You always hear about the depraved sexual maniacs blathering about how having sex with dogs is natural and fine, but that isn't the belief of a majority of the community, and those who are considered to be more normal generally don't shove it into peoples faces. Indeed, bestiality is usually considered bad in furry communities, the real issue comes up when you consider fantastical creatures which are presumed to be higher sentient yet are not humanoid. In which case you run into multi-page ethical debates and huge conversations about what qualifies as "higher sentient". Asklar wrote: Even to 9gag fans. This actually brings up an interesting point. A community is technically only as bad as it's most vocal idiots to the outside world. For examples. People think furries are dog sodomizing deviants. People think bronies are fat greasy neckbeards who live with their parents and play with MLP toys. People think reddit users are all complete morons (I personally have yet to find much evidence to disprove this, but I'm assuming the 'all' is probably incorrect) At any rate, what do you guys think the 3-10 most controversial groups on the internet are at the moment? I personally think that bronies likely have the #1 spot at the moment, furries have to be at least in the top 20, and most large communities likely occupy the middle ranges between 1 and 30. (not asking this to cause problems so consider that)

1. Bronies, definitely. 2. Christians, or followers of denominations. 3. 9gaggers

The word "gagger" sounds like taken out from a porn movie.
Anyway, generalizing is a bad habit that somehow a lot of people have. Even that statement can be some sort of generalization.
Oh, humanity.

My neighbor gave me an old IBM computer the other day. Formatted everything on it and it's gonna be my low-risk screw around computer. Say hello to the Catputer. ![Image](https://pbs.twimg.com/media/A4-OngmCYAA3O8n.jpg)

So I think the internet causes me to procrastinate from drawing...
This is problematic for two reasons. 1. I do digital art, have to be at the computer for that... 2. My network drivers are retarded when it comes to reconnecting a lost connection, so I can't just disconnect the internet to force myself to draw.
That being said, I need advice at not procrastinating if anyone feels like giving it.

Whenever I do something I don't want to be doing, but I know I have to, I just keep going anyway. You have to just try! I think I figured it out. Music from Grooveshark or Pandora(though pandora is just annoying with it's ads lately), it's streaming so it marginally slows my internet connection while also helping keep my mind from getting distracted. Funny because I don't listen to music often otherwise.
