How many times have you heard that tv and computers and phones are making us stupid? And that you should read a book instead, make yourself smarter.
But aren't most books just escapism too? Sure you can read educational things in books, but you can read educational things on your phone, computer, or see them on tv too. I'm pretty sure that when books were becoming popular and easy to make, people were criticized for staying inside and reading all day. They should go out and live life instead of keeping their nose shoved in book after book.
I can't wait till I'm old so I can tell my grand kids to stop doing _____ and go play some video games.
