Sinister: Excuse my selfishness,,,
by Jordi Trenzano i Vilar 28 May '99

... but IŽm proud to announce you that one of my most loved treasures, the autograph that Stu M gave me at the train station of Rye, is now available at the "things we made in school tody, mummy" section of the sinister site. As youŽll find out, heŽs not maybe a heir of the genius of Van Gogh, but the picture is funny. "You, having fun at the chalets.." he told me. I donŽt remember anything more than this (maybe Robin does), but this moment is still in my mind, a month later.

Sinister: King Taggy meets the rulers uptown
by mctag＠bigfoot.com 28 May '99

28 May '99

Dear Rabble, It's a bit lively out there, isn't it? Such prolifererations of post normally mean one thing and that one thing is the cartoon thread rearing its ugly head again. Triffic. Man, I fucking LIVE Chorlton and the Wheelies TWENTY FOUR SEVEN, so I have no need to stoop to the level of writing about it. Manchester has been a thrilling and vibrant party city these last 48 hours, I don't think. To commemorate Lucifer's spawn's dark "triumph", we went to the pub and drank flagons foaming ale 'neath the stars, while Warrander "Statto" John bored our pants off with all the fascinating footballing facts at his fingertips until JJ called him as a very dull man, and Mrs Warrander "Statto" John nursed her "drink problem". Then it rained so we went inside and a narsty man shouted at us. Peter Miller's description of Manchester United was deadly accurate, I thought. I'm listening to your tape as I speak, Peter. It's very good. I also got a full-on rocksteady tape yesterday so now I am officially Taggy Dread. Tonight I, Pumpkinny, and her, Wumpkinny, are going to Scotland where we will hook up with some of the Belle's Angels Glasgow Chapter. I believe we are going to the 13th Note for Stephen Pastel's mucky film night, just in case any of you want to admire us in our finery. Tomorrow, we visit the land of my fathers, in search of Islay cheese, the most powerful aphrodisiac since Keith last made me a cup of tea. Not that we need it, you understand.. You can deny this all you like but I reckon Stuart Murdoch looks just like the singer from the Offspring. Have you ever seen them in the same room? I rest my case. Love and cutesy wootsy fluffy puppy dogs and kitty kats with candyfloss tails and jellybean willies, Tag xxxx +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: Jokes that offend women. Fuck. Terribly sexist.
by jarkko frantila 28 May '99

28 May '99

Am I the only one who pays special attention to those posts that have some dirty words in the subjectline? Things about work: I fancy this girl here, I've had my eyes on her for quite some time now. And yesterday when we were on the train we just babbled about things, and all of a sudden I found out that she wears white knickers. Blimey. I feel funny. Ok, what do I do next? =) Ooh, what a hangover. Yes Kim, it was yesterday that I went out to see Teman Benaran in Semifinal (Sorru MARIA, a friend of mine called me around ten o'clock and invited me there, promised to buy me beer. So I had to go, sorry I didn't call you). 5 hours of sleep and now I'm sitting here at work, have no interest to do anything. We've all been there before, haven't we? But I must say, Teman Benaran rocked. Well, not rocked. Kind of a "Mano Negro meets latin dance meets jingely guitars"-music. Very original and very danceable. My friend plays percussions for them. And he was quite boozed up, looked funny when he was standing on the back of the stage and banged on the bongos like a chimpanzee. arf. Strange thing happened to me in there. I was just about to leave but I had to go to the toilet, and this one guy came up to me and said: "Hey, thanks for the 'Century of Fakers' ep, I taped it and it was great." Now, I've never EVER seen this guy in my entire life, so you can imagine how I reacted. I just stared at him and couldn't say a word. Well, it turned out that he had borrowed it from a friend of mine who borrowed the ep from me a few weeks back. What it strange is that I've never seen the guy in my entire life, like I said, so how the hell he knew who I was? I was wearing my B&S badge, but I doubt that was the reason why he recognized me. I was in a hurry to catch a bus back home so I didn't ask him about that, and now I'm baffled. but I have to call my friend today to ask him how in the fuck he can borrow my cd's to people I've never met. Grrr. Tried to listen to Godspeed You Black Emperor yesterday in this recordstore. Ok, 3 songs and 63 minutes. A bit different than that Gentle Waves. And I listened to it on the headphones while some other guy blasted out some Alec Empire (ATR) stuff out of the big speakers in there, so LOUD that i couldn't listen to Godspeed propely. So I really can't say anything about GspeedTBE. But it sounded good, the little I heard of it. Well, Inspector Gadget and prostitutes. Well ok, I'm not sure they were prostitutes, but I'm sure there was some big boobs on that one. And yes, it's sad that in a cartoon these things grab my attention. And now, time for a crappy joke. Why? Just because. A guy comes into a spermbank wearing a mask. He pulls out a gun and points it at the girl behind the counter. "Open the fucking safe or I'll kill you!!" he yells. "But this is a spermbank, we have no money here", the girl says. "Open the fucking safe! NOW!", waving his gun at her. So she opens the safe which is fulls of testtubes filled with sperm. "Now, take one tube and drink it down!!" he screams. "No way!" "DRINK IT!" he says, taking a step closer to the girl. She thinks about it for a while, then takes a tube, opens it and drinks it down. "Now, open another one and drink it down too!" the guy yells, still pointing the gun at her. The girl has no choice, she opens another one and gulps it down. After this, the guy pulls out his mask and, strangely enough, the girl finds out the the man is her boyfriend. "Now, you see? It isn't that fucking hard, is it?" Sorry about that one. Filthy me. Hmm, been here for two hours now, so I quess I'd better start working. Ta ta. @--->--- a rose, love and other stuff that makes you feel funny in your tummy, jake. "What, this turkey? No way, this one has character!" -Donald Duck. ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: some girls are bigger than others
by jessica 28 May '99

