Me: Let me guess; you want me to turn down my music?
Freshman girl: No play it as loud as you want. How late do you stay up?
Me: I'll probably be up until around 3 A.M..
Freshman girl: Play it as loud as you can until you go to bed. I don't care what anybody says; I think you're cool.
My immediate thoughts: I get it. Because they're having a party tonight, she doesn't want me to hear her fucking her boyfriend at the end since she knows I'm alone. Well, at least she's being considerate.
My thoughts an hour later: Wait a second, she just wants the noise from my music to override the noise from her party so the RA doesn't bust them for underaged drinking. Screw that, they're getting busted.
So, when the RA came by to tell me to turn down my Soundgarden at 12:30, I told him that I only thought I could get away with it because the party next door was making noise. Five minutes later, I heard a lot of cursing coming from those kids.
