The day i contacted with furries.

Before that word "furry" for me was only a keyword for me to google, that I should use when I wanted some good porn where was no "old" people and only sexy wolf mans were :3 (I stumbled across it in 2015, where I was 14 at the time, and where google was my main source of material)

It was 2017

I joined random group about the game: Night In The Woods, in VK (russian social media that still pretty popular amongst young people).

Night In The Woods was pretty popular at the time, it was especially popular after walkthrough by popular russian YouTuber HappyWolf, he named his walkthrough as "Kiska Adventures" where he hilariously badly translated the dialogs turning them into one large shitpost, filled to the brim with jokes and sillyness.

That random NITW group had a chat room that was filled with weird people that liked animal people (JUST LIKE ME), and even some of them did that thing called "roleplay" with their original characters. It was really fun, and I joined that micro group that emerged from that chatroom. After spamming the chat with walls of text, roleplayers were asked to grab their silly sfw rps and do them somewhere else. And so I created my own chat with all the roleplayers from there. Where we continued our antics. We started as a cutesy, modern, slice of life kinda rp where our characters lived in one huge hotel in USA and interacted with each other. And soon it turned into complete madness with crazy scientists, demons, magic, aliens, parallel universes, time travel, hackers, and deep LORE.

For me it's the weirdest day, because it was a major turning point for me as a person. Some stupid ass chat about depressed cat formed me as a person, meeted me with best friends in the world, opened for me a beautiful community of bottomless creativity and good fucking porn, teached me about how to communicate with others (I was really challenged with that at the time because of my insecurities), and further into the future, made me a programmer.

Yes, this is not a meme. Game about depressed cat, YouTuber shitposter, and a fan club in Russian Facebook knockoff. Was a major turning point for me as a person.

A couple months ago. Had a coworker out of nowhere call me passive aggressive because he asked me to do a work-related task to which I responded "no" because I was working on something for a patient, and I wasn't going to start another task until I finished that one. There's nothing passive aggressive about a "no" imo. He apologized for the fit he threw that day and blamed it on his frustrations with recent management decisions (which has nothing to do with me as a NEW employee). The irony is he was truly passive aggressive to me a few weeks later when I informed him of a time-sensitive patient sample he was responsible for and he spitefully muttered under his breath "ok there's no need to micromanage." Man is like 40 btw
