I’m Just Sayin’

oh, myspace! you may have gotten a face lift to make things taut and streamlined. but when you are ugly at the core, no amount of lifting and tucking will help (a la joan rivers).

i myself broke up with myspace on january 30th - however i am still required to enter this black hole of social networks for work.

so anyway, i found a site error that i attempted to report and here’s what happened:

okay, so far so good. i click submit.

i click to email customer service.

i get an error while trying to report an error. seriously…

so i backtrack and try again. this time i don’t get the error, i get this little nugget:

*barf. tom, get over yourself.

i fill in the details of the problem (which are related to a broken link) and click submit.

you can imagine my surprise when i received a response to my problem only one hour later…

Hello,
Adding color, graphics, and sound to your profile page is easy and requires only a basic knowledge of HTML (the programming language used to create web pages on the Internet). Simply go to “Edit Profile” and enter the desired HTML coding where appropriate. If you do not know HTML, you can reach out and make a new friend by asking someone who has color, graphics, and/or sound on their Profile page how they did it. You can also click on the graphics link from a friends’ profile to select from hundreds of background HTML.  People on MySpace are friendly and always willing to help, so just ask! This is a great way to meet new people!

Thank you for contacting MySpace.com.
