Aren't they heavenly?

Yeah.

OK.

You might want to consider one, it might improve your reading comprehension skills

I'm not missing anything.
People who brag about not going to theaters or watching TV are pretentious as ****.

I'm actually kind of serious though, but I'm mostly talking about my douchey uncle.

Yeah tv cutters are the worse. They like to brag about not even owning a TV or how long they haven't watched or owned cable wearing it like a badge of honor.

Pfft.

GTFO.

I have a friend that I have to deal with her saying that constantly.

I just dismiss her as a hipster and move on with the conversation.

not that much different from each other.
What makes you say that it's 'evident to most' - I understood it perfectly and I think I'm in the majority. While we're getting technical what's with your odd paragraph choices?

I love books but cinema is the ultimate art form and to discredit it is completely ignorant. Those people piss me off so much.
