The MySpace Feature that Tells the Sender When You've Read Their E-mail

I'm not hating on the MySpace feature that tells the sender when you've read their e-mail, because there's really no reason to hate that at all.

First of all, when I've sent a random hot girl a message, I love knowing that she has definitely, unquestionably read the message that I poured my heart into, and that she has decided it was not worth the time to reply. Very cool, MySpace. Frankly, I wish there was also a way for you to show me when messages are forwarded, so I can know that she and her friends are yukking it up because I thought we'd make good friends since we both liked "Amelie."

On the flip side, whenever that annoying dude shoots me an e-mail about how cool high school used to be, I love that I have to respond or risk getting another e-mail two days later, asking what's wrong. I love having to decide between him thinking I like him and him knowing I hate him. That's a real win-win. Thanks, MySpace.

And really, why is it the people that want to reminisce the most about high school are the people whose lives have stayed the most similar?

Nevermind, Tom. That's a post for another day. Besides, how could you possibly have any expertise when it comes to people that are way too obsessed with how many friends they have, surround themselves with teenage girls, and have shitty haircuts? That was silly of me. I apologize.

I'm not hating on the MySpace feature that tells the sender when you've read their e-mail, I'm just saying.
