>read a 'classic' piece of post-modernist literature
>it's just some pseud narcissist using a thin framework of a story to go on multi-page self-indulgent and masturbatory philosophical digressions that nobody cares about or fully understands besides the author for 600+ pages
>everyone pretends to read it and confers with others who pretend to read it on how good it is

Furries are just homosexuals that get repressed into something even worse. You can tell the parents in the pic are some backwoods hicks so the kid couldn't come out to them as a normal fag. They share in the degeneration.

I don't think Tao Lin is classic nor pomo. I've never read him, but from what's been said on /lit/ he sounds more like New Sincerity.

I mean, if you're gonna rip someone off, might as well rip off the best. When I was first starting to write short stories I was ripping off Carver, Chekov, Joyce, and Munro constantly.

Barthelme sucks, although I am basing this only off having read Snow White. Possibly the worst novel I've ever read, and I read Robert Anton Wilson's Schrodinger's Cat trilogy
