When someone uses "boring" as a criticism and nothing else

>when someone uses "boring" as a criticism and nothing else

Ok but there are some situations where boring is the ONLY way to describe something. For instance, The National.

But WHY is it boring

Because nothing interesting happens. You might just like boring music.

But there's a lot of interesting stuff happening in The National's music.

>when someone uses "pretentious" as a criticism and nothing else

What would make it interesting?

you might say that their criticism is boring amirite

Usually I know within 20 seconds if it holds my attention or not

Boring thread

I mean by virtue of something being boring it can't compel me to think on it - but I know the feeling OP, it's a particularly damning criticism for someone to glibly dismiss something you're into as boring.

That's the exact criticism I use against this album.

Although I don't condone it, I do use it to describe things I had zero interest into, and had nothing noteworthy going on. Like the last Gas album. It didn't make me feel anything other than boredom. I hardly remember anything about it.

What would you rate that album on a scale from 1 to 10?

That says more about your musical illiteracy than anything else

I wouldn't
Sure

Don't ask me.

prepar 2 die

Then it's not boring. nice try though

You know that's not how it works right? If you're gonna do mental gymnastics, at least do it right.

>You know that's not how it works right?
Why not?

If there's a problem, there's a solution. If you can't answer the later, then there was no problem to begin with.

Scaruffi uses boring. It's a legitimate criticism, you cry baby.

He's not a legitimate critic
