PimpSpace

Myspace has always been a tad sketchy, but in the past few days it's gotten completely out of control.

Simply being both a member of Myspace and a female means you'll get the standard lame requests from lame guys who are looking for hookups. (D E R R E K and Da Snake: please stop trying.) But in the last 24 hours, I've gotten two messages from Nashville males that go above and beyond the usual pathetic attempts.

The first was from a 36-year-old divorced photographer who specializes in "adult oriented modeling and online videos". Apparently, he thinks I have the "fresh-faced look" he's been searching for and told me to message him back if I was interested in the "opportunity."

I definitely did not.

The next message was from a 31-year-old owner of a local escort service. Again, I apparently have the "look and personality that his clients look for" (which made me laugh). The message was so hysterically out there, I just couldn't resist messaging the guy back to ask for more details.

He responded within ten minutes:
It's pretty simple...men or women contact us seeking a date for a specified period of time. Based on what they are seeking, we match them with a suitable escort. It's pretty similar to most dates, really...usually dinner or somethign along those lines. Sex is often involved...but it does pay $350 per hour! You choose your own days and hours. Benefits include professional photos and a dependable driver.

Having had my curiosity satisfied (and my stomach repulsed), I didn't respond back. Thirty minutes later, he wrote me again:
You got quiet...

So I responded back:
Probably because you asked me to be a glorified prostitute...and the LAST thing I need in my life is a pimp.

Thankfully, I haven't heard from him since.

No freaking wonder The Today Show does 27 segments a week on "the dangers of Myspace."


It's terrifying...
