OK. Just STOP!
I can READ, OK? Everybody that wants to inform me, or sell me summat, or give me a new investment strategy....
MAKES A BLASTED VIDEO.
A video that often has someone drawing to illustrate the point. That was clever the first time it was done.
I kan rede. I kan rede gud!!!
I can read faster than you can blather and doodle. GIVE ME TEXT OR GIVE ME DEA...no, maybe that's overboard. I do not want to waste my time watching a video on my household logic. If you want me to listen to you, stop actively wasting my time. At least include a link to a text page.
No, I don't think you're being too overboard. I've also long grown weary of videos replacing text (and particularly videos being presented by commentators whose tits are bigger than their IQs*). It's practically reaching the point these days where Reading is becoming an elective in schools, and I don't want to see the situation aggravated by depending on video.
ReplyDeleteI want to thoughtfully pore over words (which often require more care and craft than simply reading lines into the camera).
(*not that I'm totally against tits, you understand. But there's a time and a place for everything, damn it!)
Here you go...pore...PORE...
