Another Reason to Hate Myspace
From BBC.com
“The website (myspace) was bought by Rupert Murdoch's News Corp for $580m last July after it proved to be a huge success with youth audiences online.”
Thank Christ I use blogger. I couldn’t live with myself if my online journal was part of Rupert Murdoch’s evil machine. For those of you who don’t know, Rupert Murdoch owns the Republican propaganda outlet know as Foxnews. He then has the audacity to, in a truly Orwellian twist, call it a “Fair and Balanced” news source.
Anyway, the blind squirrel finally found a nut last night. That’s right, our hockey team won it’s first game after losing something like 7 games. We won 6-3, and I had two goals. I played better than I have all summer, must have been the new stick I bought on Saturday.
There was also some sort of bike rally or ride going on in Peoria this weekend. It always cracks me up seeing all the middle aged dudes with goatees and huge sunglasses on expensive choppers who are trying to be cool and badass. I’m sure today they’re telling all their buddies at the water cooler how they were blasting around the mean streets of Peoria on their hog. Granted, there are some cool bad motherfuckers who still ride bikes, the whole thing has become so passé and commercialized with “American Chopper” though. If you think those guys build cool bikes, you are not cool.
It’s kind of like tattooing. If you think getting the Japanese symbol for strength tattooed on your shoulder would be sweet, you’re not cool.

What about getting an armband with your son's name on it for your first tattoo? Is that not cool enough to be considered, cool?
Dude, face it, you are a tool no matter if you use MySpace or Blogger or actually didn't have a blog. What, 50% of the gas in the tanks of your cars comes from Exxon Mobil in one way or another and the same with the power that powers your AC in your house. Your mortgage lender is a giant corporation setting rates to take money from you in their favor.
We're all freaking tools dude... I am tool to GM with the Hummer and tomorrow I will head to work (in a (Daimler Chrysler no less)to peddle my soap to the world's Hot Wheels collection and you'll go back to designing camshafts for your Tonka Dump Trucks.
We are all only safe in the womb!!!

Armbands are pretty played out… how about getting an old school heart on your chest (near your heart) with your son’s name. That would be fucking cool. But remember, bigger is better, you’ve got a lot of white skin and a small tattoo wouldn’t look right. You’d get big respect, even from tattoo people, with a tattoo like that.
