People definitely are annoying, and I have found I opened myself up to conversations I would rather not have. Like you said though I found something that works for me. I'll take the annoying questions and cell phone talkers so I can feel my reps better. Until I can find a gym that is full of guys dedicated like us.
Another thing I noticed with music that I didn't mention before, is that my rhythm would be thrown off by the beats of the music. I would sometimes find myself lifting to the beat of the music. That was another reason I stopped. I do miss the boost music would give me sometimes.
