Tan Kin Lian was the fourth Tan to cross the finishing line in the all-Tan presidential election held in 2011.

He was also the only Tan who lost his deposit by not securing enough votes.

Here are some highlights since that fateful day.

- Questioning why doctors explain risks to patients before surgeries.

- Making Mumbai related jokes

- And putting out completely accurate polls

Now, Tan is back at it again with this thought-provoking question.

Rude dude

As with any intellectual undertaking of this magnitude, some of the comments got quite rude. Which led to bans.

But how would they know?

Through their gangs, of course.

And people, presumably Spanish geniuses, finally sussed out the answer.

But take heed, try not to be rude while providing answers.

Which, because the Internet being the Internet, resulted in this.

Dude, ban all of them.

Tan defended his question with this statement.

Which led to this response.

Whelp.
