You know it really has nothing to do with sucking at reading, people read differently, and not everyone reads at the same pace, and if they read at a pace that is outside their comfort level they do lose something in the process.

It doesn't mean they are stupid, it doesn't mean they are lazy, it doesn't even mean they are bad readers, it is just their brains handle things in a different way. While I get by with subs just fine and I can enjoy shows with them, I am not going to lie that if I can handle the dub then I will take that over subtitles, mostly because I can focus more on the visuals and non spoken elements of the show.

[identity profile] etherealtsuki.livejournal.com 2009-01-03 12:14 am (UTC)(link)
But that's different than what anon saying that you can't possibly see the show and catch the visual nuisances if you're reading.

[identity profile] kristenell.livejournal.com 2009-01-03 12:18 am (UTC)(link)
I am not speaking for the anon who got snippy at the end or whatever, I just don't think people should jump on others and say that they should just "read better", which is what I was responding too.

Although I guess they do act as a counterbalance to the original secret which is just condescending as the above anon.

If you actually miss out on half the dialogue (as in, half the lines, which is what I'm actually responding to, not the weird audio/visual information talk the anon got into) because you can't keep up...yeah, I'm sorry, you suck at reading. It's not very difficult.

[identity profile] kristenell.livejournal.com 2009-01-03 12:35 am (UTC)(link)
And if that is the case, then just not sucking isn't really the easiest answer, because it isn't that simple. It isn't difficult for you, but that doesn't mean it might not be for other people. Just because something comes easily to you or me, doesn't mean that all people are like that.

And it might just be that way with subtitles for those people, they could be able to read other things just fine, but with subtitles that might be a struggle where in others areas it isn't.

'suck less' doesn't literally mean 'you are bad at something, fix that'. It means 'the problem there is on your end, not the medium's. Don't blame the medium or generalize based on it'.

[identity profile] kristenell.livejournal.com 2009-01-03 12:45 am (UTC)(link)
I can get behind that. Just, after working with illiteracy and people who have struggled with reading, your wording kind of ticked off one of those things in my head.

There seems to be a lot of generalizing on both sides here though.

Yeah, well, what can I say, I get flippant when arguing with anons and likely trolls.
