We really need and expect demos for clothing, but demos for lots of other things don't make as much sense. If I'm buying landscaping items, for example, I will always look for a merchant's in-world shop where I can see what their trees and fence posts look like but I wouldn't expect a merchant to put demo maple trees in Marketplace. Same with animations and a lot of other products. I'll look for in-world displays but not expect to get a MP demo.

Everyone does have an AH, and they often act like one. I frequently encounter those in SL (and on the forum) who believe autistic residents are narcissists (which is a pretty big insult given how society views people with NPD). If I see that happening I try to point this out (not by 'outing' them directly in the thread where it's occurring, but by suggesting other dynamics are likely in play), because often those on the spectrum can't help, to varying degrees, how they view reality. Pet Peeve: We too easily judge each other. Edited May 30 by Luna Bliss Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a shop (forgot the name) that has their clothing on models and mannequins so I can readily see what I am buying inworld. If they especially combined that with a clickable color change they have available, I'd be even more likely to buy without a demo as I sometimes already do. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bronx was a poster, once upon a time, here and at SLU. I miss her wisdom. Dx is short for diagnosis. AH.. well the 'H' is short for hole. Can you fill in the rest now? So, a diagnosis is not a license to [act like] an ass. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Dx" can also mean "distance", as in long-range radio transmissions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reminds me of a Canadian joke about American beer which I may have told here before. Why is American beer like making love in a canoe? Because it's ****ing close to water. 1 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
