For someone with my “brain type” music is obvious bad.
OK, sure.
It drains attention while giving nothing back.
IMO, this is confabulation. Maybe it’s your true rejection, but I think it’s much more probable (80%ish?) that your brain randomly came up with this story while trying to figure out why you dislike music. The part of your brain that generates reasons doesn’t necessarily have access to the part of your brain that generates likes/dislikes.
The story my brain came up with along time ago when I was a teenager was that I was too intelligent to enjoy music or other people were just pretending to enjoy it. (I could have used LW back then.)

I think your new story is less harmful but probably equally true. :)
