A silly little blog for me to drop the excrement of my mind.
-or- spreading like a cancer
Published on March 17, 2006 By BlueDev In Internet
Yes, you heard me correctly. MySpace is a disease.

And not just a benign disease either. This is a serious, aggerssive, pernicious disease. One that seems hell-bent on taking over the internet. In fact, this vile, filthy, perverted disease has risen to be in the top ten sites globally. Yes, top ten English sites in the world. Like a particularly aggressive cancer, it is consuming all in its path.

Why do I call MySpace a disease? Just go over there and start looking at random sites. Aesthetically they make me want to puke and gouge my eyes out with rusty nails in turns. Cluttered beyond belief with no actual content buried in the dross. Abundant grainy photos that look like they were taken by fatally intoxicated, blind donkeys (no opposable thumbs) adorn most sites. Guys who look like they have glued a pair of pubes on their chin to make them look more manly epitomize the word "poser". Girls apparently striving to be the next big Playboy model toss up "glamour" shots of themselves willy-nilly.

But what concerns me the most are supposedly intelligent, bright people who are jumping on the bandwagon. I have seen a couple of prog metal bands that I really respect pimping their MySpace site. I suppose this just exemplifies the axiom that there is no such thing as bad publicity.

Come on though! Did they actually even check out MySpace before they started their sites? Are these the people you want to attract? I suppose publicity is the key, and with the disturbing growth of MySpace they are sure to get that. But there is just something about MySpace that turns my stomach.

Oh, right, that disease thing.

Children are, by design naive and gullible.  Sites such as Myspace need to have systems in place to forcibly protect minors by default.  Assuming the site is owned/run/profited by adults those same adults have a duty of care that goes beyond COPPA to NOT facilitate, aid and abet the social parasites of all kinds/ages [paedophiles being just one].

Eventually that "wonderous" entity that is the Legal system will be utilised in a class-action suit against sites such as Myspace....just as soon as actual harm is occasioned.

Do you know that nothing happens without a reason?


Um . . . huh . . . wrong. Things happen without and for no reason at all every day. It's the name of the game.

And - backing BlueDev up - you're full of shit.

Cheers, wanker.

Maya: You seem to think you know something about me.  You keep making these assumptions that are founded in fiction.  So allow me to set the record straight:

I have a pretty darn good relationship with my mother and father.  It is a healthy, open relationship that we quite enjoy, as it has become a relationship of parent/son as well as one of peer/peer.  We speak pretty regularly, usually at least once a week.  Our busy schedules don't allow for too much more, but we make it a point to communicate often.  So please stop insisting I need to speak to them.  I do.

You also have insisted, on more than one occassion, that I need to utilize my "potential", that I am, in some way, squandering my life.  Well, I think I am doing okay with my "potential".  I could always do better, but I wouldn't say I have squandered it.  Let's see: good scholarship to a good undergraduate college, served a 2 year, full time religious mission to Guatemala, married a wonderful, caring, beautiful woman (going on 9 years now) with whom I am working to raise 3 children of our own, on top of the 14 year old foster daughter we cared for most of last year.  Add to that being accepted to and graduating from one of the top medical schools in the nation, matching in one of the most competitive residencies at an ivy league institution, and trying to be the best father and husband I can be, well, frankly, I don't see too much squandering there.

I don't want to sound like I am bragging.  I certainly didn't do any of this on my own.  I have been blessed by my Father in Heaven every step of the way, as well as having been supported by an amazing family (both parents/siblings and wife/children).  But, to show my appreciation for the blessings I have received, I have tried pretty hard not to waste the potential I have.

Seeing as how you know nothing about me, I would appreciate it if you would stop insisting I have or am wasting my potential.  You are in no position to lecture me on how I should live my life.  That is for those who actually know me.

well the good Doctor has spoken!!. Glad I live in Canada. Are you sure we are not talking Dr Jekell here. Who is full of it. I read some of your all real bullshit about the endocrine system and bla bla bla. As it turns out I am a health care professional and you are as fake as my friend's penis extension. By the way you should contact your bilingual friend. Y si no me comprendes entonces te puedo decir que tu eres un maricon aunque dices que estas casado. I bet your wife does not knows what you are doing if she actually exist. One more thing you are indeed like a defensive aggresive cancer. I sure hope that you are really licensed to care for people. No wander good old USA is begining to be the laughing joke of the world. Or maybe it is true what they said USA is a land of opportunity where any payazo charlatan is put in charge of taking care of humans. How is that for being a riot!!

holla idiota eres tu el marido de Blue Jay? Me parece que tu cara tiene una sana de porqueria. Tew deberias cambiar tu nombre de San Chonino te deberias cambiarlo a San Cochino porque los cuecos son muy cochinos y eso creo que eres. Y si no eres un cueco entonces eres un perverto.

it's just something you don't understand.

You don't even understand your own incoherent ramblings. Learn to read in context, and learn that you can't even begin to fathom what I do or do not know based on a single, random blog entry.


whatever pal...you call it a cancer, i disagree...so you attack me like a lil brat?

have a nice day:)

"holla stupid you are the your husband of Blue Jay? It seems to me that your face has one healthy one of porqueria. Tew deberias to change your name of San Chonino deberias to change it San Cochino because the cuecos are very dirty and that I believe that you are. And if you are not then cueco you are perverto."

Are these the people you want to attract?


so, the internet should be reserved for a certain 'class' of people?

Maya: I have tolerated you far longer than I ever should have in the first place.  You are no longer welcome here.

Um, no. It's called "I think I know spanish but I mostly don't know anything".

Maya: BlueDev is my brother. And my best friend. And you're an assclown. Lárgate con mucha prisa. Asshat.

(Translation for our english-loving friends: Get the hell outta here.)

On an unrelated note: I was playing Orchid really loud, and mom walked in. You should've seen the look on her face - worth a thousand bucks. I'm not kidding. Splendid!
