Hi, I'm From the Internet
“So where are you from?”
“Oh, the internet.”
“Really? Which part?”
“Oh lots of places. I’ve been around since the beginning, so I never really glommed onto one particular part. I guess I started out in the BBS ’s. Back then it was really…”
“Yawnsville.”
“Yeah. I guess I was mostly on LJ. That and Ficlets.”
“Ah, gotcha. So what are you doing out here? Isn’t this place a little hard for you wetbrains to deal with?”
“Yeah I gotta say. I’ve not been this disoriented since the first time someone showed me one of those magic eye puzzles. The way you keep wiggling around there makes me feel funny in the part where my pants should be.”
“Ha ha. Perv. All you meaties are alike once you go discorporate. I mean geez, didn’t you get enough porn on the internet?”
“Alright, point taken. But how can I cope? Here I am recently departed from my body and here you all are, living out these collective fantasies in perfect harmony with perfect imaginary bodies.”
“Yeah, speaking of which, we need to work on your Avatar.”
