Maybe if they had a display on the back that showed what I was reading it'd be worth it to read a book digitally. But until I can both read a book electronically and be considered profound and deep by passersby (I like to sit down in the middle of busy walkways and read the densest book I can find. It makes me feel cool.), I will always hate that form of reading medium.
Just like that ****ing texting. Like you can't talk to me in person even though you're in New York and I'm in California? Or even on the phone even though your wife is giving birth? Come on dude, shove that text you're sending up your ass. They say these devices bring us closer together but I think they're pushing us apart. They should call it the ANTI-social media, right?
