Sinister: bassists have longer strings and things
by James Thorniley 10 Aug '99

10 Aug '99

Hi sinsters, I'll be unsubbing from Friday to go on holiday, and I still haven't quite caught up with the stuff I missed last week. I wanted to post this anyway. LOOPER I'm a Stu d fan too, now. I bought the Looper album the other day. I was sort of expecting something like B&S, so it was a bit of a surprise, but I decided it is good after listening to for a bit. Definitely worth the money, anyone who hasn't got it. I like his singing, but I don't think it's as good as Stuart M, sorry. BAD MUSIC Mark derided my listening to cast. Quite frankly, I can't be a***ed to defend them. BAN THE BOMB Lesley suggests: > the social > structure in this world is innately <censored> up, from the start. but what can > you do? i'm waiting for the culture to break down, and ppl start runing > around in the streets....then we can start a whole new <censored> up society Quite right. Though I'm not sure about the cross dressing bit (you should be free to cross dress if you want too, but please don't force me), I think the world is definitely fucked up. Does the new society have to be fucked up? Sorry, I'm taking this far to seriously, aren't I? SEDUCED BY RAB C. NESBITT All you gals who are prepared to throw your clothes to the wind on hearing a Scottish accent, I have to say I don't feel the same about women with equivalent accents. That's probably because all the Scottish women I have ever seen are very scary - our teacher from year 5; the women from the Army Cadets ("Och, stip tok'n it thi back thr. Yooz lis'n ti mee, thi good lok'n one.."); Gail Porter; Isobel.... Still, if all I have to do to pull is my rendition of "Och, if ee dont siv thi wee trtles, whoo will?", I'm not complaining. B&S CONTENT Well, HMV restocked their B&S singles, so I finally bought a proper copy of MRS. Very good. THAT TUESDAY MORNING FEELING This was sort of supposed to be the monday morning joke, but I didn't get round to doing anything on monday. So now its the Tuesday morning joke: There are two nuns in a bath. One says to the other "Where's the soap". The other says "Yes it does rather, doesn't it". I know this is a bit of an old one, but I don't get it. If anyone does get it, could they please e-mail me and tell me what it means (I get the feeling it's a FEMALE MASTURBATION joke or something, so it's a bit above me). Ok, thats enough.

Sinister: tigermilk dilemma
by Kin WOO 10 Aug '99

10 Aug '99

thanx for clearing up the "Lisa Helps the Blind"/"Beautiful" conundrum folks and for all the emails re: mp3's to tape or CD. Now I wanna know, for those privileged folk who have both, does the recently released "Tigermilk" CD sound any different to the original? I know it was remastered etc but is it noticeable??? Cos I have a copy of the original (well a close friend made a lovely crystal clear CD copy of it ages ago) and I know it's not the same thing, and that I should support my fave band (but I have ALL their other recordings!!!:)) but I'm poor and what's more, I'm torn about what to do:( So any advice would be greatly appreciated:) have lots more to talk about but gotta skedaddle talk to you soon seeya Kin Woo +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: quess what? Nothing in here again!
by jarkko frantila 10 Aug '99

