Discretion Please

I have been on the fence about e-books for a while. I’m sold thanks to my commute home today.

There was a middle aged man on the bus reading, I Love Female Orgasms: An Extraordinary Orgasm Guide. They say you can’t judge a book by it cover but I’m a firm believer that you can judge a person based on the books one chooses to read in PUBLIC. This judgment I did not want to make about this complete stranger but he’s the one going around declaring his inadequacies (my presumption/judgment). It’s like holding up a neon sign that says, “I’m bad in bed and think I’m going to get better at it by reading about it.” Because we all know that works.

And, not to be the prude here, but c’mon people, discretion please. Please don’t bring your bedroom into my commute. Buy a nook, not for your sake, but for mine.
