Sinister: ooh, watch it

[Alix Campbell]

darling listy wisty

i am not easily offended, but what upsets me is people telling others what
to write, or not to write. Carmen's post wasn't very nice, and inaccurate.
It's not as if the topic is so far removed from B&S that we continually talk
about australasian sheep farming techniques, or the like. if we talked
exclusively about b&S,  where would we be? discussions concerned solely with
the middle eight of mary jo?, the merits of the slow version of seeing other
people?. interesting - yes, but not forever. The point is, the lives and
opinions of the listees are frequently
more interesting and funny than staying on topic. And who's to say that this
isn't the topic anyway?
Tear me apart and boil my bones, but being patronising is no way to win
friends. But
perhaps she doesn't want to. If so, i'd assume that maybe she expects
something different from a list. So, my apologies, Carmen, i'm glad you like
B&S, but you don't seem interested in the other people who like them too,
and surely that is an integral part to this list?. But anyway, chances are
she won't read this; there's no b&s content.

this is the last time i'm going to be so horrid.

*****yes I KNOW i've been just as patronising, and opinionated.

might have to kill you, which wouldn't be fair. On me"  - Prolapse 'Killing

wot carmen sed.........

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.

Kindly,
...CARMEN...
