Edit: For anyone who's keeping track, I received my very own letter this morning, at my work address, addressed to me using a middle initial which I don't use socially but which appears on official records.

The letter arrived several hours after I'd written a parody referencing myself as one of the people affected by the threatened lawsuit. Admittedly, I did post a single comment on one of the contested posts. However, I'd much prefer to think either that I'm psychic or that there's a blue police box in my future.

Further edit: My mother received a copy of the letter, addressed to me, at her home address (where I was once, briefly registered to vote while I was between apartment leases in two other cities). She is very upset. To avoid any further risk of involving my family in this mess, I've removed the potentially objectionable content.

At this point, I think the best result of the lawsuit would be a swift dismissal and a recording contract.

[edit] either that I'm psychic or that there's a blue police box in my future.

Why settle for one? It's a flexible universe.

That was excellent.

However, I would suggest that davis_snark is perhaps a better location for such things, just from a legal perspective... (I'm really surprised that Davis_snark hasn't sprung back to life because of all this...)

I'm curious why you would say Snark is a better location from a legal perspective. A number of posts from Snark are cited in the suit, and I'm named as the mod of Snark, though I was not at the time of this whole thing.

I just assumed that snark could be members locked more easily and that Jonmon was presumably NOT a member of snark...

Never assume that the target of a snarking doesn't have a sock in the snark community.

And the only reason I'm singing you this song now is cause you may know somebody in a similar situation, or you may be in a similar situation, and if you're in a
situation like that there's only one thing you can do and that's walk into the internet wherever you are, just walk in say "Internet, You can get anything you want, at Alice's restaurant. And furthermore, Jon Monserrat is a creep." And walk out.

Are we up to 50 people/day yet?

I did not get to see this.

The reason I did not get to see this is insane.

The reason I did not get to see this is because somebody who is insane* has successfully been able to silence someone through intimidation both legal and personal.

Okay, first off: At what point does this become harassment?

Second: I will gladly post the song in your name back to DSLJ. It is a piece of *pure* genius and should not be censored! :)

"At what point does this become harassment?"

A while ago.

I am properly outraged on your behalf, and if there is anything whatsoever I can do that is helpful, let me know.

Also, I did not get to see the parody, and this makes me sad. :-( Email me a copy? *looks hopeful*

Me, too? You could message me with it...

Can I get a copy of whatever was here before?

I don't see how he could have sent you a letter today based on a song that you posted this morning. The USPS isn't that fast and never has been.

Now that this is over, would you like to put your song back up?
