You know, it’s funny. Whenever I see screen caps of Second Life attached to a news story or video of the “game”, it always looks like a pile of dog vomit.

Actually, I wonder where in the world they get caps of “normal” looking SL people not engaged in furry or sexual activities.

Seems like every day I am asking myself the question: “Self, how much more could you hate Second Life?”

And every day the answer (to paraphrase Spinal Tap) is: “None. None more hate.”

Yeah, but it’s so hard to get a woman to wear a fur suit IRL. Not really.

“And no STD’s!”

Yeah but could you have a worm or a trojan horse come through the virtual sex machine helmet thing and turn you into a zombie?

Cause that would be cool.

While it’s easy to scoff at such a comment now, and I think SL is a pile of doggy-doodoo, I do think from a futurist perspective that the integration of man/machine/internet is definitely going to get far more elaborate and weirder than we can possibly envision today.

RL Ugly transforming into VR Beauty will be pretty powerful stuff. And no STD’s!

““That’s the second Demolition Man reference I’ve seen in the past week.”

Third – see Brent’s post above ”

Damn, I thought I scanned the comments and made the first reference.

Oh well.

Hey, as a hairy hobbit-looking guy I resemble that remark.

AND I’m near to having spawned.

On topic though, it reminds me of that scene in Demolition Man where Spartan and Lenina “have sex” with those neural-helmet-things. “What do you mean, without helmets? You mean fleshsex? Ew, the fluids!”

Sleeping in the wet spot totally sucks, though.
