Well men, just said what MY OPINION IS, but besides being MINE, I think there are good points sustaining it. But what can I argue against comments like this?:

If this is your definition of reading, then I understand all your opinions about reading and books 😉
In a last attempt to make me understand, I am going to compare what IT IS FOR ME to read a book than listening to an audiobook: it's like watching a good movie, compared to watch a Marvel movie.

And with that usually comes solidity in one's beliefs, a willingness to state those beliefs, pretty decent debate abilities, and a lot of self confidence. Really, these are all good traits. But you don't want to step into the middle of them if you're a wiener. You seem to be doing quite well thus far  , but I was just giving you my insights since you are new here (welcome!) |
Thank you for your words, Haertig. Another good way to say a certain part of what you said it could be: "People in this forum shouldn't have such a thin skin when comments are said countering their opinions", but as I think it is going to be easier, I am going to have a thick skin 😁
Well, now that I come to say my opinion, and punched the nest again with a stick with the Marvel movie fact, I can go peacefully.
See you
