Why do I feel like Carmen in Act IV, only this time both Don Jose and Escamillo are going to stab me to death outside the arena?

Pssst... your pop culture references are centuries old.

Since Carmen was first performed in 1875, it is less than two centuries old. Does one use 'centuries' to refer to an amount of time greater than one, but less than two hundred years?

Regardless, Garet, your insinuation is correct: I am living in a different time.

Let's rewrite it where don Jose and Carmen reconcile and live happily ever after, while escamillo gets with Michaela or someone... Would make a sucky opera, but...
