Sinister: Eating my words
by Brandt Fundak 06 Feb '01

06 Feb '01

To the author of "Why We Hate Indie Kids." Thank you for making me almost piss my pants at work. As a wannabe socialist hipster who has poor eyesight and doesn't play guitar I now know why I am failing. tomorrow i will get laser eye surgery, a fake pair of hornrims, "The Wealth of Nations" and a Gibson. I KNEW something would make me post before my six month self imposed exile was up. I just didn't think it would happen so soon. someone needs to post that to the indiepop list.

Sinister: Why we hate hairdressers
by Robin Stout 06 Feb '01

06 Feb '01

Where I come from, a rector is like a vicar, but he lets you stand on the pews if you can't see. Stuart Murdoch is almost a vicar, so I'm sure he'd be very good. Has anyone mentioned Ian McCulloch being signed up by Jeepster? It's on their website. Probably someone has, I just wasn't paying attention. Someone keeps throwing balls of paper at my head. I had my hair cut yesterday. Somehow, whilst performing a difficult hair-cutting manoeuvre on the top of my head, the barber managed to cut his finger and began to bleed over my head. "Sorry mate, it usually stops in a bit" he said, sticking his finger in his mouth. But after a few minutes it was still bleeding, so he sent the other barber off to the chemist for plasters and stood there holding his hand above his head. "Won't be long mate". Bluddy hell, you don't expect that sort of service, do you? In the end my haircut lasted 45 minutes, including injury time. The man having his hair cut in the chair next to me has a friend who once threw a shoe at Noel Gallagher's head. It hit him too. Hooray! That tirade against indie kids was a bit odd. I liked the way they credited all three people who wrote it. I couldn't understand this bit, though. > ... pretending to like the Spice Girls and pretending > to like the Magnetic Fields and pretending to like each > other ...

Sinister: I don't love townie ones
by Kenneth P Y Chu 06 Feb '01

06 Feb '01

Hello, I felt so depressed yesterday, all of the things I planned for didn't work out, it was terrible, even though nothing abnormally bad has happened (the worse was just a rejection for the job application), I have certainly had worse days. I think it was because nothing good was happening at all, and I felt that it was the lull before a big storm as everything seemed to be taking a turn for the worse, and I wanted to cry for the first time in years, it didn't quite work tho unfortunately, so I just drank some Red Bull instead. And someone really sweet cheered me up at the end of the day. So I'm happy again. Erm :) I thought I'll carry on the "Human Tribes" personal profile with episode #2 - "Townies" 1) They are townies, enough said. 2) Industrial Strenth puffer jackets, an attempt to give the impression of having a large build (and therefore a large you know what) by wearing a puffed up jacket. Possibly also to act as additional air bags whilst drink driving in their Ford Escort XR3i. 3) Townies are at it like rabbits, or boasts to be. Townie boys are often found telling others about how he pulled some girl and shagged her, but of course the girl normally was either incapacitated due to spiked drinks or drugs, or just easy. 4) It's good that most townie kids are always in clubs drinking beer, because it distracts them from being in clubs as a DJ, or worse, making their "contribution" by making more dance music with pumping beats which is totally distinguishable from other dance music "tunes". The particularly talented ones can even fade in from one CD to another smoothly. 5) The one unique thing about townie boys is the serial number on the label of their designer shirt, actually the price tags are also sometimes different. I think a "Paul Smith" gear costs more than a "John Clark" or "Nigel Dimbleton" one. 6) Townie kids have a very good broad range of music, from dance to hip-hop to Tom Jones, all great. 7) Townie boys (esp the ones in this University) are often found indulging in adult activities such as stripping naked in public, and of course food fights... in fact any actions that come under the category of "making a twat out of yourself" would probably be a favourite townie activity. 8) On the rare occasion that Townie people are in a relationship (rather than just having "pulled"), they treat each other like crap, that's probably because they learnt about relationships by watching Hollyoakes, or maybe Ibiza Uncovered. 9) I can go on forever, so I'll stop :) Notice the use of "boys" in the description.. that's because I like townie girls... they wear very nice dresses. Ahem. I'll get my coat :) Sweet girls in dresses and Red Bulls Ken ====================================================================== I don't love anything, not even Christmas, especially not that. - Belle & Sebastian +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: Dale Winton's just been shot!
by Ian Nicolson 06 Feb '01

