“Oh look at this guy reading a BOOK at the cafe, he must think he’s sooooo cool! I get he thinks a woman will sleep with him cuz he’s so smart and cultured.”
Or maybe my roommate is having their partner over and they kicked me out and I’d rather do this than just be on my fucking phone for two hours?
Nobody has ever confronted me in public but I see posts all the time on the internet complaining about “pretentious hipsters reading Pynchon on the subway”.
Posts aren’t real. Like the person who posts that shit probably just imagined a hipster reading shit in a cafe and then complained about it. We need to go back to presuming that everything people say on the internet is a pathetic lie until proven otherwise
I don’t believe you!
