“Do I know you from somewhere?”
The website myspace has added new meaning to this question.
Alright so you are a casual myspace user. Someone adds you to their friends list every once in a while. You post bulletins answering questions about yourself, your likes and dislikes. You post silly comments to your friends and to people you hardly know. You like reading image comments that people put up about you and sending messages to other people to ask them questions or get to know them. It’s all good.
Lately though, on 3 or 4 occassions, while out in public, I have either been spotted by people or met people the I don’t know…other than myspace. Some of the people I’ve talked to, others have simply spotted me. *wink wink*
So what do you do when this occassion comes up? When you run into someone that you’ve don’t know, yet you think you do…do you ask them the question…”Do I know you from somewhere?”…or do you chicken out???
Well it adds an interesting twist to our daily lives I must say. Maybe not for those of you who’s buddy lists consist of people that are all from Cali, when you live in NJ, but for those of you that have alot of “unkown” friends from within your own state, well it’s kind of interesting.
I must admit, it is kind of weird to run into someone like that at first, but it’s really not that bad. Hell if you go to one of these “MySpace Parties” I’m sure you’ll get over that kind of fear really quick.
And no matter what anyone says, everyone I’ve met from MySpace in real life is normal. This website isn’t only populated by “creeps and freaks”. Nice people too, I might add.
So the next time you are out at the mall, on vacation, or going for a walk around your own neighborhood, ask yourself this…what will you do if you run into a fellow myspacer in person for the first time???
I say, just have fun with it.
Yeast!
