Oh how I cringe.

ghostdriveMost of you know that I don't care for MySpace--basically I have no interest in it and also because I'm a big livejournal elitist. Normally I wouldn't give it another thought, but in the past week I've been asked by 4 people either a.) to get a MySpace or b.) why in the hell I don't have one already (complete with looks of incredulity), so here I am setting up a poll about it. WHY DO MOST OF MY FRIENDS HAVE MYSPACE AND NOT LJ. ARRRRRRRGGGGHHHH. As you can tell, even considering setting up one is making me cringe.
[Poll #817088]
If you voted yes, please let me know what it is you like about MySpace. Who knows, maybe my ARGH-MYSPACE-NO reflex is completely clouding my judgment about it. Maybe.
EDIT....(Fuck, this comment is coming four days too late [its the 12th now].) You know, I probably should have mentioned why I felt the need to post this poll (reading over this post I sound like I'm resigning myself to getting a MySpace -_-;). For some reason, whenever someone says I should get a MySpace, I somehow feel like they are subtlely suggesting that want to keep in touch with me and then I feel like I'm obligated to keep up with them. Argh, I probably not making sense again.

Obviously I'm way out of the internet loop if I even have to ask this, but what the hell is up with comments of just the word 'boobies' in threads (I've noticed this quite a bit in the Penny Arcade and VG Cats lj feeds). I mean, WTF. Somebody explain. Please. I feel so lame now. EDIT. Many thanks to ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
memlu for explaining this.

I'm sure you've never noticed people yelling "first (comment)!" in reply to an lj feed / post at a popular journal or community before. *g*
