Excuses

Fifteen witty and inappropriate excuses I've given recently to people telling me to get a MySpace/Facebook:

1. "Alternatively I could flush my college application down the toilet."
2. "Get a job."
3. "I don't even know Tom."
4. "I can name fifty more productive things to do."
5. "I'm not a conformist."
6. "I value my privacy too much to do that."
7. "Your concept of fun differs radically from mine."
8. "I have a blog; that's enough for me."
9. "I'm not photogenic enough."
10. "I'm gonna need to keep these brain cells for the next few years."
11. "Comcast might block them tomorrow, and it'd all have been for nothing."
12. "YourSpace sucks." (thanks to J!NX)
13. "Why would I do that?"
14. "I can't access {MySpace, Facebook} from my 386 running Telnet to my IRIX C shell account running Lynx."

And my personal favorite:

15. "Oh, I'm not brave enough for social networking."

If I have the time, I might compile a list of excuses for not getting a new phone, or not sending text messages.
