Ah—Ah-argh..." Mr. Salzella
"Incidentally, another thing I can't stand about opera are the plots. They make no sense!! And no one ever says so!!! And the quality of the acting? It's nonexistent!! Everyone stands around watching the person who's singing. Ye gods, it's going to be a relief to put that behind... ah... argh..." Salzella again.
