Thank you, myspace.com for revealing things about my fellow classmates from high school and college that I never wanted to know. Way too much information. Surprisingly enough many of my high school classmates have managed to get married, have kids, and then get divorced in the short 12 years that we’ve been out of high school.
We did things that we swore we wouldn’t do. We tried to not make the same mistakes that our parents made. Yet here we are. My peers are just like any other generation. Divorced and seemingly unhappy about themselves and ranting about it on myspace.com.
Myspace.com is not only a social networking utlity, it’s also a repository for knowing too much information on that aquaintance from high school. Don’t get what I’m saying? Try doing a search for your high school or college. Then narrow it down to your age range. You’ll find some information which you’ll sigh and say to yourself “I wish I didn’t know that…”
I would have signed up, but I’d rather not post that much information about myself (rather posting it here, oh the irony). Plus I’m not so sure I’d want my old classmates getting in touch with me. Most of the time I keep up with the people that I care about, and let the others just stay on the wayside. Nice knowing you. You were rude to me in high school, why would I want to know you now?

Update 12/5/2005:
Myspace.com has also become one of the very few websites that has managed not only to crash my browser, but my whole computer. I was surfing around this morning on the networking site and hit my back button on my browser. Suddenly my computer screen went dark and my computer rebooted. It must be the ability of users to post embeded videos. I’ve surfed around myspace.com and the words “verbal diarrhea” come to mind.
