Important question that keeps me up at night.
« on: Fri, 07 July 2023, 14:25:14 »
Who would win in a street brawl, the international keyboard community or every furry on the North American continent?

There's a lot of Keyboard nerds, but beyond touch typing they have no inherent combat skills, where as the NA furries have access to padded armor with their fursuits, and have a better chance of being an organized force due to them commonly being found in the upper echelons of society such as the military, their shared language, and being the secret cabal that runs the world

One, Two, Three, Four, Five, Six, Seven, Eight, Nine, Ten, Eleven, Twelve, Thirteen, Fourteen, Fifteen, Sixteen, Seventeen, Eighteen, Nineteen, Twenty... Yeah that seems about right.

If they keep their fur suits on, they might be padded, but their endurance will be greatly reduced by overheating.

And they can't see ****. Even unarmed they wouldn't frighten me.

I get the impression that most furries are only really active online and don't actually own fursuits or participate in furry conventions and such. If that is indeed the case, I assume the average furry is about as physically capable as the average keyboard enthusiast, so it would all come down to who has more fighters, and to be honest I think there might be more furries in North America than people who consider themselves a part of the keyboard community.

Next-time at the keyboard meet up, everyone takes a fitness survey,  randomly choose 10 individuals at the end of the day for a fitness exam.

Then we'll have a crossover member, who's also a furry/keebr' apply it at their next meet up.

Fighting is for animals.
"However, even though I was born in the Mesozoic, I do know what anyone who wants to reach out to young people should say: Billionaires took your money. They took your chance to buy a home. They took your chance at a good education. They stole your opportunities. Billionaires took the things you want in life. If you really want those things, you have to take them back.
That's the message. That's the whole message. Say that every day, not just to reach America's frustrated young white men, but people of every age, race, and gender.
Late-stage capitalism is a wealth-concentration engine, focused on vacuuming up every dollar and putting it in as few hands as possible. Republicans are helping that vacuum suck.
How does a tiny fraction of the population get away with this? They do it by dividing the other 99% of Americans against themselves."

There would definitely be a lot more furries even in NA,, than the keyboard community internationally, the larger number would probably win in that fight. Also this assumes every keyboard nerd can touch type, which from personal experience isn't true lol.

cherry blacks - unlubed - filmed and springswapped with tx 55g mediums - alu Plate | pretty happy with this, the blacks were cherry picked so they weren't that scratchy to begin with, but currently breaking them in, may lube them with a dry lube like ro59 or ptfe powder.

lubed with tribosys 3203 | like topre a lot, prefer it lubed but did make less tactile but that might have been a skill issue. probably will get more tactile over time as the domes age.

bad orange alps lol | definitely needs a restoration. planning on wax boiling them and maybe a replacement pcb because the board has only 2 key rollover apparently.

gateron yellows - lubed with 205g0 - 62g tx mediums - pc plate | probably my favourite keyboard already, feels super nice and sounds pretty good, it's got a great layout as well. probably gonna build this with mx browns, I feel like it would suit the board more.
| camo filco

stock with silent reds | Pretty cool looking board, the silent reds are actually good, they are smooth and I don't mind the mushiness (it's not even that mushy as well). the layout is pretty weird, but is useable. will probably mod this in the future. maybe a pcb and plate swap, change the keycaps to something dolch like, and also spring swap the springs in the silent reds.

stock, needs a cleaning and probably replacement foam. Do plan to change layout so it has split bs and rs, as well as ansi enter.

Built with new nixies on pc half plate. Love this board already, probably the best looking board I own, those brass accents are so mint. Really like it as is, but I do want to try an alu build (probably with nixies as well) just to experiment with that.

Tsun Tzu said that, and I think he knows a little bit more about fighting than you do pal because he invented it!

Espionage, interesting. It might just work.

he invented it!


Fighting has existed since creatures became mobile.

A book that was brilliantly encouraging - until Trumpism and the MAGA movement came along - is  https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/11107244-the-better-angels-of-our-nature

Personally, I legitmately hold a black belt but have never fought anyone against his/her will.
