Rude to talk to someone who is reading?

Does anyone else find it rude/annoying when someone starts talking to you when you're sitting there reading a book? In my mind this is no better than trying to talk to someone else who is on the phone or interrupting two other people talking.

Not to mention that they'll have to talk for like 10 seconds before I realize they're even talking to me in the first place and so I'll have to ask them what they just said.

I also feel the same for headphones. I wear headphones for two reasons; to listen to music and to avoid talking to people. Especially people I don't know.

Maybe I'm just anti social...