06 Feb '01

Maybe we should do a tribute... 'I will be the first person in history to die of boredom' Is that possible, do you know? To actually DIE of BOREDOM? I think I should maybe be taken to intensive care post haste. I can imagine my work people coming back after lunch and finding me slumped in my chair. 'Help ma boab!', they'd exclaim, 'what happened?!'. 'Well, he WAS very bored...' I work in a place where we look at death registers all day (just how bleak is that?!), but I've yet to come across one that has cause of death as 'bored as bejaysus'. So I will be the first. Maybe I should go to the doctors. 'Life, friends, is boring. We must not say so.' Rachel spoke (typed?) about listening to personal stereos too loudly. I was once told off by a man in a suit for listening to 'Tigermilk' too loudly on a bus. I felt like a walking Sinister cliche. And I was in Leith, where lots of tough people live. I thought I might get battered. 'Fuckin' poofs music...' Some chancer called Tom Ewing told us how much he bloody hates indie kids. Me too, the cunts. All glasses and flares. National service, that's the answer. God help us if there's a war. They'd be tripping over their laces and moaning about having to get up too early in the morning. A fortnight down the pits would sort them out. What pits? Is it alright to think that the Trembling Blue Stars are flipping awful? You won't all beat me up, will you? Jings, I'm bored... _________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com. +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: sinister playlists and nightmares
by Andrea Kittenmouse 06 Feb '01

06 Feb '01

Hello, Just got done with my show about an hour ago...hasn't anyone heard it yet? It's on the web now, y'know...do you want to know what I play? Cause I can tell you a bit...here's a list of some of the bands I played today... Air (Virgin Suicides sdtk.)//Cat Power//Elliott Smith//Velvet Underground//Belle and Sebastian//Mark Robinson//Dressy Bessy//Smoking Popes//Modest Mouse//The Donnas//Vehicle Flips//Gentle Waves//Mary Timony//Blonde Redhead//PJ Harvey//Jim O'Rourke etc. See...now aren't you disappointed you didn't tune in? That's OK, I guess...there's always next week. I'm doing a special valentine's day show next week (it's not ON valentine's day, it's monday night, but valentine week show...argh, whatever)...as a matter of fact, if you could tell me some good love songs you want to hear, I'm trying to make a playlist of good love songs for the show. So email me and tell me some that you want to hear, OK? I had a strange dream the other night that would make a great movie (and creepy). In the dream, there were these tiny tiny people (two of them) who were trying to escape from this normal size (giant to them) rich man who collects the tiny 3 inch high people and keeps them in little drawers in a big cabinet in his big house. Except the tiny people are alive, and they don't like being kept in drawers so they try to escape. Wouldn't that make a weird movie? It was a weird dream, that's for sure. Yours, Andrea www.kpsu.org (that's where you can listen to the show, mondays 8-10 pm pacific standard time) _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

...longlostlostdom back to whisper a few rather cheeky secrets or stories or missplaced rantings or whatever it is that you beloved kids dub my posts...if you dub them at all, that is... i (ah the sacred letter of the egocentric) am always curious as to whether i fall into the "good posts today..." or the "not-so good posts" category...(and i pose adorable when curious, so you have something nice to look at while i am not entertaining you...) somehow magnetic feilds has never managed to grace the crackle of our shitty bar sound system since that one fateful saturday evening...yet TK's CORRAL is having 60's night...? where all the hippies ride electric bulls 'ore the plains and the mod-sters have a swide and stagger like john wayne and drink too much whiskey and line-dance drunkenly to the beatles and dylan...? i too am baffled beneath my rhine-stone cowboy hat.... then again...only country western could come up with a song based around "memphis women and fried chicken" which i so wit-ily mistake for "memphis chicken and fried women"...(pish) and if you've gotten to this point your head-scratching and mouthing: ok, lisa...but haven't you lost a step or two, doll? whatever happened to that oh-so present smut... truth: i have to write a love poem for my lit analysis class and the very thought of love has sucked the life from my vital parts like a vaccuum cleaner, which i suppose whould be a more appealing metaphor if i were a male, but... what do you say about love when there's nothing left to say about it...? -listdomlisa in academic distress that leaves me smut-less... _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: Bigmouth Strikes Again
by Rachel 06 Feb '01

