He founded Vice magazine and subsequently the hipster in 1994. He used to be in a punk band and did a lot of pAArtying before settling down and having a family (best of both worlds?) and he discovered Lesley Arfin and continues to write for oodles of magazines and streetcarnage.com. He invented do's and don'ts for Christ sakes!!!
Anyway, he's a libertarian, an asshole, and a father. Not to mention the fact that even at 40, he is still cooler than I, or anyone I know, could ever hope to be.
This is something he just wrote that I have been quoting from non-stop over the past week. God it's so good and so true. He is the libertarian/straight David Sedaris and proof that you don't have to be nice or handsome to win my heart, you just have to be an asshole that is way cooler than me.
So heres to you Gavin, my idol.
