I just find it boring just the same as you don't rate Animals.

Both respective albums are our personal favourites but the difference is that it doesn't bother me in the slightest that you are not a huge Animals fan, it's all about opinions and I respect yours and have not started a debate about your dislike of the album.
The simple fact is that I have known that album (DSOTM) for 20 years now and it doesn't stimulate me anymore. I rarely play it. Doesn't mean that I think it's awful. I just rarely listen to it and prefer other albums.

Actually Animals has grown on me a lot, though I never disliked it at any point in time. It's indeed a great album.
