I'm Not Mark Zuckerberg (Part 2)

This looks like it might turn into a series.  I've been getting a lot more Facebook friend requests and random messages from strangers since The Social Network came out, some of them nice, some of them filled with refined crazy.  Frankly, I'm impressed that some of these people are able to use the Internet at all.  Given the number of these messages I get, Mark Zuckerberg's Facebook inbox must be completely unusable.  This guy below sent me a long, Torah-related message a few days ago.  I didn't even know how to respond to that, so I did nothing until I got the message below.  I figured I had two options with my response here.  I could, as a lawyer, carefully explain to him what the First Amendment does prohibit (government restrictions on speech) and what it does not prohibit (private company restriction on speech on a privately-owned website).  Or I could taunt him.  I chose the latter.

The latter was an excellent choice.

Idunno man. I think he has a rock solid case there.

Best taunt ever.

You should start a blog and post all of the craziest messages you receive. I'd check it out.

" Frankly, I'm impressed that some of these paper are able to use the Internet at all. "

That's awesome.

Also, I was able to track that guy down that sent this message. He has 1,296 friends so I don't know if you want to mess with him. Also, he seems to be fucking insane.

" @Castro: He does seem pretty nuts, but I don't know what kind of damage he could do.  I don't think he has access to my personal information (pretty sure I only share that with friends).  And if he wants to just clutter my Facebook inbox with more insane rants, that's fine by me.  I don't really use Facebook much anyway.

What's going on in your DP? It looks like a fat guy bumming someone...

You should change your FB profile picture to a picture of Jesse Eisenberg.

It's surprising how many people say "free speech" like it was scripture, but play the constitutional law game of pretending that the actual clause defends them against all attempts to shut them up (including plain old jeering) rather than talking about it as a basic human right and trying from that angle on philosophical grounds or something.  Whee.

Dude. You need to ride this train as long as it lasts.

xD This is great. Do change your picture to Eisenburg as well.

You could easily become the next Fake Steve Jobs. You could be the "Real" Mark Zuckerburg.
