> Thank God there are enough people who easily read 100+ books a year

In my anecdotal experience, a lot of such people don't really read 100+ books; they go over the letters of 100+ books.

I'm not here to judge though, do whatever floats your boat. Personally, I feel a lot of the "100+ books a year" appeal is in the social aspect of "look at me, I am smart."

Hey, opinion read and accepted. I did check up and see that you mostly post bitter comments. I hope and wish that your actual life is way better, experienced with ups and downs, and have exciting things happening.

Well, I might have done a lot more other things than boasting around on social media about the number of books I read. We were discussing books here, and I was just delighted that I stumble on others reading more than me.

[Redacted] Sigh!

This is totally unrelated to the discussion. What's the point to boast whatever volunteering you do to counter the fact that someone said you were boasting in the first place?

I wanted to respond, but between listing personal accomplishments and personal attacks, there wasn't much to respond to.

Maybe just that what you consider bitter I consider quite matter of fact. This is a cultural difference; if you work with Europeans, you'll encounter it a lot more.

Ah! Thanks for the cultural heads up. This will help us when hiring and working with everyone from everywhere including the Europeans.

With all due respect, I don't think your comment adds much informarion or discussion value, just a bitter aftertaste. You might want to consider deleting it.

I'm honestly not sure why you perceive the comment as bitter. In my mind, it's a simple and dry observation; nothing more, nothing less.

What it adds to the discussion is raising the question "why would you want to read 1000+ books a year?"

Finally, I'm not sure why I would delete the comment. If it makes you uncomfortable, I'm afraid that's on you...