28 May '99

i'm continually amazed that there's a smiths quote for every occasion. there's likely something b+s that would be appropriate there as well, but i can't think of it right now. about the sinister photo page: hmph. not only does sultry courtney have boobs, she also has a strawberry tattoo in a provocative place. i'm afraid i can't compete with that. i should just give up now if there are going to be all these saucepots joining the list. for those of you who find that sort of flaunting threatening, you can look at the picture of sleepy me. perhaps courtney and i could band together and form a minxy alliance? that seems like the proper thing to do in these sorts of situations. that, and putting on my wonderbra. hello, cleavage. i refuse to believe that i have been fooled by a false sarah cracknell, although that k.y. story does sound about right. about llpj: i'm glad i wasn't the only one who thought that it was about a...erm...an active girl. i don't know if it's necessarily a prostitute, it seems to me like she just fucks to get what she wants (eeeek! language!). the obvious "you will have a boy tonight/you will have a girl tonight", "you're running miles in some boy's jumper". but there are a few b+s songs that seem to be about that sort of thing: 'stars of track and field' is the one that comes to mind, with "when she's on her back she had the knowledge to get her into college/when she's on her back she had the knowledge to get her what she wanted". oh, in 'seeing other people' there's the bit that goes "if they don't see the quality then it is apparent that you're going to have to change", like she knows she's good and she knows she can use it to her advantage. or he, actually, because gender's not established. i just get the impression from most of their songs that even if the main character (or whatever it's called) is portrayed as being aloof or naive or innocent, they're really quite cunning. i don't know, there's usually one line in a song that jumps out at me as being overt and that makes it seem that whoever the song is talking about knows themselves really well and knows which things to do to get their way. that's one of the best things about b+s, that the people they write about are so sassy. this is why i avoid discussions that analyse lyrics, because i just end up rambling and being circular and likely not making very much sense but instead revealing too much. and there is a certain person, let's call him matthew c....no, wait, m. crooker is better, who's a bit insecure about his photos on my sinister picnic page. so let's all reassure him that he most certainly does not resemble a hydrocephalic anthony michael hall. *mwah* jessicaxo * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * someone had spied on us, i suppose, as we sat beside the canal and ate the sandwiches, drinking not even orangeade or coca-cola but hot milk out of a thermos. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * t i n y s t a r @ w o r l d y . c o m (it's lovely being a girl) +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: Hi there people I'm Bobby Brown
by Fredrik Appelberg 28 May '99

