The Internet is full of all sorts of weirdos, creeps, perverts, nerds and losers.

All of them living their individual secret lives, living out whatever strange fantasies they may have. Well, this story takes the prize as the strangest.

The other day, a friend alerted me to a woman who is willing to trade herself for 5,000 pieces of virtual gold in the video game World of Warcraft.

What the hell? This has to be the dumbest thing I have ever heard.

She is going to trade sex for virtual gold so she can buy some nerd accessory in her game.

Isn’t this some sort of virtual prostitution? I should have Buchtelite news editor, Mike Hixenbaugh, investigate this. He loves interviewing perverts.

Let me wrap my head around this again.

This woman, in exchange for 5,000 pieces of virtual gold, is willing to meet with a random guy/woman/farm animal (it doesn’t matter, as long as they pay up apparently!), who she has never even seen or met before and let them mount (her words, not mine) her.

Disgusting.

I have read stories where groups of people get together and farm gold so they can sell it on eBay, but this is ridiculous. There is something seriously wrong with this world when a stupid computer game can inflict these kinds of real life consequences.

I guess to seal the deal with all her fellow computer game geeks, she included a picture of herself with her ad.

I guess when you appear to be in your late 30s and have probably never held a steady job, this is the only way to meet a guy.

She also posted a success story, informing all the people that she found some nerd who gave her the gold and in return she gave him the business.

It’s a match made in computer nerd heaven! She even said that she plans on meeting him again.

Maybe those two will sell their offspring for more virtual gold.

Perhaps this is just the beginning of a trend toward selling sex for computer game currency.

Actually, as I type this, Hixenbaugh is collecting coins in hope of scoring an interview with one of these people for a future column.
