On the other hand, there is no Failblog site for MySpace. Is that because there is less fail… or because the sheer quantity would eat up too much of Failblog’s server?
Hey, thanks for informing us all that this isn’t a real screenshot of Tom joining Facebook and real conversations between him and Mark. We all believed it to be real until you so kindly clarified. What would we all do without you.
Nowai! Dude, did you think these and the historic fails are supposed to be real? IT’S A SPOOF.
And gay is an insufficient adjective. Please, buy a dictionary, increase your vocabulary. Inanimate objects and internet sites do not have gender preferences.
You do know that ‘gay’ really means happy, right? So why does it have to have a gender? Queer people just call themselves gay to let the rest of the world know they are happy, and so it just became the norm, but gay means happy, not queer. (just for trivial thought)
Listen, LightninLew, I understand. I can’t say I’ve been through what you’re going through, but I can only imagine how hard it must be. Congratulations on resolving to get in touch with your true self.
If you need someone to talk to as you go through the sometimes-painful, sometimes-liberating process of coming out of the closet, The Trevor Project can help.
I’m not sure that a random comment on Failbook is the best place to start, but I get that sometimes you need to test the waters before revealing yourself to the people most important in your life. Best of luck on continuing your journey toward authenticity and a healthy sexuality.
At least myspace didn’t change its privacy standards 6000 times, so that sometimes somethings are private, that you never knew were private before. At least myspace didn’t share your information as freely as facebook is.
Have we all forgot our roots? It basically started on myspace.
Facebook used to be something that ONLY college students could join. In fact, you had to have a college email address.
I have always hated facebook. I don’t know why everyone hated myspace so much.
Everyone hates myspace because its full of pretentious nob jockeys who think they are all “musically gifted” whilst FB has become so popular due to its unsophisticated lack of class….everyone enjoys mocking trailer trash!
grumpy much? Thanks for ruining my laugh. I had a myspace, then I found facebook. MySpace was famous for roping teens into sharing too much information. Facebook tried to get around that by needing a college to access it, meaning it was free of gullible teens. I noticed in a few short months after maintaining both pages that the lowlifes I knew used MySpace, and the people who I actually cared about and were less drama to communicate with were using Facbook. I didn’t hate MySpace, as it was the first I used, but I’ve come to hate it since it turned into glitter mania.
“At least myspace didn’t share your information as freely as facebook is.”
O.o weren’t you the one who agreed to let them do that?
They do have pop-ups that allow you to deny or accept whether your information is shared or not.
Not always. There have been many cases where they’ve “changed” how privacy settings are set, and the default is more open than what you had selected before.
They’ve also taken away restrictions… there’s stuff you used to be able to block from everyone (like friend requests) and you can’t anymore.
Privacy? How does voluntarily offering personal information to the interwebs and agreeing blindly to their terms show value for privacy?
You want to know why you don’t know if your information is private or not? you indiscriminately posted it online and didn’t pay attention as how to keep it private. Not Facebook’s fault for you being, well, you.
I get the sarcasm ^ but what is the point of even trying to correct someone’s grammar when this is the internet? Usually people type lazier because there really is no point in using good grammar and punctuation when you can get your point across by typing the easier way. Also, when you try to correct everyone’s grammar you come off as pretentious prick
Grammar, even online, is important. Your statements are clearer and easier to read, it creates a good impression, and it shows respect to the other party that you were willing to take the type to type out an intelligent response.
