Q: Have you ever sat through a Chinese opera from start to finish?
I sat through a mini-version that last about 2 hours once. Never even considered trying to sit through a hardcore 4 hour one. I just don't like them. Perhaps I just don't get them (probably) but to me it just sounds like a whole lot of noise and very annoying sounds.
I have problems coping with old people playing traditional Chinese music (TCM) on their geriatric boom boxes, when I pass them in the park or meet them in the lift
Nope. Awful stuff.
I should know, I listen to bagpipe music.

Would you hurt Non-natives, too
? Sorry, my English 'pronunciation'. Can't do 'smiley', while am editing, butt…I need O2, again.
I can not watch for more than 2-3 minutes, so you have my respect 
While finding the sound comparible to someone killing a cat slowly (apologies animal lovers), i can appreciate the vocal range some of the singers have - much wider than that of a more familiar opera singer.
Best I've ever managed is 90min, and that was only because I was stuck in the middle of an aisle and couldn't escape.
