Why do so many myspace people I don't know want to be my "friend"?

[pRON aHOLIC]

I have never signed up or agreed to be anyone's myspace friend yet I receive daily invites from people I never heard of. Why is that? Is it my good looking ankles? My huge goiter?













I made up the thing about the huge goiter, it's not that big ;-)

They are concerned about your health, and wish to sell you iodine.

There are legions of MySpace "friend" whores out there. Trying to get famous.

Is there a competing site with a feature to list one's ENEMIES? That's MY Kind of site. (probably mideast-based?)

You can edit your preferences to block the un-solicited friend requests. It helps.

Most of them are porn site spammers...
At least mine are.

The rest I ignore.


I checked out MySpace so I could answer some school admin folks questions about it....and cruise for college girls, of course...
Turned out to be not that useful.

They have treats for you.
