"Real World" Kevin Powell?

This seems as good a place as any to announce that I am retiring as Taco Time For Mom & Dad. I had fun while it lasted but I can't stand to read BV comments anymore. My real name is Kris and I actually have solid grammar and typing skills.
Also, I was WEEMO FONTAINE: KING OF PLANTS
Thanks.

Nooooo! Taco Time, Say it ain't so! You should start your own Taco Time blog for Taco Time posts, but then I'm sure the same dumbasses would come to comment on your posts... do it anyways, because you rock.

"I can't stand to read BV comments anymore"
@Taco Kris - As a fan of yours, I'm just curious. When you say the above, do you mean that BV commentors have become more insensitive and uninsightful as of late and you can't take that anymore...or are you just saying that you don't have enough time in your "real life" to keep reading BV in general? Wondering if the negative tone specifically has driven you away?

BLAXBERRY FOREVER!!!
what about your party?

damn, taco time, this means i will stop reading the comments as well since I was only looking for a good laugh from you when I did. You rule, Taco Time.

@2:22
Didn't wanna write much more, but you hit the nail on the head with the "tone" thing.
As someone who created a fictional character for a music blog comments section, I clearly have no shortage of time.
Ok seriously that's it. Promise.

I'm Anon2:22 and will go down in the annals of BV history as prompting the last ever comment from Taco Time. Boy...I must really need to get out more because I'm so proud. LOL!

dude never said anything funny. not even once.

he's a far better writer than stand up comedian. his stand up cd's are sooo bad but his show is hilarious. stick to writing asshole.

If this is really the Annoying real world no talent writer Kevin Powell then it is a perfect place for Taco Time to be announcing his departure. Now when people wonder how is it that the music industry is so lacking in quality and guys like Dan Deacon etc get ahead they can just look to this thread. Seeing people laud the talents of a guy even Broadway Danny Rose would not represent is hilarious. I guess it is true when they say birds(losers) of a feather flock together.
So Taco Time what will you do now(although I am sure you will still be on here reading and making comments under a diff name or anon) Serious what are you up to next? Selling fruit and water on the side of the road?

Is this Kevin Powell gonna be the Democrats' candidate to represent that CD, or does he have any credible opponents in the primary?

What'd he say? The article I read wouldn't say.

Kevin Powell took at least $500 from my friends and I. Dave Chapelle never showed!!!!!!! I want my money back!!
Posted by Dustin Williams | July 9, 2008 11:10 PM
yeah. People waited around in a packed shit hole venue for 2 hours to be told that Chappelle missed 2 flights and wouldn't be performing. Kevin Powell told the crowd to sign their names on the way out and they would get into the next charity event free. People were surprisingly accepting of this. Pretty Lame.
