Select a chore? Really, you have got to be fucking kidding me. Are we so detached from reality that this is our entertainment? Do I really want to simulate picking up shit? And really, are dancing and kissing chores that require the allocation of energy points? My grandmother worked in a Polish sweatshop for fuck's sake. The energy cost of her backbreaking labor was probably a potato a day. How in the hell would I explain something like this to her? Try to imagine explaining all of this in one sentence to a visiting alien from outer space. "We like to pretend to work while we pretend to have virtual friends in our pretend community where we throw food, poke each other, and rate bad films". We would be their slaves, and they would certainly mistreat us because we are that stupid. Shit, if I can find a human that is so brain-dead and banal that they would voluntarily spend their waking leisure hours simulating the unclogging of a toilet on a computer, imagine what I could make him do for work.
