how do I regain my ability to concentrate

you just prefer the idea of being a reader than actually reading; it's not an issue of concentration, but an issue of honesty

This is true, I'm a Pseud who reads Wikipedia pages and namedrops postmodern french authors to assure dominance in social procedure and water cooler talk

>it's not an issue of concentration

no, my brain has been wracked by decades of porn, internet and drug use

oh yes it's never your fault is it. You're just a poor tortured reader

well i am poor, and the things i've seen from my many years on the internet have tortured, even scarred me

all i'm saying is the attention span of a suburbanite will not be as fresh as that of a kazakstani sheep herder

all I'm saying is boo-hoo, read a book if you enjoy reading it, if you don't then find another book

stop making excuses for your failure to fit your faulty schema of ideal self
