Can't they just fucking read AND comprehend.

If people would not just read things but also use some brain power to comprehend the words they just read, then the world would be a few percentage points smarter overall.

Also while they are at it, observe the world you are living in. People ask stupid questions all the time because they don't open their eyes and take in the world for a few seconds. "where is the bathroom?" As they ignore the sign. "What time does the bus come?" As they ignore the printed schedule. "How do you open this hatch?" As the arrows point to the handle.

I've honestly been astounded at how much of the population appears to be functionally illiterate. You tell them how to spell a url and they're more likely to just hand you the phone because that's hard.

I sometimes wonder if that'll be what's left - illiterate masses cared for by a few not-quite-dumb bastards that can work a can opener or read the instructions on the pump.

At the end of the day, we're all just out for ourselves. There aren't any (or many) truly selfless acts.

Every favor comes with some sort of price. Which is why I never ask of anything from anyone and I hate when people ask anything of me.

Culture is generally very low, look how people use their fucking smartphones.

I witnessed people watching tok tok shorts with their speakers blasting low quality audio on repeat in the following situations:

when hanging out with a group of friends
in the bus/tram/commuter train
THE FUCKING CINEMA

Why can't people just use headphones?

Narcissism. I don’t give a fuck about your vacation. Or your dinner. Or that your kid won the spelling bee. No, I don’t want to see your facetube or insta or whatever the fuck. Go find your validation in something real.
