Just to clarify what irony means. Good morning world!


According to the Yonhap news agency, South Korean police said the couple had become obsessed with raising a virtual girl called Anima in the popular role-playing game Prius Online. The game, similar to Second Life, allows players to create another existence for themselves in a virtual world, including getting a job, interacting with other users and earning an extra avatar to nurture once they reach a certain level.

Who's going to take care of Anima now? Won't anyone think of the virtual children?

With the parents in jail the virtual child will have to fend for herself. She might end up a virtual child prostitute and drug addict.

Jack Thompson was disbarred, if it makes you feel any better.

Him getting disbarred was like getting an ingrown toe nail removed - first it felt much better, then I forgot it even existed.

True, but it does prevent him from filing briefs anywhere other than in his underwear drawer, and approaching the bench unless at a picnic table.

And that makes me feel warm and fuzzy inside. biggrin
