Yup. My life would be a lot better if I substituted all my time spent surfing VGChartz for something more productive or practical.

One thing VGChartzi-reading has harmed is the way I read. When I read posts on VGChartz or any other forum, I don't really get deep into what I'm actually reading. I usually just try to comprehend the text in the simplest and fastest way possible. Oftentimes, I find myself speed reading through posts skipping through entire phrases. Of course, this shallow form of reading requires very little energy and attention.

Unfortunately, I've found myself using this same method of reading on other, more energy-demanding texts. I tend to treat texts intended for deep reading like its some other shallow post on a forum. Needless to say, this has not been a good thing.
