Jesus Christ, I've been reading ALL FUCKING DAY, and some trolling piece of worm ridden filth comes up in here and demands to know why I'm NOT READING?

This coming from someone who just finished re-reading all seven Potter books before watching the last movie this weekend, with some Orson Scott Card at lunch break and a book on the history of William T. Sherman's march to the sea, I ask OP WHY THE FUCK HE STARTED THIS GAY ASS THREAD WHEN HE SHOULD BE BACK IN HIS CAGE READING DR. SEUSS.

Don't worry about being a slow reader. Seriously, I take around 7 hours to read 200 page regular sized text books. I know people who can read them in around 3 hours. So you don't read 100 books a year like some do. What difference does it make. Rock 'n' roll.

It's also "non-boring" books.

unboring and non-boring books are distinct concepts
an unboring book is clearly less boring than a non-boring one
non-boring books aren't terribly satisfying
so i might stop reading if i ran out of unboring books, too
thankfully, that's not likely to happen soon
