I don't see what is so frightening about death. I think it would be fun. I quite like murder in the dark.
Besides my very best friend, online friends are much better than my in-the-flesh friends... I've actually met a lot of my online friends though. :O
My real life friends are great but they are not internet addicts, and they like to watch lots of TV in their spare time, so I get the best of both worlds while they waste away every evening watching the tube. I would be so sad if one of my internet friends got sick or died or something. But yet, I'd hesitate to believe that they werent just making it up for attention.
