I have a rather interesting question that I have never pondered, but suddenly curious about.
What is the plural of Furry?
Searches in several areas have yielded mixed results. Dictionary.com gives back 'furry' as the typical definition of having fur. Other spellings of the word are furrily and furriness the adverb and noun, respectively. Other searches on the same site yield different results. Furies, which is a popular one I've seen floating around redirects to Fury; anger, violent rage, etc. Below it comes up with Erinyes from classic mythology, a hideous female monster who relentlessly pursued evildoers Also known as 'Furies'.(learn something new everyday, I swear).
When searching the spelling 'furries', dictionary.com doesn't know what the hell I am trying to spell. fail
At this point I decided to ask Google since they apparently know EVERYTHING. It came back with this site
http://en.wikifur.com/wiki/Furry.The problem there is they use furry's and furries.
My best guess is that 'FURRIES' is the best spelling as a plural for furry.
Do you agree? I ask this because I am building a web server this week and the site I want is available with the spelling of 'furries', but I don't want to drop the 12$ on the registration unless I know I have the correct spelling.
