You don't respond to subhumans like this. It's an autistic loser LARPing online. Pretending like every second of his life is productive as he shitposts on reddit.
These people think they sound badass with this fake act of maximum productivity, but it's just slave mentality. The only person who is productive 24/7 is a slave who is monitored to make sure he never slacks off. The entire point of work and improving yourself is to live a comfortable life worth living where you can do things you like and have a family and watch a movie or do a fun hobby you like. If every second of your life is spent trying to be productive and your entertainment has to be education (like the documentary on fish is going to be useful in your life) then you are not living. You may as well kill yourself. But of course the redditor doesn't actually believe this shit. He just wanted upvotes and probably didn't get any.

>Watching movies is a waste of time
Isn't that literally the point? Why is this framed as a gotcha? Are people under the impression of you watch enough movies someone will come give you a degree?
>>
>>220720529
I don't need to say anything, he's perfectly wrong. If that were said out loud I would just let the remark echo around the room so he can tell what every person thinks of it.
>>
>>220720529
The reality is that most forms of entertainment are a waste of time by modern standards. Burgers especially think you need to be making money all the time or min/maxing your schedule. The joke is that someone who's dead broke or exfremely wealthy have similar lifestyles of enjoying leisure activities without feeling guilty, only the middle class is squeezed.

>>220720698
It's an autist theorycrafting a fantasy of what he imagines to be the perfect life where you just grow and make money infinitely until the day you die as a superhuman
It's not a gotcha, it's an autist NEET loser stuck in his own mind

Time you enjoy wasting isn’t time wasted. Why learn something when you can get dementia? Why work out when you’re going to get older and weaker? You can concoct all sorts of bullshit reasons not to do anything. Time is your most precious resource in life and it’s up to you how to use it. OP’s pic comes across as a smug retard as if films cannot be intellectually engaging and that there isn’t a mountain of trash books out there. People like that are insufferable and would likely fall apart when being taken to task for any critical analysis of art

You can't get the opinion of anyone who EVER says "I prefer to read a book" seriously.
And I'm saying this as a guy who lives reading, ive probably read a few hunder books my in my life.
People who say this never read. They don't have the brain capacity to differentiate viable and useful information from absolute braindead "slop" and think that if something is printer on paper somehow makes it magically better and more highbrow . You have get experience watching a youtube video, reading an article, playing a game, seeing a movie, etc that could have way nigger impact on your life than some absolute dogshit pulpy garbage thats not in any way inherently better simply cos it comes in a book form, I dont get this way of thinking

and yet it all boils down to spending hours on pixels. You can talk about competition, grinding, resourcefulness, etc. none of it is real and all that time is spent on pixels. Your KDR, gear, ELO, skins, achievements aren't fucking real. All that time spent on beep boop ones and zeros on circuits and not real life. It's not that different than shitposting on 4chan.
>>
>>220722060
It's the kind of person obsessed with "productivity" yet is completely incapable of actually producing something.
Documentaries are okay to him because he can convince himself that he's "learning" something. Video games aren't for fun, they're for "learning hand eye coordination."

I'd argue I've learned more from film than from anything else. It opens you up for new thoughts and thought processes. It's a form of philosophical rumination. What this redditor means when he's talking about "movies" is probably very different from the movies that I watch though.

ps. Everything is a waste of time when it comes down to it. Main thing is you enjoy doing it.
