0:00 Hit the beat beep with a click clip and a clack clack and a tong and a >> and a tong and a bong bong and a bing bonga boom boom. >> All right, Bart, if somehow I was able to get into your old MySpace and open up your messages, what kind of stuff would I find >> in the messages? >> Oh, >> wow. Scary. >> Did you access that? >> I think probably hitting up like a hundred chicks at a time. >> Oh my god. >> That's my dog. >> Oh, me too. >> Like randos. >> Yeah. >> Oh, dude. >> Especially Randos.
0:50 >> Did it ever work? >> No. cuz I think >> they're all just left on red >> cuz I think during that time I think the precursor to that to talking to chicks might have been aim >> and the way I think like at least the way me and my friends did was like if we were at different schools or from different areas >> you would just like hey like introduce me to a random chick you don't even know what they look like but you just want to have conversation hey me my friending Wendy or whatever >> it's exciting to talk to new people >> talking okay blah blah blah blah blah >> Wendy >> but then when you when you're able to now have a picture and have people's profile. That's like the next step up. And then when you're at that age, I think during MySpace, I was probably I don't know like 20 or something or 19 or whatever, then you're just like, "Oh ████ now I can access all kinds of people from all over and just go crazy.
1:41 Just like DM like a million or DM message." You would just send it would just be like send message and then you would just like click it and it would it would look more like an email >> and I just copy and paste constantly. >> You would copy and paste your like opening line. >> Some of them I if I like inspired by one I might like >> so what you wearing I might comment something >> but they would just be like okay I think this is this might work on 100 people. >> Do you remember what your line was? >> I don't remember. >> Hey >> I really don't. >> Hey Bart. >> You watch Simpsons? >> You watch Simpsons? I got hit up by a Bart group. >> Really? Bart group? >> Yeah. They're like they they hit me like, "Hey, Bart, this is Bart." >> Well, now that's a good line. >> And then I was like, "Oh s███." They're like, "Hey, you want to join the BART group?" And there was like eight other Barts in there. >> Only eight? >> Cool. >> I thought there would be more. >> I'm like, "Dude, I'm down." And then
2:31 that's it. And I don't Nothing came out of it. No one was like, "Hey, try to like organize a meetup." >> Wow. >> I did get hit up to uh join a um pyramid scheme scam. Which one was it? >> Kind of stuff. How special? >> No, it was called um >> this one past 2 by two. >> This one's called like Vartekch or some ████ >> Bart. >> You thought it was my company. >> No, they messaged me. So, I'm like I don't know, 19, right? So, I'm like eager to do things >> or maybe 18. And they're like, "Hey, um yeah, you look like uh like a hustler. Like your page looks like like like you're into hustling or whatever." I'm like, "You're right. Like, how'd you how'd you know my work ethic?" >> Just perfect victim. >> Yeah. Yeah. Oh, yeah. Yeah. You're you're right. How do you know? >> Go get you. >> Yeah. You look like a go-getter. Uh >> just buttering him up. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. Knows me. Does like making like $800 an hour like seem like a whatever
3:21 amount. I'm like $8 an hour. And he's like, "Well, he's like I don't usually like tell people this stuff, but like um one of my my mentors was like blah blah blah Empire, whatever. He's going to be speaking at this event >> and there's only select few and I I want to make sure we don't like crowd this place with like, you know, make that whole kind of like sleazy like >> sure. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. >> And then I'm like, hey, the guy that has this tattoo. >> Hey. So, I got a a message from whatever is. I'm like, "Did you get a message?" He's like, "What the why did you get one?" And he's like, he checked. He's like, "Oh, I got it, too." And I'm like, "Man, I guess you're a go-getter, too." That >> we're friends. A. >> So we went >> That didn't make you think it was a scam. It made you feel like he was a go-getter. >> It was a 19year-old. I was like >> that's where your mind went. >> Oh go. >> I'd be like, "Wait, this is a little fishy." But no, Bart's like, "All right,
4:12 we're the same." >> Cuz I'm 19 and I'm >> buds. >> Yeah. 19. >> You were ████ >> So we go to this place. I think it was in Burbank or Glendale or something, but it's like at a hotel and it's at one of those conference rooms downstairs. >> We show up. There might be like ████ 50 other go-getters. I don't know, >> Coers. >> That was the name of the company. >> And then we're we're all sitting there and this guy comes up like ████ in a in like a a dress shirt and he starts talking and then you're like, "Oh, wow. This guy like is a fast talking guy." And what was crazy is uh it already boosts your morale that high cuz you're like, "Oh ████ this is a this is what this is what I could be. I could be like him. This is a real go-getter." >> And then he announces the presence of his mentor. So each guy outdresses the other guy. Now this guy comes in a suit and then you're like, "Oh, it's like
