Wry and wise,
but also very sexual.

audiobooks are the best way to experience books because you can do something else with your eyes and hands other than stare at the page and hold the page

i think it's generally a lot easier to call physical books 'p-books', because they smell like pee and are urine-quality, and then you can just call regular normal digital books 'books', you can also call audio books 'a-books' because they are A-tier because they are even better than books (previously, "ebooks")

recommend doing the same thing with sports, esports are the real sports if you think about it for half a second

Why get dedicated e-reader pads? The apps work on the regular doodads what you allready have. Dark mode and brightness down away you go.
Buttons? Yeah i'd like some buttons on my gotdang phone too actually my fingers are fat and stupod.

Oh and I LIKE ebooks and I DO NOT like audiobooks. Audiobooks should have a full cast for all characters, maybe good v/a's could do several characters.

if you want to turn that opinion right the gently caress around, i highly recommend the Sherlock Holmes Definitive Collection (71h 57m!), and Volume 1 (40h 37m) and Volume 2 (45h 25m) of P.G Wodehouse. all read by stephen fry, who i assure you is utterly convincing playing a series of mostly upperclass britishers
