I've had some amusement reading the somewhat dismal/humorous coverage of
Second Life at Something Awful and The Register (some of the coverage has
been NSFW, btw).

Something Awful has their periodic safari:

The Register used to cover it more often, but seems to have dropped off in
their coverage (perhaps because they realized it wasn't making much sense
to cover something they didn't seem to like or respect very much):
