People Say "Book Burning" like it's a BAD Thing

Now working for a book distributor, I'm developing an increased awareness of how many of you nerds weren't left smashed on the schoolyard good 'n proper.
Books were things teachers made us endure because they hated and liked to punish us. And yeah I sell them. I sell them for the same reason everyone else does.

But every day I see perfectly good, normal-seeming adults flipping them open and watching these 'books' for hours on end, just like it's a football game or something. I'll sneek a peek over a shoulder every now and then just to make sure I'm not being tricked -you know, like maybe they're watching American Idol on a concealed iPad or cellphone?
But no, it's usually just another one of those bookwatchin' cult weirdos starin at squiggly lines. Sometimes there will be a picture, but they don't move or anything.
No Kim Kardashian, no "Situation," no cartoons ... yet these bookwatching freaks just sit there, hour after hour. I'm squeamish, too: Christ, watching people do this to themselves is the equivalent of cutting the top of my skull off, and pouring in salt and broken glass.
What has America come to?
This is just plain depressing.

Just in case you guys doubted these books exist, I decided to link the pics to places they are being sold.
But Amazon.com made me shoot coffee through my nose when I saw this:
"Share your own images"
"Gift wrap available"
"23 used from $0.41"
"Want it delivered Monday, November 28 ... ?"
