    Absolutely. There’s way too many blithering idiots online. We made the web way too accessible to them back in the ‘90’s.

    And if idiots don’t get challenged, you run the risk of them thinking they’re actually right. And that’s very, very dangerous.

    I will admit the only reason I attempt to verbally correct them is because I don’t have access to a Reaper drone to shove a Flying Ginsu missile up their ass.


  • Yeah. If anything, admitting that you’re an avid reader will have people saying “You think you’re better than me because you read?” Or some other dismissive comment regarding people who enjoy books.

    So I’ve personally chosen to absolutely agree to that question: people who read are better than people who don’t.

    And it doesn’t even need to be boring books. Yes, I will even count comic readers amongst our reading brethren. Anyone who reads with actual intent is alright in my book 😉