10 Aug '99

Right from the beginning. CONSUMER COMMENTS: Marcusomond said this one that kinda got into me: >but stopped laughing when (a) she betrayed me and gave someone else a bj >while i was in the house> That's never nice, that situation. Actually, I can't really tell, since I wasn't in the house when the love of my life (eh... then that was, 4 years ago) did the vertical boogie over and over again with her ex-boyfriend. While I was sitting at home waiting for her to get back from "cleaning that office". But hey, that's in the past!!! Smile and the whole world... No, I just can't fake it. And on and on the same guy went, with things that made me think: >i had my second ever crush - kylie minogue.> Ahh, now were talking. I also used to fantasize about my parents leaving me to New York and me meeting Whitney Houston because of that and how she would take care of me and.... But the most horrifying thing was when Mel died (of Mel&Kim, remember them?). I was a Major fan of them ("FLM","Respectable", etc) and especially Mel who I wanted to marry. But somehow I forgot her completely at one point, just like a teenager does... And then, one day, I read in the paper that "Mel, the other half of the 80's sister-duo Mel&Kim has died of cancer." And what do I ask myself? "Who the fuck is 'Mel of the duo Mel&Kim'"? That's cold, you know. And MO then said, which turned out to be Pretty friggin' hilarious: >my first ever crush, incidentally, was cheetarah from thundercats.> ... which I read "Cheetah" at first. BS-STUFF: And now that the smut is out of the way, on to some B&S content: Does anyone have ANY idea if those Gentle Waves' shirts are coming or not? Or the badge(s)? I know, I know, I should ask about that from Jeepster, but, to tell you the truth, I just don't trust these big companies that are just in it for the money. MY LIFE STORY: A part of it. Two guys called me queer on saturday. Eh.... Ok, I had my black, velvety, a bit pornstarish shirt on, but still... I find it very funny that these kind of mistakes happen when I wear certain CLOTHES, for christs sake, like it would have something to do with it... Actually the other one was speaking english, so I can be proud: Someone has tried to insult me in a foreign language!!! In my own hometown!! Cool. And in the loo of this bar, me coming out of there, comes this 17-year old brat with his baggy pants and says to his friend: "These fucking faggots should be shot." How very open-minded of you, gentlemen. Would you like to have a cup of tee with my dear friend Oscar Wilde? Come on, you silly little kids, is that supposed to be insulting? WONDERING: I just noticed that I'm in front of Isobel and Stuart on the listcrush. How strange is that? And btw, I find these stupid headings so stupid that I shall never use them again. The end. @---<--- Jake, two cups of coffee, a cigarette and a kiss. ______________________________________________________ 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: horns are horny
by Blake E Hamilton 10 Aug '99

10 Aug '99

what a terrific night-- i am watching my cleveland browns (that's the estranged football team for those UKers, and i ain't talkin' bout saccccccccer) play for the first time in years, and it's truly a remarkable event. oh the joys. and i just put in 3....6...9 and now a b&s epidemic has spread and we're on TIJAMRIOHNOIVETORNMYACL presently, and there is no sign of a cure in sight. no sirrrree. how come it's 'four boys in our corduroys'? where's isobel? or sarah? and whom have they excluded? mick? oh the wretched world which we live in. so does anyone want to give an opinion as to what stuart is 'staying in and thinks it's a sin'? i always figured it was struan, but who knows? maybe stu d. was busy making looper songs and his bandmates decided to publicly flog him in a song. the poor chap. and for everyone's info, i do know where the summer goes. er well, i never really think it goes anywhere, if you think about it the right way. creating a completely fictional universe to reside in is very very easy. i repeat: in my world right now i'm being wanked by christina ricci. well, i guess the alternate reality has it's many uses. one of them is presented in this mail here, and the pie in my face. for anyone who wishes to send me a present, as it's my birthday on wednesday, please, feel free :) i'm going to be 19. but i'll save a 'good grief i'm an old geyser, someone tell i'm special' post for next year, as it's inevitable, anyways. oh, one more thing before i bog it on out of here, i have a friend who is very shy, who belongs to this list, who is a little scared to post, and she's a sweetheart, so this post is dedicated to her so that she may bring some of the sunshine to you all that she has brought to me... *sigh* love blakie xx the nerdy shy eyed pacifist +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: funkyseb continues despite the fact that he hasn't got a voice.
by Essexdog5＠aol.com 10 Aug '99

10 Aug '99

Incidentally, I'll be up on the hallowed hill of Primrose on eclipse day, cause a) It's nice b) it's near London Zoo's aviary, and we can watch the birds shit themselves c) it's close to work. Obviously, if anyone comes, I'll just have to watch you all talking while I stay silent, but that's OK.....:P By the way, this is my lovely friend's address, so don't send stuff here.

