Care to clue us in on what this dastardly villain has done?

He/she/it's on Livejournal? They must be slime.

I'm appalled that you're wearing a hat 1) indoors and 2) at the *table*. Sweet lord, Dan.

No self pictures in his icons page = he's fat and ugly or old and sad. You're rich, you're influential, you're cute (even in this blurry thing with your NorthFace very Seattle hooded shell and butch hat), you're read, and you're loved. Let's point and laugh at this loser banzai

Clearly this person is sexually attracted to you. How about a column on this kind of fetish?

Yes, definitely some Christian repressed crush going on here. Banzai hearts Dan.

totally off-topic, but those ads for Hump are killing me. Far too distracting and yummy (except the clown mask).

I've been eating out John Bailo for 15 years, and I agree with Maximillian: Go eat your curds and whey, Dan Savage!

why do you keep following him?

dan, i have to agree with balt-o-matt re: hat indoors. just. not. done. also, i loathe these "churches" that clothe themselves in hipster garb to pass under the radar. just so douche-y. can we go back to the days when christianist assholes weren't in bands, didn't attend shows, or frequent bars, let alone hang out on capitol hill? i mean, i stay out of their "world". i don't go to the cheesecake factory, bothell or mars hill. please stay out of my world. and if you are compelled to come to a show or eat at ballet, at least shut the hell up about it not complying to your narrow-minded world view.

He's almost as maniacally dedicated as the "Kurt Cobain Was Murdered" guy - maybe you could hook them up, Dan?

I love their spring rolls. Why are you following him, Dan? Who is this person? Please, lunch ended like 10 minutes ago. You can't expect me to find out on my own. I'm too drunk to fingerfuck google right now.

I have to admit, "Go Away, Dan Savage, Go Away" has a catchy ring. Would be a great children's book title. Sort of a reverse "Where's Waldo". Would he rather run into Dr. Ruth at lunch? Is it sex columnists, or just you he hates? Besides himself, of course.

Look for significance of soup in the "Milk and Toby" story in today's USA Today Newspaper.

I don't see the problem. If you sat next to me, I'd buy your lunch.

That blog makes my head heard. I don't get the theme, or focus, or why the fuck he's using the word banzai. More importantly, did Ballet do a big remodel or management change in the last 10 years? I tried it a few times in the 90's and thought it was terrible. Chances are if it's still there, something got better.

Dude has a whole tag, icon, etc. devoted to you on his LiveJournal. He probably types these posts one-handed.

If you sat next to me, I wouldn't buy you lunch. I would probably vomit due to the sickly wetness that the anuses of your retarded little fanboys drip like tears from the cloaca of an angel, stinking up da joint. You suck and your fans are retarded. Every wonder if Hitler liked the people that worshiped him? Yup, you suck. Maybe I would just spit in your food when you went to the can or to refill yer sody pop. It's hard to tell these days.

@6 & @15, there are still people like you? there are really hat rules?

All your ballet are belong to us. I would have that at least that much would be obvious, even to a religulous nutter.

@27 There is only one clothing rule now: Never be unintentionally badly dressed.

Who says "beer is my love language" really? Oh Dan, please come to Pittsburgh again so I can randomly see you out to lunch. I can see how seeing someone could make your day, but ruin it?

I thought I'd give the guy the benefit of the doubt and started to read through his blog but all of a sudden I had the urge to...zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz snort...where am I?

his church is Grace Seattle, part of the PCA. http://www.religioustolerance.org/hom_pcia1.htm
no wonder Dan makes him twitchy.
Dan, i think you should walk your dog near the church on Sundays.

Yeah, the lj guy is a god squad member but, to give him credit, he doesn't really say why he wants Dan to go away. For lj guy, Dan is some kind of mild menace. In the comic strip version, lj guy would turn corner, see Dan walking his way and exclaim a catchphrase in the final panel. He's just being silly, no?

Awe, when I lived in Seattle I'd see you, Dan, at Ballet all the frickin time. It always made me REALLY happy, and I'd have to control myself to not shout "I love you!" whenever you walked in the door. Awe.

The crucial question of whether Dan followed (as per an earlier Slog debate) the "proper LJ etiquette" and emailed the user in question about linking to his blog remains unanswered!!

Aww Dan, All the fanboys are cumming out to say hi. How adorable. Aren't you just swelling with pride? All because you know how to describe sodomy in a way that appeals to the disaffected high school student. How quaint.

A veritable who's who eats at Ballet, it's great. Best non-thai-place curry EVAR.

Ecce Homo = Bonzai That said, dude is lame. And why does god boy have a link to USE on his page? Gross. Also, dear god dude (aka bonzai, aka ecce) please leave Seattle, or at the very least Capitol Hill. kthxbai

Where is your proof of MSG usage?
Posted by stinkbug on October 14, 2008 at 3:55 PM

40 My guess is that I have lived here a hell of a lot longer than you have. Plus, I lived on capital hill for so long, I probably know a couple of you assholes personally. However, the young gay contingent that has moved in with the stick up their ass ain't my scene. I met Dan on more than a few occasions back in the mid 90's, a few of which I have mentioned. But they were all when he still liked dressing in drag.

@42: A long time, like...9 years?!? <-more proof! Do you also like beer, rain and water? LOLZ.

#43 Like since the late 80's. You? How long you been out of the Renton Highlands sista? Aight?
Posted by ecce homo on October 14, 2008 at 4:34 PM

@44: Oh Ecce...I guess you can call me 'sista' or use words like 'aight' as long as this is 1993 and I am dressed like the girls from TLC. Wait.
Posted by Original Monique on October 14, 2008 at 4:42 PM

@45, "capital hill": HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!! Personally, FWIW, I've lived on Capitol Hill on and off since May 1988,and while it's long been, unfortunately, a magnet for haters, it's also long been, fundamentally, a home for lovers. So how the heck have you survived here so long? Just askin'.
Posted by Cookie W. Monster on October 14, 2008 at 4:49 PM

Sorry, OM, I meant, of course, @42. Oopsie!

Wow... I had no idea that a misspelling could cause you so much joy! You should read my other posts cause I don't be spell checkin and I could care less.. So go fuk yerself. And I ain't no hater. I just think Dan gives fags a bad name. He DEFINATELY give people the WRONG impression about gay parents, and his life choices given his "family" are extremely questionable. So toss my salad.
Posted by ecce homo on October 14, 2008 at 6:21 PM

@44: He says "aight" because he's dressed like the girls from TLC circa 1993. And hating on the Renton Highlands? Understandable, but way to out your roots, sweetie.

Oh man. This reminds me of when I was I was a member of a choir at a small Texas university. There was this openly gay guy named Jonathan and this other dude named Matt who made a point of vociferously HATING Jonathan at every possible opportunity. Guess who's out of the closet now and is totally embarrassed that he was such a dick in college?! Maybe Banzai will come out one day, or maybe he'll stay in and clandestinely fondle boys on church-sponsored camping trips until someone squeals. Either way, doesn't it make you feel good to know that you're past all that self-hating bullshit?

heh...there is a comment on that guy's hate page where someone is wondering who dan is...and they ask if he is the guy from a talk show called SAVAGE NATION and continues to say, you know the really conservative guy?! lol Just thought that was funny. Dan have you ever been confused for a really conservative talk show host???
