#8 Will you be my pixelized friend? PM me! :) LOL

I have had a myspace for quite some time now. it was cool at first posting pictures and commenting on other peoples pictures and looking at what other people write about themselves. Than it all faded away one day and it seemed that i was posting the same thing or no longer adding content or just in general staring at the screen. So i kinda stepped away from it for awhile. Maybe i will look it over once in awhile to see if everyone hasn't dumped me as a friend. Cause it seems that if you don't fight for the top 8 people bump you to the back log of friends and never talk to you again. which is kinda funny. even after eliminating the need to be social in the real world and fight for the free time to spend with friends. we now argue and fight over a pixalized world where we are given a rank and standings for how "good" a friend we are. The theory of my of bestfriend is the #1 or my significant other fits the profile of "popularity" even over the great world of the internet. I don't much care anymore for social networks as i would rather participate in the real world battle to have true social interaction with real people. The only good thing about these social networks is keeping in touch with friends that may not live in the same area or you can't possibly see once a month. But for the rest of them... grab a phone... hook up time and go DO something with the people your friends with. Host a barbeque or a party and invite them all over and enjoy a night of fun. Plan a sports event and a lunch out. Don't get sucked into how much screen time you spend with your friends. It's not worth the suffering.
