Which teen were you?

I saw this today, and the responses were amusing, so I thought you might want to answer here. 

I remember reading my encyclopaedia, thesaurus and world atlas for fun GrimacingBlush

  • Reads the encylopaedia for fun (and spells it with an ae...).

    Totally the opposite of one song on a loop (unless I am trying to learn it) as my compulsion is to listen to the whole tape or CD and it annoys me when the thing is not completed! Like in the car, it remembers where you got to and restarts from there, which I like, but my husband usually resets it to the beginning! So the first tracks get played more than the last ones. Is it that it offends my sense of fairness? Is it that the early tracks become earworms? Is it just a relic of tapes when it would wear the tape out faster if you rewound or ff'd too much? Not sure!

    I will occasionally skip a track if I dislike it, but that is rare. I mostly listened to classical as a teen though, maybe that tends towards it being more likely for one to like all the tracks fairly equally?

  • I also often (not always) listen to whole albums, even on iTunes where there's really no need. I feel an album is an artistic creation, and the songs were chosen to go on there in that order.
