>So the world's foremost literary critic can see talent in Lin That's not how I read that at all kek
Elijah Cook
that quote to me seems as if he's calling Lin immature
Thomas Lewis
lmao tao lin is too old to be producing the kind of shit he does. it seems aimed at teenagers and really early 20 somethings. he will be remember for his childish bullshit. lel
Isaiah Adams
Yeah, it definitely seems as if he's saying that Tao Lin is grasping toward his youth without realizing that his adolescence has long faded, and that this attempt to hearken back to his youth is slowly degrading the maturity that should come with age.
Nolan Johnson
>the fact that he even said anything about him
Elijah Gomez
tao lin confirmed is canon
Ian King
is this an inb4 or is this just damage control, I can't even tell anymore
Jaxon Martin
>taking art critics seriously >at all
Thomas Myers
Neither.
Adam Green
Yeah, I should really stop listening to Bloom and start following the opinions of the teenagers and wannabe losers of Veeky Forums. Much better!
Joseph Watson
following the opinions of either is equally as faggy
Thomas Cox
>how old he is already As in, he's not creating anything new, we're already bored and we've seen this and moved on Or He's too old (age-wise) to be producing work as immature (?) as he seems to be doing, Or He's more experienced than he knows and could be doing great things
>how young he is still going to be As in, he's not going to mature
Can't think of any other meanings for that. Really doesn't seem like a complement, does it?
Haven't read lin yet btw
Oliver Watson
my sides
Easton Moore
No, Bloom has the credentials and oeuvre to substantiate his opinions while most of Veeky Forums is akin to you, ignorant.
Parker Gomez
or Bloom is aptly praising Lin as both wise (old) and young (timeless)
it's beautiful and makes me want to read him desu
Bentley Wright
well I can tell that you've mastered the art of talking without really saying anything. have anything to add?
Aaron Hill
When the fuck did Bloom comment on Tao?
Lincoln Rodriguez
xD
Christian Davis
Keep up with the news in literature, slow poke. We're not here to spoon feed you.
Jason Campbell
>Tao Lin >wise and timeless
Alright, this thread has gone too far. Let's reign it in, guys.
Carson Ross
damn, you're starting to remind me of when I was 15 with all these passive-aggressive non-responses. keep it up!
Jeremiah Lopez
>Tao Lin and Harold Bloom now that's what i call a shitpost bargain
Brandon Perez
great contribution tardis
Chase Fisher
tao what do you think of all this?
Anthony Robinson
This is honestly shocking in that Bloom even commented on him at all. Or did he? Is there even a source for this or did OP make it up?
Colton Hall
This is not real, and those are not kind words.
Nathan Martin
The only source I could find was a comment on some random website.
