I prefer Facebook over Myspace because it's cleaner. Although, I do find that sometimes Facebook can be a pain to find the option you're looking for and having to ignore all those apps separately can be a bit cumbersome (there is always the lite option).

How about an "A"?

B_N

I would have chosen the vowel U in that case.
I like buns. Especially sticky icky buns.
Or maybe an O, because I like the 'bons. mmm how I love cinnamon, and cream cheese icing.

however, it seems someone is acting overly upset based on her known controversial stylings. stop acting offended, we know you're not. :p

letting it go now b/c it's not worth any more of my time.

I find "street culture" or "hip-hop culture" to be totally inane and stupid. I call it those things because it's misleading to associate this sort of thing exclusively with black people. There are a lot of black people who get into it, but there are also hispanic, white, and asian people who exhibit the same traits.

I think the best way to reduce racism is to quit referring to words like ?ghetto,? ?barely educated,? ?obnoxious? and ?lower class? as "euphemisms for blackness." I don't think of them that way. There are plenty of people of all races who fit those descriptions. Maybe there are proportionally more black people, but that's not really important.

seriously, race doesn't matter. People born into certain lifestyles are more likely to take that up, and the case tends to be the majority of a ghetto is black.
But that has nothing to do with skin color in the end, just the people.
I've seen a lot of white or mexican slums. The Old West End in Toledo is a Polish area and has a lot of thuggish white people.

Trashy people are found equally in all skin colors, it's a culture not a condition related to a skin color. We just need to move on with the way people refer to that culture as, but that also means people stop expecting talking of thugs or other things to mean a black person. It just means a thug, a piece of shit, trash, and needs no further identifiers of skin color. We need to move past even caring about skin color.
The way someone dresses is a far easier way to identify someone than their skin color. :p

Thats retarded, myspace was just obnoxious with all the stupid shit people would put on their pages. My favorite was when people would do something completely inane like using yellow font on a white background.

You're a racist prick. Fuck off

perhaps you'd like to buy an A?

i'm not sure whether bassbomb said that in jest or not (though obviously subsequent quotes referred to the southpark episode, mine included)

well, myspace IS ghetto looking compared to facebook.

facebook has a much cleaner look than myspace.

usually, non-ghetto places look much cleaner than ghettos.

Maybe someone needs to get over themselves. It was a joke, you didn't like it, move on.
