That one was about ideology, that one was funny. It didnt state categorically that life is shit. To me it didnt cross any boundaries of bad taste. It also didn't tell me what to think about life, the universe and everything else.

- NeedMoreTea 7y agoFor very many people life is shit. Even in rich, "civilised" nations. Yet the message of "Always look on the Bright Side of Life" is optimism and humour in spite of adversity. Not that it's shit, but to have a laugh despite that, or because of that.
- MichaelMoser123 7y ago# For very many people life is shit Well, i have come to disagree with this assertion. I think it is wrong. It is infinitely better to be alive than dead.
- sorokod 7y agoClearly you are entitled to your own opinion about the value of your own life, but suicide is a thing.
- coldtea 7y ago>It also didn't tell me what to think about life, the universe and everything else. Whereas a casual song at the end of comedy, you chose to understand as the final gospel and embodiment of the ideology of Monty Python, that they tried to force upon you? Never even occurred to you that it was done for the mood/theme of the movie, not as some deep philosophical statement, and that they could even have an opposite message in another song in some other movie/skitch? It always amazes me how people think about things...
