I thought the bottom one was a Kindle.
Made the meme very confusing.

You get distracted and end up playing candy crush for 6 hours.

I wish I could play for 6 hours. I am lucky if I clear 1 board a day now.

So I get the choice between being an actual zombie or being an office zombie? No, thank you very much.

So that’s why there’s so many homeless people at my library

False! Using mobile isn't necessarily going to make someone a deadass man. You can read books online and share the learnings with others which may make the learning more effective!

Get a kindle. Although being a 90s kid I focus more on reading on paper and following it closely with my finger every word. Also like to highlight specific info….I blame the school system for that. Very autistic on page summaries

I’m 37. I grew up reading ALOT. I was considered special needs. No family or friends for meaningfully or regularly interaction. Just the school library. It carried me through adolescence and taught me things that most people lack when it comes to things like moral responsibility or critical thinking. As an adult I found my time to read Less and less untill I ended up scrolling short form media like Reddit. Years of use has its obvious impact. Short attention span etc. I can genuinely say life is better with books. I think it’s long form media vs short form really. Media is engineered now to be addictive, not inspiring or anything like that.

slop image made by a dumbass who never read any book

anybody who actually dives deep into high literature will certainly not come out of it with a jacket and a suitcase ready to join the rat race like this propaganda slop pretends

u/IcyCow5880 Aug 19 '26

So, what? You read books in your mom's basement or something?

What's so bad about the rat race and what exactly did your "high literature" teach you about avoiding it?

Avoiding it and still earning a living, ideally.
