If your profile is private, you're missing the point.

MySpace is a social networking site that's been around for a while now. There was a time when people actually used it to meet new people, network with friends of friends, and branch out in ways they never could before without it.

Somewhere along the line, the option to make your profile private to random passerby was created. This is the single worst feature of the site, and anyone who uses it is dumb. Having a private profile defeats the entire point of a social networking service. The site was created so you could make friends. I do think there are a few legitimate reasons to keep your page private (witness protection, extreme stalker cases, etc.) I'm just going to detail the other reasons morons use below.



I just use MySpace to keep in touch with my friends.

You already talk to them on AIM, MSN, Yahoo, Skipe, IRC, ICQ, Facebook, Bebo, Orkut, e-mail, snail mail, text messages, phone conversations, voice mail, and real life. Why do you also need MySpace?

I have to make my page private so my parents don't see the stuff on it.

If your life is so out of whack that you make your entire page unavailable to the only two people who feed, clothe, and provide for you, then you need to re-examine your priorities. Oh, and by the way, your parents can easily search for you and find that you have a page. If it's private, they're going to be a bit suspicious, don't you think?

Oh, but I changed my name so they can't find me.

If they can't find you, why make your page private?

I made my page private to keep the creeps away.

MySpace has dozens of options to stop weirdos from getting in contact with you. Why use the one that debilitates legitimate people as well?



People are, in general, really bad at MySpace.

A guide for you.

The word "too" is only used when describing something in identical circumstances. "I have a car too!" is proper. "I am going too the store" is lulzworthy.

Apostrophes are not necessary to indicate a plural noun. "That guy's crazy" works fine. "All centaur's are evil" is bad English.

Don't insult your boyfriend's manliness by referring to him as "boyfran". Fran is a girl's name. Your boyfriend is a boy, or, better yet, a man.

If you can't spell tomorrow, don't use it in a sentence. Your reader will appreciate the gesture.

Turning 360 degrees on an axis brings you back to the same point. If you mean to say your life has changed completely, try calling it a 180, or use a better analogy.

You complain about immigrants who don't learn English or have a hard time understanding it, yet you bastardize the language thoroughly.

Yes, it's easier to type like a five-year old. Something's ease is hardly indicative of its validity as a proper choice. Perhaps one day you are dangling from a cliff you've accidentally fallen off of... you wouldn't want the random passerby to decide not to help you on the basis of "it's easier not to."

tl;dr English is a written language as well as a spoken language. Learn to write it.
