can you read TOO much?

>> No.15600236

>>15600224
Yes. I bet a bunch of tards on here have read hundreds of books but still can't get a girlfriend.

>> No.15600237

I sometimes feel that way reading some of the anons on here ;^)

Too much trash like her? Yes.

She's beyond repair at this point, just a meek, timid set of holes.

>> No.15600301

>>15600224
Yes. I read so much that I transformed into a book. Now I'm a copy of Arthur Herman's The Cave and the Light (mediocre). To post on 4chan I need to dictate my posts to my cat, who types very slowly. Don't let my fate be yours!

The only genre fiction worth a damn involves at least one Space Marine. Fuck this bitch.

pre-mass media (radio, TV, internet), I imagine that excessive reading was frowned upon as escapism much as its contemporaries.

Just dont read books written by jews or Shabos Goy and you should be fine. Also dont read books writen by liberals or leftists which is basically the same thing as above because they will poison your mind and you will try to reconcile conflicting idealogies which both have good merits but in reality leftist/jewish idealogy again is rooted in clever deceits meant to instill a mind virus in those who are exposed to them.

Yes, just as you can drink too much water and die. If you use reading as a coping mechanism to avoid your problems, then it is unhealthy, just like how masturbation is unhealthy in that case. However, if you can't find a satisfactory outlet, and you read stuff that challenges you, then eventually it will work out

this is true. i set out a goal to read a huge amount of books this year, and all its done is make me read low maintenance crap ~200 pages. shit that i look back at and don't feel any better for having read, but i just want to pump my numbers up, this is ego reading. still gonna hit my goal for the year, then next year i will start reading more meaty tomes.
