My reading speed for a fiction book is 25 pages per hour.

Is this good for a beginner? What is the most common average?

reading speed is a jewish myth (like the holocaust) to make you feel inefficient at reading so you read less and stay dumb. stop worrying about it.

I read somewhere that the average is 30 pages an hour, although no account was taken of the physical size of the book, the font size or the difficulty of the prose.
Don't worry about it. Only Eng. Lit. undergraduates care about reading speed, because they have to smash through all of Shakespeare over the summer.

I'd like to meet a Jew. Reading such posts makes me feel that they must be the overmensch class.

I do around 120 pages/hour if it is regular goyslop, and 60 pages/hour for intricate classics.

you'll be disappointed, everyone that hasn't met a Jew thinks they'll like them.

can you download a browser extension or something that blocks you from visiting certain websites?

Do you honestly have a hard time quitting 4chan? What do you want? Just leave here or the internet in general? Because you can always find something else to do on the internet. It is not like 4chan is that fucking great.

And like an addict i end up uninstalling such plugins or un-doing them in general.
>>22245861
You're completely right..I should leave the internet in general. I was addicted to Twitter (for history/philosophy accounts) too but i somehow managed to kick it. But 4chan's more appealing for obvious reasons.

Oh it is the internet, I figured. You could stop paying for your ISP (if you are that desperate), it is not like you are going to die without the internet. I spent like a week or two without electricity and did just fine, ended up reading a lot of things using candles.
Otherwise, just find out what is happening, as in what you are supposed to be doing now, why are you here instead of doing that, and actually think things through. What are you getting here that makes you feel good and understand why you feel the need for it. Addiction can be somewhat complicated, but once you figure it out, I think it is somewhat easy to deal with. I manage to quit smoking and I had a hard time figuring out, but once I did, it was really easy to quit, as in ridiculously easier than I expected.

my phone broke and i didn't get a new one and to be honest it doesn't affect me that much. if you can deprive yourself of the internet for like a week you won't feel the need to use it as much as you do now.
