>>	Anonymous Sat Sep 10 20:28:59 2011 No.2070935 The only question is whether we are worthy of Tao Lin. He may be God.

>>	Anonymous Sat Sep 10 20:36:59 2011 No.2070949 One time Tao Lin, Homer Simpson, and James Monroe were on a subway talking about gluton free hommus when Tao reads a few passages from his latest book "Neon Jackets, Gameboys, and Brooklyn Night Clubs". Sold a million copies, no trolling.
