The notion of audio books is inherently laughable.
>B-but you can r-read while you're d-doing something else
Jesus fucking Christ, the absolute state.

They're good for visually impaired people, but that's about it.

Why not just say "laughable"? Why even bother modifying with "inherently" if you offer nothing to show how being "laughable" is a necessary, essential quality to audiobooks? I would agree with you that they're not real reading, but you aren't doing yourself a favor by pretending you're somehow superior to people who use them.

Where? Majority of posts here are calling OP ESL. You canโ€™t call others illiterate if you fuck up the first sentence of the thread.
