Please...convince me that I'm not alone

[flvegan]

I don't have, nor likely will ever have a "myspace" page. I think that I'm the only human that doesn't. Nothing against those that have a "myspace" page, but I really need to know that I'm not the only one without one.

Notwithstanding, I've been poked, prodded and nudged to having said "myspace" page, but all things considered, I just don't think that I want one.

If I'm wrong, I will subsequently create a myspace page and beg you all to be my friends (as defined by the TOS of myspace.com).

So...whatcha drinking tonight, eh?

[CaliforniaPeggy]

1. My dear flvegan...

I actually do have one.....

But I only visit it when there are messages for me...

If you don't want one, then by all means forget it!

I'm not even sure why I still keep mine.....

:hi:

[Prisoner_Number_Six]

2. I don't have one either.

No biggie- to me it's just not that vital. 99.9% of all myspace profiles are 100% fake, anyway.

[EFerrari]

3. I don't have one because I don't need one more space

to fill up with cR@P.

:shrug:

If I'm wrong, maybe I can timeshare with you. :)

[Nicole]

4. You are not alone.

I don't have one either.

I'm drinking white wine.

[yewberry]

5. Meh.

Myspace--another fad I've managed to ignore successfully.

(Please let me know when the cell phone fad is over--I'm still working hard to avoid that one. And no, I'm not Amish.)

[hfojvt]

6. I do not have one

then again, I am known to be a total geek, and was way late to the internets too, used to scoff at it. I don't have a car, microwave, clothes dryer, or cell phone either.

[anti-everything]

7. I don't have one either.

I know we've had our differences (or difference). I'm willing to bury the hatchet.

I refuse to have a myspace page too.

I'm drinking PBR. What are you drinking?

[flvegan]

13. Me too.

I'm having an Amstel Light right now.

It's sad, as I know where there's better beer, I'm just not there now...dammit.

[anti-everything]

20. Amstel is better than PBR,

and there's much better, but I'm opting for cheap right now. $12.99 for a 30 pack, it doesn't get better than that.

[SeattleGirl]

8. You're not alone.

I do have a MySpace page, but most of the people I know don't have one.

[Flaxbee]

9. have absolutely no interest whatsoever in MySpace.

haven't ever even visited the site. But, I also don't have an iPod, so I think I might be an alien or some alternate life form that doesn't really give a crap about fads and gadgets. Have a cell phone, never programmed it or texted or nuthin'. Though, I do loves me my internets (non-myspace internets, that is).

You're not alone.

Mm, nothing interesting. Ginger ale, earlier. Need to go get some fresh grapefruits and vodka so I can make my beloved greyhounds...

[flvegan]

14. Hold on...

I don't have an iPod, either.

No myspace...no iPod...are we freaks?

[Flaxbee]

18. I am afraid so, my friend

:hi:


How's your gorgeous Great Dane doing? He feeling OK?

[flvegan]

21. He's

not doing as well as he could be.

Thanks, though.

[Flaxbee]

61. I'm sorry to hear that...

... give him a hug for me, poor sweet doggie boy. I know you're giving him all the love and care he needs.

[Control-Z]

65. a greyhound sounds good

I haven't had one in about 20 years.

[SPKrazy]

10. I Have one d00d

sorry

i kind of like it

didn't know why the hell i wanted one, but i did

it's fun

:shrug:

[mykpart]

11. I don't have one.

Can't think of any reason I would want one. I don't even look at anyone else's myspace page.

[Karenca]

12. No MySpace for me.

drinking coffee, and it's 2:20 AM :crazy: here.

G'nite, now.

[Omphaloskepsis]

15. Myspace makes my eyes bleed... My ears too..

I do have a few blogs. One for family and one for other things. I host both and Rupert Murdoch knows nothing about them.

edit :: I'm drinking Gin and pink lemonade.

[NMDemDist2]

16. i don't have one, nor do I plan to get one

and water

:hi:

[NNadir]

17. I'm sorry, but you are alone.

I have 832,040 my space pages and most of my friends have more.

I have never met a person with less than 200 pages and frankly I have always considered such people as being well, a little - how can I put this? - "different."

I hope your passport is up to date and that you have established accounts overseas with several different currencies.

May I also suggest psychotherapy and possibly some plastic surgery?

[REP]

19. Why Bother, When There's Here For Drunk Teens?

Iced Dragon Phoenix Jasmine Pearl tea.

[LeftyMom]

22. Just for you, I'm starting one, and it's going to have one of those pages that play music when you

open them up, and it's going to play Nickelback.

Okay, not really. But then I could keep in touch with my sister. :rofl:

[bridgit]

24. yes, another way to keep in touch...

:thumbsup:

[LeftyMom]

26. It's an injoke

flvegan already knows the story.

