Cutting Books Down to Size

If you want to read a book when you're out and about you know from the start that you're not going to read the whole book, so just cut the number of pages you think you'll read (plus a few more just in case) and carry those in your back pocket. Easy. I used to do this all the time before I switched to audiobooks-only some years ago.

A 4chan text post jokes about physically cutting a book down to the number of pages someone expects to read and carrying the loose pages in a back pocket. The punchline is the absurdly impractical solution, followed by the admission that the poster now listens exclusively to audiobooks.
