Is reading fiction actually better than playing video games?

Jesus Christ I either need more of that image or a source right now.

Any kind of entertainment is a waste of time no matter how you cut it.. Dont try to justify which of the time wasters is better.

bookfags are just as bad as vidyafags, it's just entertainment and a waste of time

The plug is a Haka or a knockoff. The lingerie looks like the kind sold by Frederick's of Hollywood, but could be from elsewhere.

This is dumb though, lots of people draw a blank when suddenly put on the spot with a camera filming them

Naming a book should be easy though, that's no excuse

If reading is so good, why does it feel like eating sugar? I do it, but why does it feel like that?

If you're reading fiction with the intent of learning the elements of craft and character and plot and dialogue, because you intend to write a novel or short story yourself and are serious about it.. then no, it is absolutely not a waste of time. Most writers learn by copying others.

Vidya and movies, on the other hand, are more of a waste of time UNLESS you are a film student or some one who plans to work in the game industry as coder, designer, storywriter...

With those, however, you need more resources.. whereas anyone with a writing utensil and paper can write fiction from the start.

Not really, I remember one time in school in like first or second grade, math teacher asked me something super simple like 1+2 and I couldn't answer because I literally couldn't think at all, from being put on the spot. Despite the fact that I was actually very good at maths

Depends on what you're reading. If it's John Green and his ilk, then yes. If it's something a bit more literary, then probably not. A good novel is more than just a story or a time killer.

Well most people aren't like that
