If internet years were equal to dog years, Mark Chapman has already spent an entire lifetime on the world wide wait. Many human years later, the new tube finally delivers and Mark is only too happy to be your guide to the weird, whacky and wonderful online. Suing Google. Clever.

I hate petty lawsuits. I'm definitely no fan of folks who try to get rich off of a volatile mix of their own stupidity and legal technicalities, but sometimes, they can be good for a laugh.
In my humble opinion, the only reward for someone who slips on their own spilt drink in a Mickey Dee's is a cracked pip and mop to clean up.
And yes, apple pies are hot when heated, moron.
Now here's a new contender for dumbest lawsuit cross conspiracy-theory ever. In a snippet found on Techdirt, it turns out that a man in the States is convinced that Google is infringing on his rights.
In a handwritten lawsuit against the gazillion dollar search engine giant, in which he asks for $5 billion in damages, the plaintiff explains that his US social security number, when turned upside down - and scrambled - spells Google.
The plaintiff, who claims his "safety is in je(o)pardy" recommends that the defendants, Google, should also be detained on suspicion of assisting in terrorism or affiliating with terrorist organisations. Mmm...
And, he feels the need to mention the fact that he owns a Burton Fish snowboard, valued at $200. Okay then...
Will the favourite toy building blocks be next, seeing as the secret code also spells "Go Lego!"?
Strange, but true... You can view and download his scrawled submission here.
