Just the other day, someone saw a pile of textbooks in my room and commented incredulously that I ‘still learn things from books?’

It was one of the most jarringly alien things I’ve ever heard, like being told that everyone has moved on from toilet paper to just using their hands, but I missed the memo.

A charitable explanation can be that they mean why are you still reading ebooks and not paper books.
