UN-FRIENDSTER - UPDATED
I still am thinking about my exposure trip post, so I just updated this one after being calmed by Nissin Cup noodles and masturbation watching “It Started with a Kiss” on YouTube. ^_^ Hehehe.
Well, out of the blue, I’ve deleted a significant number of so-called ‘friends’ in my Friendster account. As if I have a lot of these so-called ‘friends’ in my account where invitations made out of the blue, too. Retribution, I guess ^_^.
Just to make it clear, for those who’ve added me in their list (especially those who have known me personally), just check your account if my name is not in your list anymore. That explains unwell.
If you want to add me, search my whole name in Friendster. That is, if I have the freakin’ normal mind to do such. Just kidding myself.
I’m so happy that, even though ironic to its advocacy of socializing online, Friendster gave me the opportunity not to make friends with so-called friends for good. So much for bothering.
Ta ta!

What does Friendster basically do?
Correct me if I’m wrong, intrapersonal communication.
1. It forces non-intelligible internet users to create a Yahoo account (most Friendsters use Yahoo, FYI) and never opens inboxes for life. Thank you for teaching them how to click a button on a website.
2. It basically acts as an online version of lost-and-found relatives, classmates, childhood friends, friends, enemies, parents, boyfriends, girlfriends, gay/tomboyfriends, aliens, wannabe celebrities, etc.
3. For good-looking people–a lot will click your pics. For non-good-looking people–you use pics of other people/celebrity/animal etc. You’ll be forced to paste your best photo. If not, you just post a pixelated pic so blemishes on your face will not be noticed.
4. Give-and-take Relationship. It forces Friendster users to create a testimonial so that your addressee will make a testimonial for you.
5. Lazy testimonials include copy-pasted quotes, text-based images, web-generated animated icons/images/
6. It will bombard you with zillions of senseless bulletin board posts which honestly are unreadable and unnoticeable. Worse, content will include Friendster will so-called shut their shitted website so need to chain this post whatever.
7. Friendster Blogs are pathetically stupid. Friendster bloggers are pathetically stupid, too. Pop-ups and ads everywhere, and no one reads it except your friends on your list. So much for the free blog which other blog hosts offer with full customization attached.
8. It will not make you laugh when the Joke for the Day popup blocks your screen.
9. It’ll spam your mail inbox as long as notification to mail is currently activated. That is, if you know how to use your email account.
10. Friendstermaniacs spend more or less 3 hours gazing at their own profile without doing anything. Customization is dreck.
11. Inggitan galore. Just for the sake of bragging you being the friendliest Friendster, you click on someone else’s profile-friendlist then add friends if you find their pic good-looking or familiar to you regardless of that so-called ‘friends’ familiarity of you. Thus, 5 hundred plus friends.
12. You’ll be pissed of if no one viewed your profile, made a testimonial for you in 48 years, etc while the person renting beside you is busy adding/deleting testimonials or confirming friend addition.
13. You’ll be frustrated if you haven’t logged in to your friendster account.
14. If you’re doing a project, you’ll open your Friendster account first before you start your research. Most of the time, 70 percent or more of your online usage will be wasted in Friendster.
15. You’ll be stupefied with stupid color combinations, icons, YouTube videos etc. as part of your non-creativity. And somehow you’ll be satisfied while other people are spitting at your profile looks’ ugliness and millions of downloadtime-swallowing embedded graphics. Screw them.
16. You’ll make a daily/weekly budget for Friendster.
17. You’ll make friends by asking other people’s email. After that, nothing else unless you are of the same school/organization/company, etc
18. You’ll search for Friendster accounts of Starstruck finalists/celebrities etc. and confused with the multiplicity of their profiles. And then you’ll not even bother clicking any of them. Otherwise, you click all of then and ask them to add you. Addict.
19. You’ll be curious if a Pinoyster or an adversarian counterpart, Enemyster, exists.
20. You’ll be curious with other linking sites such as hi5, multiply, myspace, et al. and create more and more accounts.
21. You’ll be pissed off after reading this.
