The ultimate Pseud

Today on the train I met a pseud who makes the pseuds here look normal. So when I got on I glanced at the book he was reading and thought nothing of it but 40 minutes later when I got off I noticed he was on the same fucking page. Why the fuck would anyone pretend to read?

>you've never spent 40 minutes on one page
you're the pseud

Taking your time is fine but if you can't read a page in 40 minutes there's something wrong with you

maybe something incredibly profound was on the page he was on and he wasn't even reading at that point, but in his own thoughts trying to deconstruct and understand it

OP was a pseud today

Maybe he really dislikes reading or listening to music but he doesn't want to sit there on the train doing nothing like a leering creeper.

It's similar to when you're walking around a big city and you put your headphones in even though you're not listening to anything so you don't have to deal with the homeless and scam artist time wasters.

There's no shame in that, I do it all the time. Sometimes even with a dictionary for the lulz.

Wow I should start doing this

maybe it was infinite jest -- he read the end note chapter that has an end note chapter inside it

could be pure coincidence, he might have just gone back

Was it "Critique of Pure Reason"?

maybe he rested for a bit with the book open on his lap, and you didn't notice

Maybe he read the entire book in 40 minutes and decided to reread it and had cycled back to the original page by the time you got off.

He may have spent 40 minutes on that page but you're the one who posted about it on a Fruitfly Wrangling Enthusiasts forum so who should we really be laughing at?

>cares about this

maybe he was reading Ulysses. I think I would have to read one page for 40min and reference a laptop.

>Maybe he really dislikes reading or listening to music but he doesn't want to sit there on the train doing nothing like a leering creeper.
looking out the window is probably 100 times more interesting than staring at a book you're not reading

maybe it was a porno scene and he just kept reading it over and over

>he doesn't stare the homeless down while pissing on them as he walks past
nu-males, when will they learn?

>that awkward moment when u ignoring someone and realize u don't have your headphones on

the only part i can imagine doing this is in the beginning of the oxen of the sun

>things that never happened

Maybe he had a stroke

My brother used to work in a net caffe.
He came home once laughing as mad, and gave me a pair of glasses a costumer of his forgot.
They were fake glasses.
