There have been some that lift my eyebrows, there have been some that make them do that perplexed expression thing, and then there are the ones that are so strange, you have to wonder if your friends are hoaxing you. Unfortunately, in the back of your mind, you feel pretty sure that your friends would do a better job at it. These messages are so ultimately, so critically disfunctional, they have to be genuine.
I truly regret I've only started with this one. Others have completely dropped out of my inbox on MySpace or been deleted. But from now on, I'll be diligent, yes, a diligent steward, recording these snapshots of the MySpace FantasyLand mentality.
From Haris (charming picture of a dark haired guy with nice build) titled "hello beauty" (who wouldn't read something that starts with such a nice compliment?) :

Okay, now I realize VERY FEW messages on MySpace are NOT weird. This one is the last I'll post, unless there is a significant jump in the level of communication strangeness.
The following is an exchange with Ken (very handsome picture of a man who looks like a stockbroker or possibly a model):

Hi Ken,
Very good, thank you. How are you?
You have a very handsome smile. Your profile doesn't say very much about you, though. What is your life like in New York?
Have a good weekend,
Deborah
--- his bizarre, weird reply ---
