Ever feel like you've ignored the whole conversation and have asked a silly question that shows no understanding of what people have been saying? No one has said that everybody hates Tops-40 -- the strongest statements that has been made in general can be paraphrased "I hate Top 40. My friends hate Top 40 It sucks! Everyone else should hate it too." Then various support argument has been given for this statement.
