And are Dante and Shakespeare wrong?

>The stuff you read in school, stuff like T.S Eliot, is, for the most part... not good.

>all those things -- strict rhyme scheme, formal structure, cliché metaphors -- have been done. They've been done for hundreds of years. They've been done to death. They don't make us feel things. They don't give us anything new to think about.

Stop, drop, KABOOM!, baby rub on ya nipples
Some call me Ludacris, some call me Mr. Wiggles
Far from little, make ya mammary glands giggle
Got 'em under control, the bowl of tender biddles
Doc-tor giggles, I can't stop until it tickles
Just play a little "D" and I'll make ya mouth dribble
Bits and Kibbles, got 'em all after the pickle
I swing it like a bat, but these balls are not whiffle
Hit 'em in triples, wit no strikes, stripes, or whistles
I ain't felt this good, since my wood lived off a thistle
Sippin' some ripple, I got quarters, dimes, and nickels
For shizzle dizzle, I'm on a track with the Big Snoop Dizzle
Let the Henny trickle, down the beat, wit a ghetto tempo
I done blazed the instrumental, laid it plain and simple
Getting brain in the rental, I done did it again

Pocket knife crafted with Damascus steel
Watch easily I skin a gator like an apple peel
My IQ would lead you to believe
That my daddy used to microdose acid in my happy meal
Light blunts with the fire that be blasting out the back of a Batmobile
I actually have for real
I'm currently blueprinting a watch
That does more than just ticking and tocks
It creates a forcefield that's resistant to the pistol and Glocks
You can safely talk shit to the cops, I giggle at shots
I'll invent a form of corn on the cob
So you'll never need more than you got
Swallow kernels whole, shit them out, stick them right back on the cob
Rinse it off, having one is an unlimited crop
You better give me my props
I might be the most innovative nigga we got
I can hand carve a whistle from rock
That can make a sound in a pitch that can lift up a yacht
The fabric in my new cloth can wipe the soles of your shoes off
And make them smooth enough that anyone can moonwalk
Just had a new thought, never seen a pig fly
I should put cybertronic wings on a huge hog
Tell your wife I got a tampon that vibrates
I'll make a bottle of wine from one dry grape
My iPhone battery lasts nine days
I see music in tetrahedrons and sine waves
I use words as joysticks for mind games
My spirit is so much older than my brain
Best invention since record players
It's called a quantum synthetic voice replicator
Speech emulator, this ain't even me speaking
But I'm synthesized so well that I was never greater
I coded it as a seventh grader
The prototype was designed with the same tech as Vader's
Creativity is second nature
I used to blow up shit in my yard and upset the neighbors
Experiments in the basement and held the deadly vapors
Solar's easy, made a lunar electric generator
Mom asked God for a prophet when she said her prayers
She was pregnant seven seconds later

Why are women who are 'into literature' like this? Do they have to forulate some bullshit contrarian talking point to feel unique or something? Women are so soulless and pathetic, no matter how hard they try to look intelligent.

>They've been done to death.
Authors who are regarded as part of the classic western canon were game changers. They did things no other author before them did. And they inspired everyone who came after.
>They don't give us anything new to think about.
Actually the exact opposite. You can interpret their work different ways, which is why they're perfect for writing essays about.

Honestly this hag is probably one of those cunts who wants us to "decolonize our bookshelf" and complains about the western canon being "too white." I can't think of any other reason why someone would want to destroy the western canon.

I don't know but we read Prufrock in my English class in high school and me and my friend both liked it a lot. I don't see how being old automatically makes it bad.
