Dancing on Graves in Second Life

Sunday, August 30th, 2009

Second Life™ permits us the ability to fly, teleport, look however we like, even change our species.

So the platform is certainly known for its ability to let you do the things you might love to do in real life, but simply cannot. One other such activity is the opportunity to dance on the grave of George W. Bush. I kid you not.

This is the Pirate’s Rest Cemetery in SL Belize where anyone can submit suggestions for the burial of ‘pirates’. Said pirates might be well known, like George W. Bush and his graveside neighbour Bernard Madoff, or they might be your ex, your next door neighbours… anything goes. Of course, owner of said cemetery, Kohrabi Wittels, reserves the right not to accept your submission. But if it is accepted, you will be able to dance on the grave of someone who evidently pissed you off enough to make you want to. Yes, there is a dance ball in the grave yard to enable you to practice your finest moves over the virtual grave of any random asshole ‘buried’ there. And clicking on any of the graves gets you a note card with the info as to why someone wanted to dance on this person’s pixel grave in Second Life in the first place. Completey random. Completely cool.

Only in Second Life…..
