MYSPACE: Just out of curiousity...
How many of you guys own a Myspace account?
If you do and want to share what's the link?
I have one.
I still don't get the point of it, but still.
I have like four friends.
And keep getting random asshole comments like, "wanna cam chat?".
And it's like, uh no, I do not.
yeah, i know.
the groups pretty much suck. and the site takes forever to load. its pretty much the webpage version of talkcity (an old irc)

i've got one[url=http://www.myspace.com/randomstranger].[/url] All my friends are either 1: real friends and/or family; B- high school buddies who've myspace'd me out of the blue (three of them last week!), or 3: business associates.
i like myspace for the groups they have there, but beyond that i've no idea what the site offers. sixy: how did you get the background on your page like that? how do i upload a song for people to listen to?
happy 7000th.

You beat me to it. Damn.
i have no idea what this mumbo jumbo is supposed to be, nor what i'm supposed to do with it.
MySpace is the devil.

O word.

"... got this store bought way of saying I'm ok..."
its got a great network of writes, musicians and filmmakers.
I always thought about getting one of these, perhaps I need a motive or incentive to. It just seems to me that all I can find is sex. Or webcams. Or sex on webcams. Is that a motive?
[QUOTE=Six On The Dot]Myspace is fucking brilliant. At first, I thought it was just a scene whore thing, and it pissed me off. but after a while I started talking to people who don't have the balls to talk to me in real life and I don't know well enough to talk to through AIM, and I'll admit I've grown closer to alot of people and seen most of them naked.[/QUOTE]
Oh, because, you know, if i don't know someone well enough its just too hard for me to talk to them on, you know, the internet.
I have two accounts because its fun to make up names and have outrageous sites. Otherwise it is a waste of time because most people on it are retarded.
sounds like this place.
[QUOTE=alex cassun]sounds like this place.[/QUOTE]
Somtimes you think the knfie alex is holding to your throat is one of those jokey rubber ones; you know the kind clowns use, that "Hey kids, its all in fun" until he slices open your jugular like he just did now and leaves you for dead...

"... got this store bought way of saying I'm ok..."
but the whole "i wonder if it's real" moment feels really good, doesn't it?
[QUOTE=alex cassun]but the whole "i wonder if it's real" moment feels really good, doesn't it?[/QUOTE]
Yeah, o man it does. You get that intense adrenaline rush and you wonder if you can get yourself out of this, if you can kick his ass or if its all one big joke. And you tense up and laugh nervously until....
Its cold.
Plastic isn't cold.
Is it?
Maybe he put it in a freezer to keep it cold, or its just a butter knife like in Choke...
but by then its too late and you only have Chuck to blame.

the point of myspace is for shallow people to meet other shallow people and consort in shallow activities[/QUOTE]
or find out about shows from bands i like, and parties from friends i like. shows and parties are not necessarily the pastime of the dumb and shallow, contrary to, um, this belief.

I'm on there off and on

I have myspace. It's all friends, and we use it to tell eachother about the when and where of parties, camping, weekly meet ups and the like. I have some people from high school or elementary school (kinda weird) who try to add me but I usually don't add them if they were assholes back in the day.
Other than that it's cool to see some people I haven't talked to in 5 years, and this way we all know about who's having a party despite our busy lives.
I get a lot of random people and music groups that want me to add them but I don't add people I either won't end up talking to or won't end up hanging out with. I also delete people who end up being annoying.
i have one too. and search myspace for 'profile master'. there's all sorts of tips and stuff to make your profile look cool.
Not proud.

[QUOTE=moe.ron]i have a myspace account, but i got creeped out by all the randoms asking if i'd like to meet them.[/QUOTE]
that's because you're a cool person and they sense that.
[URL=http://www.myspace.com/16808441]not much filled out yet as I signed up at 1 am before I went to bed[/URL]
Likewise, nothing filled out much, I'm just 'a playin with it right now...

bi, huh? hot.
go check your friend adding thingy!
YAY!!! I have FRIENDS...does that mean I'm one of YOUR friends too?! Oh my god, I think I'm gonna spaz!
...ugh...I can already tell, this Alex friendship is gonna be rough...
eh, i don't deal in myspace much. i'm kind of a bad friend, so you won't hear much from me.
[QUOTE=alex cassun]so you won't hear much from me.[/QUOTE]
Promise? 
well, you might read a bunch of shit, but technically speaking, you won't hear much of anything.
[QUOTE=bssmokie]How many of you guys own a Myspace account?

I have one.
I still don't get the point of it, but still.[/QUOTE]The point is for people to advertise their latest bullshit by networking. EW actually said it was a hip site or some such nonsense, it's ridiculous.
I was here. Then I wasn't. Then I was again.
there are tons of good bands with myspace accounts though. i've had a couple of conversations with the french kicks. no lie. myspace is aiiight...
[QUOTE=vidalia]or find out about shows from bands i like, and parties from friends i like. shows and parties are not necessarily the pastime of the dumb and shallow, contrary to, um, this belief.[/QUOTE]

"... got this store bought way of saying I'm ok..."
someone took mrhash for the user profile thingy 
yes my space is shallow. but i happen to like people telling me i'm pretty and i also enjoy listening to the stream of shitty bands that add me every day.
so
[url]http://www.myspace.com/cptnawesome[/url]
i only started this yesterday and already two people from my past have located me. i did have an old account but i deleted it thinking "i don't need the internet to be cool" but apparently i do.
my space is a breeding ground for the socially inept.
so add me if you think we could talk.
ciao
