Myspace users understand this

dickkead: dude, i have an important question that you might be able to answer for me

Richar900: k

dickkead: do you have any idea where i can get a free $50 Macy’s gift card?

Sigh……………………………….

If I was just a random snarky blogger, I would leave the post at that and let everyone who gets it trade laughs and smug high fives.

But I have a legacy to think about and I have to make sure my material is timeless – and that is why I’m going to go ahead and explain that at the time of this posting, the social networking spammers paradise website known as Myspace.com is suffering an epidemic of hijacked profiles that send out auto-spam offering free Macys giftcards.

The spam shows the picture above, links to a spam site, talks in kidspeak so you think its a real message and not an auto-advertisement, and then steals your soul.

Every generation had a crisis to live through that they will reminisce with their peers forever. The Great Depression, World War 2, the Carter administration.

And now our generation has the Great Myspace Spam Attack of 07… or 04 to 07. depending how you want to gage it…
