I wish people would stop discussing hipsters. It's really irrelevant.

Because he uses our imageboard as his viral marketing toilet. Because he's posted more here than anyone in the past year, but still plays his little charade where "it's not me lol!". Because he's confused being annoying with "forcing people to have an opinion".

i've always felt like Tao Lin's public persona is pretty integral to what he's doing in his work, actually. Like, it's part of his artistic vision, his intent. The same motives are at work in his novels and his public actions.

yeah
