everyone i know who has myspace is either a chick, a homosexual, a gossip queen, or some combination of the 3.

same here. I know some people that actually get MAD when people don't leave them messages regularly on their myspace profile, when they LIVE IN THE SAME CITY. Pick up a phone, dipshit!

It's always funny to me whenever I stumble across "Stephanie McMahon" or "Paris Hilton"'s page. And then even MORE funny to read the comments from the idiots who think it's actually that person.
I have a MySpace page, purely as a time waster at work. I rarely even go there otherwise. And half the people on my friends list are on my IM anyway, so I talk to them through that. So I guess I don't see the point either.

I also have a myspace account. The premise is fucked because no one wishes to meet anyone else on the interweb on A WEBSITE TO MEET PEOPLE THROUGH THE NET. But seriously it's not that big of a deal, it's no more of a community that AA meetings

Quite frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn.

I have a profile, actually I just joined the GAF group =P A lot of the profiles are truly hideos, especially the ones with epilepsy-inducing animated backgrounds, embedded media files that play the latest R&B song, the ones overloaded with "bratz" style pictures and atrocious color schemes. But at the same time there are a few decent looking girls on this site. I'm too shy so I've been meeting girls on the internet lately (shrug)

umm hell no,
I found out thru a friend(girl) that another younger female(a friend of mine, not close though)
had me as one of her "interests" on her page-
so, I thought cool and joined myspace to thank her- I then proceeded to fill out her
"about me questionaire" and one of the questions was
Is there anything you wanted to ask me, but havent? So, I put down
yeah, do you lapdance
needless to say- this didnt go over well with her, and Ive been apologizing since then
ugghhh-- Myspace is Evil

I've been with Frienster for a while and have actually met some cool people. I've also met a few folks from MySpace and they were all uber obnixious. MySpace is the "super trendy and cooler" version of Friendster, and they are almost all drama queens and the such. I have actually dated women I met on Friendster but wouldn't even think of doing the same with some chick on MySpace.
Quite a few do just what Ninja Scooter described, and what's worse is when MySpace users spam the Friendster message boards about how much cooler MySpace is and how you're lame if you use Friendster.
Many of them clearly have no lives with all the insane amount of tweaking some folks do, embedding all sorts of shit that will crash your computer no matter what.
I am connected with a few folks via the GAF though, and they seem sane.

has anyone actually met up with anyone in real life by using these things?
I think I'm getting old or something, these sites just seem like a replacement for real life instead of an aid to meet people.

Well I met my current GF on myspace. Sure we both went to the same college and all, but I wouldn't have known she was in Chicago if it weren't for Myspace.
Still I would say myspace is worthless for anything other than music.

goddamn that Tom guy knows EVERYBODY.
a lot of what has been said is true. however, if you are assertive and keep at it, you can probably meet some girls (even if you're not that "hot") if that is what you want to do. or you could just register and do nothing with it. i exchange messages with 6/7 girls per day.. here is a conversation i had today with a pretty attractive girl:
"are you pakistani or indian or what? because you're not really my type, but one of my best friends is obsessed with idian men.... anyways, she's really cute, maybe you should meet her.
--Kat
"
"lol, its cool. im actually from neither of those countries. im from bangladesh (little country on the right side of india). i went there a couple summers ago, for the first time since i was three.. quite a culture shock. anyway, does your friend have myspace? its always nice to talk too and deconstruct new people.
sajed"
" I know this girl from bangladesh.. But she's sort of irritating. Or stuck up actually, then again I'm a little stuck up so i guess you just can't put two uppity people in the same room. Speaking of two, it's "talk TO new people" not "talk TOO." you should read my people i want to meet thing, and you'll understand why i corrected you. WORK IS SO BORING! I THINK IM GOING TO LOSE IT. No, she doesn't have myspace, but i hang out with her and her sister pretty much every day, you could come out with us sometime.
--K"
so, you see.. people on the site are basically friendly and even a fairly average "foriegn" guy like myself can find people to meet up with, if thats what i want to do.

I met some girl on there who lives like 5 minutes away. She was pretty cool, she was going to school to be an RN, and she worked at Stop and Shop. She also really likes Shadow Hearts 
But I'm not really ready to jump into a relationship again, I don't really know what I want right now

Actually, everybody on my buddy list are people I know. Well, I use Friendster a lot more than MySpace, but I use those type of internet tools to keep in touch with friends, especially those that live halfway around the world and in another time zone. It just makes things a lot easier.catfish said:
