Most of you have probably heard of Dan Savage, that attractive gay man on TV who is always making witty commentary. Well, your wildest dreams have come true, mon frere. Dan Savage, the attractive gay man on TV who is always making witty commentary, is coming to U of I.
You can find tons of videos of him on YouTube such as the following in which he pwns Tony Perkins. Personally, anyone who is able to pwn anything is impressive in my mind, and therefore you should mark the event down in your little iBooks posthaste.
Here is the event info as stolen from facebook:
Dan Savage grew up in “a loud, argumentative, and very Catholic” family, and came out as gay as fruit cocktail.
Savage is the author of The Commitmen : Love, Sex, Marriage, and My Family, Skipping Towards Gomorrah: The Seven Deadly Sins And The Pursuit Of Happiness In America, Savage Love: Straight Answers from America’s Most Popular Sex Columnist, and The Kid: What Happened After My Boyfriend and I Decided to Go Get Pregnant. The latter book tells how Savage and his boyfriend adopted their son from his willing mother, a “spare-changing gutter punk.”
“If the religious right really wanted to stop gay sex … they should get behind gay people adopting, because nothing puts a stop to gay sex faster.”
In addition to writing his column, Savage is now the editor of The Stranger. He’s also active in theater, directing queer plays as Keenan Hollahan. Keenan is Savage’s middle name, and Hollahan is his grandmother’s maiden name.
“Dying is easy,” says Savage. “Coming out is hard.”

Now if you excuse me, I’m gonna go pwn myself.

If this were a game of Halo, Dan Savage would have got a headshot on Tony Perkins and would now be teabagging him. Utter pwnage.
