WAG - Lightweights


Aww... The kiddies have headaches after trying to read Harry Potter in a single sitting. I'm so sad... Bah!

Stop your complaining. I read Jurrasic Park back in 1996 BEFORE the movie came out. What was that... 3rd, 4th grade? I don't have the attention span to work out the math, but give me a break...

Kids spend whole weekends camped in front of video games and you don't hear people arguing over the
ergonomics of the situation. The turning of 870 pages is certainly comparable to jostling a video controller for the same amount of time (the weight difference makes up for the extra digit movement).

I'd wager any crink in the neck or tired wrist from reading Harry Potter is certainly worth the effort (and probably a better use of time over sitting in front of a TV all day).

Consider that twangy neck a badge of honor kid. You should be so lucky.
