It's not just you, though. Unless your Vs are really trying, you'll get some weird ideas playing live microstates. Most players at those stakes are just fooling around.
If your friends are very competitive, though, playing for tiny stakes or even play money can be a fine learning experience. Even one person playing randomly because "lol, it's just $5. I'm all in!" will really give you odd ideas about poker, though.
