For as much of my time as it's wasted, MySpace is remarkably educational. I've learned so much since joining MySpace. I've learned, for example, that there are way too many people out there with nothing to do. I've learned that Southern Single Mothers find me attractive. I've learned that while I've never listened to a full album by either The Used or My Chemical Romance I don't want to. That and I'm not exactly sure that they are two different bands... I've learned we have to assemble a task force of elite snipers to take out Paris Hilton, Lindsay Lohan, and Britney Spears, because the number of teen girls who list them as "heroes" is frightening. Seriously, we have no better strong female role models than an amateur porn star, a drunken anorexic, and a pop-turned-trailer diva? I've learned that witty or ironic headlines have reached their saturation point and thinking "Insert witty or ironic headline" is either of those things is just cliche. I've learned that editing the HTML should be a privelege and not a right. And I've learned that nothing pisses me off more than those little streaming videos, and how somehow they can play over my iTunes.

That's about it.