My sister and her best friend told me a few weeks ago that I should get a myspace "so we can keep in touch." My sister and I live in the same house. That's the joke- that we need the internet to keep in touch with people just down the hall.

[bridgit]

28. yes as well, i've heard sissy can be a stinker, but in an over arching sense...

another way to keep in touch sissy notwithstanding ;)

[bridgit]

23. you should have a myspace page...

i am able to network with more people that share my specific interests i.e. music, arts, theater & dance, but that's me,

though here as a for instance: http://www.myspace.com/anytimeanyplace

you will be able to see, that the format is highly textural for creative, targeted, motivated interests such as you are known to have;

if not myspace, i therefore suggest you consider such venues as a means of expressing your uniqueness,

they are easy to set-up, and you will be able to express creativity in that regard as well after you get hip to dropping codes into your profile,

drinking? i already drank it :thumbsup:

[RFKHumphreyObama]

25. Nope, don't have one

Most of my friends/relatives don't either

[Kutjara]

27. If I wanted to have a bunch of maladjusted adolescents...

...ridicule and abuse me for no reason, I'd hang out with my friends more. As for myspace, I just don't need the aggravation.

[jakefrep]

29. You're not the only one...

...I don't have a myspace page. I don't think I've ever had the occasion to visit myspace.

[bertha katzenengel]

30. Don't have one, don't want one, don't need one.

:shrug:

:hi:

[Qanisqineq]

31. nope, never

well, I had one for a couple days but that was to contact a woman with a MySpace page. A page featuring pictures of her and my husband kissing and details of their sex life.

I hate MySpace.

(This was 5 weeks ago and I'm still quite bitter. Ok, very bitter.)

[hippywife]

32. Not alone.

Don't have one or see the need to ever have one. :hi:

Edit to add: No Ipod, either. I have now reached the age where I'm content to let technology pass me on by. I've often wondered when that was going to happen.

[ChaoticSilly]

33. I know how you feel

I don't have one either. And I think I'm the only person who doesn't have a cell phone either.

[Arkansas Granny]

82. I don't have a cell phone, have never had one and don't want one.

[wildhorses]

34. you are NOT missing a thing--i have one and i don't think its

all that :donut:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M3aT_aEQrmQ

Ridin the Storm Out
Ridin' the storm out, waitin' for the thaw out
On a full moon night in the Rocky Mountain winter.
My wine bottle's low, watching for the snow
I've been thinking lately of what I'm missing in the city.
AND I'M NOT MISSING A THING
Watchin' the full moon crossing the range
Ridin' the storm out
Ridin' the storm out.

My lady's beside me, she's there to guide me.
She says that alone we've finally found home.
The wind outside is frightening,
but it's kinder than the lightning life in the city.
It's a hard life to live but it gives back what you give.

[Shine]

35. You are not alone.

I have no desire to jump on the myspace bandwagon to have my personal worth "validated" by getting as many "friends" as I can. I am blessed to have enough real friends in my real life, thank you very much.
:hi:

[AlCzervik]

36. i don't have one either and i don't want one.

i'm not even sure how it works to tell you the truth and half the time when i look at any of them my eyes start to hurt from all the stuff on the page.

[VelmaD]

37. don't have one...

don't want one
won't get one

You are not alone.

[skygazer]

38. I have one because it's the only venue I have to keep in touch with certain people

Some friends from work, a couple of people back east, that sort of thing. The site itself is a pain in the ass and I rarely visit it but it's like anything else - some people find it fun, others don't.

I'll think no less of you for not having a page, how's that? ;)

[enigmatic]

39. I have one, and so does the station

We should have gotten one long ago; I think myspace is great.

[petronius]

40. I don't have one, and I have no intention of ever having one... (nt)

[Blue-Jay]

41. Don't have one. Not interested.

[YankeyMCC]

42. I don't have one either

My wife had one - it got hacked and I don't know if she still uses it now.

I've no desire to have one, not that I look down on people who have it I just don't have time...the amount of time I have for Internet socializing is pretty much taken up here on DU.

[TheBaldyMan]

43. I am boycotting MySpace because it's owned by Rupert Murdoch

anything to do with the 'dirty digger' is off limits for me. That includes the Simpsons :(

I may not be the richest man on the planet but I try my damnedest to keep my pittance out of the pockets of News Corp International.

Try an alternative MySpace clone site if you must get a page.

[cwydro]

44. Nope

I don't have one. Wouldn't have a clue how to even go about it.

[I Have A Dream]

45. I don't have one, and I have no plans to ever create one. n/t

[fortyfeetunder]

46. my who?

Never want one, besides it would complicate my life...

[Giant Robot]

47. Too lazy to have one

Nope not alone.

