I think that most people who "like" jazz don't actually like or understand it. In fact I'd posit that they don't like music in general, that it doesn't hit them in a visceral or emotional way at all.
Jazz is music made by junkies for posers. Like wearing a trash bag in Paris and calling it high fashion.
Its just a garbage bag with holes in it.

I was immediately thinking of that gif when reading MountainMedic @MountainMedic's post.

There was one episode of The Fast Show which summed up jazz pretty nicely.

The sketch was that guy was interviewing a jazz musician who he had invited on to play.

He asked "So, what are you going to play for us tonight?" to which the musician shrugged and answered "Er, the trumpet." The guy said "No, I meant what tune are you going to play?"

The musician looked at him with a mixture of horror and contempt and answered "TUNE??? this is jazz, man!"

Her nickname should be Drill Sergeant. She would have been better off if she had done AWOL. Anal Without Lube. The army isn't the only one to give her a discharge.
