I just don’t understand mobile game ads anymore
Genuinely struggling to tell if the intended moral is: “women smart men dumb,” “twinks smart jocks dumb,” or “eat slowly or you’ll make yourself sick.”
I think maybe it’s that cramming never works? Like you need to actually digest content for it to stick in your memory. I could be giving too much credit though.
The website actually lists a moral under every single post. This one is about consuming information and knowledge and how if you try to shove too much info on at once you won’t actually take all of it in. The comic however just makes it look like people like to eat books.
If folks aren’t careful posting these you’re going to irony people into converting.
We don’t need more “sort of Baptists” in the world.
Eating book is bad for you
Father, how do I eat the book

How many jpeg compressions until the background watermark dissappear?
Speed readers will be like *I absorbed everything you did in one month in one evening - honest" smh
But I think some people might actually be like that. I dunno, I’m just a slow reader who doesn’t get it
I am reading very fast, with about the same retention and lack thereof as regular readers. It’s a simple speed advantage with me being neither better nor worse in retention.
I consider this a simple skill that’s useful sometimes. e.g. in exams I got a few minutes more than most other people, simply because I read the questions quicker.
But in the end we have all our different talents and aptitudes, it’s not a contest. I have a harder time copying what people show me physically than other people do for example. Other might be amazing at that and very quickly pick up something that is shown to them
Bókagleypir Hann Guðmundur á Mýrum borðar bækur, það byrjaði upp á grín og varð svo kækur. Núorðið þá vill hann ekkert annað, alveg sama þó að það sé bannað.
Hann lætur ekki nægja kafla og kafla, hann kemst ekki af með minna en heilan stafla. Hann er víða í banni á bókasöfnum, en beitir gerviskeggi og fölskum nöfnum.
Hann gleypir í sig feitar framhaldssögur og fær sér inn á milli stuttar bögur. Hann telur víst að maginn muni skána í mörgum við að bíta í símaskrána.
Hann segir: Þó er best að borða ljóð, en bara reyndar þau sem eru góð.
And for all you plebes who don’t speak the OG language of badass war poetry:
Guðmundur on Myrar, a book-eater by fate, Began as a joke, but now he won’t abate. Only wants words now, doesn’t care if it’s banned, Breaks the rule just to get a full book in his hand.
He’s not about chapters, a whole tome he’ll digest, Banned from libraries, yet he still passes the test. Fake beards and aliases, his crafty, sneaky way, To gorge on more volumes, keeps librarians at bay.
Thick sequels he swallows, short stories for a snack, Thinks his stomach may shine, with a phone book to attack. He says, “Eating poems is the best, they’re a hit, But only, of course, if they’re wittily writ.”
Takk