[chaska]

48. I had one. Couldn't figure out why I was there, so I left.

[NC_Nurse]

49. I don't have one and don't plan to have one.

[hippiechick]

50. I only have one so I can keep tabs on HippieKid's page ...

:hide:

[Left Is Write]

58. Actually, that's why I started mine. To keep an eye on my kid.

[femmocrat]

51. I don't have one, don't want one, and don't plan to visit anyone's!

I've gotten this far in life without one, so why start now? LOL

[YellowRubberDuckie]

52. Holy crap...

You don't need a myspace dude. It's nice to keep up with old friends and post pictures and blogs or whatnot, but if you don't care about those things, or have other ways of doing them, then don't worry about having a my space.
As for what I'm drinking tonight, I've tried to drink ALL weekend, but apparently people in Dallas don't have a freaking clue about Rum. It's highly annoying.
And I swear to God, if I get offered a newsletter about Kennedy again I'm going to punch someone out.
Duckie

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

53. I don't have a myspace page.

And I don't plan on getting one. Don't know what I'd put on it and nobody would look at it anyhow.

You are not alone.

I do have an iPod, though.

[xchrom]

54. me! me! me! -- i don't -- but i don't know how to work a computer, either.

i can't even download a video player so i can look at vids.

sigh:eyes:

[terrya]

55. I have one, but it's boring as hell.

[SmileyBoy]

56. I don't have one.

And I'm thankful for it.

[Blue-Jay]

57. Are you alone right now?

[GoddessOfGuinness]

59. I tried to start one; but

I found I just don't have the time to mess with it. I think I can live without it. :toast:

[blondeatlast]

60. You're in stellar company, actually, 'casue neither do I, nor will I ever. nt

[FuzzySlippers]

62. I don't have a "myspace" page,

but then I'm a complete loser who couldn't even make "myspace" friends.

[last_texas_dem]

63. You're not alone

(Well, I'm guessing you kinda already figured that out from reading all the posts agreeing with you before mine!) I don't have a MySpace and will likely never get one. It's not that I'm totally against the concept of keeping a webpage with personal stuff about yourself, your life, etc. I have a LiveJournal, though I rarely update it anymore. But something about MySpace just annoys me; in general, so many of them are way too "busy" in terms of all the different junk and things going on on the screen, and the whole deal with all the multiple "friends" on there that people have who they may not even know in real life annoys me. Plus, I'm kind of a contrarian (I hope I'm using that word correctly) and often have a tendency to stay away from things that seem too popular and that "everyone" feels like they just have to have.

[Evoman]

64. I started one about 8 months ago, and have never been back to it.

I guess I just "don't get it".

[Control-Z]

66. Well, I do have one but

I have no friends and plan to keep it that way. I confess, the only reason I have one is to keep tabs on my kids. Bad mommy, I know.

I also have a fully programmed cell phone. In fact, I'm posting from it now.

I'm drinking a rockstar. That about covers it, I think.

[shanine]

67. I don't have one either n/t

[KatyaR]

68. I don't have one and don't want one.

I have a blog, though, but I blog for me, not anyone else. I could care less if anyone reads it or not.

Don't sweat it--it's not that big a deal.

[u4ic]

69. Don't have one, don't want one

:hi:

[otherlander]

70. I've got you beat: Not only am I

another human WITHOUT a myspace page, I'm... *dramatic pause* A HIGH SCHOOl STUDENT WITHOUT A MYSPACE PAGE!!!
:wow:

[mcscajun]

71. I have never had, nor ever will have, a "MySpace" page.

It's just too "after my time". :)

[MissMillie]

72. I do not have a MySpace page

and I have no desire to have a MySpace page.

[qnr]

73. I have absolutely no desire to have a myspace page.

Anyway, I'm not much of a "friend" type. I'm almost 50, I've lived on (or been on) all seven continents, and I only have 2 friends. I think myspace cheapens the word remarkably.

Edit: coffee and sambuca

[edbermac]

74. Don't have one; don't have a cell phone either...

:shrug:

[Arkansas Granny]

81. Me neither. According to my kids, I am the last person in the U.S.

who doesn't have a cell phone and doesn't want one. I can now tell them that they are wrong. I am not alone.

[Dervill Crow]

75. I have one, and it's kind of fun.

Most of my myspace friends are DUers.

I didn't realize myspace was owned by Rupert Murdoch. This is actually the third myspace page that I've created; did it twice before and almost immediately thought, "This is really stupid," and deleted them.

[youthere]

76. I don't have one..but then, I'm a humongous geek.

[LynneSin]

77. I'd rather have root canal without anesthesia than have a myspace site

Sorry, I hear too many stories of creeps using myspace to pickup underage kids. Just not for me

[Hugin]

79. And the creepiest dude associated with myspace is...

Rupert Murdoch.

:scared:

[LSK]

78. no myspace here either

[azmouse]

80. I've never even visited Myspace.

No interest in it whatsoever.
