    man, i’ve seen people miss information that appeared in second 5 of a 20 second video, and instead of watching again but this time also paying attention, they whine in the comments that the information was missing… strongly considering purchasing crayons to draw things out instead of saying them, one more conversation with someone with no reading comprehension and i might lose it

      Expecting the general masses to read on the internet is where the mistake lies. People want to react and to feel outrage. That’s it. No one even cares if the thing is real.

        You only have to work at a restaurant with a “Please Wait to be Seated” sign to realize that nobody reads. Or if they read it, they don’t internalize it.

        I put that sign in the way so people had to shimmy around it and they still did. Baffling…
