously. <!--emo&:P--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... tongue.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tongue.gif' /><!--endemo--><br><br>BTW, I've heard the CSI team have a general tendency to end up investigating in kinda sleazy places. Is that more or less true?
