I really want to personally thank you for introducing me to those stories (though I'll probably go mad with how many of them I've still got left to read!)
Now, after giving it some more thought, I think turning into an antropomorphic animal character would make a sensation at antrocon! :roll:
Because not all overly religious zealots are forum trolls.

It'd probably be miserable at best if i was the only one, because what do people do with things that are new and foreign?
Beat the crap out of them

I would be really happy if it happened to 50%+ of people

I would tell people to live with it and move on about my life. But my parents, who already think anthros are the devil's assistants, would go ballistic and probably try to kill me.

Well that's depressing. Keep this in mind though: the scenario most of us are assuming here is that you're not the only one who's changed. If you really think they'd do that, at the very least running is a viable option: you will probably have allies in the event of the very likely social unrest.

And here I go again on an off-topic rant on why I don't like religion in general: I am just put off by the way it twists people's loyalties around, to the point where they firmly believe God takes priority over family, and as a result are totally OK with stabbing their mother, father, brother and/or sister in the back once they become an enemy of the religion. Bleargh. Disgusting. This isn't even a problem I have with any single religion, just all of them. #omgsocynical

I would become the first Furry president. I would then expand my borders until I ruled more than 80% of the earth. After that, I would announce world peace. Best. President. Ever.

PM'd this to MUD, but just in case anyone else is interested... http://wolfteam.softnyx.net/
I don't think the developers are U.S. though, so pardon them if their english kinda sucks/storyline seems screwy.

Going back on topic, I'd probably try and self-study my physiology to an extent, to learn how to use my new form better, and start a limited knowledge-base of medical data. You know, so less scrupulous scientists won't have to do anything crazy to us...

Those two goals look a little contradictory to me. You can have one or the other, but being a town mascot isn't hiding you from the government. Hiding you from the government isn't letting you be town mascot.

Of course, I'm overanalysing this.

Depends on the situation if others had this happen to them.
If so:
A. Freak out untill I see another person freaking out by happenstance from my window.
B. Stay calm until the very moment I see a person freaking out from my window.
C. Hide somewhere, Form a Anthro Rights Movement (Assuming all affected rejected and all made paria socially and legaly) win rights with a long stuggle of peace movements and trying to convince everyone we are still human. Win rights, and live "Happily" ever after in a low-paying job because we are still rejected socially.
D. Deal with it.

If not:
A. Become a hermit in a cave far away.
B. Freak out until I grasp the situation and work out a plan to survive while staying hidden.
C. Same as B, Except calm.
D. Try to use this whole thing to my advantage in some logical, or non-logical way.

Also, to the secondary question of full or part anthro, I am on the fence.....
Do you have any last words?

Yes, Just three

... Okay, Moving on.

If it happened to many people (so that furries would be normal), it would be very strange, but also cool.
I would be like "WTF!?" :shock:, until I discover it happened to other people, then I would be very happy about it :grin:.

If it happened only to me scientist would want to study me, etc. (it has been mentioned before)

I suggest taking a look at the Paradise universe - It's actually a very good look at this concept. The premise is that every year from 1987 on, people start transforming randomly into Anthros, starting with one person and doubling every year.
