I mean what the fuck, /lit/? What's so special about this guy right here's work?
Eee Ee-whatever and Shoplifting from american apparel were almost embarrassing to read, the writing style is almost pathetic; how in God's name did he manage to get a publisher?

>> No.2374576

I don't know how he ever got published, but the reason why people hype him so much is because it's OMG so randum XD to pretend to like a really shitty writer.

Saged for Tao Lin.

If you don't know what you are saying don't waste the effort in talking about it.

He came around during the internet era.
He got big because of the blogosphere.
No one blogs anymore. So the blog-lit authors will all die off.
Despite him being signed to Vintage he honestly wont be remembered.

It's a shame because he will take Noah Cicero with him.

Least it wasn't richard yates you read. I can't defend that.

I saw an article on HTMLGIANT saying that Tao Lin had matured with RY and that he had more talent than the rest of his cronies. It was disgusting actually because with the exception of Megan Boyle his cronies are more talented than him.

Here is Megan Boyle in her bra and tights as an apology.

You will never have sex with a 90s goth artist.
The closest you will ever get is a fat girl who maybe read Jhonen Vasquez comics in high school.
This is a sad truth our generation faces.

I had seriously kinky sex with a gothy costume designer. She was hot. Also, Ana Araujo, though she has gone off with someone old enough to be her dad. The previous generation gets all the fun.

I've never read anything by him, but I probably should so that I can cheer or jeer readily in threads like these.
