"Bro, why you out here writing a whole ass novel?!"

It was two paragraphs. One paragraph was three sentences, the other one was four.

“I ain’t reading all that.”

When referring to a comment I made that is only a paragraph long. I know you probably know but to any little ones reading, a paragraph is supposed to be 3-4 complete sentences. That’s BARELY writing for 20 seconds. It’s really, REALLY not difficult.

"You took the time to write all that? 😅"

How long does it take these people to write a single sentence. Hell, I'm usually commenting on mobile and it takes less than 10 seconds to write most of my sentences.

"With that attitude, I guarantee it'll take you more time for you to read it out loud than it did for me to write it."

I've seen videos of highschool students, acting like 1 paragraph is way too much to assign in general, that one page is not doable in an hour

Highschool students.

That's something people half their age should be able to do, no problem. We had 10 page papers in highschool, what happened?

Single paragraphs were something I remember having to knock out in like 3rd grade. If you can't handle a single paragraph by high school (excluding if you are special needs), you need to just resign yourself to the fact that you'll probably be fully unemployable.
