myspace rant 1 of ??

trust me, i have lots to say about myspace. i have a giant one in the works that i may eventually unleash. just wanted to touch on one subject that you must have noticed if you have spent any time on myspace. and if you havent been on myspace, youre much cooler than i am.
here's the deal. myspace is a breeding ground for marginal-looking people to boost their egos. two factors come into play here:
1. digital pics are deceiving: you can alter the lighting, angle, etc to make yourself appear way more attractive than you would in person. multiply this by 100 if it is a webcam b/c the pixelation is terrible. it's like seeing someone in a dark bar after 5 shots of jager
2. there are a lot of pathetic, uneducated losers on there: look for overtanned, shirtless guys, and overtanned girls with too much makeup, weird highlights, and/or "catchy" song lyrics for picture captions. this is like bringing together every retail, tanning store, and restaurant kid in the area, and watching the STDs go around faster than the mtv reality kids. be ready for picture comments such as "your so hot, babe" and "love ur eyes"

so, change your display picture daily, send out bulletins about how youre not a slut, even though you have pictures and blog posts on your page to contradict this, and make sure you have the latest emo song on your page so that your 10000 "friends" can check up on you. we're all very impressed.

i blame sex and the city

whats up with all the bullshit games people play these days? why not some good old fashioned honesty and alcohol-induced mistakes?
i'll tell you why. bullshit like sex and the city, which instilled false ideals in people's minds. it reduced everything females should do to a few stock actions and reactions.
lets go back to hippie times where people were honest or didnt care (were too stoned) to play bullshit.
you want a casual sex relationship? say so
you looking to get into a pre-marital relationship that will lead to marriage? say so (so i can run the other way)
you want to hang out every now and then and hook up drunk sometimes? say so
you want to "date" each other but be open to dating other people? this is a terrible idea, but say so

you get the point. cut the foreplay. for once try a small dose of truth...in the long run, it'll pay off, and everyone will be better off

you make an interesting point. but, isnt every "relationship" a casual sex one? (I know on our end it is) it just so happens that on occassion casual sex relationships [and confusion] DO lead to marriage. and isn't it also true that every relationship is just about hanging out every now and then and hooking up drunk?
i always thought the whole "dating" thing was just a label that made women feel better about being sluts. if that's true [and i have no reason to believe that its not] naturally they want to date you as well as be open to dating others. which just means they wanna live the dream-- get on anyone you want. no guilt.
...which is also the reason for the drunk hookup-- when there's no memory, there's no guilt
does any of this make sense?

sorry, i just got back from the bathroom. i left you a voicemail
*wink* "yes"

jesus fish = bad driver

religion aside, have you ever seen someone with a jesus fish who didnt drive like a complete moron?
for example, yesterday on my drive between oklahoma city and dallas, there was a joker in the fast lane of a 70mph zone doing 55. and no, he or she was not stuck there...i was forced to pass in the slow lane. as im coming up fast on this person, i see the fish, and i immediately say "get over! what would jesus do?"
...was that wrong? should i not have done that? b/c i gotta plead ignorance on this one

I'm only kidding! It was right there, what am I supposed to do??
