Second Life douchenozzles still at it!
About a year ago, I wrote about some of the weirdos who spend more time than is healthy, pretending to look like George Clooney while cruising Second Life on the look out for Angelina Jolie cloned Avatars. Well now the Metro newspaper in England tells us that a British woman is divorcing her husband after catching his Second Life avatar having cybersex with other virtual women. Holy fucking shit... You can't make this up. The couple met online in 2003, and within months, they were married both in real life and within Second Life!!! Now, she claims her husband's avatar, "David Barmy," (That's right, he's fucking Barmy!!!) couldn't keep his virtual dick in his virtual pants. Last year, she caught her husband's avatar having sex with a call girl in Second Life. They have fucking hookers in Second Life? Fortunately for the wife, all is not lost. After being miserable for a while, she's now found a new man in World of Warcraft.
You meet the nicest people on Second Life!
Second Life has jumped the shark for over a year already.
This smells a little fishy. Gimmick?

(cant believe it was so bad i have to explain it)
the inference was:
that choosing a soul-mate from one group of individuals that spends hours a day in one on-line game is better than choosing an individual that spends hours a day on a different on-line game...
that there must surely be better ways to choose life partner other than their choice of internet gaming dalliances...
thats all, no more...

oic. I do have a clan (yes I know Im no longer 18) for Dota and WOW but hard to look for soul mates among fellow players without breaking character.
You knows whats so funny. Last time, people pick partners based on the books or music that they love. Now its the choice of internet gaming dalliances?
Funny how the world changes.

i think i might think it a safer bet to actually talk to someone about Bird and Dante and art and get together with someone (how i hooked up with my present wife, true story) then how exciting it is to get Denthenors magic ax out of the fire retardant shrub of Oakleon whilst dodging a patrol of rebel dwarves through the hills of Clarendon, or whatever happens there...
but thats just me, call me silly but speaking about literature, modern art and music requires someone to actually know something so they can carry on a conversation.
im not saying that the good people wrapped up in these games dont know anything, it just takes longer to get to the real person while talking imaginary battle strategems.
sort of like the good people on second life dont generally need to get out more, but they do need to generally get out more.
the world hasnt really changed, just the accoutrements.