06 Feb '01

my oh my: it is my third post, and do you have any idea what that means??? do you? do you really? it means i am just not going to go away. it means i will continue to turn up like a bad penny or a misspelled vegetable... oh dear, that was a very bad pun wasn't it? so it's monday night and i have a zillion more important things to do that are due much too soon, so of course the only logical thing to do was to sit at my computer and catch up with sinister.. even spent some time in #sinister, which, if you're one of the regulars there, you'll know is rare. oh well, i am feuding with my best friend at the moment, so its nice to spend some time in such a comfortable and (usually) non-feudal atmosphere. (with exceptions going to the napster debate, notably) my own private feud hopefully will end soon, since it really is over the most retarded issue... we fought over movies, which makes sense only if you know one or two pertinent facts: 1)my friend can never be wrong 2)i am tolerant and meek most times 3)i am not tolerant and meek when i am tired and hungover 4)it was saturday. 5)saturday comes directly after friday but it was monday today which was better, even despite the 8:30 english class. it was so very early when i woke up (having work yet to do on my essay due in said english class) that i was able to fool myself into believing it was not actually morning at all, but rather the middle of a lovely dark night with no classes looming on the horizon for hours yet... its a sort of sad delusion, but it got me out of bed. content: i have some! (but i'm not going to tell you unless you give me your lunch money) yes, i am. i can't resist, it involves sequins and opera and police caps. so. there i am, sitting in the costume shop, toiling away at my practical work hours, sewing sequins on a police cap for a wonderful play called Gloria Star, while stabbing myself repeatedly with the needle and growing irritable at the opera music which plays perpetually while we sweatshoppers sweat and swear into our needle-pricked hands. so i take out my discman, which just happens to have fishyclap inside, put on my headphones, and descend into a sort of twee-ish, existential bliss. I skip the first three songs which i have heard on the walk over. i am happily sewing away in oblivion, when halfway through nice day for a sulk, a tap on the shoulder brings me back into the cruel world and i look up to see seven incredulous faces watching me as i realize that my cheap headphones have been blessing everyone within ten or twelve metres with the lovely melodies of belle & sebastian. and what's more, they are not impressed. i press the off button and hide my head in shame. WHAT are you LIStening to, Rachel, one asks. i hear echoes of Yeah, what the HELL was THAT? it is a malevolent chorus of sneers that serenades the last minutes of my time in costumes. and then i went home and put on 3..6..9 seconds of light and in seconds my mood improves and everything is happily ever after. well, my subject title really does seem to be appropriate today, doesn't it? Sorry, sorry, i know, we have better things to do with our lives than contemplate my bad prose. so i will end here, except for my final note to anyone interested about a lovely lovely song i found on (insert expletive or praise, you know what i'm talkin bout) the other day, called Pure, by Pulling Jessica's Hair. I urge you all to find and listen. There is something about it that is just.... well, if it were a book it would be un-put-down-able. au revoir, Rachel ACADEME, n.

Sinister: broken household appliance, national forest
by Rachel Playforth 06 Feb '01

