Hi guys, great episode.
A couple years ago, I was taking online college courses, and took “The Future of Being Human”. As a part of that, we had to make a Second Life account. Our professor talked about how great it is to make a character who is everything you want to be, look however you want, dress however you want, and so forth.
So, I made a fat, bald guy wearing a tweed jacket. (and generic pants)
It was actually a lot of fun running around in a world of Adonis’s and Helen’s and being the one guy who stood out. I got asked many times why I looked the way I did, whereas all the people, who if they were real would have gotten all the attention, ended up being background, and taken for granted. (you make Superman look out of shape?…yawn)
