Anyone sick of reading things not on the internet?

I can't seem to get myself really focused on non-internet reading material, like newspapers or magazines anymore. I just much prefer going on the computer for reading things for some reason..maybe for the ability to scroll, or because generally the font size is bigger on here. Anyone else have the same problem?
 
I get most of my news and information from the Internet. I'd probably go nuts if I had to read all my books on the computer, though.
 
Nope. For one thing, I can't take the Internet into the bathroom, where I do most of my reading... 😛

Besides, I spend a lot of time reading and rereading things like The Tao of Pooh. It's much more enjoyable to do that curled up on a comfy couch or outside in a hammock under my favorite tree. The Internet can never take the place of my beloved books!

I'll be able to take the Internet into the crapper with me soon...Dell Axim with (in the near future) a CompactFlash 802.11b card.

LOL! Where there is a will, there is a way!

No. I enjoy books more so than the dual commitment it takes to be able to read an incredibly long manifesto online, while hitting my eyes with visine every two hours or so to keep from going blind.

Besides, everyone knows the internet is just a well packaged pack of cyber-lies intermixed with porn to keep those of us with nervous fingers, interestedly fixated.

I hate reading books/papers/zines ... etc that are NOT on the monitor ... probably Partly because I like my room dark ... and the only source of light I use are my monitors