28 May '99

Hi there fellow sinisterines! I was sick all day yesterday (swollen throat, light fever) but went to work anyway. Today I'm feeling better, but staying home just to compensate. That's ok, right? The good thing about this is that I finally hade the time to go through by backlog of Sinister messages. Oh joy! So I'll try to comment on all the current memes in turn. Things Up Your Nose: A friend of mine once got an incredibly strong breath mint stuck in his nose. Apparently it was very painful and he lost his sense of smelling for a few days. While we're on the subject: am I the only one who enjoys getting my ears flushed with warm water? It's kinda lika a fetish for me. Bagpipes: I heard that performers often prefer Irish bagpipes to the scottish type since it allows them to both drink and smoke while playing. Lesley: apparently there are a nordic variant of bagpipes; they are a little smaller and not very impressive to look at. Literature: I read an Irving book once. It wasn't unpleasant, but I don't think I'll do it again anytime soon. At the moment I'm reading Gravity's Rainbow and it's filled with important stuff like Death, V2-Rockets and Kinky Sex. A lot of sex, really. You'll love it. Cheese: The garlic flavoured cheese was some kind of softspread, right? Love it! Also, smoked cheese-sausages are marvelous! Nightlife (not necessarily gay): Ok, if I want to dance I go to my local warehouse party and if I wanna get pissed I saunter down to one of the many excellent pubs here in Stockholm. But nightclubs? I can't stand it. People drinking and dancing at the same time? It's against nature! It's evil! I will never feel at home in a nightclub! I never manage to have a good time in there. I feel lost. Maybe it's just my shy nature, but I don't think I'm alone in this. The Onion. Yes! Stupid Pet Names: Riff-Raff might be an indie movie, but I was actually thinking about the Rocky Horror Show. Sweet...! I agree that Julius is a good name for any pet. BTW: my cousins had a parrot once. They named him Teodor for fifteen years everyone assumed that he was male until suddenly one day she laid an egg. I think there's a lesson in that for all of us. I just noticed that I'm the only one on the list that use capital letters in the proper places. And frankly, this message looks like crap compared to your sleek, lower-case affairs. Oh, well... --Fredrik +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: we're four boys in our corduroys

I feel my Who feelings hurt by Sister Disco, though I must own a chuckle or two. Sarah, gets a big moon patroller hug! Does anyone know when CMJ is? I want to play it but don't know if it will be in September or in November again. How much Belle and Sebastian can one possibly hear in one day? I'm going for a record today. Do I get a point for the cardie? Someone actually told me I looked like a Gap girl because of my cardie...then I heard someone try to liken John Coltrane to grocery store music...all in the same day! Now the neighbors are telling. Whew, if only I were famous... fleeing before it's too late, moon patroller carrie +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: B&S doc rocks shock!
by Essexdog5＠aol.com 28 May '99

28 May '99

Broadcast from Planet Privileged! Forgive me, I'm a journaist (etc). I've just seen a preview tape of the BBC Choice B&S documentary and, surprisingly, it's really rather wonderful. Interviews with Richard, Stuart D, Mick, Mark Radcliffe, Joe Egg (200 Troubled Teenagers oganiser - there's brief footage of that night as well, using much the same shots as Select chose), and Sinistrine Caleb. The latter proposes that B&S straddle the art/pop divide - which must be very wearing on one's polyester gusset. The 'story' of B&S (which transposes the Seymour Stein visit to the States, for some reason) is told via a Bunty-esque comic named Sissy (arf!), read on a bus (yay!) by a (not very B&S) girl. Oh, and there's also a very telling moment where one member of B&S says something along the lines of "It's not all flowers in back pockets"..... (it may have been Mick). There are also two vids I hadn't seen before - one almost definitely featuring AwfulVoiceWoman from Sleater Kinney, and the other starring Isobel in a coffee shop. Oh, and there's some rehearsal room stuff too. Fortunately, this 30 min thangdango is actually superior to the South Bank Show doc on The Smiths. It's kinda pure! And if anyone knows (or indeed HAS) the B&S demo which includes the line "You're Kellogs and I'm Nabisco" (which appears in said film), I'd love to hear it! Ditto Tigermilk instrumental. I'm listening to the finished CD copy of Tigermilk as I type this. I only mention that because I'm so fucking EXCITED!!!!! B&S fans - we rool da skool. Yes. Ahem. Goodnight. Pip pip!

Sinister: X-Mailer: atlantis mail 32
by angel 28 May '99

28 May '99

if i had a fish, i'd call it Diesel Power. i don't have a fish. our list-authority on Stars in their Arse said: That's right Mike -- those are the basic rules, that and no one under the age of 14 (unless you're going to do Aaron Carter, and we have one lined up for an audition!) my sister, who's twelve, rang up to be Britney Spears and they sent her an entry form. i was hoping they wouldn't, i have misgivings about anyone letting my siblings on television. it hasn't happened so far, which considering i've got seven siblings isn't bad going. Tim Popkins said: No, you're thinking of Beatrix Potter, who learned all she knew about storytelling from Mistopher Chris Leonard's Little Struan stories. She's still on the digest, though. You should have seen the abuse she sent me after I joined in with the regrettably short-lived anti-rabbit thread. The language she used! Oooh! i read a book about Beatrix Potter once. turns out she didn't actually like children very much and wasn't as twee as you might think. don't ask for details which might stand up in court, because i can't remember any. is that libel? anyway, i ate some rabbit once. it was before i went vegetarian, so it was when i was little, and i remember being bewildered by the fact that it came in small cubes. i had visions of square rabbits roaming the countryside building geometrically perfect warrens and twitching their nasty little noses in time. abi, who's trying to think of ways to change the world.
