There is really no need to be a jerk.

I'd like to grab a cup of coffee, sit down on the sofa, and scroll through pages, comics, songs, videos, or whatever I may have saved, and then choose the content that I would like to read, watch, or listen too. All of which have pictures so I can see the cover of what I am about to open up. Part of something that makes an experience are visuals. A page with just text seems kind of blah from the jump, in regards to this situation.

Why do people like coffee shops? The environment, for the most part.

OR..

Isn't the way Steve Jobs became successful was realizing that people didn't want to just look at text?

I could really go and on with examples.
