hornblower Posted August 2, 2016 Posted August 2, 2016 The only good thing about the crappy hair appointment I had a couple weeks ago is that while my boring beige highlights were dully processing, I made it a long way through Felicia Day's book You're Never Weird on the Internet (Almost). I follow Felicia on twitter & have seen her on Supernatural and Dr Horrible etc but I didn't know she had been homeschooled. It's an interesting part of her book. She is 37 so it was a while ago but dd loved her descriptions of it & it gave me an interesting perspective on how being homeschooled looks from the eyes of a millenial'ish kid...It's also a good peek into gaming, women, feminism & pop culture. A fun quick and quirky read. 1 Quote
Spryte Posted August 2, 2016 Posted August 2, 2016 Thanks! I'll check it out. Loved her on Supernatural. Quote
Guest Posted August 2, 2016 Posted August 2, 2016 (edited) I didn't know that either and yet I'm totally unsurprised :D Sounds like a fantastic read. For some reason your link is only opening a blank page for me though. I found the kindle version: https://www.amazon.com/Youre-Never-Weird-Internet-Almost-ebook/dp/B00QNW8KR4?ie=UTF8&tag=smarturl-20 Edited August 2, 2016 by Arctic Mama Quote

vonfirmath Posted August 2, 2016 Posted August 2, 2016 (edited) Does it talk about Everquest? She's a few years younger than me. Put it on reserve at the library Because you make it sound intriguing. Does anyone else remember all the CDs AOL used to send out? There were craft projects made out of them! Edited August 2, 2016 by vonfirmath Quote

She talks about MMO and her own guild addiction , plus her show The Guild... I think it was more WoW but it could be that I missed the Everquest references. I think if you grew up online just a few years before her, you'll find she reminds you of many things. Edited August 2, 2016 by hornblower 1 Quote

That is kind of what I am thinking. I'm sure I would have been on Warcraft too if I had not gotten married just as it was getting big. I hadn't heard of that show.
