EXCUSE ME. MAY I ASK A QUESTION?

YOU'RE BLASTING YOUR MUSIC WHILE YOUR WINDOW IS OPEN, SO I'M WONDERING..

ARE YOU THINKING THAT THE PEOPLE AROUND YOU ARE ENJOYING YOUR MUSICAL CHOICES?

OR ARE YOU A PSYCHOPATH, PRONE TO EGOCENTRIC, ANTISOCIAL BEHAVIOR?

OR IS IT A DESPERATE, MISGUIDED ATTEMPT TO IMPROVE YOUR ODDS OF FINDING A MATE?

IT'S ACTUALLY A SIMPLE CASE OF PEER IMITATION AND COGNITIVE DISSONANCE THAT CAUSES ME TO SELECTIVELY FILTER MY PERCEPTIONS.

I LIKE THAT SONG.

GREAT! NOW I SUDDENLY HATE IT!

YOU RUINED EVERYTHING!
