We are a couple of freaking GENIUSES!

July 22nd, 2006

So, we got a S&S Myspace. We had discussed getting a Myspace before, but I had held out. Mostly because I think Myspace is tacky and ugly. And did I mention borderline retarded? But then I went back to Mississippi for vacation, and apparently everyone on the face of the earth has a Myspace. So I relented. Hey, if it’s good enough for They Might Be Giants and Warren Ellis, I suppose it’s good enough for me.

But it’s still retarded. Unlike the towering intellects of Livejournal.

Anyway, we secured the name we wanted, but the page is still blank. And people are friending a blank page. Wtf? (This is driving Mik batshit.) Then, I’m told that I’m going to have to check every single friend to make sure they aren’t porn, cause Myspace = classy. Which makes it pretty clear to me that I do NOT want all this shit clogging up my private email. Luckily, Mik and I had set up a seperate S&S email awhile back, which was just waiting for us to use it to filter Myspace friend requests. Except neither one of us can remember the password. So, I’m like, Fine. We’ll just answer the password question, no problem. Yeah. There IS a problem, and it’s what us super geniuses had used as the question.

“We have been contributing to the cause of evil since??”

WTF kind of dumbassed question is that? Honestly? I probably set that shit up, cause I used a very similar phrase on a flyer a year later. Except that the answer on the flyer was NOT the answer to the question. That could be anything from the year we were born to the year we met (which is hazy since we “met” like 3-4 times) to some shit like “AWESOMETASTIC” or god knows what else.

Accusations fly. Each accused the other of being the idiot to set up the question before conceeding that we had probably done it together, all the while proclaiming how rad we were.

Do you know what the worst part is? I can’t even do a comic about this, since Tycho and Gabe just did one about the exact same thing. Except in our case, we never did remember what the answer to the question was. We r dum.
