Description

The Hebrew is the Three Mothers (Aleph, Shin and Mem) and the Three Fathers (Yod Heh and Vav) from the Sepher Yetzirah. I put them into a hexagram pattern, with the Fathers as the female (downward facing) part of the hexagram, and the Mothers in the upward facing masculine position, in some attempt to represent both masculine and feminine elements of divinity.

    of course it's a paw because non mammal furries don't exist

    How does this make sense? Mammals have paws. Reptiles don't happen to, Nor do fish or birds last I checked...

    Ahem.

    Did you seriously just link to a Wikipedia article proving you just used a word wrong (AND get six upvotes in the process)?

    Sarcasm is a tone of voice. You can't be sarcastic in writing because writing does not have vocal timbre and it is your reader who decides its tone, not you.

    Sarcasm also has nothing to do with verbal irony, the term you were looking for.

    You were just using this as an excuse to get out of an argument anyway, that argument being of course that furry is just a social label - lizards birds et al are still furry - so the use of a paw to represent the fandom is questionable because it isn't accurate to a large number of them.

    Of course, this doesn't stop Furiffic et al from using a paw as their icon anyway, so.

    So whatever disorder you have that has you trying to argue with jokes made from years ago, how's that working out for you?
