I hate Myspace, but I know many people who swear by it. Personally, I think it's become an attention whoring contest. Perhaps the largest one in the world.

Well i'm sure when I discover the point of it then i'll be able to pass judgement.

I joined it more on a goof. I rarely post anything on it.
It does seem to be some kind of popularity contest for some.But it has its merits i suppose.

I've stated my reasons for being there a bunch of times...So, I'm just gonna copy/paste this:

I had no reason to join (and considered it to be pretty stupid)...BUT...Sergio let me know that ALL of the people we know that go to our clubs is on MySpace...And, it is a LOT easier to contact everyone through MySpace, all at once, than trying to CALL everyone on the phone to try to find out who's going where, who's riding with whom, who's having a birthday party, what time everyone's going, who's going where after the club and what time, etcetera, etcetera....Sooo, that's why I'M at Myspace...

I currently have 69 people on my 'friend's list' (which sounds SOOO lame)...And ALL of them are either from the club, from local bands that have members I personally know, OR people from here at HDC

And honestly, I haven't really been keeping up with it very well in the last year, because I haven't been going to the clubs....The last thing I sent was a message in response to one of Sergio's messages wherein he asked if we could help him with his latest film because one of his actors didn't show up and he had like 3 hours or something to shoot it.....He also sent me an invitation to go to the pre-release party this Sunday, So, I called him and told him I can't go cuz I gotta baby:)...But, Seri is gonna be there...

See how much easier it was for him to just send the invitations to all of us at one time, rather than have to call everyone?...It's just a matter of convenience and fast communication for some of us...


OH...But...I think some people are there just to hook up or make new friends to hang out with or something...

I guess the only thing I've found it useful for is it makes it easier for people I haven't been in contact with for a while to find me. I never use the blogs and I can't stand the horror groups there (not the posting, the way the forums are set up.) I also get spams from people looking to get as many possible friends on it as possible. Their emails are worth a laugh sometimes: eg. "Hey there! I was checking out your pics, and I think your hot! (note: I have no actual pics of myself, mostly horror movie kill scenes) Would you like to chat?"

Then again, there seem to be millions who enjoy it, so to each their own.

Yes, but I really don't like the way they're set up. Plus, once you join one, you get about 3 pms a week trying to get you to join another.

I like the way HDC is set up. Simple & made for discussion.

I joined back when they first started the site(I think)...I've been on there for quite awhile anyway. And I still go on there because it gives me something to do. And I've met a few interesting people there, one in particular that I'm REALLY glad I met and would have never met if I hadn't joined the site and added him as a friend.

I'm on it. Don't really know why though. Cuz my friends on there, I can always e mail or offline. I am kind of addicted to blogging though. So that's what I do there. That & well delete any morons that add me to their friends lists.

... not a fan but 60 odd million people use it ...

... feel free to add to "friends" ... http://www.myspace.com/ispitonyourmovie

... Amalthea if you want something to use as a homepage tagworld.com (http://tagworld.com) is better, but if your into collecting "Freinds" then Myspace is the best thing for that.

I with the rest of you. I don't know why I have an account. I write in my blog to get things off my chest, although I could just use Microsoft Word. Anyway, I don't go there very often.

My music is pretty cool, though. It's Nina Simone singing, "I Put a Spell on You."

I've had an account for over a year now, and haven't made one blog...maybe I should look into that. I'm hardly ever on there though, the only reason I've been this week is so I can torture myself I guess.

Umm no. That is SO not what that song is umm... well those aren't the lyrics to that song. No. No. That is offensive to Nina Simone. You could have said Marylin Manson and been less offensive.

However, I still think you're great, and I still adore you.:)

tachii- check out queen_of_swords :D We can...do whatever it is that you do on myspace. You can read my whining. Nobody whines like me. I'm a professional.:D

I've found some cool music on myspace like Lady Sovereign.

i've been reading off and on for some years
still not as learned as i'd like
any recommended reading

Not really, to be honest. The best thing to do is find a deck that you really really like and practice. Practice on yourself (despite what the upity dipshits in many books tell you). Practice on your friends, parents (if they don't mind). Eventually you will come to a point where you know whether the reading turned out well or whether you need to do it again.

I've been reading Tarot for 12 years now. I just practiced. I did it over and over and over etc again and again etc.

If you want you can PM me about this an we can bounce ideas around. You can also tell me what deck you use.

I have a lot of decks, mainly because I collect them. My favorites are the Nigel Jackson Tarot, despite it's Christian overtones, The Tarot of the Old Path because it's totally Pagan, and the artwork is incredible, the Enchancted Tarot, and the oldie but goodie Rider Waite and it's remodeled version, The Universal Waite. The Thoth Deck rocks, but you really have to understand arcane symbolism to get into it, not to mention a basic understanding of Aleister Crowley. The Cosmic Tarot is another lovely deck. It's easy to find, and if you get it, throw away the instruction book... That is, if you know the basic meaning of each card. I do, but it's taken me a long time.

I'll be glad to help you out. :)

You never come between a woman and her shoes.

That's all the Wicked Witch of the West was trying to say. Some bitch come along and steal my shoes, I'mma go after her ass too, especially if they're my platforms, which I'm not supposed to wear because I have tendonitis in my left ankle, but fuck it.