Sinister: Y I'm o-k 2...
by Robyn Fadden 09 Aug '99

09 Aug '99

Hi all, I wasn't afraid of y2k until I read Johan's warning about staying away from big cities b/c of riots. Hadn^�t really even thought of it ^� my mind won^�t let me make a big deal out of it for some reason, it^�s the same with birthdays (and that^�s just not a good thing at all^�) Anyway, I^�m inclined to not believe the hype, especially for my city (though we did have a riot when the Canucks missed out on the Stanley Cup a few years back.) Maybe I will have to fly away overseas for the mayhem in Iceland... I bought the Acid House soundtrack, yes, Belle and Sebastian Slow Graffiti, is right there in the middle, yaay. Soundtracks are a whole different thing when you haven^�t seen the movie (and I haven^�t cause it^�s not out here yet.) I^�m trying to guess the movie^�s theme/tone by listening to the music, but what will happen once I see the movie? I suppose all the songs will take on slightly new meaning of course. I can understand why one would stop buying soundtracks, even if the movie is really good. I^�d say more, but apparently I am intellectually vacant today, sorry. Oh but also, music always taints the moment (and isn^�t this part of why we listen to it?) and when listening to a soundtrack not only is your moment affected by the music but your moment is affected by the meaning of the music in its movie moment, so that you are doubly affected, feeling perhaps that you should feel a)like you did in the theatre at that moment in the film and/or b)like the characters in the movie during the time the music was playing and/or c) one or both plus how you feel at the moment you^�re listening to the song wherever you may be (ie at home doing the dishes on a sunny day.) I buy soundtracks b/c of all of this I suppose. After a while, the movie begins to fade and the music is just there alone. This kind of segues into and back to discussions about music and romantic situations ^� some people put on mood music, but what if you^�re putting on mood music from a soundtrack? Are you then in a way, even subconsciously, ^�re-enacting^� a movie moment? Or are you just going for a certain tone/mood? Okay, I^�ve made this all waaaay too complex and boring and if I don^�t stop now will contradict myself over and over and over again. Maybe y2k will bring the rain^� Robyn, currently thinking about buying the Rushmore soundtrack, but afraid of it re-enforcing her crush on Max, an entirely fictional person who^�s never going to grow up or be real. It^�s all for the best, I guess. === I was reading the dictionary. I thought it was a poem about everything. ~Steven Wright ~~~~ Robyn Fadden rfadden(a)yahoo.com Vancouver, BC _____________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

by Johan Nilsson 09 Aug '99

sinister is it true that Isobel got kick out of school for swearing too much? man that is quite fierce. i almost got kick out of a punk band when i was fourteen for not swearing enough. soooo what is all you sinisters plans for the big new years eve party? i guess you all will go to picnics in Kelvingrove Park or something like that. i'm going to Reykjavik, Iceland and see my big idol Björk play with some friends. stay away from any metropolican city, that is the only advice i can give you! the power will go off and so people will go riot and i don't know about you, but i wasn't built for surviving major riots. any other sinister thinking of going to Reykjavik?

