At a club having a solitary lunch with a book and people are giving me odd looks. One guy even stopped at my table for 10 seconds, mouth agape, as if I was committing an indecent act. What the fuck? ๐Ÿค”

@roseg What was the Name of the Book? Something Controversial?

@roseg Slightly different setting, different gender...but airport security (back then) advised me I was stopped for further checking as I was carrying a (nondescript) book...risk factor +

@roseg You werenโ€™t glued to a phone screen, they probably wondered what the strange thing was.

@roseg but if you were swiping your phone no would would blink an eyelid... I seriously think many are devolving as opposed to evolving! I get the same looks when i pull a book out of my bag and read on public transport ...

@roseg I tried reading a book in a pub in the 90s while waiting for my sister to finish work. A bloke literally abused me for being so rude as to read a book in a pub.

@MsPraxis Yes I was surprised but the odd looks made me leave. Maybe because itโ€™s a public holiday and most tables are huge family groups? Weird.
