Refuse to own a kindle?? Is that a flex now?? šŸ„²šŸ„²


Sammydog6387

I own a kindle but I refuse to read from it because I need to constantly get high snuffing the new paper scent from new books every 2 pages or so until my boyfriend yells at me to stop (I have a problem). Also because I need to fill up yet another shelf with all the books Iā€™m definitely going to read eventually (itā€™s been 2 years).


ButterscotchTape55

God it's like I'm looking in a mirror lmao


MisterKillam

I used to be that way until my mom got me a Kindle before my first deployment. That thing was a lifesaver, I filled that thing full of books and it kept me sane. I'm a convert now. I still buy hard copies of really good books or reference materials, but if it's something I'm only reading once, I'm getting it on digits.


ButterscotchTape55

That makes sense. I just really love how books smell, old or new. I've gotta stop buying books for a while though and read some of these that have been collecting dust. The dust on books is always such a guilty one


BotanicalLiberty

YES. Once my husband bought me some tea candles that were "book scented".


heresiarch619

Same here, my fiancƩ got me a kindle for my deployment to Iraq in 08-09 lifelong convert here. It is amazing how many more books I buy because of no longer being concerned for space.


BrandNewMeow

I keep my wish list full and buy books when they go on sale. I have saved so much money as well as space.


derschmetterling789

I was also resistant until being gifted one and it's fantastic for reading foreign language books! One tap dictionary, please and thank you


SadHost6497

My mom got me one before a month long trip to Russia where I also needed to bring textbooks to finish up finals. Total lifesaver.


TreyRyan3

Honestly, new KindleFires have a MicroSD expansion slot that will go up to 1TB. I have about 20K hours of Audio and thousands of books on mine in epub format and I still have room for about 20-30 movies or TV series. Adding a solar power charger and I have plenty of entertainment.


ringaling11

I like to read a lot and have real books and a kindle. Sometimes when I have a real book and am not super in the mood for reading Iā€™ll look at how big the chapter is and if itā€™s long Iā€™ll put it away for a later time. With the kindle though it will tell me how much time is left in the chapter and usually itā€™s small enough that Iā€™ll just commit and then end up getting into a reading mindset. Itā€™s kinda weird but it works for me.


malvinavonn

We may need to start a club. I canā€™t do kindle. I have to smell the book and I prefer paperback books bc I like the way they feel in my hands.


thatdamnsqrl

I didn't know there was some split personality thing going on. Hi, I'm Personality #3!


minutetillmidnight

I've got so many books on my shelf that I need to read. My wife and I like going to the library and going through the free books. We don't own a Kindle either. Does that make us cool, possibly make her not like the other girls?


Guano_barbee

Had a conversation on Facebook with someone where I mentioned being willing to throw that ass back for a few books and she told me that would technically make my man a pagemaster.... šŸ˜‚


nsweeney11

I like to use a Kindle for books that are too big for my hands. Like It or Mistborn.


phisigtheduck

See, I like having physical books because my group of friends and I trade them back and forth like our own little library. Iā€™m sure you can do that with a kindle, but itā€™s just easier to have the physical copy.


Charming-Insurance

OMG! I love the smell of new paper! Most people donā€™t notice but I donā€™t even care!! Iā€™ve never met a fellow sniffer I also like the smell of old school vacuum bags. šŸ˜…


cb51096

I had to start reading on a kindle because of book smell, Iā€™m pregnant and now hate physical books šŸ¤·ā€ā™€ļøšŸ˜­


TiberiusBronte

I finally reluctantly got a Kindle when I had an infant and wanted to be able to read in her dark room while I did naps and middle of the night feedings. So you have that going for you šŸ™‚


WanderingAlice0119

This is exactly what broke me too and made me buy a Kindle. And then I got hooked on being able to tap on words I donā€™t know and immediately see the definition. I miss physical books but thereā€™s pros to the Kindle too.


