February 2000 - Sinister

Sinister: *...who held court in a nice little pink gingham dress which Fubble had given him for his birthday.

You! Yes, You specifically! I was strolling about aimlessly to-day (fine February days I'll miss most when global warming turns the eastern seaboard into lukewarm bathwater), when I had something of an epiphany, at which point several curious incidents that have occurred to me in the past month suddenly became clear. I have awkward reactions when I encounter strangers. It's only fair to let you know that, if I've seen any of you on the street without knowing who you are, I may have done this to you, too. When I meet people, I often imagine them in various states of undress in ...how shall we say it? classical poses. Characters from ancient myths, nineteenth-century novels, and sometimes Shakespeare. And while this can be fun, it feels a little bit vulgar, and more than a little bit duplicitous, to be talking about perfectly ordinary things while thinking to oneself that they'd probably look smashing, nude, in marble. I was reading Henry James' _Roderick Hudson_ this week (a beautiful novel if a bit tragic; I highly recommend it), when it dawned on me: I'm not a pervert; I just want to be a sculptor! Now that this is all clear, I'd like to apologise to anybody that I may have (anonymously or otherwise) imagined in compromising poses. And for other things... I hope Stu D. leaving is a good thing, although I don't care much for any implication that *any*body can play the bass. In the long run, though, I think that having somebody from the existing band fill in is a lot better than having some strange guy who can play bass and do nothing else (pardon me while I think back to the boy who played bass for Duran Duran on their Medazzaland tour... good, but no John Taylor). I will only say that I won't say anything about intolerance and prejudicial behaviours toward same-sex relationships. I do worry some times that people are too wrapped up in their own definitions of tolerance to realise that they're being intolerant themselves. Like what's going on with the diplomatic isolation of Austria; it disturbs me that other nations will preach about what amounts to a conditional democracy, which is no democracy at all. That said, I'm quite glad I'm not a foreigner living in Austria right now. -Paralis. +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: The Poor Unsuspeting Gay
by Sarah Clarke 18 Feb '00

18 Feb '00

Dear children, I think gayism is bluddy GRATE. And the reason we say this is because we adopted it from the bluddy GRATE PopEx, the fun fantasy pop trading shares game. Steve typed the wrong URL in I see, so try this one instead and play! Cos its GRATE! http://www.popEx.com/cgi-bin/popEx.cgi?Mentor=1475 Even David Kitchen plays it, even though I thought he didn't like spam? And its good to know that he supports Sinister by sending us the B&S news updates too, isn't it :) Unfortuntately I won't be able to see this tribute to Ennio Morricone as I will be in New York seeing the Magnetic Fields on that date. Ner ner ner ner ner. Me, New York? We're like *that*. I'm hoping my northern accent will help me pull a cool New York boy - even though scary Adrian-san from Japanese class asked me if I was American. American? Pah! I don't even like Americans!* Moving on from that topic, to American Lesbians! HI LJ! Thanks for the offer of lesbo tea, but I'm afraid I don't like herbal teas, they're bluddy bollocks. I had blackcurrant tea once and it was very vom-flavoured. What sexuality is two months past its sell by date Diet Irn-Bru? As I have two bottles of that left in my room, if you want to try them out. *Unless they are nice. Erica mentioned dragging kids out of cords and trainers and putting them in three piece suites, I mean three piece suits, I mean, eh? Posh clothes. As I read her post whilst wearing (doh! call the fashion police!), cords, trainers (New Balance 802s, has anyone got trainer recommondations as I want some more. I'm thinking of maybe...saucony but I don't know? I'm also thinking Converse but is that too dull?), I felt awfully looked down on. I happen to like my cords and trainers and I'd take them over teddy boy shoes anyday. I nearly bought a pink and black jacket the other day, I swear. But common sense got the better of me and I put it back. And then in the next weeks what do I see but hot pink gucci imitation jackets everywhere. Sigh. They are sooo hideous, just so awful I cannot believe anyone would wear them. If anyone has one on the list, look - I don't hate people who wear the jackets, I just hate the jackets, ok? They'll cause damage to your arse muscles y'know though. Or at least cause damage to my VOM muscles. Aaw though. Aren't Belle & Sebastian GRATE though.

