All my friends live in the box on my desk.
Friendships on the internet can be strange.
You meet people on MySpace, Facebook, or other social networking sites. I have pages EVERYWHERE. Most of which I check next to never.
Message boards can be fun. Reading the comments on Fark is always an entertaining activity online.
I have managed to actually make friends on the internet. I mean with people who, if they really are what they seem, I would be fantastic friends with in real life if I ever got out of the house (just kidding, a girl needs to go to Target once in a while).
But, what happens when you make friends with some one who is disliked by your friends? Even on the internet it can be tricky but I use the same rule on the internet as I do in real life. If it ain't my battle, I am staying the fuck out of it.
So what if one friend thinks the other is a nosy bitch. So what if the nosy bitch friend was right. She was just sticking up for her friend (who, at times, needs to be taken down a peg). I stayed out of that fight, knowing both of my friends can take care of themselves.
This shit is way to much like high school. If it wasn't for the fact that I have very few friends outside of my computer, I would leave most of my social networking site. The fact of the matter is that I truly love the friends that live inside my computer. I just wish they could come out an play.
Okay so, maybe I should explain more but I won't. I like the vaguarity of it all. And the anonymity. FSM bless the interwebs.
