Mode Premiere: Move your butt!

Sometimes you meet a girl/boy and you find her/him totally cool and you can’t specifically say why. Clothes are okay, but not that great, accessories are nothing to shout about…but still the general feeling is good.

Most people forget about this but a good look is not only about what you are showing (clothes, haircut) but how you behave, and the first step is to have poses that fit your look.

The good, the bad, and the ugly

Two kinds of poses: the animated ones, and the bad ones, period. We are speaking about virtual avatar here, and you need to work on everything that can help you make your avatar come alive. Try a static pose in RL; that won’t fit.

From the private journal of Dr. Moody (Met a stranger episode 23)

I can’t stop thinking about him.

There’s something about him that stays with me, long after we’ve finished our espressos and said buona notte.

I’ve an obsessive need to know more. His accent, his mannerisms–he’s from the old country. How did he get here? Why? And how did he manage to get employment in Little Philadelphia’s only barber shop when the man can’t cut grass evenly? Read more

Private Paine – Met a stranger 22

There’s a new stranger in Little Philly now.

Interpol specialst Paine

I’d dropped by Doc Moody’s office to give her an additional 27,000 L for an emergency phone session when I first bumped into him. I didn’t think much of it. At first. Read more

How to be new – get your cute on.

If you’re new to Second Life and you’re at all like me (and some of you are) you’ve got way too little patience to go through all that bull on Orientation Island. You’re itchin’ to see what the hell is out there. There’s only one problem.

You look like shit.

To make matters worse, you really don’t even know how truly shitty you look because odds are, you’re in some place with a bunch of other noobs who look as bad or even worse than you do. But we all know how crappy you look, and you might want to look good, but you just don’t know where to start.

I call this a cute crisis.

But don’t panic! For as little as 5L and 30 minutes of your time, I’ll help you go from this:

To this:

I classify the above as a “cute enough” look that will gain you entry even to the most exclusive, sarcastic, hippest, catty, or snooty chats in SL. For the skinny on hot freebies, read on! Read more

The Test – met a stranger #20

“You’re back?” the doc seemed surprised to see me, especially with pants on.

Dr. Altamura

I couldn’t help it, I did sort of have a crush on this guy. Maybe it was that “I haven’t slept, I’ve been on call for the last 127 hours, take your shirt off – now” look in his eye, but the truth was I really did have a medical reason for being there.

“I need a blood test.” Read more

Portraits of SL Assholes, #5

Oh, a dainty little lady bunghole!

Portraits of SL A-holes, Ahole #5

Say hullo to Adelaide Asshole, a frequent camper at the shit ass casino in Topgol. I tried to explain to her why her presence in the camping chair was causing me and my neighbors aggravation, but she didn’t care. I told her we were a community of nice people, and her resource sucking wastoid existence in our sim was causing us problems, and I’m sorry but the bitch didn’t get it. Instead, she called me a whiner, a complainer, and – get this – a griefer!

Well, maybe I was ripping all those camping assholes new ones, but what the hell, we couldn’t move at all in the sim. What did I have to lose? A very lengthy chat with the casino owner proved completely useless. The guy doesn’t give a fuck, that’s for sure. And now Topgol is all laggy and crappy again. There’ve been some nights it’s so bad, none of us can hang out there at all. Nobody except, of course, the fucking campers.

It’s on now, people. The fight for Topgol.
