    For anyone with kids, both options sound highly appealing.

    *is someone who occasionally lugs around hardbound books while on the porcelain throne and spends way too long just away from other people, lost in the book*

    Unpopular opinion: most people use punctuation incorrectly.

    Sometimes you don't need to hear your officemate's conference call while you try to code, though.

    It depends upon the job I think. It can make doing mindless tasks infinitely more enjoyable, even on a mediocre setup for me. Obviously YMMV.

    @Skyline - I got kids. I actually listen to speakers more because of them. When it's headphones I can't hear one of them murdering the other.

    Bathroom time is used to reflect on my poor choices in life

    @SoupRKnowva - just feel like both use the medium as a distraction rather than treating music/literature the focus it deserves.

    I mean to each their own, but still

    I guess that depends, with reading in the bathroom, what are you distracting yourself from? youre just sitting there, reading seems reasonable. with music at work I can agree, it depends on your usage, for me I cant listen to music with alot of what I do, but sometimes I do something relatively mindless and listen to music as the main event

    True story - I had a friend in high school that took War & Peace to the bathroom with him and didn't leave until 4 hours later
