Reasons I do not like ebooks:

1. The books cannot be printed nor copied. Therefore, I cannot highlight or take notes in the margins.
2. "Checkout" time is like 15 minutes... I have to re-search for the book and find my place again every time I come back to it. (Haha... re-search for my research.)
3. It takes a whole lot longer for a page to load on the computer than it does to turn an actual page.
4. Computers hurt my eyes. Therefore, ebooks hurt my eyes.
5. It doesn't smell like a book. It reeks of... technology.
6. Ebooks are evil.
7. I do not get a workout by lugging them around.
8. Ebooks make me dependent on electricity. What if the electricity goes out?
9. I cannot flip through pages.
10. Ebooks are vile and deceitful. Yes. deceitful.
11. They cause me to become angry and waste research time so I can go write a blog about how I hate Ebooks. Now my checkout time has expired... again.
