      Most people watch lots of musicals in childhood. Nearly all of Disney animated films are musicals. The Wizard of Oz, Frosty the Snowman, Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer, Muppets movies, Marry Poppins. Childhood musicals are cultural staples.

        So, when’s the last time you “listened” to a Disney movie?

        Also, “Marry” is a verb.

      Also showing that the idea that tumblr is only used by kids – by children – is ridiculous twaddle and bunkum

      Or that teenagers had taste and lsitened to something other than Hamilton.

        Teenagers aren’t supposed to have taste. Teacher, leave those kids alone.

        Heh. “Twaddle and bunkum”. Sounds like orphanage lights-out orders.

          Or a legal firm from one of Dickens’ stories.

            Ha! I’m gonna have to use that in a D&D setting: two gnomish attorneys wading knee-deep in dubious arcano-tech patent licensing find themselves up to their necks in underworld antics and hire the gang to do hero-type stuff on their behalf.

            Only for the team to land in a super dicey scene of their own — after discovering the gnomes’ ulterior motives.
