Well, let's get back to everyone's favorite internet subject: lolcows. If I have to be frank, this subject is one of my favorites to write, discussing several internet personalities who are famous for all the wrong reasons. But nevertheless, it's always an interesting topic to dive into, because you never know the full extent of the story until you research it yourself. Last time out, Chris Chan (born Christopher Chandler, now Christine Chandler) was the main subject when it comes to (in)famous lolcows. But then, came one man from Colorado, USA, who might be in par or maybe even worse than Chris Chan himself.
Say hello to Daniel Larson. He was born on the 15th of November 1998 in Lancaster, California. Despite this, he is mostly based in Denver, Colorado. To say that he has a turbulent childhood would be an understatement, as he grew up in an abusive and neglectful home, fueled by his abusive mother and a possibly neglectful and enabling father. at age 11, he was separated from his parents to live with his grandmother, who is also allegedly enabling him. He was placed in Tennyson Center for Children as a means of rehabilitation until he was 14 years old. When it comes to his mental state, Larson has "a laundry list" of mental conditions according to his father, ranging from ADHD, autism, intellectual disability, bipolar disorder, and allegedly, even schizophrenia. For years, he was taken care by his grandmother up until her passing in 2019. And ever since, he's spending most of his time jumping from housing to housing, sometimes sleeping at the side of the road, as he is effectively homeless.
Behind all those problems, young Daniel Larson still has some aspirations with his life, mainly for music and sports, but he is obsessed by the former so much, his other endeavors left abandoned to the side. He is also active on several social media platforms, most notably TikTok. His online escapades cemented himself inside the lolcow pantheon, similar to Chris Chan and Chance "Cyrax" Wilkins. There are two reasons why Larson is consistently trolled by the Internet, one of which is his music "career." Primarily, he used his TikTok account to document his escapades along the state of Colorado, all the way to California, and to say that those videos are pretty odd is saying it at the very least.
There are two main sagas that put Daniel Larson on the lolcow map, one of which is his aforementioned delusion that he is a famous musician. trolls used this to trick him into thinking that he is noticed by the biggest music labels, while actually, this is only a ploy to milk him just for the shits and giggles. The way this works is some trolls would pose as an executive claimed to be working with major labels who had taken an interest with Larson's music, which is as enjoyable as a big pile of horse shit. He would bite the bait and announce on his TikTok that he would be working with said label, who instead of facilitating his career, they would coerced Larson into doing some stupid and the most humiliating shit they ever pulled on him, and add to the fact that Larson himself is completely oblivious of this, it would only go well as a crazy way trolls would do to milk him off his content. Larson is also notorious for his NSFW contents on this platform, often subjected for multiple bans by TikTok for positing his buck nude contents, including the one instance where he flashed his dong during a livestream. I don't know what to say at this point, but since I've come in contact with degenerates like this, I'm not surprised anymore.
The second is his borderline creepy fixation on young singer Grace Vanderwaal. He first became aware of the young singer back when Grace made her appearance in America's Got Talent. He was captivated by her singing, and believed that Grace would suit him per his grandma's "wish" that Daniel should date her. It all started when Larson claimed that he and Grace are currently working on a "collaboration project", and subsequently confessed (this, of course, only happened inside his twisted mind). He then proceeded to announce to his fanbase that he and Grace were officially dating, but in fact, she hardly even knew the guy, let alone agreed to date him. This, then, emboldened the trolls to pose as Grace, and again, coerced him to do the vilest shit the Internet has ever recorded.
I did mention that Larson has a slew of mental disorders and illnesses, right, well, you can pretty much find every single disorder under the sun, ranging from autism, ADHD, borderline personality disorder, even schizophrenia. But that is not the only thing that Larson suffered from. His physical condition is not well either, as he spends all of his time in the day walking on foot, getting sunburn while at the same time, cared too little about his hygiene. And this is the same guy that boast about being a famous musician and dated Grace Vanderwaal. Sure, he has quite a posture, standing in 1.77 meters (5ft 11 inches) tall, but he's pretty skinny in that stature, only weighing 52kg (115lbs). As per the time of the writing, it is speculated that Larson is actually lost more weight since, counting to the fact that he is currently homeless.
For starters, since he pretty much walks on foot, he has some foot conditions like trench foot, which is what happened when someone's foot is exposed to excessive moisture for too long, likely got its name from war times, since trenches during the time were always wet. His ankles are also heavily inflamed, likely because he never stops walking, which in turn, worsens his trench foot. He has other issues plaguing both his feet, such as plantar warts and severe blister. When you thought his foot problems are bad, wait until you read this: Daniel Larson have scabies infested inside him. This particular condition is a highly contagious one, caused by a small mite named Sarcoptes scabiei, and it's easy to spread and hard to treat, often times the clothes of the infected is discarded and destroyed, and the person being put in strict containment.
His dental health is also as bad, if not worse than his foot or even his mental state. He is confirmed to have hypodontia, which is a condition that affect his dental development, and he has missing teeth due to this. On the other side, he also has some teeth out of position, and suspected to have an overbite, since in his videos, he talks to the camera with two of his front teeth showing, which is also have two different sizes, allegedly from unfixed crowding.
In short, the story of Daniel Larson is as intriguing as well as strange to put it mildly. He is in many ways similar to Chris Chan and Cyrax, but in a more frightening sense, since he is practically homeless, not cooped inside his room like the aforementioned two. From his social media escapades, his obsession with a young female singer, and his "music career", he is constantly being targeted for trolling, sometimes to the extreme extent. If I have one single advise for this guy, is to get off social media, get yourself a stable life (that means a home, a job, and a stable income), and for the love of all that is holy, get yourself cleaned up.
