This reminds me of a book that eludes me at moment. It was written in the 90's and had a katana welding delivery guy. The internet world was described as addictive but surreal. I didn't want to participate in that Metaverse.
Sounds like Snowcrash. I remember reading it fresh into college and finding it a fun romp but the whole premise sounds like hell to me now.
Yes, that's it. The author couldn't make it sound fun, only cool.
