but seriously...the world is becoming a dumber place...ppl are not interested in literature as much as they used to be...they want everything to be short and sweet....they just want facts.😭
OMG! You're so right! Yesterday my best friend called me you and asked what you doing. I said I'm reading a book and she asks which one, "People, Cosmo, or Seventeen"....I kid you NOT! She actually asked me this! And then I said, "Sweetie, firstly no those are not books BUT magazines" and then I told her I'm reading The Picture of Dorian Gray and she asks 'Why, are you grounded or something"!! This conversation literally blew my mind...I so agree with no one appreciating literature! Seriously, it's hard for her to fathom that I could actually be reading Wilde, Austen, or Dickens for FUN!!!
Back on topic: I agree with your previous posts....everyone ones everything condensed!! Wonder how ppl back in the day sat through Gone With the Wind?!
