How can you not love this man?

Mesh contributor Daniel Taylor is stirring it up again. People just love him:

“your a huuuuuuuuuuge dick face. i should go to ur house right now, plant a bomb on ur precious suv and slit your throat. fuck earth? FUCK YOU!” - Some Guy on the Internet

“This is teetering on the fine line between Emo Brat and Mopey Goth.” Entry

“Its cute you think you’re the next lester bangs” Entry

“Cry, little Lib. Cry me a river. Then bottle up your tears and send them to me, I want to drink the bitter tears of a crying, enraged, China-syndrome-meltdown Liberal. Oh, and in return, as I’m magnanimous, I’ll send you a packet of razor blades. Use them. In the meantime, if you have a girlie—and I’m just assuming, though what a woman would see in a gelding like you I have no idea—tell her to get really adept at using coathangers. Two words for ya, assbag: Supreme Court.” Entry

Today he was referenced as “eloquent and oft-quoted” (uh-huh) by Matthew Shaer on Slate, in an article about Pitchfork Media, which references Daniel’s manifesto, “Pitchfork Media Can Suck My Cock.”

Update:
Daniel Taylor Alcee Hastings responds: “Sorry Haters, God Is Not Finished With Me Yet.”

Mesh’s Joy Lian (Confessions of a Restaurant Whore)is performing in “Convenience”, a musical that was just extended six weeks at the New Conservatory Theatre Center (25 Van Ness near Market). It’s getting great reviews like this one: “CONVENIENCE at New Conservatory Theatre Company…hits all the right notes…profoundly delightful…delicate and timely…a heartfelt, sassy, and fun original score…a constant ride of laughs and sentiment…addictive tunes…finely structured…breath-taking and amiable music sprinkled with delicious style…terribly catchy…”- Eugene Lovendusky – BroadwayWorld.com

Looking at our Web stats a few minutes ago, while bumping Citizens Here And Abroad, I noticed that a lot of you are using Google Reader to get our updates sent to you. I clicked on the Google Reader link, where this video popped up, with, holy shit, the drummer from Citizens Here And Abroad. Well, maybe it’s just another guy named Chris that looks exactly like the drummer from CHAA, but we think it’s him.And we’re sure he’d be stoked that we’re posting this.

Wow. We knew Gucci Time was going to be fun, but we didn’t know that you all would pack The Rickshaw, creating a line down the block to get in and get the dance floor jumping like we’ve never seen before. Thanks to Trackademicks, Lemonade, DJs Disco Shawn, Matthew Africa & Ryan Poulsen and our Special Fun Ambassador Cims! We’ll post some more photos later.