5:03 first you may ████ Sagit, now it's Mbison." You know, and you're like, "Oh, ████ ████ Mbison." >> And then Akuma. >> Yeah. So by the time Mbison gets there, he goes in the middle of talking, he's like, "Oh, wait a second. This is the real guy." He's stuck in traffic in his Lambo. And then everyone's like, "Oh, f███." In his ████ I just have a 3 series. >> This is such a funny situation. >> But that's how they do it, though. That's legit. We're like, "F███, I'm in the ████ round mode, dude. That's crazy." >> In the slideshow, it's always them in like a nice ass car or something. >> He finally shows up. We break out into ████ uh like ████ little breakout groups or whatever. Then the bottom guys all kind of like meet with a group of five, group of five. >> Yeah. >> And all right, guys. So, we're team whatever. Um so, who wants in? And then the part that caught me off guard was in order to like make a,000 or whatever,
5:54 you first have to contribute 500 bucks. So, everyone has to put in 500 bucks to start your own business. Don't start your own business. >> And that's when I was like, "What the f███?" Like, what? >> Did you have that kind of money back then? >> ████ no. 18, 19, hell no, dude. >> That's That's the age where everybody went to their first pyramid scheme meeting. That's a lot of money. That's the age, bro. >> Yeah, cuz you get 800 bucks an hour, you're like, >> "Holy s███." >> I My dumb ass got gotten one where the guy was like, "Hey, we're having a little party this weekend." And I was like, "All right, cool." I went and I was like, "What the ████ is it?" There's all these energy drinks on the I'm like, "What the ████ is it? This is a this is a PowerPoint." And I was like, "What?" And as soon as he started talking, I was like, "I'm out, bro. I can't stay. I got to go." >> You were You were like ready to party >> and I was like, "Okay, cool. That's that's cool. This d invited me. All right, whatever." He didn't say I look like a go-getter. If he said that, I
6:44 would have been like, "Okay, yeah, I am a go-getter." >> A freaking Hawaiian shirt. >> Yeah. I was like, "Hey guys, where's the party?" >> Got the the Viking helmet with the ████ the beer can. >> You put up in the freshest fit, huh? Nikes and everything. That's sad, man. I would be bummed out. >> Came in swimming shorts. It was It was a day party. >> That's what you'll find on my MySpace. >> You You know something that's kind of sad in mine is that >> you looked recently? >> No, there's no way to see it anymore. >> I don't even know which emails associated with my MySpace to be honest. >> They took out everything. You can't even go get it. >> Can you like way back machine it? >> Uh I don't know if you you can weigh back machine anything that's publicly visible. I believe but not if you have to log in. >> Oh, okay. >> Uh yeah, there's so my MySpace I remembered when we were on So You Thinking and Dance 2005, they made they were still antisocial media. So we had
7:35 to they asked us to delete them. But I didn't delete mine. I just made my photo black and then just like wrote on the status thing that like, oh, while we're on the show, I have to like black it out. M. >> And then I remember getting like so much like fan mail like once the show started and I I had like tons of like I didn't even look at it cuz I was like I'll never be able to read all that ████ and I just left it that way. And then like a few years later I remember like feeling like kind of like down and like feeling like I wasn't famous anymore and ████ and I was just like kind of like what am I doing? And then so like I went back in my inbox and I just responded to every person and I was like, "Hey, thank you for back in the day you were like trying to write to me." I was kind of like I was in my own head like I thought I was too cool to say something and I I like
8:25 wrote back to everybody's ████ >> You didn't just copy and paste like Bart. >> No, I was like so sad. >> I'm a gogetter. >> I was so sad. >> Were you question? >> I think it was making me happier to actually like, you know, say something to them like years later. I was actually reading them all because I needed it for like my confidence and I was like, "Damn, man. I can't believe I left all these just sitting there unread." >> Yeah. So, like the last thing you I did was that before like MySpace just kind of like got defunct. So, like my last inbox is just all like, "Thank you. Thank you so much. You really cared, huh?" >> But then if they all if it all got closed, then did they even get to check your message? >> I don't know. I don't know. It wasn't um it didn't really get like closed immediately. It kind of just slowly happened, but that that's the last thing I remember uh using my messages for. Other than that, if you go further back,
9:15 then it's just like his where I'm just hitting on everybody. >> Hell yeah. >> That's the move >> with a personality I completely don't have in real life. >> Yeah. >> It's like I'm not like that. >> Go get her checking in here. >> I was that guy. I was like that guy, you know, when my lamp up, >> you all that dirty talking ████ and then when Oh, when I see you, you better be and then I get ready. And then I get there and then I'm like this. >> Hi.

No, I remember there was a time where like if you there was a girl you liked or whatever, you put a picture of her on your MySpace or whatever on like your HTML code.
