I can't remember the last time I read a non-fiction book shorter than 500 pages, which seems to be what you're describing.

OP is probably a fiction reader.

>he doesn't spend a year two reading three or four books
look, you've never read a book in your life if you haven't spent more than a month on that book, getting distracted, forgetting, rereading, all of that builds a unique and unforgettable experience that simply xeroxing pages into your brain won't capture. do you slam a dram of 32 year old Laphroaig down in a single gulp to get to the next glass of something completely different? no. this isn't a race. no one is going to put your final book tally in your obituary. why sully a long and beautiful world by reading it in two or three days? look. spend one month reading a book. make sure it's one you really look forward to. take things slower, you have time to enjoy things instead of restless consumption.

If you don't think this is literally the worst "meme" of all time, you are from reddit. And mods should be replaced just for not cracking down on it.

The whole pretending to quote something but misspelling it and putting le ebin in front of it and and an emoticon after it is clearly something that started with Facebookers. Already they are transitioning to this next version which of course is even shittier, namely 'brainlet'. The rabbit hole for this site's decline and fall is really deep. It's been crap for half a decade yet they've found every way to make it worse, deliberate or accidental, but nowadays 90% deliberate.

The people who make and propagate these retarded feels variants need to literally GTFO & KTS IRL ASAP. They're actual cancer and they should catch it too. Maybe they need a brain tumor to regrow their little "brain-let" head.The pictures feelsforsakeneds post are really how they look like off the Internet. Right now, you know the feels pic where he's crying intensely and grinding his teeth? Tell me that isn't this poster 100%. Just try to tell me that isn't him.

He's just so dumb that he first came here a couple years ago, and truly believed he was fitting in if he just posted that same meme you see on the front page of every board. Too stupid to figure out half the site auto-ignores those posts. So now that he sees he's only fitting into colonies of underaged users from other sites, not 4chan which he never knew the first thing about, the truth stings, doesn't it?

The strangest thing about the brainlet Wojak (straightforward form) meme is that it was historically preceded by the to smart Wojak (ironic form) meme. Typically, the ironic form evolves from the unironic one. My guess is that in a modern, politically galvanized internet, to smart Wojak appeared too "weak" and inoffensive, while brainlet Wojak is visually strinking and mean, yet lacks all subtlety

Am I the only one who forgets most of the story after reading?
I know the general "feel" but I can't narrate the story
