The Jon Identity
It’s cool that people are reading my site and all, but I can’t help to wonder those random people who have mistaken me for someone else. Most of the people that I subscribe to are my friends or people I have met, then the other few are just random people that I find their blog interesting.
From time to time I get weird e-mails from strangers that goes something like this…”HEY JON!! HOWZ IT GOING?!?! haven’t talked to u in ages!..blah blah blah.” Then I visit their Xanga site and find that I absolutely don’t know them. Jon is a pretty common name, also this points out the feature of emailing someone from Xanga. In the ‘To: (recipient email or username)’ field. It clearly says email or username, I’m guessing majority of the people just put their friend’s name ‘Jon’ (which coincidentally happens to be my username) into that field and ends up in my Inbox. Next time put their email or username, not just their first name.
Then there are those people who mistaken me for some other Jon and leaves nasty comment(s), nasty guestbook entry or both. How can someone be sure that they know me just by reading my site? They don’t and yet they jump to conclusion that I am that Jon. Those nasty entries are just rude. Wouldn’t they care to do more research? Yes but they don’t. The feeling of being accused is unpleasant, I’m sure everyone know how that feels. I know it can be tough to figure out who’s who on the Internet so please use better judgement!
For those who just likes to leave me nasty comment(s) or guestbook entry(ies). Those are funny. I got some memorable one in my guestbook.
It would be great if I get 25 cents everytime someone mistaken me for another Jon, I’d be rich!!
Alright people, hope everyone had a good weekend. Have fun at work/school/whateveryoudoduringtheday!
