First off, Gattaca has cracked my top 5 movies (not sure where it stands within the top 5)... amazing film. Go see it if you haven't (or borrow it from me).

Feeling rather bored, I was wasting an ample amount of time on Facebook tonight. Apparently Facebook has been busy with that $200 million valuation building craptacular features. Naturally, I decide to upload some photos ... and as I'm uploading and tagging, I decide (in my sleep-depriven 5am mind) that it'd be hilarious if I started tagging non-sequiturs to my friends.

To begin, if you 'tag' someone to an image, it appears under their name in facebook:

The proximity of the "View more photos of me" link to your user image makes it very click-friendly. So to clarify my non-sequitur idea, *my* current "view more photos" shows these images that are tagged to "Roy Kim":

The first image represents the delicate flower that I am... *cough*. The second picture is an appeal to Naomi Watts (I tagged her as the pink figure, I am the blue figure) to fall in love with me (although I doubt she browses Facebook). The third picture is meant to counteract the girlyness in the first two pictures by showing a picture of me standing by a BIG PHALLIC BUILDING. When in doubt, phallic pictures always reinforce manliness! The point of the game is to tag images that have no relation to the user. I think that's hilarious (right now, although I'll wake up tomorrow morning and delete this post. Thank god for the delete button!)

My first victim will be Pete Robson. Pete's a hilarious guy (one of those guys who's really cool, but it's just so easy to make fun of him for some things...). I have currently tagged him:

I expect retaliation. I am ready. I have also declared war on Nasty Nate (check it, NASTY!). I am thinking of proper images to use for other Facebook "friends."

MUHAHAHAHA.

Edit: I can attach multiple tags to the same location on each image... I have attached more users to the image. Now whenever a potential hottie looks at their profiles, they will be turned off by a huge picture that says: "40 YEAR OLD VIRGIN."

That's mean. I would never use tagging in such a mean way.

I almost conceded defeat after you tagged me. ALMOST. I WILL defeat you, because even though I am down 17 points with about seven and a half minute left, I am confident that I'll hit a buzzer-beater to defeat you.

You are absolutely right about Gattaca, by the way. Great movie.

I can't find a single thing to change about that movie. I can't say that about any other film - perfectly cast, perfect mood ... man. I'm still giddy after watching it last night.

"You know how I did it? I never saved anything for the swim back."

Good stuff.

Man, the evil possibilities of tagging are endless! I'm loving this, though, of course, I am a fine upstanding citizen and would never consider doing such a thing.

P.S. Roy, tabulas is looking good!

Haha! This is the best abuse of tagging. Before, it was just to put up unflattering pictures.

A couple hundred bucks and a trip to vegas will cure that at any time ;)
