The good thing about a lot of things is sometimes also the bad thing. Myspace, of course, will be my source for an example.

The greatest thing about Myspace is the accesibility. Anyone with a digital camera and the tech know-how of anyone who graduated from highschool in the last 5 to 10 years, can quickly make 9000 friends.
Fact: that is cool, and it is for that reason (or just the accessibility) that is why it has left an indelible mark on the collective conciousness (check out this awesome and hilarious documentary and the already infamous but mostly crappy MySpace, The Movie for examples of these marks). The worst thing about Myspace is the accesibility. Any asshat snorkle surfer with a digital camera and his girlfriend’s laptop at some wi-fi coffee shop can try and make you one of his 9000 friends, and if you accept too many of the friend-hounds, you will find that you will be deluged with chainletters, quizes, pathetic requests for a date, or useless statements like “I just got home from biking all day and I’m tired.”
Fact: a lot of people are dumb, and when you have a lot of people in one place, that place sometimes appears to be dumb. Unlike other corners of the internet, which are also highly accessible, Myspace is so equal in its accessibility that even dumb people can join and love it, but just as I do not hate life just because a lot of dumb people are alive, I do not hate being on Myspace just because a lot of people on Myspace are dumb. I just avoid them.
All other attacks on Myspace are invalid