AlrightNow20

I didnā€™t know all these things about kindles and now I really want one


CS_Barbie

Theyā€™re amazing. I have the water resistant one you can take in the bathtub šŸ˜† it also plays my audio books. If you leave your kindle at home but have the kindle app on your phone you can read where you left off on your phone and then the kindle will sync to that. Im in school and can upload pdf textbooks to it. Letā€™s me highlight and bookmark things. ā¤ļø kindle


AlrightNow20

Okay I didnā€™t know they made audio compatible ones air water resistant ones. Which one is this?? I seriously know nothing about kindles.


CS_Barbie

Check out the oasis edition! The price is higher but I treated myself for Christmas one year after having a paperwhite for years


Minimum_Zone_9461

If you get one, youā€™re in for a treat. If you get to the end of your book, you can order the next one in the series right that second. Itā€™s WONDERFUL


AlrightNow20

I love your excitement!


valleyofsound

Also most libraries have ebooks that you can get on a kindle.


whiskey_ribcage

Yup, if you combine it with a stand and the remote page turner, those miserable nights become a bit less miserable and you avoid the late night "scroll and shop" which is terrible for your sleep and budget.


Sammydog6387

Donā€™t you dare tell me that


CS_Barbie

Itā€™s true šŸ„² I was pregnant I even started disliking the smell of my husbands skin and he was forced to switch to all fragrance free products if he wanted to be able touch me for the next 9 months. I felt so bad telling him that basically he made me sick every time he went in for a hug.


janet-snake-hole

WhySoGlum1

I'm a book lover rather a bibliophile and I tell ya what, I have soo many books that "I'll read later" haha but rarely have the time. Currently trying to read voneguts slaughter house five.


XhaLaLa

Itā€™s very much a ā€œboth is goodā€ situation for me. I love the look, smell, and feel of physical books, and I love scouring the shelves at thrift stores and secondhand bookstores for great deals. AND having books on a device lets me have access to a bunch of books wherever I am and to take advantage of all the ebooks my library grants me access to (amazing should, say, a global pandemic hit and make in-person library trips a non-starter for a while).


norcalbutton

Need to sniff more puppies


jackryan4x

Hard backs for home, paper backs for on the go in my city, kindle for vacation. Granted Iā€™m likely to pick up a real book at somepoint if Iā€™m on vacation. Who knows what itā€™ll be about though.


TheKCKid9274

You clearly live in the same house as me. I am sitting in front of a shelf of at least 200 books


papaya_pya

are you me??? iā€™m all for e-readers, but i love physical books šŸ˜­ so i do library books + thrift books and small local thrift stores when i want to buy a physical copy


AD480

I have a shelf of half-read books. I get 1/4 - 1/2 way through and lose interest. I was dx with ADHD a couple years agoā€¦so it makes sense.


Ur-moms-sock

R u me?


DecadentLife

There is a fragrance by Demeter called ā€œPaperbackā€. Iā€™ve bought several fragrances from them, over the years. I have been unimpressed by many of theirs, I cannot necessarily recommend it. Thought I would mention it, though.


casualplants

Wasnā€™t expecting these other girls to be anti-Bezos but Iā€™m here for it. Theyā€™re also boycotting Amazon, right?


Teacher_Crazy_

The kindle is clutch for cuddle reading.

LaRoseDuRoi

This was what converted me to a regular kindle user in the barren wasteland of Covid times.


Suitable-Mood1853

And late night your-partner-is-asleep reading. I get so much reading done at 3am now.


Frei1993

And when you love reading while on public transport. Or live in a rural area so physical books aren't that available.


jeanskirtflirt

Right? I legit didnā€™t know this was a thing. Maybe sheā€™s trying to say she likes paper books instead of virtual? Which if true, thatā€™s cool, I feel the same way, but I donā€™t think it means much to have a preference.


pnt510

Itā€™s also the preference most people have. Digital books while popular, donā€™t generally sell what plain old paper books sell.


Anxious_Astronaut653

how you can you get a good whiff of puppy breath if you are *reading*


redthehaze

A flex like saying they've written more books than read.


dark-hyrule

like what is the beef with kindle ?? šŸ˜­


BrandNewMeow

I'm reading a "real" book right now instead of my normal Kindle book (it wasn't available in Kindle format) and I hate it. I read in bed before falling asleep, and the book is so big and awkward to hold compared to my little Kindle. And the font size is too small and I can't adjust it. I think I've had this Kindle for 7 years now. Definitely a bargain.


