4. do you deserve to have your own space or even any space?
I can't think of anymore but 4 is enough to beat your 16 reasons.
1. It says Myspace and stuff. Not Place Only For Myspace Lovers.
2. That doesn't have anything to do with this.
3. Yes.
4. Personal attacks are not called for.
5. None of those were good points.
6. I didn't read all of this thread.
7. I don't like Myspace or Facebook or even cell phones. :P
wow..... Kong your lucky that there's not alot of teenage girls registered for this site or you would have start a riot...... i understand you not liking myspace or faceboook i used to hate these me self but im confused about the cellphones part. whats so bad about cellphones? if anything there and asset in this country

Re: Myspace and stuff

Cell phone rant:
1. Bad reception, quality, cutouts, static.
2. I don't like the idea of everyone being instantly reachable at all times. I think being a little hard to reach is a good thing. I'm an introvert though.
3. They are rude. You can be in a conversation with someone face to face and the phone rings and your face to face conversation stops while the other person starts a new conversation with someone that is not even there. And even if they do not stop your conversation to answer the phone there is still the distraction.
4. Ring tones. If you want to listen to a song get an MP3 player with headphones. I don't want to listen to your beep beep rendition of Opps I Did It Again.
5. Crappy photo quality. Get a camera. Or if you want to be really cool get a Go Go Gadget Calculator Watch that can take photos and has a walkie talkie and water gun built in.
6. They cause car wrecks. Do not use your cell phone while driving.
7. I do not want to listen to you talk on the phone. Everywhere I go people are talking. Take a break. It is ok to be quite by yourself for a few minutes each day.
8. Cell phones at movies, restaurants, parks and anywhere else are a big distraction both for the person on the phone and the people that have to listen to the person on the phone.
9. Cell phone companies are evil to their customers plus they are spammy and I have to see their advertisements. I hate advertisements. Except the ones on this site Though I have a plan to remove them.
10. Unless your child is a drug dealer they do not need a cell phone that can call anyone besides their parents and 911.
11. I much prefer talking in person. I think is good for everyone to try to interact face to face more often.
12. I find phones distracting. They often ring when I am concentrating on something.
13. Their is the possibility that they are bad for your brain.
14. They are not private. Easily taped and can be used to track you by GPS. This doesn't bother me. Seems like it would only affect criminals.

I had a pager for 3 months for a job 10 years ago. I had a cell phone for 3 months 5 years ago also for a job. That is the only time I have ever had either. Right now I only have an Internet VOIP phone that goes straight to voice mail - the voice mail is sent to my email.

There have been times when I wish I had a cell phone - lost in the middle of nowhere for example.

I agree with most of the stuff in somedude's first link.

Myspace rant:
1. Ugly
2. Do not autoplay music. If I want to listen to it I will press play.
3. Crashes my browser often.
4. Spammy.
5. Has spread viruses.
6. Search is not good.
7. Chain letters.
8. Owned by Rupert Murdoch (Fox News, Media Conglomerate) - separate rant for another time. I think he is evil.
9. Censors - Example censored Ron Paul supporters. See #8.
10. And just like cell phones I don't think you need to be that instantly in touch with everyone. I know there are obvious benefits to myspace and cell phones keeping everyone in touch but I also believe that this has a price to pay for it.
11. People obsess about myspace and I don't think it deserves that much of your attention.

I think social sites like myspace and facebook can be done in a very positive way. I just don't think they have yet.

1. thats is your opinion
2. if u wana be hard to reach jst it the ignore button
3. switch it to vibrate
4. set it to vibrate, also some people rather have a music ringtone than a crappy ring, also some phones have an MP3 player built in
5. what if you can't afford a digital camera or if you do you don't wana bring it. the phones the next best option
6. thats true, but if you wana talk n drive at the same time buy a bluetooth headset.
7. people do take breaks, u just can't call someone 24 7 that would be verry annoying.
8. see #3 or just turn it off
9. no comment
10. children have a very active social life, we need cell phones
11. that's you
12. see #2,3
13. no comment
14. in a way that's a good and a bad thing

and i thought tom owned myspace not "Rupert Murdoch" which i have no idea who that is

Re: Myspace and stuff

I use myspace for music. I use facebook for my personal life. I can give you one reason why this does not suck.

It helps you keep in touch with people, and that is a wonderful thing. People who's phone numbers I don't have and people who I have lost contact with are great to see on these websites, and there have been a few instances when I have found friends that I hadn't seen in forever, and I now keep in touch with. If you don't want a myspace or facebook that is fine, but I think it is a wonderful thing.

Re: Myspace and stuff

I kanda agree with Kong on MySpace and FaceBook, I had a profile just to find out my friend's email, and i just stopped using it after i found it...
But i disagree on the Cell phonees part, if someones irresponsible that's their issue, I need one with how much I move, I haven't had a number stay the same for more than 1 1/2, and if i cant make it home i sometimes need one, me and some friends got lost in the woods once without one and my mom was worried sick for like 4 hours, but if you dont want to be reached on the cell phone, the power button works, and keep it off, or leave it at home on a trip(unless it's in the woods ;D)
