I don't understand how ppl can be entertained by books, like... my brother was telling me how he read some book and how he thought it was epic and the best book he has ever read.

I couldnt help but laugh at the poor guy, how can u be entertaind by sitting in ur room for like 5 hours a day for like 2 weeks, staring at some text, who would wanna spend their precious time doing somthing stupid like that?

And whats even more strange to me.. is the fact that ppl keep books and read them more then once? wtf? , whats the point of reading a book more then once, thats prolly the lamest thing ive ever heard.

some ppl are entertained so easily, they could prolly watch paint dry and be excited.

because some people have this thing called an imagination, ever time you sit down to watch spongebob squarepants im sure your more entertained, since they take care of any imagination or brain work for you, so all you have to do is sit there and drool

but intelligent people can read a book, and get FAR more from any book in the way of storyline, character development, and setting than you would with ANY movie based off that book


now, leave the intelligent people alone, go play your runescape and watch your dora

I dont play runescape or watch television.

I just think looking at text for hours is a very POOR way to spend time to say the least
