nice.
Tao, i'd like to buy two of your books and in so doing, help with your cashflow problem (though, the motivation, really, is to read them).
which ones would you 'recommend' (as you say) if you were to keep in mind that 1) i have not read any 2) more [purchases] are to likely follow?
@MNN Bed, all day every day
i looked at your post.
give me your monies.
@m.n.n. 'sfaa' and 'bed' maybe
tao, i'll paypal you 10 bucks (12 american) for a copy of bed. fuck amazon.
i currently have no copies of 'bed' available
it costs me $9 to get copies, and ~$2.25 to mail it
if i had copies i would sell you one though
i liked your reviews, partly because i had no idea these documentaries existed. the volcano one seems fascinating. the way you described the ski jumper's ability was hilarious.
I feel like I feel terrible and i feel like I want you to know that you have in some way influenced the chemicals in my brain to make me feel better.
I have left my hat on my keyboard for when i wake up in the morning. What do I want? I have read two of your books and I feel like they may have "crippled" me creatively.
I cannot write for my course anymore without being humorous and deadpan. I probably shouldn't feel crippled that you have dragged me into this niche but inspiration is a disease that I feel I should have caught from Hemmingway or somebody. Nobody in wales cares about Tao Lin, K-Mart realism or anything except the black eyed peas songs that are getting overplayed. Suggesting something like that makes me feel like a pretentious pseudo-intellectual.
@Judo-Kun
from reading your comment i think you have potential
you may be 'ahead of the game'
just write what to you is authentic
(the voice in your comment sounds authentic)
and wales is incredibly beautiful, i've been there
tao lin i screen captured a post that lists the characters of sfaa with their real life correspondences. can I use this screencap as leverage to gain something? or are you going to repost it soon?
@jk sweet
@judo damn
@anonymous i don't think i'll repost it, i encourage you to 'do whatever' with it
ok i was just kidding anyway. i don't know why i was being such a jerk! probably because i'm anonymous
