First Life, Second Life… and Third Life?

Just how many lives do you have? This is the question that gets answered in a spoof commercial we found floating at YouTube. It’s by Rekel1981 and features something very curious.

At first glance, it seems rather ordinary. A guy walks home, sits down in front of his computer and logs in to Second Life. Then it switches to his avatar who does exactly the same thing. Yes, he also sits down in front of his virtual computer and logs in to – guess what – Third Life. It’s pretty funny but then it’s pretty scary, too.

It feels like Neopets where you can have a pet, then have your pet have a pet for himself – hence a petpet. Scary, ain’t it?
