If Myspace was my girlfriend?

Myspace, your lips have been places I find disgusting... so no...

Quote:
2.) Would you hold me?
At arms length, maybe.


Quote:
3.) Would you take me places?
Myspace... is there anyone you haven't done? Uhh... I mean, anywhere you haven't been?

Quote:
4.) Would you love me?
Like a crack addict loves his pipe...

Quote:
6.) Would you lie to me?
Only when you ask if I really love you and if you ask if your arse looks big in those pants.

Quote:
7.) If I was sick what would you do?
Myspace... you are sick.

Quote:
9.) Would you leave me for one of my friends?
I've seen your friends list, so uhh... no.

Quote:
10.) Want to have a future with me?
There is nothing scarier than the thought that Myspace represents the future.

Quote:
11.) Would you listen to all my problems and help me solve them?
Sure, deregister your domain and never come back. Were you to go, I'm sure a thousand copycat sites would spring up to replace you though.

Quote:
12.) Would you introduce me to your mom/dad?
To my mom? No. To my dad? Well, he's dead... which means to introduce him to you, you'd need to be dead as well. In other words, yes.

Quote:
13.) Would you care about what I wore when we go out?
I'd never be seen in public with Myspace.

Quote:
14.) Would you hang out with me AND my friends?
The same ones you're worried I'm going to use to cheat on you? No... same deal. I've seen your friend's list. No.

Quote:
15.) If your friend tried to get with me what would you do?
Bit obsessive over this one aren't we? First you're worried I'm going to hit on your friends, then you want me to hang with your friends and now you're worried one of your friends in going to hit on me? Well... again, I've seen your friends list and it's starting to make sense.

Quote:
16.) If me and one of your friends argued, whose side would you be on?
Neither. How could I ever choose between banality and inanity?

Quote:
17.) Would you give me your myspace password?
Oh... like that is it?

Quote:
18.) If I gave you mine would you read all my mail?
So now I see why you wanted my password.

Quote:
19.) If I said I loved you would you say it back?
Myspace: "I love you"
Me: "Yes, you love me"

Quote:
20.) How good do i look from 1-10?
What's the square of a negative number? Yeah... that's about how I'd rate you.

Quote:
21.) How do you feel about me?
Like whatever a terminally ill person feels about whatever is killing them.

Quote:
22.) Have i ever made you smile?
Well... yes... but that was more a deep-seated mammalian fear reflex rather than anything to do with happiness.

Quote:
23.) Want to spend the night with me?
As much as I want to stick my arm in a tree mulcher.

Quote:
24.) Would we just chill together?
Like... as in the morgue and I've come to inspect your lifeless corpse? Sure!

Quote:
25.) If you had an empty house would you call me to come over?
Once again... friend's list = no

I take no offense but it's unfortunatley true. I work a full time job but @ least now I'm labeling the Myspace ones so that no one is by their brain hurting anymore, they expect it!

Careful, Sal; the square of a negative number is always positive!

Good answers, Sal.

The list reminds me of of the kinds of questions teenaged drama queens would have on their minds. Partly, that's understandable, but mostly, it's just a sign of inexperience and insecurity.

I was myself the recipient of many of these kinds of Qs from my first ex-fiancee when I was 22.
Dodged a bullet there - as did she!

Ummm... not exactly. It's an imaginary number, one that doesn't really exist (as such). I felt that was appropriate

Questionnaires? Young ladies are now distributing questionnaires to their potential swains?

Whatever happened to just asking a guy for his credit card number?

It's the squareroot of a negative number that is imaginary, not the square.

Note, is this the way "real" young teens (& pre-teens) think about "love"? Kinda sad, really.

Whoops... that's what I meant, I seem to have had my intent thwarted by missing a word. Twice even.

I even went to check the article I linked before making the very first post and I still didn't pick up on the fact that I missed the all important root.

And the reason it's imaginary (that is, nonexistent) is that any number squared will be positive; you therefore can't unsquare (or take the square root of) a negative.
Holy crap, I actually remembered something from math class. Can I have a cookie now?

Those who haven't experienced it probably have some delusions, no doubt drawn from our vast cultural repertoire of Romantic Myths (Love conquers all! Love never dies! Love can happen at first sight! Love means never having to say you're sorry! All he needs is the love of a good woman! Love is destiny; you just have to find The One!)

Even after they've had their hearts broken once or twice, it can take time to dismantle those fairy tales and see the truth (Love hurts! Love scars! Love wounds! And mars!) Some catch on more quickly than others.

So, yes, there are "real" teens and preteens who view love through glurge-splattered glasses (but you knew that from the existence and spread of this piece. That was a rhetorical question, I assume.) However, not all teens, or even preteens, are that naive.
