One of the MOST ANNOYING messages you will come across on the social networking community Myspace.

What it means is that that particular user has chosen to make the pictures in their photo page only available to friends, or sometimes nobody at all.

- -

These people may have a myriad of reasons to justify hiding their photos, which include:

Shyness (rather stupid, since you put yourself on the web in the first place - why not show all?)

To repel pervs - understandable, since there are certainly a lot out there. Not all hot 19 year-old chicks on myspace want some icky 40-year old fat guy masturbating to their photos.

To prevent "fakes" - for some strange reason, certain losers love to steal people's pictures, and make a fake profile using those pictures. The motives for this are lost on me. Maybe these losers get off on how many views their fake profile gets??

To prevent picture theft and editing - again, people sometimes steal the pictures, and then photoshop them in various ways. I don't understand why.

And the final reason - just to be annoying.
Teenage boy 1: "Hey, I just found some really cute girl on myspace"
Teengage boy 2: "Let's look at her pics!"
Teenage boy 1: "Oh, damn, they're set to private!"
Teenage boy 2: "Huh?"
Teenage boy 1: "Yeah, it says The user you're trying to view has set all their photos to private."

A drive in which you see a church chapel. Causes you to think about missing church which then causes you to speed home quickly to get away from the thought. The police then pull you over.

Viewing Area

A pathetic way to inform viewers of how large the television market serves when typically a) the market size is small versus b) the effected radiated power serves much further away than its market boundaries.
"The thunderstorms are moving to the north at 10mph outside of the viewing area". The area they are mentioning could very well pick up that television station and are seeking important weather information from them.

Using a map that only shows the counties and locations the television station serves

Using a state abbreviation when a location is outside of their so called "viewing area" within the state the station is located at.

Computer View

In film, the shot where people are looking into the camera as if it were a computer.
My favorite part of the scene was the computer view the director used in the beginning.
