I swear, if we can get one person to overlay the audio with a
fluffy singing in fluffy speak and throw a tag at the end that
says:
Fall of Cleveland - Coming 29 June [or whatever date] to
Ponibooru," it would be gold.
Note: Watching the first one, I couldn't help but notice one of
the suggested videos I'm getting is a Price is Right clip.

Hell, just Photoshop in a bunch of fluffies on a Cleveland
street and throw on a date. No other explanation given

Does anyone have any idea what's going on with Ponibooru? It's
been down since yesterday morning, and their twitter isn't
saying anything.

Oh, we're here now.
Anyway, I'm trying to decide which story set I want to drop
hints into. I'm kind of out of ideas for the Fluffy Factory at
the moment. Maybe the guys from Sleepless? I did set the story
in Virginia.
Let's hit the military aspect of this.
Firstly, Drew Carey served in the USMC Reserves. The highest
rank I found him ever having is Corporal. This poses a serious
problem for us. There is, under no set of circumstances, any
way the National Command Authority (the two-man system that is
the final word on United States military authority, consisting
of the President of the United States and the Secretary of
Defense), is going to release nuclear weapons to Drew Carey.
There just isn't. Even if the NCA delegates their power to
'junior' officers, these people are still four-star generals or
admirals, in charge of Unified Combatant Commands which cover
whole continents, like USNORTHCOM (the United States Northern
Command, which oversees the continental US plus Alaska, Canada,
and Mexico). I'm not seeing any way Drew can be the 'button
presser' (by the way, there's not even a 'button' involved, but
that's another story), unless he re-enlists with the Marines.
Even if he does, I doubt he's even going to be an officer, as to
be an officer, you need a college degree, and Carey's honorary
DHL from Cleveland State isn't going to do it. Unless he goes
to Officer Candidate School, which will take him ten weeks. I
don't think we can make the disaster unfold that slowly. In
short, to get Drew Carey to the level of Button Presser, this is
going to have to be a disaster on a national scale that kills a
whole bunch of military personnel. Like, virtually all of them.
I find myself agreeing that psychic fluffies plus General Drew
Carey requires far, far too much suspension of all sorts of
belief, not just disbelief. As for Fluffy 2.0, I don't even
know. It seems an awfully contrived reason to make fluffies say
'omg wes go Cwevewand!'. I kind of think the natural disasters
driving fluffies from their usual grazing grounds fits better,
because if we're going to render uninhabitable an entire city,
we need to stay pretty grounded. You know, as if talking fuzzy
horses aren't bad enough. I like using Perry Nuclear Generating
Station as a weapon.
Anyway, sorry for the wall of text. It's too early for me to be
brief.

That's the gap in my plan. I forgot his only degree was
honorary. :-\ You seem versed in this Mayclore, so tell me,
how can we get enough power in one activated reservist Marine
sergeant's hands to target a nuclear power plant with enough
force to start a catastrophic event that wipes out the city?
Meanwhile, after lordanubis' posts, I feel like having Cleveland
start a tourism board aimed at getting fluffy owners to come to
Cleveland with their fluffies, and fluffies nationwide
misinterpreting the advertising as Cleveland as some sort of
Promised Land. (I have this great image of Frankenflufy walking
up to a herd, trying to teach them, finding out they're just
going to Cleveland, and trying to convince them of the type of
town Cleveland is - but, Frank's not mine to play with, just
saying the image that comes to me). This thought got me
wondering if I could keep up a social media stream for the
fictional Cleveland Board of Multispecies Tourism - and would
our target audience appreciate the fact that we have a Facebook
page dedicated to the fictional government entity from our
event?

I like the way you think, Phil, but that's getting way too big
for a fluffy story. Let's not get in over our heads. And how
would feral herds who are all the way out in the middle of
nowhere get the message? I still think my idea of some sort of
pheremone/attractant chemical that gets carried on the wind is
the most plausible explanation so far for how the fluffies all
get there.
Drew doesn't even have to press a button or anything. He could
just be a witness as the fluffies do something that causes their
own destruction.

What if there's some higher up on the Cleveland Tourism board
that secretly WANTS Cleveland to be destroyed, he feels there is
no way they'll ever recover from their urban decay and wants to
start anew. A scorched earth policy if you will

The plan is to render Cleveland uninhabitable after the fall.
Wouldn't really be in his interests to destroy Cleveland.
What's missing from this story are abusers. They would take one
look at this crisis and jump at the chance to wreak havoc on
millions of fluffies.

Well the guy is crazy, doesn't tae the fallout into account
some else to consider, Zombie Fluffies, assuming that happens,
who's brains do they eat? living Fluffies? humans? cause the
latter seems unlikely due to most Zombies in fiction being
canibalistic and just the fact that no half decayed Fluffy would
be able to kill a human or break open his/her skull

Any brains they can get. Obviously other fluffies are the only
thing that are at risk, but the zomfluffs still try.