06 Feb '01

oops, i did it again. couldn't resist though - somehow grandaddy manage to provide aptly surreal sinister post titles without even trying. well, i now have a tattoo. it hardly hurt at all. really. and i'm normally quite wussy. took pleasure in torturing the needle-phobic friends later though. and stuart's face looks quite nice there peeping out from my cleavage... NOT REALLY :) i'm not that much of a fan/that stupid. my housemate's friend got 'the shamen' tattooed on her ankle when she was 16... really timeless, that. i wasn't completely brave beforehand, i must admit, and the thrash metal background music didn't help my anxiety. i then got very jumpy at a mysterious roaring/buzzing/drilling sound from the next room. 'what are they doing in there?' i whispered nervously to moral support nicola. 'that's a vacuum cleaner, rachel'. ah. meanwhile, i have discovered something distressing: i *know* that somewhere in the house i have a tape with 'loneliness of the...' on it. i distinctly remember taping it, though from what is a slight mystery and did make me wonder for a second if i had imagined the whole thing. i certainly can't find the tape anywhere, and i've checked all those 'end of tape' spaces that i usually use to tape stuff off the radio. i remember seeing it on the tube, but i have definitely heard and recorded it since. can someone at least confirm that it was played on radio 1 sometime during last year, so i can renew my search knowing that i'm not mad? i want it! i'm glad that signor miller provided us with the correct adjective pertaining to 'rector', as i tried to put the stuff about tongues in arses and people throwing their weight behind other people out of my pure little mind. (though my sister would have me think that now i've got a tattoo i am forever sullied anyway - this from the girl who pierced her own nose. i don't *get* teenagers. and that makes me a bad b&s fan, obviously, but never mind.) now i have to go and reply to one of those emails which should really have been the start of a serious face to face conversation, but both the protagonists are too cowardly, lazy and evasive to make it one. the curse of the modern interweb. luv archel xxx *************************************** Rachel Playforth 'She may not be famous, but she's right' - Homer Simpson For the best in new writing on the web, visit www.buzzwords.org.uk Contact us on buzzwords(a)bigfoot.com +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: Please forgive me, I know not what I do, Please forgive me, I can't stop loving you - Bryan Adams.
by Ruvi Simmons 06 Feb '01

06 Feb '01

I have, since last writing, been accumulating, hoarding like a tired, shivering squirrel, subject matter to include in this epistle. I would like to declare, conclusively and without doubt, that it is going to be profound, but I fear I would be lying. I suppose I could write about the state of modern art, the vacuity of social interactions, or any number of other subjects that have recently been pressing on my mind, but I am not inclined to do so in the depths of this particular night, which is, to me, like a rather pleasant womb of tranquility, when I can reside safe in the knowledge that, all around me, watching, unkind eyes are slumbering with the peacefulness of the thoughtless. What I am inclined to write about, however, is pornography. More specifically, just to assure any blushing virgins who may read that dread word that I am not going to be particularly smutty, I want to write about phone sex ads. I was flicking through a copy of Time Out earlier in the week when I came to the Classified section. Now, I may well be remembering things through the wistful, rose-tinted glasses of nostalgia, but I recall there was time when phone sex ads were really rather brilliant, or at least they were to a young boy such as I once was. They used to contain a girl in startlingly few clothes and a wonderful, unforgettable epithet such as (and here I am partly working from memory, partly from imagination) "I'm moist and waiting for you" or, even more superbly, "I've just wet myself". Imagine the effect this had on a pre-pubescent boy! They were shocking, bewildering, and utterly fantastic. I used to gaze in wonder at these adverts, which could be found in virtually any magazine, hoarding their shameless proclamations in the murkier depths of my mind. Going back to the Time Out Classified section however and, probably thankfully, away from my dubious recollections, things have changed. Girls recline listlessly in hot pants and lycra tops looking like they've just staggered out of a club in Romford, or flash a vacuous smile, and alongside are such boring pieces of text as, "A little bit of what you fancy does you good", and "Pull the hottest girls online now!". What happened? Where are the phone numbers registered to Guyana? I realise that in a world of loss this one is probably very minor but, nevertheless, I mourn for the demise of the truly smutty phone sex lines of which I was once an avowed connoiseur. And, perhaps, in its own way, it is symbolic of something greater. I have thought about how I may go about following up such a paragraph. I would like you all to know that I would dearly love to atone in some way, both for the above and the appaling subject line, but I think it beyond me at the moment. I considered adding in a little poetry at the end, just to elevate the tone, but I don't think that would be particularly fair the poet I chose. The poor, dead wretch would have to endure the shame of his work being placed alongside a meditation on phone sex; it would be profoundly unfair. So I leave things rest, which is something I probably should have done before embarking.