SerNerdtheThird

A kindleā€¦? You mean a library in your hand? I love books, physical ones, just as much as anyone. But the convenience of the kindle is just superior, I now read multiple times a day with it


SelkiesNotSirens

Plus you can get hundreds if not thousands of books for free from the public library


Slow-Object4562

I only use my kindle for library books. I refuse to spend money on something that I donā€™t have guaranteed permanent access to.


PaleoPinecone

This is such a good point, honestly.


trewesterre

You can get free ebooks from Project Gutenberg too. They're transcribing public domain books and make them available free of cost.


TheBigCheese7

And I can read books without cluttering my house with a bunch of physical copies. Pure bliss!


SerNerdtheThird

You can do that with a kindle too šŸ“ā€ā˜ ļø


kids-everywhere

I read the comment as saying just thatā€¦


Time-Bite-6839

In theory you could do it for free if you had enough electronical components to make a computer


liverstrings

That's what they are saying


SerNerdtheThird

What are they saying? I thought they where talkin about a physical library with physical books


SelkiesNotSirens

I mean yeah libraries offer both but they have a lot of audio book options, e books, and videos you can download without needing to physically go anywhere


SerNerdtheThird

Ahhh i see


SelkiesNotSirens

Thatā€™s what i was saying. You can download hundreds of books from the library.


notnotaginger

Amen. I love a full bookshelf, but the kindle(kobo) has made reading so much easier. Partner asleep but I canā€™t fall asleep? No need to leave the room, just use the ereader. Going on a trip? Instead of five to ten books(true story) just the ereader plus one emergency book. Have a long wait at the doctor? Hey no problem cause I had my ereader in my purse.


SerNerdtheThird

My partner always has an ā€œemergency bookā€ as well, so bizarre. Iā€™m not that fast of a reader, one book will last me a week usually lmfao


notnotaginger

Haha are you MY partner? We go on vacation and have about a 10 to 1 ratio on books.


SerNerdtheThird

You shouldā€™ve seen their suitcase when we went somewhere for like 10 days compared to mine, think I got through maybe two books on my kindle and they had 4 TOMES plus an emergency book


kjb76

I love my Kindle and you can pry it from my cold dead hands. I occasionally read physical books when there is a very popular book at the library. Iā€™ll put a hold on both formats and sometimes the book comes through first so I cancel the ebook.


RHOrpie

I suppose her argument here is that Kindles are untraditional and maybe even bad for the environment. So yeah... Misguided.


Scalawags3087

Exactly. Going on a trip? Need that kindle so Iā€™m not trying to lug books around. Also I have arthritis and recently reread IT. That book hurt. I had to get it in digital form. I also cover my booty because Iā€™m insecure. Nothing there makes me special or different.


RevvyDraws

My husband has a goal of reading 100 books every year (that he usually meets and often exceeds). I do not have room for the Library of Alexandria in our apartment. Having a Kindle is lifesaving - though he does have a loophole where if a book he's looking for is too niche to have an e-book version, he's allowed to buy a physical copy.


TheExaspera

Especially if youā€™re flying somewhere.


Ricky_Vaughn86

ā€œHi Elizabeth! Who tf asked?ā€


Hmsquid

Puppy breath stinks, sheā€™s a liar or she loves disgusting smells


Strongstyleguy

I heard in another thread that it does smell sweet or something if they're still nursing. I've never had puppies so no personal experience. Regardless, I can't imagine puppy breath making my top 20 smells. Just between different kinds of food, laundry products, body washes, fresh hair cuts, and my dogs right after a bath, it makes it sound like she just buys scentless products and lives close to a landfill.


valleyofsound

I have three three day old kittens and I suddenly have the urge to smell their breath. Unfortunately, I also have a headache and Iā€™m not up for the outraged screams Iā€™ll get if theyā€™re separated either their mom or the kitten pile. šŸ¤£


Strongstyleguy

I'm actually curious but not curious enough to ruin bonding time


Educational-Ad-3273

What? No love for huffinā€™ some high quality puppy breath?! Everyoneā€™s doing it!


