Awootism 

Awootism Is a horrible disease that affects thousands of families every day. It's common for those suffering of this disease to say owo and :3 far too much, and to spend much of their time making art. After stage 1, they start to "imagine" being an animal, drawing animals more human, and begin to wear collars. Soon they begin to cosplay in ears and a tail, sometimes buying a fursuit, but in the end, it always ends in death for the victim
