Kind of off topic, but I don't think it necessarily makes one a robot. Some people enjoy quiet moments and spend time organizing their thoughts, imagining things, thinking through problems, or just enjoying a relatively calm and thoughtless period. I suppose you can think of it as just a different form of entertainment driven internally rather than externally.

I really appreciate any moment I can get where I'm not inundated with stimuli.