None
by The Narrow Wizard 18 Feb '00

18 Feb '00

Honey passed the following on to us A tribute night for Ennio Morricone will also be held on 11th March 2000 entitled MONDO MORRICONE. The venue is to the Cowane Theatre (69 Cowane St, Stirling, FK8 1JP. Tel: 01786 462367). There will be performances on the night by artists from: Belle & Sebastian, Teenage Fanclub, BMX Bandits, The Pearlfishers, The Vaselines, The Pastels. Please note that this is NOT a Belle & Sebastian gig, it is simply one or two of the members of Belle & Sebastian participating in the tribute to Ennio Morricone. If anybody fancies a night out then just mail me and there's plenty of floor space in the chalet for you and all your friends, hmmm just like a mini bowlie. Denise Power said I'm turning into the narrow wizard which explains why I've lost my pulling power, that bitch has stolen it, it's her fault that I've not pulled anybody new at all this week, you're gonna pay for this bitch (oooh did I sound all angry there, sorry didn't mean to, I was only joking). I was thinking about this Idea for the sinister village, do you think that we would need a list gigolo? and perhaps Crystalballs could be the villages moral majority (no offence meant mate) we would just have to pretend that there was more of him to make him the majority. We also need a beautifuly written history of the sinister village so I guess that Archel will just have to continue with sitting round knitting and occaisionally pausing to write something profound. justin said I wouldn't want to live if music didn't exist, and I don't say that out of haste or assumption. I know it is true without hesitation. and he was worried that he couldn't express himself well, well I thought that he did it so well that I'll just endorse the above words as being my thoughts exactly and not need to add any more to the subject. well that's it from me and I didn't even mention valentines day love and whatever owen With that the narrow wizard waggled his bushy eyebrows and disappeared in a flash of blue flame leaving behind only a faint smell of cinnamon +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: So what *did* happen in Gomorrah?
by stephen hewitt 18 Feb '00

18 Feb '00

Something which occurs to me every now and then. I think we all have a pretty good idea what was going on in Sodom, but what were they getting up to gomorrah, it must have been pretty naughty (i'm a heathen with very little biblical knowledge, so apologies if this is like a really obvious question). Will Porter in a post of GRATE wit and intelligence mentioned homoamory. Wasn't he one of the wombles? The one with the bowler hat that fixed things.... I think i want to marry dimensionflippy Ian (depite being straight and already married and blokes not being able to marry each other), or at least hire him as my court jester. I also want to say arsemusclesdamagenappies, just cos it makes me grin. Alisdair said: when I saw Home Economics support The Apprentice Badgers. Pure Class. If anyone hasn't got The 'Badgers second album, etc etc stop taking the piss, mate, everyone knows the badgers second album was RUBBISH :) (and it was on "no, stop, my sides have split" records) Can i have the role of PuB qUiz OrgAniSer in the sinister village please or SmilEy BloKe iN tHE cOrNEr gEtTiNg vErY DrUnk. I don't think the village would have a shortage of LibRariAnS or ComPuTer TEchS though :) and for those of you wondering aboot why we say GRATE, it kind of comes from popex (http://www.popex.com/cgi-bin/popEx.cgi?Mentor=302) and the NME.com chatroom (http://www.nme.com) gang who picked it up from MJ Hibbert (http://listen.to/HeyHey16K) and the Artists Against Success (http://www.aas.mcmail.com) mob. There, hope that clears it all up. xoxo CarsmileSteve +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: smut city.
by Denise Power 18 Feb '00

