Boudinot's long-form has always been better than his short fiction, unless you hear him read them himself (the only funnier reader i've heard is David Sedaris). Boudinot's short fiction is solidly in the tradition of other irreverent satirists, like Barthelme or Saunders, whose syntax has also been similarly criticized by the more "literary" tradition. most of these are older stories anyway. Smith's review is like reverse clickbait. Boudinot seems like an easy target, so he's picking for a fight.
^ Ryan Boudinot isn't fit to muffle George Saunders' farts.
Also, I like the game @7.

My god the cliché is so recursive I can only conclude we all live in a meta-verse matrix simulation running on the AI of a bitter writer-bot from the future.
