Today, I finished reading a manga series on a website I go on all the time. As I read the last page I got a huge celebratory message from the website saying I was the first one to read every manga on their site. The website opened in 2011 and has over 30,000 manga. My God, I need a social life. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I checked this site to find out that my previous submission had made it onto the main page. This has been the sole highlight in my life for the past month. FML
Today, I enjoy reading this site and other people's suffering just to feel better about my own life. FML
Today, I realized that my social life is so dead that the only thing I do that involves other people is read FML. I don't even participate in the comments. FML
Today, I have been reading FML for 12 hours. FML
Today, while pensively thinking up my next awesome Facebook status over dinner, I finally came to the conclusion that I need to get a life. FML
Today, most of my day was spent repeatedly checking to see how well my Reddit posts have been performing as of late. I think I need to find a hobby. FML
Today, I have wasted so much time reading comments on this page that FML comments have become my favorite bedtime stories. FML
Today, I thought of this website for the first time in like 15 years. I wanted to laugh but now people just post actual sad shit. FML
Today, I realized I spend way too much time on the computer. I grabbed the menu at the restaurant, glanced at the page, and tried to do CTRL+F to find seafood. Geek coming through! FML
Today, I spent an hour deleting 70 of my status posts from the past week so I don't look so addicted to Facebook. Damn, I need a life. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

That's... Sad. But strangely inspiring? There's a hell of a lot of manga I won't read so good on you...? God even manwha?! Some of those are terrible!

30 000 in five years (at best). 6 000 a year. About 20 volume a day ? For each volume, you need to spend about 30~45 minutes. As a result, it means reading at least 10~12H a day. Not even considering the time you need to load every single page. Every single day for five years. It's either amazing/ or sad / or a very big lie... I hope it's just a lie... 'cause that's pretty sad.

No shame in being an dedicated reader, it's a hobby after all. But if you need to socialize, why don't you look for some kind of manga reading club? Even Online if you're too shy to meet someone in person.

I can't make it through a single page. I despise manga and anime in all its forms.

That is super impressive. As a fellow manga fan I'm proud of you.
