The Innate Dick must control music selection always
If he fails at doing this, he will put in his headphones and [turn it up] loud so you hear it even with your music playing.

And, despite having his headphones in, he'll still judge you for your music taste. Saying something like, "Seriously, do you play these songs to annoy me..." accompanied by a look of disdain.
This all comes after you have [catered] to his will, driving him around to fulfill his wants all day. ❋ It Was Fucking Good Ham (2019)
