My younger cousin sent me an email, inviting me to \u201cmeet her online\u201d in Spicy Town. Spicy Town is a fictitious town in an online video game produced by the company that sells Slim Jim spicy snacks. So I went to the online game site to meet my cousin there. I had to create an avatar to use to play the game. It was kind of fun, creating the avatar. The avatar was called my \u201cspicy side.\u201d Setting up my \u201cspicy side\u201d was quick, easy, and amusing. I had to take a picture of myself and upload it to their site, then their program helped center my facial features around their pre-drawn outline of facial features, then they make a funny little creature with horns and funky hair, and then they turned me loose into the video game.<\/p>\n
During the game I was supposed to go around collecting Slim Jim’s that I found lying around on the ground. I only found three, but I only played for a few minutes, trying to find my cousin. There were other people\u2019s avatars in the game walking around too. Some seemed to be fighting with each other (I don\u2019t know why, maybe one insulted the other, those spicy sides are unpredictable and uncontrollable!) some were just walking around ranting and raving. The game has chat functions and buddy lists, but I didn\u2019t stay on it long enough to check those out, had to many other things that were demanding my attention at that time.<\/p>\n
