myspace is good for the ego

Every now and then someone finds me on myspace and sends me a message only good for stroking my ego. I recieved one such message today, in fact:

Awww you moved to New Zealand....that saddens me. i had like a huge crush on you in high school. hope all is well.-M.P.

Pretty nice, right? Just a short message to let me know he cared, even if we hadn't talked since sophmore year when he told everyone that I was in love with him. Which wasn't true, I just had a crush on him but was afraid because he was a "bad boy". Later he found Jesus and now appears to be in the marines.

However nice that is, the best one I got was this:

maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaadgieee!!! (ive forgotten the exact spelling of ur name (so ill just spell it like my sisters name) ) what ever happened to u after highschool? i wanted to go out with u soooooo bad. in fact i remeber one time u asked me if i liked u and i got really nervous and scared (i had no idea why u were asking(i know, idiot) so i said no, or something. i wanted u so bad... i mean wanted to go out with u :) (im drunk) ........ i miss u, u gotta come into houston sometime im in town

Oh, those happy golden years...

Yesterday I overheard this conversation in the dishroom at my new job:

"Hey mate, watcha lookin' for?"

"I'm just lookin' for a little knifie to cut this orange with."

"How about this?"(Holds up a spoon)

"Mate, that's not a knifie, that's a spoonie."

"Ohhh, I see you've played knifie spoonie before!"

(Both fall into a laughing hysteria)
