"I didn't know you read books?" :angry:

Doesn't that irritate the fcuk out of you when people say that?

Just because they've never seen you reading a book before they are compelled to say that they didn't think you read them.

I often say "i didn't know you took a shit" just because i've never seen them take a shit

Ah,well .Just my thoughts for the day

Bill Hicks:

I was in Fyffe, Alabama last year. After the show, I went to a Waffle House. I'm not proud of it, I was hungry. And I'm eating, I'm alone and I'm reading a book, right? Waitress walks over to me:

"Hey, what you readin' for?"

Is that like the weirdest fucking question you've ever heard? Not what am I reading, but what am I reading … for.

"Well, God damn it, you stumped me. Why do I read? Hmm … I guess I read for a lot of reasons, and the main one is … so I don't end up being a fucking waffle waitress."

But then, this trucker in the next booth gets up, stands over me and goes:

"Well, looks like we got ourselves a reader."

"What the fuck's going on here? It's not like I walked into a Klan rally in a Boy George outfit, God damn it. It's a book!"

It was a miracle that they even RECOGNIZED a book...
