“Vacancy Filled by Mycock” or “Love Gets Hands on Mycock” may have been more appropriate headlines.

Your point is well made Private. Mycock is an upstanding member of the online community.

Private @ # 30, People are having fun with the name which has no bearing on the individual nor their ablity. I would hazard a guess and suggest the majority here have never met Peter and had it not been for his colourful surname, would not be commenting at all.
Keep your head up Pete.

Mycock’s quote in the article is a load of wank. No pun. Well, a little pun.
Nevertheless, a memorable entry for mycock I’d say after reading the comments.

Geez… it’s the REAL Mycock from MySpace here. If anyone would like to have a chat about MySpace, my name or indeed my… erm… cock then do let me know. Hit me up at peter.mycock@myspace-inc.com… It was meant to be pmycock@myspace-inc.com – thankfully the good folk at MySpace & IGN Entertainment took pity on me and opted for the full-name email address.
Must say I’m secretly thrilled to have caused a bit of a stir on arrival.
Look forward to meeting you all in due course.

hey pete – nice to Meat you and thanks for throwing your hat in the Ring!
Seems you’ve got a good head on your shoulders humouring all these comments. Myspace is a hard gig, but I’m sure you’ll pull it off. Just ensure you get all the local troops to come together as one, lest the gig blows up in your face..
all the breast!
-ps. regards to brother phil

“Mycock comes in rear entrance to sidestep waiting media throng.”

…….this highlights the combined mental capacity of the australian media industry…and another thing…not one comment from a woman apart from Miss V who most likely is a man woman much like me so doesn’t count . Any wonder companies have to ship the real experts on media in from London you bunch of losers. Back to your cocks boys.