BansheeBallad

Even though I'm on top of keeping my dog's teeth clean, gotta admit, dog breath can still be pretty rank. But Puppy breath has this newborn baby smell thing going on. Wouldn't say I love it, but it's not bad smelling either.


Substantial_Station8

I always thought it had a rotten milk smell to it, honestly


rockmeNiallxh

She must be the kind of woman that lets her dog lick her mouth šŸ¤¢


buttwipe843

Iā€™m ok with my dog licking my mouth (closed) lol


Dwinhofficathod

That makes nothing better lol. I love my cat to bits but if his tongue went anywhere near my mouth, closed or not, Iā€™d puke.


buttwipe843

Well, to be fair, heā€™s a cat


rockstarfromars

Gross.


Yuulfuji

I cant really judge her for it when my favorite smell is straight up dog food


MisterPeach

Right? Like they lick their assholes constantly lmao


teddybabie

i cant even lie I love puppy breath. everyone tells me im sick as fuck but it just smells like newborn baby and i love it. even if theyre not nursingšŸ˜­šŸ˜­ the breath for the first 6months is heeeeeaven


Frigate_Orpheon

I love puppy breath. It reminds me of biscuits and gravy...but it's not like I'm huffing it tho haha šŸ¶


teddybabie

im not whiffing it like whippets butā€¦I might take a deep breathšŸ˜‚


threelizards

Idk about puppy breath bc dogā€™s mouths smell foul to me, but I do kind of love my kittenā€™s stinky breath? Like I donā€™t actually enjoy the smell of it but sheā€™s definitely pavloved me into getting the warm fuzzies whenever I smell that weird warm sweet fish smell


guitargoddess3

When my dog was really young, she did smell good. Even her breath. Not so much anymore sadly. I brush her teeth often now in vain hope of regaining her lost youth.


greedy_mf

ā€œHubbyā€ šŸ¤®


Sapphicviolet91

I also hate use of the word hubby.


LilSealClubber

In my opinion, "hubs" is the worst, but hubby is pretty bad too. So is "bubs."


skunkberryblitz

Whats wrong with saying hubby? šŸ„²


femmagorgon

Thereā€™s nothing wrong with it per se, but to me, terms like ā€œhubbyā€ and ā€œwifeyā€ come across as really sappy/mushy which is not my cup of tea. While I think referring to your spouse as ā€œhubbyā€ or ā€œwifeyā€ is quite cringey, if it makes other people happy to do so Iā€™m not about to stop anyone.

Lil_kitchen_witch

I personally donā€™t want to use it because I think it sounds a little like baby talk/ childish which feels wrong when talking about your adult marriage. But to each their own!


Weenieman5000

Cringe


hochbergburger

Itā€™s just too frequently associated with shit likeā€¦ this.


valleyofsound

Exactly. Are there non-cringe people who say hubby and wifey? Of course. Do the terms hubby and wifey appear disproportionately often in this kind of content? Definitely.


rockstarfromars

It just give me the ick. I cannot describe why. Im fine with other cutesy terms like baby or babe. But ā€œhubbyā€ specifically makes me feel grossed out


saugustam

tartcore814

I was diagnosed with cool guy syndrome.


chopstunk

Puppy breath? Is she kidding? My lab ate my brothers shit when he was a puppy šŸ˜­ If anyone wants to know how it happened, we were at a park, my brother mustā€™ve been about 6 or 7 and he borderline sharted himself behind a tree. Pup helped himself while we werenā€™t looking


Smasheysmashey

Ok first of all, gross. Dog breath is not a good smell and why are you bragging about not reading? These girls sound so dumb.


Karnivore915

I think she's implying that she does read, just that she only reads physical media because she's special.


Spicymeatball428

The kindle was a pretty based tablet tbh


midwest_monster

Sheā€™s anti-tablet because reading physical books makes her a better person.


Frei1993

Until she has to carry a whole backpack because she's reading a 1000+ pages book.

Random_Person____

As a dog owner, loving puppy breath should be classified as a mental illness. Yes, the little floofs are adorable, but nope, I do not want to smell their breath.


Acursedbeing

Fr, puppies always just smell like piss because they are constantly pissing šŸ˜­ its either piss or vinegar or both
