I've been wondering why met gala looks like some kind of crazy, ridiculous demonic ritual.
Really? What makes you think it's a ridiculous ritual?
People dress up and do crazy and weird things and that's just ridiculous.
The Met Gala is an important cultural event. It may seem foreign to you to you because you're not into opera, but it's as much fun and celebrative as the Mardi Gras. You should check it out -- you might end up singing the the famous aria from PAGLIACCI, "Vesti la giubba," next time you're in the shower.
I don't think it's that fun. Either way, I don't have time for that kind of stuff.
If you aren't even willing to give it a try, then you should just not have an opinion on it. It's kind of rude to be so judgmental about an event that you haven't even tried for yourself or at the very least done some research on.
