Curtis, the real question that I have is why are you disparaging http://www.pornandviruses.com? I’m wondering if you have ever been to the site or are simply afraid because of the name. Yes, yes, if you go there your computer will get a virus, but what doesn’t kill the computer only makes it stronger. The other aspect of the site, porn, should more than make up for the potential problems encountered there. Please, in the future, actually visit a site before you just dismiss it out of hand.

Well, don’t I feel sheepish. I had an inkling that maybe one of my friends was pulling the old wool over my eyes when I read that myspace post, but when I didn’t recognize the email address it threw me off. Well played, madam, well played.

I don’t like myspace because of all the crazy things people do to their pages, like backgrounds and songs and videos and all that. It takes too long to load and sometimes people don’t coordinate colors very well and it’s hard to read. I’m totally an elderly person, but whatever. I also don’t like how people can use codes to see who looks at their profile. I enjoy being able to learn things about people anonymously. So, I agree with your opinion that Facebook is better.

Okay, I can’t help but let slip the truth about this one… that last post was me. But I think the best part about it is that I did about a 5-second search on MySpace for a generally sketchy profile, and that one certainly exceeded my expectations, in a big way. So although that was not a real ad-bot, the link itself certainly reinforces your point about the sketchiness… and I have to agree.

Also, “pornandviruses.com” is so true and also hilarious. In an “ohhh… that’s kind of true” way. Like when Jon Stewart makes fun of Cheney.

I actually don’t have a MySpace account, so I can’t comment from personal experience on the argument, except to say that I’m pretty happy with Facebook (with some exceptions, like telling you the dang everything about everyone). However, AIM still beats both of them – first of all, your conversations are much more immediate… Facebook is useful to leave notes for people but if you start trying to converse over it, you end up with long strings of wall posts (like Hartman and I got into when he first joined). Second, only on AIM – as far as I know – can you add yourself to your buddy list. Facebook (and I imagine MySpace as well) don’t allow you to friend yourself. I don’t know why you would need or want to, but the option is there.

Anyway, in conclusion, yay the internet.

See? DO YOU SEE!!!??? This is exactly the crap I’m talking about. You can’t tell me that someone with a name like “qtgurl” isn’t going to be sketchy. I got this comment in my email, and when I clicked on the link it said “this account has been deleted”. When I clicked on the link from the blog site, it pulled up a profile with a picture of a hot girl who said she was looking for a guy, and loved to misspell things as if she were some really hip IM linguist. Her last login date was in 2004! I swear these things are just adware bots, like little agent Smiths from the Matrix, trying to destroy the internet and everyone on it.

Zing. I guess you got me. Really, though, I didn’t stretch one reason into four. I more had one really good reason, and made up three kinda crappy reasons to accompany it. And while Joe Theismann may be gaining, he’s still nowhere close. I haven’t even fallen to Gene Wojeichowski level yet. Plus, you have to give me brownie points for making a Sheila reference and a pornandviruses.com reference in the same post. But way to call me out in any case.

So really you stretched one reason into 4, and added a fifth that contradicts you……..I think Joe Theisman is gaining…….
