Do you consider yourself a Furry?

[Ozymandias]

I don't think so; it's why people think that we have the capacity to be telepathic and all sorts.

[Richard K Niner]

We actually use the entirety of our brains, just not for one problem -- it multitasks.

[dragonranpu]

According to most sience we only use about 10% of our brains potential.

[Richard K Niner]

Prove it. I will point out that neuroscientists (the experts, in this case) have consistently observed a mush larger portion of the brain in use through PET and fMRI scans.

I beleive i read they were the remains of a sick and deformed individual, but i can't remember clearly.<br><br>Also, if furries became more mainstream, will the Republicans try to pass amendmants and condemn them as abominations?

I stand corrected.<br><br>Thanks for that, I am now a more knowledgable person! Hooray for social development!

No! Bad on-topicness!<br>Get it away! It should've been dead on page two!

And now for some more on-topic type stuff.<br><br>I nulled my vote.

Just saying "Hey I'm furry!" doesn't change who you are you know.
