Ronin Profile: Lazlo

Lazlo

Let’s meet some more IMAO readers. Today, it’s Lazlo.


What’s the story behind your name? I am an illustrator/cartoonist; I Googled my name one day to see if any imposters lurked around the Gore-osphere. Imagine my horror upon finding a ‘movie actor’ with the exact same name. This ‘actor’ was doing rude things to all the other ‘actors’ on the first website I came across. I
Lazlo needed a new name pronto.
I used to go walking with a girl who had a dog that was half coyote, half God-knows-what, and I re-named it Lazlo because it had eyes that were yellow and scary to look upon. I took that name because I want my eyes to be yellow and scary to look upon.
Where do you live? I live in Camp Verde Arizona, about 30 miles from Sedona (just far enough away to escape the New Age vapors that plague those who reside there).
How old are you? This is Lazlo’s fiftieth winter
Tell us briefly about yourself. I grew up in LA, went to art school, got semi-famous in a Psychedelic band in the 80’s. Quit that crap, and moved to Arizona after my eleventh liberal girlfriend (AD 1990). I have since become a building inspector. I now go out with women that will cut you if you don’t behave.
How long have you been reading IMAO? I have visited every day (except St. Dennis’ Day) since I first saw the site about a year ago.
What’s your favorite IMAO post? Fred Thompson Facts! You had me at ‘Objects at rest better get moving.’
If you were to describe IMAO in three words, what would those be? Hot. Buttery. Goodness.
What’s your favorite political issue? My favorite thing to think about is the sublime and transcendent hideousness of SHE-who-must-be-destroyed.
Do you have a website? If so, please tell us briefly about it. I had a blog called El Bloggo Lazlo on Townhall.com but my awesome life in the crapper precludes posting a lot.
What are better: Bears or wolves? I like Bears. A bear will dismantle your car for a Fig Newton. That is the spirit of enterprise!

  1. Welcome, Lazlo. u r teh funnie, really, your answers are nice, dry, and witty with a hint of snark. Those of us the the real U.S. regret your having been raised in LA and are happy you escaped.
    Now, then, #1 and #2, if you will glance at the Ronin profiles, you will note that more than a few certified Ronin are … well-seasoned. We’re older, meaner, and ready to come smack you pipsqueaks down.

  2. “I live in Camp Verde Arizona, about 30 miles from Sedona (just far enough away to escape the New Age vapors that plague those who reside there).”
    It’s a shame they have to mess up Sedona with all those weird crystal and palm reading shops.
    “I like Bears. A bear will dismantle your car for a Fig Newton. That is the spirit of enterprise!”
    Not to mention that they will do ANYTHING for a Klondike bar.
