[quote name='Mr. Anderson']Yeah, I've heard plenty. Don't like it. I could care less about your musical preference, I was just demonstrating how you can apply what you said to just about anything anybody likes at any given time. And before you (poorly) try to insult me, take a look at my avatar. I'm no emo jackoff; check yo'self before you wreck yo'self.

Oh hush now; they're the underground of the underground. Nobody's ever played electric guitar until them. They also invented the drums...and the flute (though they deny it).
Rozz is the kind of person who, alas, when I harken back to my youth, makes me think of those poor childrens who want to engage in a game of "lesser-known-band-syndrome" with you, but somehow think that "Metal Edge" magazine was the bottom floor of the underground. I don't take pride in being a pretentious asshole of a teenager, but I don't deny it either.
I also don't make the assumption that nobody's heard of a band before. In the internet age, dissemination of information is far too easy to make that false assumption. Back in the tape-trading days? Sure, it would be easy to say "oh, I bet you've never heard this latest band with the prefix "Dis" and nicer dreadlocks than guitar playing skills." Today? Sheeeeit, even iTunes has the entire Sound Pollution catalog available.
At any rate, I use MySpace to keep in contact with long-lost friends; I can weather the attacks about it, given that those who refuse to use it are easily the same kind of people who don't like (fill in the blank) because it is popular; that is, those who define themselves not by what they are, but what they are not. Lamers, man.
ing lamers.
At any rate, MySpace is fantastic as a *supplement* to your social life; once it becomes the *substitute* for your social life, then you're in trouble. I know plenty of
ers who have had that happen to them.
My biggest problem with MySpace? Glitter pictures in the comments page. I want to shove a Buick up the ass of the person who invented those.
Some pisspoor drawing of a sparkly big-booty trizz-amp with the message "just stopping by to say hello" is just bad. Badbadbad.
