some mom is trying to ban myspace.com from the public library in my town.[views:8026][posts:77]___________________________________ [Dec 28,2006 11:14am - Samantha ""] yummy said:haha...so true. It's weird how lots of girls say "I'm not a slut"...well, according to your myspace pics you are. Then they keep the comments of guys saying, "oh I'd hit it". There ya go. My boyfriend has a younger sister, and it's crazy to see the pictures that some of her friends have on their profiles. I've ended up looking at some of them and thinking, "Jesus Christ!! That girl is only 16!!???" Just the fact that I saw the pictures in the first place makes me feel dirty. |
________________________________ [Dec 28,2006 11:21am - yummy ""] It must be an alter ego thing or they just don't have enough confidence(class) to refrain from it. How bout when girls put "oh I look so bad in this pic". Why would you put it on your profile if you hate it. Oh yeah....so everyone can say, "no, no you look good baby". |

We can't cushion the world because parents are too lazy to teach their children how to act right. Wow. Pam and I agree on something. Some parents are too lazy to do the things that are fundamental to being a parent, like paying attention to their kids or acting like loving, supportive parents, which is why their kids are so desperate for attention (and affection) that they post pictures of themselves looking like skanks on myspace. It's not just the girls, either. I've seen quite a few profiles from high school aged boys who have pictures of their abs and such. Thank Paris Hilton for the fact that it's trendy to be a whore now. :pukeface: Thank stupid parents for letting their kids act like whores. It's just like that South Park episode... "Stupid Spoiled Whore Video Playset". Have you seen some of the little girls clothing in stores these days? Strippers can now dress there daughters as there mini me's.They mine as well put a shirt on there child that reads "pediofiles wet dream" . |

After that it was just the media. Tabloids and gossip shows on TV have made it seem that Paris Hilton made it trendy to be a whore, when all they did was pick some random whore that was an easy target to make shitty news about. I swear every tabloid headline now is "Guess what this whore got drunk and did last week!" |
____________________________________________________ [Dec 28,2006 1:37pm - menstrual_sweatpants_disco ""] A few years ago in the mall around xmas time I remember seeing a group of 10 year olds dressed up like hookers. I couldn't help but think they have shitty parents. Then all I could think about is that some guy is going to see one of these whores walking down the street and rape and kill her. Then her family would be all over the news crying and saying "she was just an innocent girl". Jesus, I hope somebody raped and killed her. This isn't a strange reaction or anything right? :spineyes: |
_____________________________________ [Dec 28,2006 1:39pm - Sacreligion ""] in regards to myspace, i have the same gripe with it that i do with text messaging. the world's becoming very personalized, to the point where you rarely actually need to go out and talk to someone to get something done, or simply for the sake of fun and friendship. i hope for the sake of the future of humanity, that the pendulum theory is correct, and kids start playing outside again. |

_____________________________________ [Dec 28,2006 1:43pm - Sacreligion ""] nah...volcanos dude |
____________________________________________________ [Dec 28,2006 1:57pm - menstrual_sweatpants_disco ""] Nuclear volcanos? |
_______________________________________ [Dec 28,2006 2:00pm - Messerschmitt ""] a concentration camp based out of my back yard for all those little myspace whores. yeah, that ought to do it. |
____________________________________________________ [Dec 28,2006 2:10pm - menstrual_sweatpants_disco ""] hahahaha. I wouldn't seriously support that idea. As long as you were the one running the camp. |
_______________________________ [Dec 28,2006 2:13pm - Mess ""] yes i'd be the commanding officer but i'd run it like a brothel camp. i could see it now... |
_____________________________ [Dec 28,2006 2:19pm - pam ""] DeRtOxIa said:wow i actually almost feal really good about my college now. They don't ban anything. Not because they can't or don't feel like it....but because the president of the college is super anti-censorship. They just monitor the library and watch what people are doing. If it starts getting crowded they just kick off the people who aren't doing anything. If it's dead....who cares, do what you want. They figure that since we're paying our bills then we should have full use of the facilities. My school only bans it during busy hours, at night you can use it. |
__________________________________ [Dec 28,2006 2:19pm - Niccolai ""] argue all you want, but there really is no legitimate reason for people to use myspace at a public library. Especially since it could cost the library (and town) money to fix any malware issues that are likely to happen. that and the library would be liable if I met a hot 9 year old girl while she was on myspace there and I tried diddling her, which is even more likely to happen. |

_____________________________________ [Dec 28,2006 2:58pm - KeithMutiny ""] any basis for most of these arguments aren't valid in thise case, because the reason for the petition, as stated on display next to the... 12 or so names signed, is that its because of sexual offenders, nothing more, nothing less. |
_______________________________ [Dec 28,2006 3:03pm - yummy ""] I still think you should do the petition. |
____________________________________________________ [Dec 28,2006 3:09pm - menstrual_sweatpants_disco ""] Are we talking about public libraries or school libraries? I was under the impression that public libraries let you use the internet for whatever. Obviously they'll frown upon porn downloads and such, but I thought it was just there for the public. Is this true? Or are the public library computers supposed be purely for research to be used in conjunction with book-learnin'. Somebody tell me, because I've never used a public library computer. Computers in school/university libraries are different I'd think. I'd imagine it's up to the school. |
__________________________________________ [Dec 28,2006 3:15pm - Dwellingsickness ""] With the exception of a band Myspace for networking,shows, whatever....I think Myspace is pretty gay. I was at a bar the other night and heard one girl say to another,"Well get ahold of me on myspace, it is alot easier"... I about fell outta my chair laughing. |
_____________________________________ [Dec 28,2006 3:17pm - xanonymousx ""] personally i never log on to myspace while im at school i think it is stupid... when im bored i just log on to rttp |
_____________________________ [Dec 28,2006 3:18pm - pam ""] I find myspace extremely useful and convenient. I only have awesome people on mine, so I don't see any of the gayness. I also hate the telephone and won't use it unless I'm forced to so it makes my life easier. |
______________________________ [Dec 28,2006 3:18pm - Yeti ""] as far as i can remember from going to the library in school, there are only certain things that are explicitly forbidden, ie. porn. but in essence the public library computer system, though public, is there for people who dont have access to internet research. technically you could go there and surf the web mindlessly because it is "public" but the understanding is there. at least thats how i look at it. i think myspace should be banned altogether. i had a profile on it for a while, but after the fun of sending my friends funny pictures died down, and myspace reared its ugly head, i decided i'd rather not contribute to the poison of society. |

______________________________ [Dec 28,2006 3:27pm - Lamp ""] I've never had a Myspace at any point in my life. Like I'm so arrogant that I'm going to broadcast my personality to the world, like it apparently matters... |
____________________________________________________ [Dec 28,2006 3:27pm - menstrual_sweatpants_disco ""] Yeti said:the poison of society. haha, that's what myspace should of called itself. |
__________________________________________ [Dec 28,2006 3:27pm - Dwellingsickness ""] I see people wearing "I'd rather be on Myspace" and "You looked better on Myspace" T-shirts all the time, I think that is so fucking stupid. |
_____________________________________ [Dec 28,2006 3:29pm - KeithMutiny ""] im using mine as we speak to get the new cds for the distro that im building, which so happen to be from ebullition... slap a ham, 625 thrashcore, and no idea records. yep, keep an eye out, when i get them in ill make a post here. |