18 Feb '00

Oh list ! What am I doing, I'm turning into the narrow wizard, thats what. There was a departmental do on last night, an inaugural or something and free wine made me a very silly naughty girl. There was a guy in a box controlling the lights and what on that were going on through out the obligatory lecture that preceded the free wine. He was so lovely. I think he may have been the best looking boy I've ever seen in my life. Me and a girl from the dept went into the box and *cringe * in no uncertain terms offered our services. He called us weird and was very scared. Then I left and that girl pretended she kissed him while I was gone. I got insanely jealous and wouldn't leave him alone after that. I sort of climbed onto his knee and everything. While the girl was there he said he had a girlfriend called ciara and went the girl left he told me he didn't have a girlfriend. Something deep within in me prevented me from hopping on him. I think it was the feeling of imminent failure. Reader, he rejected me. It was so humiliating. I think I loved him for a minute. I even cleared the hall for him of my colleagues and contemporaries so he could go to a party with his girlfriend. I even stole someones hat so I would have an excuse to go back into the little box. they miraculously got their hat back and my silly antics resulted in him telling me to "get the fuck out of [his] office." Sob ! Wait, it gets worse. We all went onto a wine bar then and I ended up crying a few times because that girl was annoying me so much. At one point I did actually leave the wine bar because I hated her to bits and I walked down the street and gave a begger all my change but then I took a pound back, I think for bus fare. We got talking and he told me lots of possibly made up stories of how he got to Ireland, he was australian. His name was roy. His stories were very entertaining though. I said, I don't want to be rude mr. hobo but whats it like being a begger. He didn't take offence or anything and told me that it was good. He wasn't even cold and it was a pretty freezy night. I said, where next, america ? because he has been everywhere else. Then he said he never heard the word hobo before. I said, are you joking or what ? Then he asked me to marry and got kind of insistent. I lied and said I had a boyfriend and laer forgot and told him about the boy in the box. He laughed and laughed at that. As we sat there , no one gave him money. I think that was because he told me he'd share it with me anything we got while I was there, as a down payment on the dowry. Maybe I looked too rich to be a begger. I told him, he'd make a packet if he went to edinburgh to be a begger because they do. He thanked me for the advice and told me to stop fighting with the girl and enjoy the night anyway, to go back in there and just ignore her if she was mean. I asked him to come but he declined. I said that when we were leaving the bar I'd wave and say hi roy and he could say Hi Dee and everyone would be well impressed with me. But when we did eventually come out he was gone. I went back into the bar and came out of the toilet at the exact same time as my lecturer. Hes australian too so I told him about roy. He said roy was probably not homeless at all and I was silly to belive his stories, that all australians are liars. I grimaced when he said that. Then I asked him about a certain rumour which was circulating (about us) he said there was no truth in the rumours at all. I breathed a sigh of relief. I then showed off my excellent journalistic skills and told him what dirt I had on him. Then it was his turn to grimace, I had him bad. He was shocked at my knowledge of his lewd and lascivious dealings with his students. Then I went back to the table with him where I made him buy cigerettes. I was finding myself hugely attracted to him, which at the same time repulsed me so I started talking to a random stranger. I can't remember the random stranger's name but he was spanish and he told me he had a girlfriend even though he later tried to kiss me. (But I let him briefly) He told me the funny story , through broken english of how he came with his friend to the wine bar and his friend assumed that he was gay and tried to set him up with a closet gay married man of 50. the gay man had just left because whatever his name was told him that he did not wantto be a rent boy. AS we were talking the gay man came back and gave me a look of hatred. For some reason I started to kiss his hand. It must be really hard to be gay and be married, I was so ridiculously drunk at this stage, I don't know what I started to blubber. Gay man left and me and spanish boy started kissing. I made him stop because it was in bad taste in a place like that and I didn't want my lecturer to see. I really didn't like spanish boy at all and was tiring of his broken english so I said I had to talk to my colleagues. I sat beside my lecturer and said, resuce me. When spanish boy tried to take me back, he got very rude to him so spanish boy left. At one stage lecturer put his hand on my knee and I realised I was really really after some of the s word at this stage. It was really hard trying to control myself , be dignified for the masses. A gang of us all went back to the lecturers place and this other boy, (I really do sound like the narrow wizard) who was sitting beside me started rubbing the side of my leg subtely as a political discussion raged between the others. I got scared that the lecturer would see and didn't remotely fancy him so moved far away. Its weird though because everyone thinks he is really good looking and fancies him but I think he looks like an axe murderer and don't find it that appealing. I think he thought something was going to happen because as we were going for a taxi, I stopped to talk to some scottish boys in kilts and got a shock when I saw their willies. Then one of them pinned me to the gates of stephens green and even though Iwasn't scared the others thought I was and sent axe murderer boy over to rescue me. I think I may have been a little over exurberant in my thanking him for the rescue even though I didn't mind the scottish boys pranks at all , I'm very fond of my scottish counterparts even if they are ugly. Well anyway, the conversation about parliamentary politics soon came to a close and the boys made their exits. Then was no point in me going anywhere because I live so very far away so I stayed on lecturers sofa. I heard him going to the toilet and said , did you wash your hands ? as a private joke between us , he lingered in the hallway making silly comments , timewasting ones so that I wouldn't hassle him. In a completely contrived manner I went out "to make sure" he washed them and for some reason jumped into his bed. Despite all our silliness beforehand , I think this surprised him and I realised he really was tired. I gave him a hiccy anyway and this morning he started giving out saying that it left a mark. I didn't care though, I told him to say it was a heat rash. He made me not walk with him to college and I had to take a different route which took a very long time. I don't know if he thinks I fancy him or not. I don't now...yuk...but I really did then. MAybe he thinks I was just teasing him. I'm not afraid of him though. Hes afraid of me. Ha ha ha . Today I found out that I failed my fire alarm test which means I have to repeat that, if I fail again I lose my job. Grrr I hate having the threat of losing my job hanging over my head. I haven't seen anyone yet today to tell them that I failed my test and did silly things last night but it is very early , I keep forgetting. Oh another funny thing was in the lecturers house he was playing awful 1920s music and I said put on the gentle waves, because see hes a real snob and hates popular culture so I always take popular cultures side and he said okay in a pleasaant way and put on soothing music he has of dolphin sounds. At the time, I found this hilariously funny but its quite poor I realise now. So there. Smut levels are almost as high as the time I had three boyfriends at the same time, but that happened too long ago to bring up. If you read this far, you are a completely pervvy person and have disgusted me. _____________________________________________________________________________ Denise Power. +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: Bible bashing
by Erica MacArthur 18 Feb '00

