Why do people do this?

Probably they're interested in you. I wouldn't ask someone I don't give a shit about what they're reading (and if I do car I would wait for them to finish reading before asking because I know how annoying it is being interrupted)
However most people don't even read books so they have no clue that they might be interrupting so it's okay, I can forgive them.

I actually have asked a random what they were reading because it was something I liked and wanted to see if they were a pee pee poo poo brain.

Only other times I would ask someone about their book or talk to them with their book out would be if they were just starting/stopping, if it was about the book, or if they were friends/I was trying to annoy them.

If I was approached by a retard like you I would probably just blabber "uh idk what I'm reading bro" to avoid engaging in conversation with a pseud. You would get contempt to confirm that I am a poo poo brain and I get you to shut up, we both win.

Well luckily it was pleasant enough conversation for both of us. Same initial execution except nobody was a malice-filled retard. Win win.

People have asked me what I was reading multiple times in the past and I usually just ignored them and carried on. Am I a sperg?
