What music fo you listen to while reading? You do read, don't you user

I don't listen to music while reading. It's too distracting if you're a frequent active listener.

I only listen to music when I read manga and even then it's depends on the manga and if the music fits.
Listening to music while reading a book is too distracting.

I concentrate on the book

>Listening to music while reading
cringe and plebpilled

what about music in a language you don't speak?

damn i've never thought of that... i'll have to try it sometime

I'm not that guy but let me explain why you should do that because I'm very smart. When you listen to lyrical music, it lights up the language part of the brain, which reading also uses. You can't do both at the same time, so you're alternating between focusing on the music and the book, which is very distracting. When you listen to lyrical music in a foreign language, it doesn't light up the language part of your brain, allowing you to focus on the book. But, as all patricians know, if the music you're listening to doesn't catch your attention, or the book doesn't catch your attention, and you have to do both at the same time, either the music you're listening to or the book you're reading sucks.

Dont be pretentious...

I read but not while listening to music. OP is a pleb

Never once finished a book, even in school I just read like every third page, read some review of the book and wrote my essay.

a touch of pretension helps maintain a better community

If anything this board has too much pretention.

IMAGINE BEING A BABY AND THINKING THAT ADVOCATING READING IS A PRETENTIOUS POINT OF VIEW
IMAGINE BEING AN ACTUAL CHILD AND BEING LIKE "OH YEAH WHAT YOU THINK ME BEING AN UNEDUCATED RETARD IS BAD YOU'RE JUST PRETENTIOUS"
JESUS FUCKING CHRIST GROW THE FUCK UP

Instrumental albums mostly, Dilla or something like that

I can't read anything that isn't a website while listening to music

I read. Not as much as I used to, but I get through a book or two a month. I can't listen to music at the same time though - it distracts my tiny little brain.

I literally don't hang out with people who don't read

I can’t have music on while I read or I won’t be reading.

Why?

What should I read to make me less ignorant?

I mean what are you readin that makes you superior than us, the other. We are ultimately consuming expressive entertainment

Because people who don't read are fucking stupid

I usually listen to video game soundtracks. Equilinox and Stardew Valley are my go-tos.

I can't read

I don't think it really means they suck, just that you won't get full enjoyment from them.

start with the greeks :)

I read music
