No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.

shrug People need more musical theatre in their life.
Search your feelings. You know it is true.
What you exposure to 1980s British comedy? Because if you don't have an encyclopaedic knowledge of it I could say the same thing about you.
I know a fair amount - from Blackadder to Fawlty Towers, from The New Statesman to Yes Minister. I am not unaware of it :)
I love how you completely failed to get my point.
You're trying to shame people for not being interested in the things you like it's just weird. It doesn't make them bad people or mean that they had a bad life just because they don't engage in the same media as you.
No - I got your point.
I just thought it was funny how you tried to make a point using 80s British comedy and failed in such a spectacular way.
Made me smile.
At least I know the difference between Fawlty Towers and Monty Python.
Nah, people need more empathy and love in their life.
And less pretending that some things are universal.
Exactly.
Music is universal. Well that and maths.
Noting it makes people arrogant and judgmental like you. No.
