Just click “ignore” - chances are they’ll never remember even asking you. Seriously.

You know, more than half the friends requests I get on myspace are total spam anyway. I cannot tell you how many half naked busty young co-eds have invited me to be their friend on myspace. Seriously, either there is some major spam action going on, or I would be one super stud if I were a breeder… er, I mean muggle… er, uh… hetero!
I just hit deny on most of them, which I don’t think sends them anything, it just takes your name of their pending friend list, don’t it? right?
I suppose there are at least 5 people on my friends list that I don’t see frequently or haven’t seen in a long time, but I would still consider myself friends with them and don’t mind them being associated with me or knowing what’s going on in my life.

There is a whole other class of people made up of folks I chatted with online that I wanted to see more pictures of but their myspace was private, so I had to add them as a fiend to see their pictures (and have forgotten to delete them since).

Yeah, what Britt said. If for some reason they do remember it later, just say, “Oh, I must have thought you were a spammer.”

dammit, this had never happened to me until today. some guy i run into at the local beer emporium. fortunately i don’t do bulletins or blog or anything so i’m quite comfy adding him as a friend. i mean, i have the rock as a friend so why the hell not?

I find it hard to turn down anyone who requests me as a friend on MySpace. Well, if I really do know them, that is. But I don’t actually post anything terribly personal on my MySpace either, so it’s a small dilemma.

You could always accept them now and then delete them in a couple of weeks. If they’re like most people on MySpace they probably have so many ‘friends’ that they won’t know when you disappear.

I add them if i know them or have something a lot in common with them (like fellow soapers) but generally, I don’t update much on Myspace (that’s what I have a blog for) so it doesn’t make that much of a difference. If I decide they are no longer applicable, I delete them.

Miss Britt - Are you saying I’m forgettable? *bats eyes*

Lee - Well I’m not talking about all the spammers… but I’ve been pretty strict about who gets to be added as my friend on myspace. If I don’t know you in person, forget it. Furthermore, if we’re not really friends, I don’t think you should be there. I want to keep up with people I know, and not have to wade through a dozen bulletins about people I don’t like.

Avitable - I’ve actually made the mistake of denying someone who I REALLY wanted to be friends with because the picture looked like one of those busty blonde bombshell porn friends. (Waves to Jesi)

Hello - “Local Beer Emporium”? Do you mean bar? Man yuins in Pennsylvania tawlk funny. You mean you’re not friends with The Rock?

Bianca - Hiya stranger!!! Miss you around here! My best friend from high school recently deleted me from his myspace. Maybe he thinks I didn’t notice? Bastard.

ginamonster - I guess there’s something to be said for just accepting them and not giving a shit what they read.

Haven’t been around in a bit; and must say I like the new look. I just tell em the truth But everyone uses social networking for different reasons. MySpace (for me) is anyone online who I interact with (cuz it’s more anonymous). But Facebook is more personal and I keep it to peeps who I actually interact with, regularly in the real world. Whenever I’m backed into your situation, I just offer them to join me on MySpace.

Steve - I wondered where you had disappeared to… Really.. I would think myspace was more personal than facebook… but what do I know?

Probably the best thing to do is just press the “Deny” button in the Friend Request folder. I mean, that’s what I do when I see a hot sexy lady wanting to add me as a friend so I can check her out on her webcam over at her website for $9.99 a week…but I’m getting ahead of myself here.

a bar is a bar. i love bars. they have a few nasty draft beers (down with budweiser) and plenty of amazing “spirts” that make me a happy girl.

but a beer emporium is a heavenly place with 45+ beers on draft and 200+ bottles of beer waiting for me in the vast coolers. in addition to simply being happy i actually do the happy girl wiggle.

i might talk funny, but i like my belgium and german beers. yum!

speaking of yum, i’d LOVE to be friends with the rock. if by friends you mean ripping his clothes off and ravishing him.

(p.s. hi, bianca! nice seeing you around.)

hey jester,

i always add these loose acquaintences regardless. if they are really interested in what’s going on in your life then they will leave you comments and messages. if they don’t, well, then they are just making you look much more popular than you really are. hehehe…

Radio Matthew - I thought you liked the hot sexy ladies? No? Huh.

hello - This response is useless without video of the “happy girl wiggle.”

danny - What that would do for my self esteem to discover that all my friends on myspace are fakes….
