REASON #1,000,002 TO AVOID MYSPACE - YOUR INFO COULD BE USED AGAINST YOU

OK, I'm going to start by assuming that 80% of MySpace users are lacking something mentally. That would make it a whole heck of a lot easier to accept that this guy was just a normal MySpace user who had mustered enough foolheadedness to publish a good deal of personal information about himself on his page. And to trump even that, he decided to risk a personal encounter with a 'babe' he didn't know anything more about than 'just lookin' for something fun'. Brilliant. Oh, and he forgot his wallet (which most likely contained his means of protection, so to speak), which is actually a good thing, considering he ended up meeting the OTHER half of MySpace, the shady criminal element/bored teen combination.

“I went to [the apartment] and knocked on the door, and there was no answer. So I called her and said, ‘I'm here’ and there was no answer."

That is when two girls who were 14 and 15-years-old, approached him saying they knew Natalia, the girl he thought he'd be meeting. They also said they knew where he worked at what car he drove.

"This was not the girl that the picture was of on MySpace," the victim said.

Now sensing something was wrong, he was ready to take off, but was stopped by a shocking discovery.

"[One of the girls] took [a] gun out and put it to my head and told me to empty my pockets."

The girls didn't get much because the victim had forgotten his wallet. They let him go, unharmed, and he called police.


Unharmed and unarmed. What a pathetic case. So for those of you casually inclined to post your salary on myspace, or pictures of your car, or your new bling, be forewarned. Those teenie boppers may not know how to spell anything above three letters, but they sure can spot someone even stupider than they are.

And they all, my friends, hang out on MySpace.

    I think the whole draw of myspace is to make yourself out as a kind of celebrity that everyone can read up on. Your own personal tabloid, if you will. Nevermind that the majority of these knotheads do absolutely nothing wotrhy of any type of praise, or even news coverage, except chug beer and party and post semi nude photos of themselves online. We really live in a world where shame is becoming an endagered species.
