No man have you ever been on a drive and showed your friend this cool song, and they’re completely silent for the entire thing? Not even so much as a head bob?

It's like walking through a minefield, sometimes your tastes are the same, and sometimes you get silence in return (at best)

Nah. If they don't laugh, you blame them. "No, the children are wrong."
