`` DO NOT READ ME!'' 
 
 The letters sat there, fat and heavy on the post it note. In contrast, the post it note perched there delicately on top of the paperback book, fluttering lazily at a puff of breath. There were a few heavy lines rubbed angrily underneath `` READ'' as if it knew whoever ran across this note would be a fuckin' idiot. 
 
 I wrinkled my nose. Maybe I was an idiot, but honestly, who listens to post it notes? They do n't even have the ability to permanently stick. I peeled off the offending note and looked curiously at the book. 
 
 It was thin. And floppy. And maybe a little bit patronizing. 
 
 It was filled with rules and stipulations. I flipped through it idly, looking at diagrams and charts. Every other word was a `` NO'' or a `` NOT''. Though sometimes the author got lazy and a contraction like `` DO N'T'' slipped through. 
 
 I tossed the little book back down on the ground and ruffled through the box. Curiously, I picked up my birthday present. My sister sent it to me as a gag gift, because she really does n't know any better. I glanced at her note that was stuffed into the box, written in her curvy hand: `` Haha! I thought you would like this. It transports you into your favorite books. I know how much you love reading!!! XOXO!'' 
 
 Triple exclamation marks. She really likes pointing out my dyslexia, that bitch. 
 
 Delicately, I settled the device on my head. A little shield popped down, protecting me from the outside world with all its soul crushing reality. A small voice pipped up in my ear, `` Hello! Welcome to the super Readalities Goggles! To get started, pick up your favorite book and start reading! You will quickly be transported to your faaaaaaavorite world! Yippee!'' 
 
 I winced at the chirpy voice, and glance around my room, ignoring my new headgear as it prattled on. I did n't have very many books on hand. In fact, the only one I knew I had was... My eyes drifted downwards. 
 
 The voice concluded, `` Just remember, do n't be fool and do n't read *that*. You'll neeeeeeever return! You have been warned! You ca n't sue us! Over'n' out!'' 
 
 Well, I do n't own books and I am not allowed to read *that*. With a sigh, I reached up to pull the Readalities Goggles off my head. But then I stopped. 
 
 Seriously. What is the worse that can happen? It's just a *book*. I really wanted to see if this headgear could do what it claimed it could do. 
 
 I picked up the thin book and flipped to the first page. 
 
 *Chapter One* 
 
 *Welcome to Readalities Goggles! Are you ready for fun and adventure? * 
 
 Sure? 
 
 *Do you love books? * 
 
 Uh, not really? 
 
 *Bet you ca n't wait to learn more about Readalities Goggles! * 
 
 Ok. 
 
 Suddenly, I felt a sinking sensation and blinding light caught me from all sides. With a sickening thud, I landed in a white void. I blinked, uncertainly, and then squinted. In the horizon, a short, squat blocky figure jerkily made its way towards me. With a thunderous stomp, it stopped in front of me to wave excitedly with its solid, black, stick arm. 
 
 Amazed, I rose my hand in greeting and wiggled my fingers. 
 
 The figure nodded, and a speech bubble popped up over its head. 
 
 `` WARNING: DO NOT READ THIS MANUAL WHILE DRIVING A MOTORIZED VEHICLE.'' 
 
 I nodded meekly. Makes sense. 
 
 With a pop like bubble gum, a small book appeared in the stick figure's hand. 
 
 `` IN ORDER TO SAFELY USE READALITIES GOGGLES, DO NOT NOT READ THE ENTIRE MANUAL!'' The stick figure opened the manual and exaggeratedly dragged the end of its black stick arm across the page. The stick figure looked up at me, its round black stick head bobbing slightly. I swore it smiled, though the creature had no face. Then it turned the manual around, clearly displaying the manual for everyone to see and beckoned me forward. 
 
 The room froze. I glanced around, and realized, the manual was waiting for me to participate. With a hesitating step forward, I cleared my throat, and I read the first line.

In the horizon, a short, squat blocky figure jerkily made its way towards me. With a thunderous stomp, it stopped in front of me to wave excitedly with its solid, black, stick arm. 
 
 I stood there awkwardly. 
 
 The figure nodded, and a speech bubble popped up over its head. 
 
 `` WARNING: DO NOT READ THIS MANUAL WHILE DRIVING A MOTORIZED VEHICLE.'' 
 
 Panic began fizzing under my skin, though I was n't certain why. How do I turn this thing off? My arms waved in the air, patting my head. I felt the device perched there and I tugged at it, fingers desperately attempting to pull it from me head. It was n't budging. 
 
 I looked up in horror at the stick figure. It was teaching me how to use the goggles. 
 
 `` IN ORDER TO SAFELY USE READALITIES GOGGLES, DO NOT NOT READ THE ENTIRE MANUAL!'' 
 
 Its head bobbed happily as it again turn the manual around for me to read. 
 
 It was teaching me how to use the goggles. I could n't take the goggles off because it was teaching me how to use the goggles. It was forcing me to read the manual to learn how to use the goggles! 
 
 It fluidly turned the manual around for me to see. 
 
 The black head smiled at me.
