I deleted my MySpace. I hate to sound like a stuck up elitist, but I don't want to be another mindless teenager wasting even more time in the yuppie generation. I considered deleting my LJ too, but at least you can turn writing here into an art form. MySpace, however, is nothing more than a pin-up. Pictures, descriptions, surveys... It's all very conceited. (in my opinion) I'm trying to gradually stem my addiction to the internet; there are better forms of culture out there that are so much more stimulating to the brain. I don't need to reassure myself of my self-worth through how many friends I have, or how many comments I got on certain pictures or whatever. After my brother asked me how many friends I had on MySpace three times in one day, like it was a contest, I knew something was wrong with this picture. Even though I admit I participated in them, I got really sick of the chain bulletins. "0Mg... sOmE1 WiLL KiLL u 2nite!! UR LuV LiFe wil SUX!" Who needs it?
