Is it normal to be incapable of reading "walls of text"?

I literally CAN'T sit and read a "wall of text" all at once. It doesn't matter if it's on the computer screen or on paper. My eyes will blur and I'll lose my place in reading and have to start over.

Normal?

    Yeah, walls of text aren't great. I avoid them, to be honest. I've probably missed some decent posts on here which I didn't read because of large walls of text. That, and I don't really want to read everything here. I don't read that many posts here actually. So, of the ones I would consider reading, the big blocks of text are a major put off, and it's completely normal to dislike them. There are some things I see often online which are annoying to me, although I put up with them (memes, for example:P), but generally speaking, walls of text are not one of them.

        Yes but paragraphs are formatted differently via net next to books.

        • What does that have to do with anything?

          And you're actually wrong... all paragraphs are formatted the same way. Five spaces or a tab, then start typing...

          _____Like this. Because this is a paragraph, blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah.

          _____See?

        Aww, sorry, I just don't. I don't really get how they're supposed to be funny. What is funny about them? I'm genuinely curious, by the way, because they go right over my head. I laugh at loads of different things, but memes don't do a thing for me. I challenge anyone to find one which will make me laugh out loud, it can't be done:P! Although, one had a joke which was so bad that it did actually get a little chuckle from me:D.

        Aside from that, I could go into quite a bit of a rant of what I dislike about them. But I'll refrain from creating a wall of text about my dislike of memes:P.

            Ooh, out of all the memes, if one were to make me laugh, it would be philosoraptor:P. I'm sure I'll find one at some point.:) I just don't understand them a lot of the time.

    Yeah, they can be quite irritating. I lose my place easily too.
