A New York woman was snapped doing some light reading on the subway on Wednesday, but she wasn't exactly absorbed in a romance novel or chick lit bestseller on her Kindle.
Rather, the commuter in question was caught on camera with her nose stuck in a pile of papers — that appeared to be several pages of printed comments on a Facebook post.
And the photo wasn't just snapped at an auspicious moment, either. According to Alex Steinman, who shared it on Twitter, the woman was very much caught up in he social media conversation.
Who needs WiFi! An image of this woman reading a stack of printed Facebook posts has taken the internet by storm after it was shared by New York-based social media editor Alex Steinman
Confused: Alex seemed to be very perplexed by the sight of the woman, who appeared to be quite happy to just sit and read the comments left on each of the Facebook posts
'A woman on the subway printed out 15 pages of Facebook posts and is just reading the comments,' he wrote, accompanying the caption with an emoji of a confused face.
The bewildering image shows the middle-aged woman, wearing an embroidered denim jacket, sitting down on a C or E train.
In her hand is a stack of white printer paper — which she took the time to staple — with what seems to be a long stream of Facebook comments. She appears to be totally immersed in whatever the comments are about.
With over 18,000 likes and counting, the tweet has quickly gone viral, sparking debate over whether the image is hilariously adorable or annoyingly confounding.
