"If you think that day-to-day life is filled with contradiction, conflict, hypocrisy, and a host of terms that have yet to be defined, wait until you visit cyberspace." Until now the Internet has, by and large, escaped the attention of humorists. In Chat Rooms in Wonderland, author Wayne McDonald offers the reader a witty tour of an offshoot of the "Internet Age"-the "Chat Room." Starting with a brief introduction to both the history and structure of the 'net, he then, using almost every literary device known to man, introduces the reader to the various types of chat rooms they might encounter while pointing out the absurd behavior of each room's patrons. From the generic chat room to those concerning everything from politics to sex, nothing escapes his caustic observations. In addition to his observations concerning each group of rooms, each chapter is followed by an essay poking even more fun at the subject under discussion. Chat Rooms in Wonderland is proof that you can find humor in the most unlikely places.
