Second like sounds a lot like GET A LIFE. Maybe they should change their names.

Uh, yeah - hilarious.

Because adolescent jerwads are so hard to come across on the internet, they're really funny when you do get to experience them.

I am sorry to have booted you from the event, but the Second Life terms of service make it pretty clear you have to be 18 or older to be in the main grid of Second Life. We were going under the assumption that you didn't meet that criterion.

You were acting like an asshole, fucktardo. That's why your shitty avatar got booted.

If you don't understand, "get", or even like Second Life, that's fine. Not everyone enjoys it. But to mock an event because you were kicked out for acting like an ass? That's ludicrous. The same rules of etiquette apply when you're in a social situation, be it real or virtual. Respect the rights of those around you to participate in and enjoy the event.

And as for your "reporter", I seriously doubt the journalistic credibility of anyone who starts a sentence with, "Dude". The guy was laughing at his own toddler-like antics during the video. Looks to me like he was trying to get thrown out.

As is they really needed someone to make more of a mockery of Second Life.

I still love it though.

Too funny. The event looked lame - your actions only seemed to add value to the yawn value the venue seemed to present.

Speaking of the venue - when is a cyber venue lame? A: when it tries to look like you're there when it really should use the magic of the medium to enhance the experience.

Your flying stunt did it for me! Great work. More reporters like you and I'd read more news.

Ok Spicoli. You are hopelessly lame. I'm surprised you were even extended an invitation. It will probably be your last. Reporter? Ludicrous.
