I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

If there are more than two musical numbers, then I think it's officially a musical.
It’s not really a “musical number” if it’s just a scene in which musicians perform a song on stage. It’s not like they’re breaking out into song and dancing across sets.