I don’t dialogue with anyone that isn’t willing to type out three extra keys instead of one. It’s lazy and makes you sound like a retard. I can’t take you seriously as a supposedly intelligent person if you can’t even figure out how to use the English language, and what’s the point of arguing with stupid people?
Lol, “and it shows respect to the other party that you were willing to take the type to type out an intelligent response.”
The type to type, hillarious only because of the point you were trying to make
Is it sad that I saw ‘Tom Anderson’ and was incredibly confused why there weren’t a bunch of Matrix jokes?
(For those who don’t get it, Neo’s real name in the movie was Thomas Anderson)
duuhhh it IS fake,i’ve seen this on other sites before. just enjoy the good laugh,shall we? =) my social network history 1st:friendster(yeah,i know,HAHAHA) then i found myspace. lots of cool stuff,but then it turns out to be a spam pool and “online dating service” (remember the myspace-style profile pics?classic. haha. then, i switched to facebook because lots of my college friends are in there and it’s cleaner,more personal,and no random strangers spamming your wall. privacy settings are getting better and better. now i’m not turning back =)
You actually make it seem so easy with your presentation but I find this matter to be really something which I think I would never understand. It seems too complicated and very broad for me. I am looking forward for your next post, I’ll try to get the hang of it!
lol brilliant
Haha, so awesome and funny cause it’s true
On the other hand, there is no Failblog site for MySpace. Is that because there is less fail… or because the sheer quantity would eat up too much of Failblog’s server?
Its because no one has checked their myspace since 2007. And failblog wasn’t even around yet, it was a couple different websites etc.
I have checked my MySpace since 2007… I couldn’t remember someone’s last name to find them on Facebook, so I logged in to check.
Doesn’t count.
But point made.
Fail is only interesting if it’s NOT the norm.
Failbook’s scope includes Myspace and Twitter, at least it used to say that on the masthead somewhere once upon a time.
Hahaha, this is the best Failbook I’ve ever seen.
Good luck! MySpace was only popular in 2005-2008, your time was up a long time ago.
brutal!
fake n gay
fake and gay?………who pissed in your cornflakes.
so much motherf–king win.
Hey, thanks for informing us all that this isn’t a real screenshot of Tom joining Facebook and real conversations between him and Mark. We all believed it to be real until you so kindly clarified. What would we all do without you.
ANYWAYS…
This is the funniest Tom burn ever.
I can literally feel the sarcasm flowing off your message, my dear <3
Nowai! Dude, did you think these and the historic fails are supposed to be real? IT’S A SPOOF.
And gay is an insufficient adjective. Please, buy a dictionary, increase your vocabulary. Inanimate objects and internet sites do not have gender preferences.
Are they ever happy? Or does a word only change meaning once, and then it’s never okay to ever change it again?
Ooh, that’s true. I don’t know, can Failbook be happy?
Fake and happy. I like it.
^ +1 intenetz – that’s a lifestyle guru in the making
actually, Failbook is fake and homosexual.
did it ever stop?
They do if they’re French, Spanish, Latin, Italian…
You do know that ‘gay’ really means happy, right? So why does it have to have a gender? Queer people just call themselves gay to let the rest of the world know they are happy, and so it just became the norm, but gay means happy, not queer. (just for trivial thought)
^Queer and Gay/Homosexual^
You know those arrows point to your name don’t you?
your pentagon has a monocle
your monocle has a pentagon
Actually, in old English, queer means strange, not gay. So there.
Win.
Yep, there’s this amazing thing called “language shift”. Words often change or develop new meanings as time goes on.
Once upon a time, someone “condescending” to you was a GOOD thing.
Technically the meaning didn’t change – we just ceased to appreciate it
Much like discrimination!
But Queer mean weird….
somebody put hot sauce on his tampon
*winces*
Right. So the fact that it’s fake ruins it’s humor. Thank you for clearing that up good sir.

