In a sense, being well-read isn't something that anyone can do. Just like learning to play an instrument or speak a language, it reflects how much time you put into it, and thusly deserves proportional respect. And it can also reflect intelligence. I know a guy that can easily read a novel in a day, and can almost unfailingly tell you accurate facts and stories about the history of whatever you decide to bring up, completely out of nowhere. I could not do that if I spend every hour of my life reading National Geographic.
I have the capability to read and learn lots of things, but quite honestly I don't care much for anything that doesn't help me to cure boredom or find true love (which is really just a temporary cure for boredom, isn't it?) It is deserving of respect and admiration to be well-read, well-rounded, and informed. The issue is merely that knowledge of facts does not absolutely translate into weight of opinion. And also simply that not everyone wants that out of life. |

I spend a lot of time reading Where's Waldo?. I think that says a lot about me.

The fact that you can never find him says far more.

I wasn't talking about the prepubescent boy you keep chained up inside your mother's hope chest.

There's something subliminal in there, but I'm not telling what. That must make me an intellectual.
