I hate the "What kind of music do you listen to?" question. My playlists are all over the place, they have no cohesion, it's just whatever I happened to be in the mood for at the time a song was added. Everything from Scandinavian metal to Irish folk music to classical to rock to electronica to hardstyle, and I really don't know how to answer that.

I used to just pick a genre and claim it was that, but then people tend to want to discuss that and what I really want to say is, "I like a broad range of music, but I do not want to discuss my musical tastes with you, nor do I want you to recommend me songs from whatever you're currently listening to. Please desist." What's the proper answer to that question that doesn't leave me sounding like an asshole, but also doesn't invite further critique?

Edit: I guess what I'm saying is, I'm the 4th one.
