are you sure you come from the United Kingdom?
there's also plenty of examples of very aesthetically pleasing art out there,
it's just that tragedy and drama have much more punch.
It's also funny that you can remember painful moments very well, because it's
unpleasant and your organism doesn't want to ever make you forget those moments
so you don't go through the same process. But enjoyable moments... those are
about as brief and faded in memory as an orgasm...
