Hey so you know how we all used to love reading and we were like, The Bookworm™ but now we're all kinda just addicted to at least one TV show and our Percy Jackson obsession is based on Tumblr posts and vague memories from when we were 12?
*Shane Dawson voice* Here are some of the thEORIES...... as to whY...........
· The stress of life in general has literally crushed us and the patience it takes to read a book doesn't appeal to us anymore because we're so stressed and have such a small amount of free time.
· Everyone eventually becomes addicted to TV shows, we were just the eDgY kids who refused to or recognised how enjoyable books were, but only for a while.
· ILLUMINATI.
· We all started watching anime and it just escalated from there.
· We evolved socially and more of our friends watch TV shows like normal humans and they keep recommending shows to us?
· We got reader's block at some point, or couldn't find a good book to read.
· We've read all of our classic favourites too many times and they're not as good as the first time and that's made us drift away from books altogether.
· We got addicted to one show and then we kinda got addicted to being addicted to shows?
· Or maybe it was SuperWhoLock, even though that's dead (I kinda wish it wasn't because I got into it when I was like 11-13 and I was too late.)
If any of these were like, your reason then COMMENT OR ELSE I WON'T KNOW.
Thank you for coming to my TED talk.
