It will be like one of those old period movies where two lovers have no other correspondence except the postman, the only difference is your sweetie is doing hard time.

Even more convenient for you is the fact the Meet-an-Inmate makes sure to tell you when your inmate’s parole is up.

Now let’s say that even women behind bars want nothing to do with you, no worries, if you can afford an average of 20 to dollars a month you can skip the human aspect of a relationship all together.

Well, why draw another person into your web of lies; just order a relationship, you can buy love with a PayPal account.

With Imaginarygirlfriend you can prove something to yourself with out the burden of guilt that you are lying to another human being.

They supply you with picture of your “girlfriend” that you can Photoshop yourself into, hand written letters sprayed with your “girlfriend”‘s perfume, panties and some even will leave messages on your answering machine.

Long ago misstravel username, before people had Myspace and camera phones, when someone had a qualm with someone else, they were forced to deal with it face to face, or at least through a convoluted web of other people they’ve influenced.

Thanks to the networking power of the internet ruining the life of another person over a minor squabble can be done in the comfort of your own home or in less than five minutes.

They are one of the easiest ways to connect with people, drawing in people from all walks of life, age ranges and beliefs. It’s no wonder that people or “fonts” clash from time to time.

What does leave me bewildered is that fact that some people log off and go to sleep at night angry about what a person they’ve never met and have no personal ties to, said about them on the internet.

Where’s the Beef?

It leaves an even more bitter taste in my mouth when I read about adults acting like catty pre-teen girls and squabble so distastefully and publicly.

In my opinion, there is something wrong with a person that can have actual malice against a figure they’ve complied in their head from a screen name.

If you can’t even be sure what the gender of the person you are e-fighting with is, does it really matter what they say?

Are you really going to drive across the country in a diaper to smack them in the mouth because they pointed out your poor grammar, or made fun of your social standards?

If you’ve answer “yes” to that question, then you not only need to get off of the ‘net, you need to get into a padded room.

When the e-fight stop being entertaining , and let’s face it they always start out pretty good, at the end of the day it’s sad to see two people that could have been friends have so much hatred for each other.

I’m sure everyone is now familiar with the case of the Myspace suicide which involved a young girl being tricked by the parents of another girl into thinking a handsome boy liked her, only to kill herself when the adults controlling the fake account berated and ridiculed her.

It doesn’t take that much effort to dig for embarassing photo of someone as cams malfunction, people make poor choices about what sort of pics to put on Facebook or Myspace, and hell sometimes it “just seemed like a good idea at the time.”
