How beneficial is reading books ( fiction specifically ) ?
are we just wasting time, should i see books as something beneficial ? or just an other hobbie just like playing Soccer or Chess ?
what is the limit ?
is reading 30 mins of fiction a day more than enough ?

>>	Anonymous Thu Jul 19 19:40:45 2018 No.11488173 I haven't read any fiction since I got out of school. I never really liked it and sometimes it made me feel dirty. like some kind of voyeur. It's kind of like looking into somebody's mind and seeing their fantasies.

Here's a philsophical question for you: why is eating shit bad? Do you think eating chicken is bad? How about sushi? Carrots? If you answered no to ANY of those, then you shouldn't have a problem with poop. Poop is LITERALLY digested food with a bitter aftertaste. Nothing wrong with eating delicious poop!
