Myspace Isn't Mine.

Sigh.

Oh, myspace. Do you wonder why you're on the wane?

I just read this, and while it's a minor grammatical mistake, and one often made, that's still no excuse. Y'all should know better. Should do gooder:View Upcoming Birthdays
None of your friends have posted birthdays this week!

...this is probably just an issue of insufficient coding. The number gets plugged in on one end, and the other end is always the same "framing device".

But still, yeah. I've seen Facebook turn into Twitter, Myspace lose ground to Facebook, but Livejournal still remains true, and true to my heart:)

You're probably right. And the fact that none of my friends "have" posted birthdays!!! doesn't deserve that punctuation either, but that's more of a semantic thing that belies the coding issue you pointed out.

Still though. Gross.

At least I know there are no grammatical errors ever on LJ. Everyone who posts on this site is so refined and learnèd.

Yeah, sure. Just ask Poppy how many times I've fucked up the word "forward", er, foreward...no, foreword...Ugh.

Please, world, love me for my sparkly intent & gallivanting shennanigans, and not necessarily my English-teacher-ness.