18 Feb '00

Dearest Crapheads, Religion and Lesbians seem to have come up a bit recently, so here's a story which involves the two. Me and the Christian faith aren't really the best of friends. It stems from a holiday I went on with my church a few years ago - it was at Butlins, kind of like a Bible-bashing-Bowlie, only it was called 'Spring Harvest'. On the first day there was a debate for people my age (then 14/15) about being Gay and being a Christian. I was pro-gay, but the other side cut me down with 'witty' phrases such as "It's Adam and Eve, not Adam and Steve!" Followed by, "yeah, why are YOU so keen? You're a LESBIAN aren't you!" complete with pointing and laughing. Needless to say, I turned the cheek. Yes, I was a strong girl. That was until I ran to the toilet and banged my fists against things, sobbing. Anyway, better things.. Velocity farewell spooned us out another helping of verbal sugar: >Erica McArthur... well, I'm a bit confussed about >Erica... You and me both, honey. 'Confussed', what a brilliant word! A bit like 'Gallavant', which was the name of a netzine me and my friend Matthew started up but never really finished. It exists in the cyberspace graveyard now (http://www.gallavant.ukgateway.net/) - beautifully made with absolutely no content. It started from a misspelling on my account, but we later decided it's a mixture of the words 'Gallant' and Gallavent'. If we really did start up a Sinister Village Velocity, I could work in the Sweet Shop because I have prior experience in the Cola Cubes/Sherbet Lemons dept. I'd be the fashion designer but I don't think everyone would be too pleased with me confiscating their cords and trainers and replacing them with three-button suits and teddy boy shoes. I bet they'd go down well at Peter's Disco, though.

Hello sweeties, Mr Jeepster said this to the newsgroup. I thought you all might want to know too. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Thu, 17 Feb 2000 18:07:08 +0000 From: David Kitchen <david(a)jeepster.co.uk> Subject: Re: live date...or rumor... Newsgroup: alt.music.belle+sebastian ok, here's the news as on the site::: LATEST NEWS: the 1st march recording session for the john peel show has regrettably been cancelled so the band can put the finishing touches to the forthcoming album. it is hoped that this will be re-scheduled soon. Also, just received this from Mandi Freeman at Radio 1 in Scotland: Thought I'd drop you a note to let you know that I'm just back from Cava Studios in Glasgow where we were recording a tribute session to Ennio Morricone, featuring Isobel. The band recorded 2 numbers for Session in Scotland. Isobel sang "Argomenti" - originally recorded by Astrid Gilberto - and it's just beautiful. The second track was The Good The Bad & The Ugly - well it had to be, really! The band included Mick Slaven (Leopards), Bill Wells (collaborator with the likes of Future Pilot and Telstar Ponies), and David Scott (Pearlfishers). Both songs will air on the Session in Scotland on Thursday 2 March (Radio 1, Scotland only, 8 'til 10 pm). A tribute night for Ennio Morricone will also be held on 11th March 2000 entitled MONDO MORRICONE. The venue is to the Cowane Theatre (69 Cowane St, Stirling, FK8 1JP. Tel: 01786 462367). There will be performances on the night by artists from: Belle & Sebastian, Teenage Fanclub, BMX Bandits, The Pearlfishers, The Vaselines, The Pastels.

Sinister: Quick, only ten minutes til Corrie
by Martin Rissbrook 17 Feb '00

17 Feb '00

Firstly, an apology to Honey for saying in the chatroom the other night that I thought his subject line story idea would lead to a load of disorganised pants. On the odd day or two that I could be arsed to put them together it seemed to be working just fine, which proves that I know bugger all about bugger all, and that you should never argue the toss with your parents, who are invariably older and wiser than you. Changing the subject, as another avid Queer as Fuck watcher, it should be pointed out that the last series was the best selling Channel 4 video EVAH! So there. Better even than "Ali G", or "15-1: too rude for TV" It's THAT good. And as Ailsa mentioned Celtic's humbling by the mighty Caledonian Thistle, I thought I'd share the best football headline EVAH! Super Cally Go Ballistic, Celtic are Atrocious! Even though it came from the evil scum sucking Sun, it's still dead good! And as for the obligatory Stu D leaving opinion: Couldn't care less, Looper are desperatley poor and the last album was just awful!! So there. AND he was a miserable sod in the old chatroom and some of us have very long memories!! Have a good weekend all!
