Is there really already a generation who has difficulty imagining that a possible use of books is... reading them?

Apparently the `if it looks like a book it must be an iPhone-charger' meme is due to this guy and his peculiar `love of books'...: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/04/27/booksi-book-iphone-charger_n_1459312.html
