official pony thread
>>77725156right, i was kidding. i'm somewhat surprised it wasn't you to begin with.
>>77725252I was good, I only wore my suit for thr closing ceremonies. One anon and one staff separately told me 'animal man, go home', but once you embrace being a furry, other people's disapproval loses any potency that may have residually existed after embracing ponies. Having said, I don't support non-pony or related at a pony con, and even though my minotaur is as pony related as any OC, propriety and 'decorum' are a thing
I want to be recognizable in the pony/furry fandom, but gradually. If I had engaged that furry, photos would be taken and posted, and it's a little early for that. I WAS prepared to put the suit on and counter-protest any twitter furries who were talking about protesting the con, but they never showed
>>77725496they were probably just a bunch of introverted autists with down syndrome, howling at the moon on twitter. more bark than bite.
>>77725583Low-key glad they didn't. I have a bunch of those re-freezeable neck rings, but it does NOT pay to wear a fursuit outside in Florida at the end of summer
>>77725651i can see how that would be a problem.
>>77725702Even with the rings, I was dripping sweat just being in a large room full of anons. I still would have done it - for the memes if nothing else - and having a cold ahower 200 paces or so through a VERY well air-conditioned hotel would have enabled me to stay out there longer than any protesters could, but tjat would be afterI got soaked through with sweat
>>77725812i can't see how something like that is healthy even if you stay hydrated
>>77725947Certainly not something to make any habit of, but as a one-time thing it'd have been fine.
.>>77726079gotta stay hydrated. there used to be a guy who would show up in the thread every day and remind us to do just that.
>>77726468Hail hydrate
>>77726660daily reminder that you don't necessarily need to drink water in order to stay hydrated.
>>77726885Oh? Tell me more
>>77727473most drinks that are wet have enough to keep you hydrated.
>>77727799Oh, well yes. Technically, you can draw moisture from food (often leading to obesity), but nothinv hydrates like water, everything else is electrolyte maintenance
>>77728303energy drinks have tons of electrolytes and are wet.
>>77728561Absolutely, whether power/gatoraid/etc or something powdered like 'liquid' IV. But the best thing is pickle juice (and if needed) lemon wedges. Trust me, when your body needs vitamin c, lemon wedges are delicious
>>77728650pickle juice is wonderful.
>>77729323Right? I drink more pickle juice than I eat pickles.>wastefulThere are more egregious sins than throwing out sliced pickles that won't be eaten
>>77729658my granddad's favorite food was green beans soaked in pickle juice. i used to have it all the time when i was a kid.
>>77728650If it's winter I just eat extra grapefruit.
Only another 1.5 or 2 months before grapefruit season.
What is the best fruit and why is it red grapefruit?
>>77732740By it's self, not a fan, bit with some powdered sugar, now you're talking>>77734960G'mornin Smokey
>>77735267good morning.
