    You wouldn't know that though because you've demonstrably never picked up a book nor educated yourself on the matter. Let me guess, overweight housewife?

    Read Shakespeare and LOTR (before the movies came out) in middleschool and other associated classics that my stepfather turned me onto along with a lot of biographies and nonfiction about the Byzantine Empire (The Fall of Rome etc) and some mythology.

    I was public schooled as well.

    There's an old SNL sketch where Phil Hartman keeps turning to the camera and saying "SASSY," but I can't go on youtube and find it, if it's even there. It's kind of an obscure sketch.

    I intend to radiate it, but I'm not intelligent enough to pull it off

    Probably a side effect of public schooling

    I was in my third year of college when the first movie came out. So ya I totally read them before the movies were even thought about! (8th grade)

    I'm so cool because I read things.

    Truth

    I was more trying to point out how it was a classic then instead of merely popular, trying to show how I had to actually make an effort to find interesting reads but you know w/e

    Don't get me wrong, I read a fuckton of books. I just don't understand why reading makes you "better" than someone else.

    It's like saying "ya but I started watching Oprah before she was popular!"

    Shit's entertainment(books that is), extermely good entertainment, but entertainment nonetheless.

    I was public schooled in Australia, we read all sorts of awesome books; lots of great English literature, Austen, Bronte, Shakespeare, Hardy, Dickens, some American stuff too, I loved To Kill a Mockingbird I'd mention all the Aussie fiction but you've probably never heard of anything

    Honestly, it's not that reading makes you better than someone else

    Any fucker can read Cat in the Hat or Twilight (these are compared on the same level on purpose)

    Reading Shakespeare or Nietzsche doesn't make you superior either.
