I have mixed feelings about MySpace, and for a number of reasons.

I get quite a large number of requests from people wanting to be my friend, most of which I wouldn’t piss on if they were on fire. I’m not interested in having friends who are in some suck-arse group who can’t get a recording contract even though they have thousands of friends. You can’t get a contract because you’re crap - face it. Even though you have comments from people saying how good your music is, let me tell you: it isn’t.

I don’t want friends who have nothing in common with me. I don’t want friends who just want to bump their friends figure up. Are you really that insecure as a human being that you need to boost your ego with cyber mates? Get over it.

I don’t want you as a friend if you’re an occult newbie and you want me as a teacher as I have better things to do with my time. Just because you’ve read a few books doesn’t mean that I want to take you under my wing. Heaven knows I get enough emails every week from people who want a part of me. I’m not a Psychologist and I have better things to do than sort out your fucked up life, what you have of one that is.

I don’t want you as a friend even if you’ve written an “occult” book and you hope to make a name for yourself. You’re more than likely just a copy and paste merchant with no real knowledge. Find something better to do with your time, like getting a life, and then write from experience. THAT may be worth reading.

I don’t want you as a friend if you can’t think for yourself. Just because you’re a member of the OTO doesn’t mean that I would entertain you. I’ve only ever met one member of the OTO in twenty years that I would give the time of day to, and they ended up getting expelled.

I do want you as a friend if you can think for yourself, know me personally or want to exchange ideas on a level playing field, i.e. you have actually picked up a wand and have used it.

I also give preferences to women because I love them, but don’t entertain them if they fit into any of the above negative criteria.

To quote Anton LaVey: What good are friends if they don’t do you any good?

My reply: They’re no good and I don’t want them.
