The only way that would be possible is if I had never read a single book in my entire life. While a common hyperbolic claim, we both know that's a little unrealistic, don't you think? Would be very difficult to make it through schooling without doing at least some reading, after all.

This is a very silly argument to hang your hat on. Might want to think it through a little more.

Oh yeah I would be totally owned if you divulged that you had read The Very Hungry Caterpillar.

It doesn't matter, still fully meets the requirements you laid out. It does illuminate the silliness and irrelevance of your "condition" though. It's clearly just a shallow distraction.

Wow I can't believe it was that easy to guess the last book you read

You can pursue this cheap bait for as long as you want, but you're not exactly "owning" anything. This is pretty weak stuff you know.

The Lorax is really going to blow your mind when you get to that
