There was this teenager who would meet up with these friends he made online every day in an online chat room. They would all tell each other about their day in school. All of them were fans of the Grateful Dead. He started playing a computer game online that was virtual reality. He chose a jaguar as his avatar. This disembodied face in the game told him that all of his friends in the chat room were lying about who they really were. One of them was really an old man in a retirement home. The story ends with the face telling him he can stay in the game forever, and he decides he wants to. I remember the title of the story was whatever the game was called. I think the story is from the 2000s, buy I am not sure. Thanks to anyone that can help.
