I understand what you mean by saying that it's fun to call it boring. It has a quality to it which is a bit too "soft", if that is the correct word. My favorite classical composers are Mozart, Beethoven, and Chopin, because I feel they stand above the "boring" and create something truly powerful and moving. There was a time where I couldn't stop listening to the 9th Symphony or Chopin's Nocturne in E Flat Op.9 No.2. I dare anyone to listen to those and call them boring. ;)
