On the necessity of divorce proceedings

Hypothetical situation: You come home after a hard day of work to find your deadbeat husband glued to the couch doing a grand total of zero. He hasn’t done a thing to help you, the house, or or relationship for as long as you can remember. Fed up with the situation and realizing you can do so much better, you snap.

Right click, about land, reclaim land. Right click, eject from land. Bye bye deadbeat. Right click, groups, eject from group. You visit the Second Life marriage web site and pay the 25 lindens to get rid of this bad excuse for a human being. Nevermind that your husband built your virtual house with his virtual hands and then deeded it to the two of you.

How long will it be before there is enough money in virtual worlds that a virtual marriage will require real life lawyers to sort out the mess left by lost love?
