your space

Sometimes I think about making a new myspace. I don't know why, but for some reason myspace seems like the end all (to me) of social networking websites. Probably, it's because most of the people in my peer group tend towards having a myspace, I keep forgetting that just a few years ago, websites like that didn't even exist. All of a sudden, websites like this allow us to create whole artificial worlds for ourselves, for the times when the real world isn't stimulating enough. Being a full gown adult, even I fell victim to the seduction that was myspace, I felt genuinely connected to people, even though I know those connections were never real, thoughts and feelings I'd invented for myself.

Why do I sit and compulsively think and hence feel as though I need a myspace? Obviously, I didn't learn my lesson last time, because I just started talking hella shit on people via myspace, I guess I did it because I felt no reason to be fake. Pretending is such a waste of time, it's more effective to just be real with everyone. It streamlines socializing, which is what we're supposed to do through social networking websites, isn't it? I do feel bad, talking shit on people via myspace was not a good idea, it was very immature, and I'm sure that if I had emotions I would feel bad about it (even though I laugh about it most of the time). I wouldn't make a myspace unless I had cool shit to put on it; moreover, it feels good to know that nobody knows what I'm up to...
