People still use MySpace/Facebook? Talk about outdated!MySpaceBook is where everyone's at!!111/worked in campus computer lab, saw people spend all day on these trendy piles of crap.
a lot of you guys are missing the point.you are insulting these people who, probably on the whole, never did anything to you and have since passed, mostly in tragic ways. just because they had a trendy online profile doesn't mean you get free reign on bashing them.sure, many probably were messed up with all that suicide/emo/whatever crap, but some of these comments are baseless and disgusting. the joking on such a topic is just immature.also, the link through the article to legacy.com is an interesting site, and also very tragic. something to go see if you've never been before- look for the moving tributes.