Good job, Ironica! You get 50 points to the house of your choice, plus two free Butterbeers in the Leaky Caldroun
Congratulations, troll. These comments here clearly mean you win.
Honestly, I am quite impressed.
hello little boy.. wanna come back to my house?
I agree. Failbook is funny when people make an arse of themselves… (not intentionally). That just kind of spoils it…
now that’s a giggle.
haha doesnt matter if this is fake or not its funny s**t!
Tom burn?
Facebook has no errors?
At least myspace didn’t change its privacy standards 6000 times, so that sometimes somethings are private, that you never knew were private before. At least myspace didn’t share your information as freely as facebook is.

I meant, some things are now public… that used to be private.

Because colleges are free of gullible teens.

I started on Xanga…
It started when people used to walk out their front door and meet people.
^This
^This
^That
^Those
Diaryland represent!
In my day we complained about the great Livejournal strikeouts and the company being sold to sixapart, none of this namby-pamby privacy nonsense!
I have an Open Diary… not a facebook.
Usenet, actually.
Privacy? How does voluntarily offering personal information to the interwebs and agreeing blindly to their terms show value for privacy?

lol @ the “Facebook is free of anything spam” comment. Insta-backfire.
That isn’t the real myspace tom nice try though. http://www.facebook.com/myspacetom
Oh, thank GOD, someone who revealed that it was fake. We are eternally in your debt.
(Also, you’re missing some capital letters and a period in there. Might wanna look into that.)
I get the sarcasm ^ but what is the point of even trying to correct someone’s grammar when this is the internet? Usually people type lazier because there really is no point in using good grammar and punctuation when you can get your point across by typing the easier way. Also, when you try to correct everyone’s grammar you come off as pretentious prick
How is the lazy way the easy way? It is just as easy to type the correct way and you don’t look uneducated.
because in the mind of the lazy man thoughts = work. Less thinking amounts to more point making.
Double negatives.
Grammar, even online, is important. Your statements are clearer and easier to read, it creates a good impression, and it shows respect to the other party that you were willing to take the type to type out an intelligent response.
I don’t dialogue with anyone that isn’t willing to type out three extra keys instead of one. It’s lazy and makes you sound like a retard. I can’t take you seriously as a supposedly intelligent person if you can’t even figure out how to use the English language, and what’s the point of arguing with stupid people?
Anybody else found the humour in this rant yet?
Apparently spelling is more important then even using the right word.
The right word for what?
*than
Lol, “and it shows respect to the other party that you were willing to take the type to type out an intelligent response.”
The type to type, hillarious only because of the point you were trying to make

hey, Mr Anderson… nice link! Mark should change his name to Agent Smith?
Mr. Anderson. Welcome back, we missed you.
that’s fake
Thanks Captain Obvious.
no u
At least Mark doesn’t immediately become one of your friends when you join!
First thing I did on myspace was ‘unfriend’ Tom!… oh then the fad died and I woke up to myself and removed my myspace profile!
The witchcraft comment made me laugh!
duuhhh it IS fake,i’ve seen this on other sites before. just enjoy the good laugh,shall we? =) my social network history 1st:friendster(yeah,i know,HAHAHA) then i found myspace. lots of cool stuff,but then it turns out to be a spam pool and “online dating service” (remember the myspace-style profile pics?classic. haha. then, i switched to facebook because lots of my college friends are in there and it’s cleaner,more personal,and no random strangers spamming your wall. privacy settings are getting better and better. now i’m not turning back =)
facebook.com/myspacetom
Tom is only jealous coz Myspace is getting less popular
They could’ve at least tried to use the actual font on Facebook and not Arial…
You’re fake and gay
toooo fake. so obvious its retarded. it says hes in a relationship with Murdoch T_T
How bout ya’ll chill your balls and agree that Myspace and Facebook both have its ups and downs and why the heck do you care about it anyway? LoL
My question is…why would he even accept Mark’s friendship?
“…is in a relationship with Rupert Murdoch.”
Ok everybody just calm your ballsacks, who the he’ll cares if it’s fake, it’s f**king funny k? Thanks
hahaha! in a relationship with Rupert Murdoch. gross.
Umm.. Did anyone else notice that Rupert Murdoch spelt LMAO wrong?
I don’t know what is funnier the screenshot or all the comments.
I call shooped.
LMAO To Funny to see Tom on here……
Wow i just wasted my life reading all these comments….
^This. And yet we still feel the need to contribute…
Facebook’s too mainstream, so I’m going back to vintage myspace to hide from people.
lol this guy is mental…..
this guy is mental ….
^ This guy is mental…
Facebook sucks asswater. Myspace is worse. Mafia Wars, FarmTown, Farmville, anything by Zynga is pure evil.
Now if you play CarTown … ADD ME!
I still use Friendster, because facebook and MySpace are too mainstream.
You actually make it seem so easy with your presentation but I find this matter to be really something which I think I would never understand. It seems too complicated and very broad for me. I am looking forward for your next post, I’ll try to get the hang of it!
