<p>I really wish I could explain what Google Wave is, what it does, or even how to use it, but I can&#8217;t. I have a lot of invites for Google Wave and I can&#8217;t even give them away. </p>
<p>This will probably be the last time I&#8217;ll bring it up, but I want to have fun trying to get rid of these invites. So here&#8217;s the deal, I&#8217;m willing to barter something for an invite but not just anything. I want some trivia, random X-Men trivia. Just leave it in the comments of this post and if its good, I&#8217;ll bounce you an invite.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>So I saw GI Joe: the Rise of Cobra the other day and I realized a few things:</p>
<p>1. Sienna Miller looks better as a brunette. So much better that I think she could have kept her man if she looked like the Baroness all the time.</p>
<p>2. I need to stop reading movie spoilers on <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GI_Joe_The_Rise_of_Cobra" target="_blank">Wikipedia</a>. I knew the entire movie going in, and sat there anticipating specific scenes.</p>
<p>3. Kung fu fight scenes involving children made the movie for me. One kid even pulled a knife out on the other. Hot shit!</p>
<p>4. Technically <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0093066/" target="_blank">GI Joe: The Movie</a> was overall a better movie then this one. But you can accomplish so much more in animation then in live-action.</p>
<p>and 5. Snake Eyes mask reminded me of something&#8230; really can&#8217;t put my finger on it but&#8230;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Maybe I&#8217;m being a little over-sensitiveÂ but the following exchange struck a nerve with me. I was chilling watching the video for BeyoncÃ© new single &#8216;Single Ladies (Put A Ring On It)&#8217; and a friend of mines had IM&#8217;ed me on Yahoo!: <span id="more-1166"></span></p>
<p>HIM: put a ring on it huh<br />
HIM: they converted ya&#8230;lol<br />
ME: and who would be they?<br />
HIM: sissies<br />
HIM: da Beyonce crew<br />
HIM:<br />
ME: hmmmm<br />
HIM: what u doing<br />
ME: watching tv and trying to clean<br />
ME: got clothes everywhere<br />
HIM: ahh yes da sunday ritual<br />
ME: I guess<br />
ME: but other than that just been chilling<br />
HIM: kool<br />
ME: how about u<br />
HIM: i&#8217;m doing kool<br />
HIM: had fun yesterday<br />
ME: thats nice<br />
HIM: yeah<br />
ME: hold on<br />
ME: brb<br />
HIM: k<br />
ME: ok back<br />
HIM: kewl<br />
ME: sissies?<br />
HIM: das what i call da beyonce crew<br />
ME: and who are they<br />
HIM: da gay boys who lover her music that they would become her if they could<br />
ME: oh<br />
ME: okay<br />
ME: dont know anybody like that<br />
HIM: a couple in yo frat r like that but das another story<br />
HIM: lol<br />
ME: bye</p>
<p>Overall I was just pretty offended but the last line just set me off. I hold my letters and my brothers in high regard. I know that my people are not perfect. I firmly believe that my fraternity and especially my chapter works well is because we are all different types of men, who have come together to work and fellowship who genuinely like and respect each other. So why some may be somewhat effeminate in their mannerisms, they are also the strongest and bravest MEN I have ever met. So to hear that just flipped a switch in my head and I it came to me.</p>
<p>Recently I&#8217;ve been catching more and more of what my friend has said to me; like telling me he spends more time talking to my BF than I do, and how he hangs out with my BF. I believe that if it was anybody else, I would have put their head through a wall but I paid it no mind because is a mutual friend of me and the BF. And I&#8217;m not saying that I&#8217;m jealous or even suspicious of who my guy is friends with but after several times where I&#8217;ve made plans with the BF and only to be stood up so he can hang out with the friend, I&#8217;m just not comfortable with the entire situation. Time to re-evaluate the situation&#8230;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Iâ€™m generally weary of any website that touts itself as a social network. Maybe Iâ€™m just getting old and Iâ€™m failing to keep up with the kids. Where instead of putting any type of effort, creating and showcasing a designed website, people flock to sites like facebook, myspace and such to generate what amounts to a clusterfuck of brightly flickering colors, images, horrendous coding and Internet predators.Yes, I admit that I really donâ€™t get the point of social networking site but I guess that ultimately proposes the $10,000 Peso question; Why am I on facebook?</p>
<p>I understand the context that yes, this is a social networking site i.e. networking in a online social environment. But doesnâ€™t that sound like a big crock of shit? Can you truly have a honest to goodness social and networking experience online? Certainly online networking cannot hold a candle to events where interpersonal communication say like a company picnic or a dinner party. Maybe Iâ€™m comparing apples and oranges but tagging a picture of that funny face you made at the Christmas Party last year in someoneâ€™s online album wouldnâ€™t have the same effect as showing off your photo album at the family barbecue and explaining that funny face. But I digress.</p>
<p>So to answer the from above; why am I on facebook? I really canâ€™t. Blame the fact that I keep getting facebook invites from all my frat brothers and after the fifteenth one, I finally decided to accept, not really knowing what I was getting into. I know, I live on the edge. I really donâ€™t have high expectations for this site or my profile. Thereâ€™s a chance I could say â€˜Fuck this!â€™ and delete it all next week. All I can say is that my name is Tony, and Iâ€™m on facebook.</p>
<p>*Edit* I guess If I were to write a entry about being on Facebook, I should at least put a link to my Facebook page.</p>
