Has anyone else noticed a sudden lack of reading comprehension skills?

Just as the title asks I've noticed a very sharp increase in people just straight up not comprehending what they're reading.

They'll read it and despite all the information being there, if it's even slightly out of line from the most straightforward sentence structure, they act like it's complete gibberish or indecipherable.

Has anyone else noticed this? Because honestly it's making me lose my fucking mind.

If three astronauts are flying over the Gobi Desert in a canoe and they crash, how many pancakes does it take to shingle a dog house?

The answer is purple, because ice cream has no bones.

Wow. My sister is Chinese and this is not ok. She eats ice cream just like everyone else that's not handicapped by intolerance, and her bones are like steel beams. Purple? That's crossing a line.

It’s not right to call someone handicapped just because they like a different color ice cream than you.
