i've never had a problem with playing in dorms. in fact, last year I had my vjr stack in my dorm. never had any complaints when i cranked it.
my dorms have quiet hours, and any time outside those quiet hours, you can be as loud as you want, regardless if anybody complains.
I wouldn't want to drink with him because he would do all the talking.
I am not sure why more people don't get how "self-absorbed" and "into himself" he is. That doesn't make a good friend or lover, does it??
