WTF, A single line about SL, a whole page about There!!
"Second Life is a virtual world created by Linden Lab. It is closely related to There." Anyone got a wikipedia account? |

Anyone can edit the pages, but I do have a Wikipedia account. I'll add a blurb about SL, and people can go in there and either add whatever they want to in it, or post them to the forums in a new post i'm going to make.

"In those songs, the phrase is used exclusively for identifying voluptuous female buttocks."

WTF is C3PO supposed to be USEFUL for anyway, besides whining? Stupid piece of scrap metal would be more useful recycled as a toaster. But even that would suck, because who would want to listen to a whining wussy toaster? Is he gold plated? If that's the case he should just be melted down into gold ingots. Help the economy some, and stop being so damn useless you stupid bucket of bolts! R2 is 1,000 times more useful than your tin man ass, and he's shaped like a salt and pepper shaker FFS! |

Ugh... w00t... Also I heard it meaning other things too, but I forget what, heh.
I like the updates to the SL page for Wikipedia, nice job whoever did that. The There entry for Wikipedia looks bad now compare to it. ![]() _____________________

hmm..
04-28-2004 21:02
just went back and read through the SL entry again..
may i suggest italicizing 'human' when describing us as being represented by a human avatar? i wouldn't really call myself human.. probably either an alien.. or an alternate-reality being.. or a visual representation of a reality shift.. or.. um.. yeah.. just not really human. not to mention demons, furries, angels, cherub(s), mutants, dragons, zebras, and so on... maybe it should be 'represented by an avatar that's based off of a human frame, but can be made to appear as [insert all names in list above.. don't forget aliens]? _____________________

i know...
04-28-2004 21:43
but the original post about it said you can add things, but please don't change them.
just wanted to respect that and offer a suggestion instead of changing someone else words. although, i suppose i could add a line or two about the versatility of avatar creation and modification... ..maybe tomorrow, it's bed-time here. ![]() _____________________
