Myspace is so totally early 2000's. I walked away from that motherfucker soon after discovering Facebook, and I seriously never looked back.
I do take a quick peek back at the ol' page once in a while, but it usually only happens when I get an email that there's been some activity, and that doesn't happen very often.
Apparently I got a friend request within the past week, and I've seen the email several times and thought to myself that I should at least pop over and see who it is. You never know, it may be from someone that I'd be happy to connect or even reconnect with. Perhaps it's the man of my dreams discovering me.
I finally bothered to open the email, and it's none of the above. I didn't imagine it would be, but I had no idea what to expect, and apparently they didn't either. I got a friend request from Official NFL.
I didn't bother actually going to Myspace because it's a slow and clunky pile of too much glitter and crap, and I just don't want to sit and wait while all the glitter and crap make my computer slow down. I don't want to sit here impatiently waiting while frustration forces me to try to click on some other tab which further slows down the computer. So of course I don't know how truly official it is. I don't really care as I'm not a fan of the NFL and so won't be bothering.
But really? They asked me. Do they pay any attention at all, or do they send the friend requests out willy nilly and just hope that somehow they get something out of their foray into social networking? Perhaps a computer sends out the requests, but even a minor scan of my page there would yeild absolutely nothing to suggest that they should bother.
Maybe it's a real person who just thinks I'm soo cool from what I've put on my page that they just can't wait to get me on their side so they can parade me around like a prize stud horse and show the other sports that they got me.
Either way, I'm not bothering.
