Wow. I am dumbfounded. You mean all of you (that is right, it is not a single person) waited 3 years before you found out a Friendster account is not a measure of a person's charisma? Congratulations! You have just achieved (or is it reached?) Nirvana. No offence (or is it offense? My vocabulary has gone down the drain) to Buddhists, the subject here is not enlightenment but a community-type website.
Then again, if I have injected sarcasm into the paragraph above (I shall leave you GENIUSES to figure out whether I have), am I not a hypocrite? I mean, I knew it all along, but I have an account anyway. You see, I do not use Friendster the way you use Friendster. To me, it is simply a tool for making someone's day (or ruining it, if necessary... mwahaha), or for gauging an individual's personality. It is easy to figure out what kind of person you are reading about from the way s/he displays information about his/herself, as well as the pictures included with the profile.
Even so, I still prefer just talking or messaging someone. So much more personal. I get the niggling feeling that a handful of my peers are going to read this entry and totally vulgar-itise (told you my vocabulary is bad) my tagboard. Just like two years ago. Yeaaaahhh, you remember that huh, you vigilantes for communism. Get an open mind. I have one.
Footnotes: For those that DO have an open mind, please exercise caution when using it. You could be easily identified as a modern day allusion to a WITCH (philosophically, nothing to do with black magic). The sheep that do not know better would burn you on the stakes of their tongues since you do not agree with their way of thinking. Awful, yes?
