I enjoy MySpace because I get to meet so many different people from around the world. Everyone is so unique. Everyone is so original. No one is ever the same.

Inserted below is a screen shot of my Top 40. These individuals best exemplify my statement above. Continue being your unconventional, unequaled, and nonconformist selves, guys! :)

People should really pay attention to things like this:

Note: This user disables HTML comments.
Any HTML codes in your comment will be removed.

Read it. Learn it. Don't embarrass yourself with visible HTML coding in your comments which makes everyone think that you're an idiot.

P.S. If you're going to comment on this post, don't go for the obvious joke. That's embarrassing too.

If you look like you're 14 and your age on MySpace is set to "69 years old," that's just wrong. I do not wish to picture anything of the sort. Thank you. Goodbye.

Go watch 7th Heaven or something.

Remember in Chapter One how I wrote about the two girls on my friends list who had the same photo and I didn't know which one was real? It turns out that the one who I thought may have been real has started using a photo of another girl on my friends list! My goodness. This is hilarious to me.

I had this feeling of joy and accomplishment when I caught this, but then it led to a "What now?" situation. Now there's three people in this weird triangle of fakery. Who's who? Who knows?! Who cares?!?!

It's amusing to see people on my list using each other's photos. It makes me wonder if it was pure coincidence that they all added me as their friend, or if they were idiotic enough to go steal one another's photos after seeing them on my MySpace. Uh, HELLO, I can see them too!

I have this overwhelming desire to post the three MySpace profile links up and let everyone judge them, but I'm not that mean, nor do I think anyone really cares. Heck, I don't even care.

You: Then why did you write all of that?
Me: Just to entertain you, I guess.
You: It really wasn't all that entertaining.
Me: I hate you.
You: Yeah, probably. I'm a fake.
Me: What!?
You: I'm not really another person. It's just you pretending to be another person for the sake of having some dialogue here.
Me: Does this mean I hate myself?!
You: Yes.

I will never understand why some people on MySpace pretend to be other people. I guess it's a relatively simple thing to do with no real consequences. If one were to ever get caught red-handed, he/she could simply drop off the face of the world (wide web). And probably create another account posing as someone else, sadly enough.

Perhaps they pose as somebody else because their personal life just isn't exciting enough for them. Maybe they enjoy having two different personas, sort of like a weird reality-meets-virtual-reality-Dr.Jekyll-Mr.Hyde thing. Or it could be that they're twisted and they enjoy lying and deceiving others. No. Wait. I got it. They must be INCREDIBLY UGLY! That's it, isn't it?! You never hear someone pretending to be another person whose face looks like a hybrid of a giraffe and a baboon's ass. Therefore, I have reason to believe that they are extremely hideous and that's why they pretend to be another person who's usually extremely good-looking.

Whatever the case may be, if you are a poser of some sort, please tell me why you do it. I find it very intriguing. (And yes, I do realize that no one will actually come forward because they must always stay in character!)

The first encounter I've ever had with a "fake" (as they're known in Internet culture), was from a person pretending to be a buxom female blonde. I read her "About me" and she called herself some Swedish-sounding name. But when I looked through her pictures, I discovered that one of the photos had another female's name as a caption. I Googled it and it turned out to be the name of a pornstar. (That's a lie, of course. I didn't Google it. I didn't need to. I recognized the name in a split-second because of the copious amounts of pornography that I watch.) I then confronted the person who owned the profile and told her that I knew she wasn't who she claimed to be. She admitted she wasn't the person in the photo and that she was, in fact, a he! He couldn't believe how many guys fell for it. I couldn't either.

As I looked over the comments that had been left from other guys, too many had said that "she" was gorgeous, and for some strange reason, they referred to her as "baby gurl." Surely, all of these horny guys were delusional. There was no way that the curvaceous woman in the photo was an infant.

In any case, it was amazing how many guys were fooled into believing that this gentleman was a scantily-clad woman. People will believe anything on the Internet! (Ahem. I'm not really 45 years old.)

My second involvement with an Internet imposter happened recently as I was looking through my friends list. My eyes stopped on a picture of a girl who looked familiar to me. I clicked on her profile and looked at her pictures. "How intriguing," I thought to myself while my right eyebrow slowly raised. One of the pictures that this girl had was exactly the same profile picture of another girl on my friends list! (How sad is that? Seriously. Why would you add me as a friend if the person who you stole the picture off of is already a friend of mine?! Good lord. THINK, PEOPLE! THINK!)

The problem with this is that I don't personally know these two individuals. How do I know which MySpace friend is the real girl in the photo?! I don't. Which is hilarious to me. Do I question both of them about it? No, because their answers would prove nothing. Of course both of them will tell me that they're the "real" girl. And one of them will no doubt feel betrayed because it would appear as if I don't trust her and had to ask if she really is who she says she is. (Probably one of the best lose-lose situations ever.)

Actually, it'd be even more hilarious if neither girl was actually the girl in the photo. I really hope that's the case because it'd be so sad and pathetic that it would become the greatest thing I've ever witnessed in my life.

Another thing that I find hilarious is when I think of how many people I offended by writing this entry. Who knows how many fakes are out there? And who knows if they take their faking ways too seriously and will actually be outraged by this? I love it.

In conclusion, I will never believe anyone is who they say they are on MySpace. Unless you have videos of yourself to back it up. Then again, it's the 21st Century and with the advent of increasingly cheap and sophisticated computer technology, you could probably pull off your fakeness with a computer-generated person. Argh. I give up. I don't trust anyone on here anymore. Not that I ever did. I mean, come on, it's the Internet. Over time, people will end up becoming completely different than who you thought they were. I've heard and seen it way too many times. Trust no one. It's a cruel, cruel world (wide web).

-The TWK Team



(See what I did there? I just pretended that I have a crew involved with TWK, which I really don't. Unless I just said that to throw you off. Maybe you've never actually spoken to me, and it's been my MySpace assistant all along! Okay, that's a lie. But I have heard stories of people who have assistants to reply to their comments and messages, and they're not even famous! Simply amazing. I will not make fun of these people for being lame, however, but will continue to pretend that everything is fine and dandy. Because I'm fake.)

Current mood:  thankful
Category: Blogging
Hello there. I wanted to say a special thank you to all of my viewers. I don't think I say it enough. Without you all... -Wait. Too cliché.

If it wasn't for all of you... -Stop. Still too cliché.

Just know that I am truly thankful for all of those who have viewed my videos and who have supported me in the past. You people (i.e. weirdos, dorks, morons) made it possible for me to get recognized on YouTube and ultimately, get nominated for Best Commentary in YouTube's first ever Video Awards.

On Monday, March 26, 2007, it was officially announced that I had been honoured with the award because of your votes. Thank you. -I'm not sure how many of you made numerous fake accounts to vote or used a refresher program to help me, but thank you for that as well.

Once again, thank you all for your support. You can expect more videos from me coming your way, and hopefully more often. I'm basically trying to kick TV's ass.

I know I haven't been the best at responding back to messages/comments/e-mails, but I'm trying. Everything means a lot to me. I hope you all know that. I also hope you all know that I'm not 45! Idiots! I hate you all!

Your friend with love,
Tony

Holy crap. What the hell happened?! There has been a sudden explosion of comments and messages on my MySpace. I used to be able to reply to everyone, but now it's difficult thing to do so. Please don't take it personally if I don't respond. All of your comments and messages are appreciated.

I know that there will be at least one person who will get mad at me for not replying back to them. That person is an idiot! There. I said it.
