 Virtual reality..... It sounds great, right? Everyone is excited about it. But I'm worried it might also have potential bad effects that people choose to ignore. One thing I'm concerned about is that people might get so wrapped up in virtual reality, that they don't pay enough attention to the real world around them.

but seriously skylark raises a serious point. babies have died due to lack of neglect from computer gamers and they weren't even on your head. it will be like in that cool movie inception where people go to dream share and it's more like reality to them than real reality. Japan will be xtra hosed coz they are already totally hosed but add a helmet and no one will procreate either except through sperm donation clinics that simulate anime and women who want to simulate pregnancy and child birth but get roped into the real deal by a machine

looking forward to even just slightly-less-lovely-than-the-past-25-years vr eithe that or sneaking into peoples vr rooms and moving everything in the room just slightly so when they unplug and look around thye might not notice anything at first but that little part of their brain that subconsciously notices that poo poo will be like whaaaaaaaat but then it will be joke on me because it turns out no one actually ever leaves their safe vr cocoon where they are living free from all triggers

there are things my parents would never let me see or experience, such as fighting or taking a long vacation somewhere warm and relaxing. I can see a device like the oculus rift breaking down that barrier, allowing me to do what I want without worrying about my parents finding out

when it comes right down to it its a lot like 3d printing, i mean sure you can go all revolutionary  and disruptive  about it but when it comes right down to brass tacks i would honestly do pretty normal stuff with it, games and porn basicallythe boring humdrum vr poo poo equivalent of 3d printering fixtures or brackets is what im saying dont get me wrong i'm looking forward to using my imagination to blot out the fact that my dick is in my hand and im sitting fully clothed at a desk or something wearing a football helmet while i bust a nut into a disposable latex work glove so i don't have to clean anything up while trying to fool myself into believing im nailing some cpu cycles masquerading as mandy minxxx and she's cooing 'ooo, ooo, ooo, ooo' through my earbuds sounding just the way an old girlfriend used to do and im working at it, i swear to god i am then finally i rub one out and just as im thinking well that was ok i guess in vr i see her roll over and look straight at me and say to sum up im pretty sure ill just be doing the grandpa versions of totally normal vr crap, i dont want to know the horrible stuff the rest of you monsters would use it to get into - like minigames of sneaking up behind a cop and seeing if you can grab his gun and kill him before hed have a chance to react or something
