Yes, exactly, your pasting of the dictionary definition is correct. But not when applied to me.

Because I have better taste does not make me older than you. I also complain about music like one who is educated, not like, to use your considered phrase, “an old fart.”

I still await your defense of the lyrics. That you choose not to make one indicates your surrender on this point.

Why would I need to defend the lyrics to that particular Beatles song?

They aren’t questionable, in poor taste, or ineffective.
They are what they are FOR A POP SONG.

I always laugh when someone claims to have “better taste”.
More often than not, those who profess that are mistaken and even more often deluded.

errrrrgggg

That you like what you like is not reflective of anything close to resembling ‘I have better taste’.

You belie your claim to being educated by confusing your likes and dislikes with “that which is objectively good or bad”. Somewhere in your education you seem to have missed the class wherein the subjective/objective distinctions were drawn.
