Internet Thuggin'

When asked about dissing Lebron James on facebook Deshawn Stevenson responded,

 "There’s like 37 people that are acting like me on Facebook.  I mean, if you look at me and look at all these tattoos, do you think I’d be sitting on the Internet and typing?" 

I don't even know why reporters would ask him this question.  Isn't it common knowledge everyone who is tatted up doesnt do nerdy stuff like sit on internet and type?
