My roommate has this habit of putting on loud music in his room, which adjoins the kitchen, each night when I go out to cook dinner. Unfortunately, he is stuck in the 1970s, and not in a good way. I don’t know exactly why he does this but I think he believes he is somehow providing me with entertainment.
So tonight I just feel sort of more modern, and I said,
“Maybe tonight you’ll humor me with the Queens of the Stone Age.”
He played one of their songs, possibly the only one I don’t like much.
The rest of the time, he played Phil Collins. Aargh.
Phil Collins didn’t go solo until the 80s so either your roommate was playing Genesis or he has broadened his interests by a decade. Either way dollars to donuts I bet your roommate believes he is educating you with his musical selections.
