I’ve mentioned that I like to just sit back in my easy chair, put headphones on and just listen to music without doing anything else. People say this is weird and say they would fall asleep or go crazy from not doing anything. Am I weird for doing this?
Same. For me, listening to music is an active experience that takes up my brain slot. I can’t do something else while listening to music. Eg, many people study better with music, or do coding with music. That’s impossible for me. Exceptions are when I’m driving with the radio on, or walking to the train station with my earphones in.
