Do you feel guilty when you spend L$?

Sometimes I do.

Then I remind myself that a pretty nice outfit costs less than an RL cup of coffee. If you wear the thing for an hour, it already wasn’t a bad deal.

I have an RL cousin who thinks that spending even five cents on a virtual t-shirt is pure insanity. He seemed almost angry at the very idea and I didn’t try to debate it with him. But I don’t agree. For me, putting on some clothes and spending an hour with a fleshvatar is no different from putting on some clothes and spending an hour with an avatar. Virtual life or physical life, what I wear influences my mood, who I think I am, and how I feel. We create our identity and our experience by the clothes we choose to wear.

It doesn’t get any better than shopping with a friend. A chance to share the experience of shaping our virtual lives.

Come shopping with me!