Sinister: he's so gorgeous, don't you know?
by Marcus Omond 09 Aug '99

09 Aug '99

hello my lovelies, um, this is going to be the usual boring marcus post - a bit of paranoia, a bit of weird sexual perversion, a bit of cyber-fellation of the immaculately dressed geoff... the normal. so if you find my posts dull beyond belief, which i think most of you probably do, hit delete. ok, now assuming anyone's still with me, i'll start with a bit of good news. i'm going off to see cypriot-sinister natasha in two days! yippee! and what's more, i'll be flying through the eclipse - none of this crap faffing around on some hill in cornwall while wishing that the clouds/ crowds would go away - i'll be way above them both. but... i need some help. which side of the plane should i try to get a window seat on, if i'm flying from gatwick to cyprus? any astronomers out there who can help me on this one? of course, even though i intend to get to the airport at 6:30 am for my 9:15 am flight (it's a charter, so make that 9:15 pm), all the window seats'll be taken, and i'll be stuck in between derek and leeroy, both of whom have had sweets and coke for breakfast and are keen to throw up all over the ponce in between them in the middle of the aisle, while mummy tracy and daddy liam look on proudly. so it goes. unfortunately, being in cyprus with natasha will mean that both of us miss seeing mark 'fingering the groove(rider)' casarotto dj-ing. but we'll be there in spirit - we'll be that couple being antisocial and snogging in the corner. wow. geoff's fit. go look at his picture, and vote away. oh yes... the link is... http://www.majordomo.net/sinister/cgi-local/photo.cgi?gallery=people&photo=… ooooohhhh..... right, enough of that - there's only so much adulation a man (but what a man...) can take. colin campbell decided: >to start stalking miss Ricci, coz I am the sort of sick depraved person who >sits through a film such as, for example, the addams family values, all the >time thinking of how fantastic wednesday's boobs have become. i once had a girlfriend who had a stalker. it was really weird - she got fifty red roses every day for about two weeks, and assumed they were all from me, and so she was in a good mood with me :). but then she mentioned them and i said 'what roses?' and she got a letter from a mad russian saying that he was the son of king david and the queen of sheba (why not?), and that all americans were 'somdomites' (obviously the marquis of queensbury's influence extends so far as chechnya) and 'paedophoiliacs', and that he wanted to 'not only posess your body, or your mind, but your ETERNAL SOUL!!!!!!!!!!!' hmm... so i laughed at this, but stopped laughing when (a) she betrayed me and gave someone else a bj while i was in the house (b) the stalker turned up at the school we were attending in prague and looked at me in a harrowing way (he'd followed her around, and so thought i was still her boyfriend), before playing around inside his inside jacket pocket as if he had a gun there... oh yes, i stopped laughing pretty fucking quick. but then he got extradited, and everyone was happy. except for him, of course, because his 'pure swedish bride and queen, whose eyes are oceons' was sleeping with a 'somdomite and paedophiliac'. i think colin would have been a better stalker though - guns are *so* passe. axes are much cooler now... anyway, the ever-hilarious kevan told colin to: >never fall for a child star i don't know if claire danes counts as a 'child star', but i fell for her after watching romeo and juliet. so much so that i gave up wanking for about three months, so that i'd be saving it all up for when we started going out... but then i saw she'd lost her beautiful hair, and died it strawberry blonde, and i returned to the five finger shuffle pretty damn sharpish. i don't think she's going to grow up to be kula shaker though... but then again, i don't think she'll ever be as cute as mr mills... am i alone on this one? anyway, when i was a child star (security video for NEXT (british clothing chain shop); shop lifting cub scout in P!O!P! video for 'the band of holy joy') i had my second ever crush - kylie minogue. i would have married charleen at ten, and i cried when she married scott instead. but he turned out to be gay, didn't he? or was that joseph and the technicolour dreamcoat? anyway, ever since my nanny introduced me to ramsey street at the tender age of nine, its inhabitants have been my dearest friends... i dream about them almost nightly, and talk to anne and billy all the time. and now they're moving in! rather risque for suburban erinsborough, but... well, the youth of today... am i the only person sad enough to converse with the characters in a soap opera? or are other sinisteroonies as sad as me? my first ever crush, incidentally, was cheetarah from thundercats. i used to dream about snogging her when i was eight, and playing with her tail... bisexuality surfaces in unusual ways at that age, no? and that orange leotard... mmm... she-ra was a bit of all right too, wasn't she? when i got the toy the first thing i did was look up her dress... right, i think i've scared you all off by now, so i'll crawl off back to my corner again... but first i'll go to http://cgi.pathfinder.com/time/time100/poc/century.html and vote for stuart murdoch once (no, 100 times) again. come on, everyone who's bored at work - we can easily get in 12000 votes and put him higher on the list than princess di... you know it makes sense... love to all, as ever, Marcus XXX ______________________________________________________ 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".
