/lit/ - Literature

I had this, but my gf just didn't get it. I told her I like to read in my free time, and she must have thought I meant that I like reading fucking Harry Potter for ten minutes or something. She found it really romantic, and wouldn't stop telling me how impressed she was that I read as a hobby...until she found out that it's actually my thing, as in the thing that I do for hours at a time. Now she complains when she asks what I'm doing and I reply that I'm reading, or read for extended periods around her.

Granted, I have several hobbies. I love playing the guitar and I keep up on vidya. But it's irksome that I have to read at work now.
