I understood all the lingo except Steve. I don’t know that one.
Edit: Apparently it’s another name for non-furries.

This is the kind of quality education I come to this place for.
I've never heard that term. Most furries I know use the more universal "normie".
I love that nickname. It’s both gentle and brutal, and must make every furry named Steve feel so awkward.
I'm willing to bet it has to do with the default Minecraft skin.
That makes sense. I assumed it was because it’s a name you just know someone’s parents gave them.
Steve is the default name for any otter.
What's your opinion on this @notsteve_
