For me...my brain goes comatose while reading, but comes alive while watching TV or movies.  I like to watch for stuff in the background...stuff that doesn't add up...stuff that isn't right.  You know...stuff the people that go comatose completely miss.

It doesn't say you're unintelligent, it just means you're closing yourself off to a great medium for entertainment and avenue for broadening your mind and life experience.  
Wasn't that kind of the point of the movie...humanity got really dumb and lazy?

I haven't seen that movie.  By "It" I was just referring to you not reading in general.


That isn't to say that you're not really dumb and lazy... I have no idea.   ;D

No peer review needed...not dumb...just lazy.  I use my smarts to work less...and play more.

You know you're jealous.

I'm intrigued by your ideas...do you have a newsletter I could subscribe to?  :D

In all honesty, I don't have time to read much anymore either.  Between technical journals, online stuff, forums, programming books, etc I want to relax with a good remote control and watch....

True, but I could hire some one to write it all for me...and then read it to me.

To make it more entertaining they would also have to act it out - perhaps some interpretive dance
