*drum roll*
Why, it's 2 the Ranting Gryphon's rant on furry discrimination! For those of you not in the loop, 2 the Ranting Gryphon is a furry who uh, rants. Sort of like Denis Leary in a catsuit, I suppose.
There's a few things that sets this rant aside from the usual furry rants however:
1. "2" isn't embarrassed about being a weird furry freak on the Internet - he actually posts a picture of his 'RL' self. (RL means 'real life'. You'll need to know this for when you listen to the link in a second). I presume unlike me he mustn't have a job that requires meeting people. This may tie into point 2 which is..
2. "2" is selling his rants on CD. Presumably there's a market of people who want to listen to:
a. his voice more than once
b. cheap techno in the background
c. both?
3. This rant on 'furry discrimination' isn't the usual furry "OMG a coworker at Starbucks found out I was a furry, now they're all weird, I think they've been drinking Hatorade" fare. This is furry on furry furor. I was tempted to say "hate crimes" just then, but hate crimes isn't a strong enough word for this, "2" manages to cram at least 5 references to the Holocaust AND banging his antagonist's mother into this precious 4 minutes 31 seconds broadcast. As an unrelated aside, I think if we were able to travel back in time and show Hitler just the sorts of arguments and people who (successfully) argue their cause by using the Holocaust for a comparison, he would have remained a painter. There might be a science fiction story in there somewhere, but I certainly won't be writing it. My last Hitler-time-travel story went badly enough as it was*.
The only reason I can explain the possibility of point number 2 occurring is the same reason of the success of Napoleon Bonamite; through the fourth wall it's amusing but if you were a kid at the school you would be weirded out.
Anyway, mosey on over to http://www.ranting-gryphon.com/Rants.ht

* - I think we all know this one, Jewish scientist perfects time travel, wants to kill Hitler but knows he can't change course of history, so he goes back to Hitler as a 6 year old child and says "This is on behalf of all the Jews in the world" and gives Hitler a spanking. Hitler grows up with an irrational hatred of Jews and history continues exactly as always, WW2 and all. This story always got rejected from Reader's Digest because the last sentence in the story was "SO THE JEWS CAUSED THE HOLOCAUST AFTER ALL".
