This is probably not a surprise to anyone.


I'm assuming you are a furry?


Not in a bad way btw I'm sorry

I can't recall ever being bullied because of my special interests.

My recollection is the bullies just liked picking on me...without regard to what interested me.

(Except, I suspect my interest in being left alone by bullies was an interest they took some joy in violating.)

In junior high I used to be harassed and bullied constantly for being intensely into Garfield comics and cartoons. This lasted up into my late 20s at least. The girls were usually indifferent to my interests but the boys made my life awful. They are such idiots at that age. :x

Like I said in many topics, I have been bullied for liking Looney Tunes because it is for a younger audience. Recently someone accused me of liking ageplay because my favourite Short is The Stupid Cupid. To the point where I'm worried about getting the doll. Well, I'm not one. It was the first Short I watched without a third party character and I just think it's amazing and find it interesting how it's technically Lost Media!


Imagine kink-shaming someone and thinking you're the good guy.

I'm sorry you had to deal with that person; they're the as*hole whether you're into ageplay or not.

Who ever it was was probably not "Kink [the British band] shaming" him, but was probably "Nazi shaming" him. Not just Sgt. Schultz he would post other pics of German WWII stuff. I can imagine someone giving him grief about that. And I would give him some tough coaching about how he should be careful and "post German stuff, but not Nazi stuff".

I always thought Six Flags was for old folks (and their invited guests):
