It’s just something you’re born with, sorry. Go watch a movie or something.

boredom is just your brain telling you that you're not getting anything out of what you're reading. either the book is beneath you or the other way around. guess which one i think it is.

-make a cup of tea
-have a vodka
-or a smoke

or the book might just be shit, if its an assignment then just flip to the end and read the rest if you find out it gets interesting later

A vermiform appendix is something you're born with, too
In fact pic related is not even that boring but for whatever reason I remained stuck at 1 chapter, unable to find the willpower to even open it anymore

and pray, what part of "passage" is foreign to you, anon?

it's not shit, anon, it's not even boring as i left the impression, the thing is (as i think, tho I'm not sure) that i have just passed 40 pages away from the most exciting chapter of it namely, the encounter with Mephisto , and perhaps I'm waiting for more. Even those 40 pages were pretty hard to get thru

Cut screen time.
Do activities that require high levels of concentration (like sightreading if you play an instrument).

Great observation and analogy, op. You'll just have to wait until scientists discover the part of the brain responsible for boredom and devise a routine operation to excise it.

>a part of the brain
>responsible with BOREDOM
Cretin. We were discussing attention span here, which, like many other genetic traits, is not purely inherited, but also influenced by the fucking ENVIRONMENT, moron. Take alcoholism, for example. Those of us, the intellectuals, the transcendent ones, who have, you know, actually learned biology in high school know that. At least now you know why EVEN John Green's Virchow references went over your retarded brainlet.
This. This is how much you value, pig.
Oh, excuse me, were you just complaining about the shit "rebuttal" you got only to show you how shit your "argument" was, dumbfuck?
Fucking dog. I wish I could smash your tete once for each word you said. Idiot.
