Finally, being a furry pays off!
Well, first off, I'm actually a fairly well-liked guy where I live. A lot of people know me from friends, or friends of friends, and try to get to know me. Problem is, though I would never say it, I really dislike most of their company. So this one kid, who met me at University, starts stalking me around. When I was at the library, he would show up. When I left, he'd leave, follow me to my classes and everything.
Anyways... One day, I was looking at this forum and he walks by. He says "Hi" before he sees one of the siggys here. And then he's like: "Wait... You're a furry?" and I'm like "Well, you know I have a borderline unhealthy obsession with foxes, I wear a collar, and I've got a furry as my laptop background. I'd say you win a gold star, but it just took you way too long to figure this out.
Needless to say, he's avoided me ever since.

But, um, California's on the West coast... lulz :s
and Midwest is maybe a thousand miles too far.
I don't really want to have to travel to Pittsburgh, to tell the truth. I wish there was more local stuff.
Anyhow.
You ever see someone in need of help, and not help him, and come to regret it later?
It's eating my soul now. I just remembered, riding in a car stuck in a traffic jam, seeing this guy sort of half-crumpled, half-curled up on the divider, with his little sign that said, "HIV+, homeless, hungry. Please help." Seeing it made me terribly, terribly sad. But I didn't get the driver to stop to help him, didn't even try, just shrugged and said there was nothing I could do.
I feel horribly guilty, living in conditions where I can afford to own a car, live with two dogs, and not worry about food, bills, etc., while there are people like that man freezing his a** off and dying by inches because of poverty, in my damn country. And I feel powerless to help. I'm one man, what can I do?

Who knows? Perhaps some virtuous soul took him in and dropped him off at a shelter or something. I know I could never do that; I would neve rbe able to trust someone like that in my car, for fear he'd snap my neck like a twig and buy crack and booze with the money in my wallet.
