FW: Sinister: You know what I don't understand?
Hi listees, Maybe we can have this stop if I just forward every nasty email I get from Carmen to the list? I'm getting sick of this.

Hello listees,
This may not interest all of you, but in all fairness, after being on this list for many months, I have to say this is unnecessarily rude.
Just for the record - I don't think there is room on this list for name-calling. Definitely not in the spirit of Belle & Sebastian.

The topic is Belle and Sebastian, silly. Not all of it is about music on this list here. I do trash what I don't like. I was just giving my opinion and all I get in return are snotty little girls replying who think I don't have a right to share my own opinion. Would you like it if I sent all of my trash to you?

It's always about the music, even the tangents.
This is a gentle Canadian chill for you. I suggest you trash what you don't like and let everyone be silly once in a while. That's what I've been doing for months now.

You know what I don't understand? Why is it that every time I check my mail, I have 175 emails all from the Sinister Belle and Sebastian fan club list, and usually none of them have anything to do with Belle and Sebastian. Why is this? I end up not even reading most of them because I know that if one is about Belle and Sebastian, it's about how Stuart Murdoch and Isobel might be a couple-who cares? I don't think either of them enjoy your assumptions of their relationship. Try keeping on the topic, please.

Okay, lurkers opinion here. This was a really nice list and though I couldn't quite relate to many of the posts, initially (particularly those gushing about how wonderful B&S were live... grrr... the cancelled Toronto show will live in infamy, but I digress), it surprised me how polite and friendly everyone was. Well I still think you're all wonderful folk, but I also think everyone needs to figure out exactly what they're looking for from this list. The simple fact is, it's a bunch of people with one big thing in common (devotion to B&S), who generally enjoy conversing with each other about whatever they like. While I can understand maybe being frustrated with a mailbox overflowing with Sinister letters (like Monday mornings when I come into work and have over 250 messages... that's a good solid 2 hours of not working, so I'm not complaining...), the fact is that is what this list is. If threads get way off topic, well, there's not much you can do about it. I hope this doesn't sound nasty (cause that's not how it's intended), but if you don't like what the list is, unsubscribe, or start your own. I've joined many lists and removed myself from nearly as many, for exactly these reasons. And really, what would Stuart say if he saw us bickering like this? This is not the world B&S intended.
