Frankly, what I found freakiest about that it that people would pay four grand for a Second Life skin.

Implanted memories don’t count.

I used to work for a porn site. I have seen some very interesting stuff that most people never get to see.

It’s a service that provides the socially disenfranchised something to masturbate to with their right hands while they hastily pound on their keyboards with their left.

It’s in fake money. After a quick Google search it seems that it comes out to about $15.

This isn’t freaky or obscure in the slightest when it comes to my job.☹

> A man’s entire face split open when he landed face first on the edge of a dock from several stories up when he was trying to hit water instead. Literally smashed, split into halves… no face at all… and he was still breathing.  
> Guy with the lower half of his face blown off, blood dripping down, staring at the camera  
> Dog drop kicked off a bridge, and while yelping in pain on the cement road below, still wagging his tail  
> A living man with bone cancer in his skull which had eaten away most of it, leaving room for maggots to infest the brain  
> And the guy who got beheaded, live on camera, right after 9/11

In those dog abuse cases just hearing that makes me want to freak out. How could someone do that to something so innocent? A dog literally wouldn’t pose a threat unless threatened themselves. Theres not enough :mad: in the world when reading this. It depresses me to an unreal extent. I believe in the justice system but…in cases like that I would vote for them being burned alive or drowned to death.

I’ve seen a lot worse come up and start talking to me in Second Life.
