Because MORRISSEY RIDES A COCKHORSE.

/obscure?

Ah, what the hell. I have five seconds to spare.

You left out complaining, biatching, and tearing down his ex-bandmates so none of us will ever get to see a Smiths reunion tour.

*sob*

but what of moping, what of yearning for deeper meaning in this vapid superficial world subby???

Stop me if you think you've heard this one before, but that joke isn't funny anymore.

BunkoSquad: Ah, what the hell. I have five seconds to spare.

That right there is the perfect reply. My day has actually been made brighter for having read that.

My favorite thing about Morrisey is that he sends people into a homosexual panic. It's like going to an early Fear concert. Apparently allusions to Oscar Wilde and Gregorian chanting trigger a deep seeded primal fear response.

Eh, I'm over the fact there won't be a Smiths reunion tour. Unless Johnny Marr promises to bludgeon Morissey on stage with his guitar at some random point in the tour, I can live without it. "Lead singer in a coma..."

"Did I mention that I cried?"

BKITU: "Did I mention that I cried?"

"...breakfast, actually."

Morrissey is the emo that all other emos aspire to be.

Nabb1: "Lead singer in a coma..."

Oh noes! It are serious.

Ugh. This joke isn't funny anymore.

is he finally going to admit that he's gay?

brap

Really? I never saw that. I have only noticed two camps when Morissey comes up in conversation, the "he's a whiny douche" and the "shut up, he's a fukking genius".

Is he really gay?

I never said he was in a homosexual panic. I know nothing about his sexuality but he's attractive and effete and used to claimed to be completely celibate, which I always found interesting and completely alien.

Yes, I'll read his book.

I HEART that clip!!!

Good call!

/I love the disdain that Fear shows to their audience...

I'm writing this to say
In a gentle way
Thank you, but no.

I suspect a good chapter will be devoted to hating friends who became successful.

RodneyToady: BKITU: "Did I mention that I cried?"

Watched that episode last night.

"This is F-U-N."

Why do Morrissey and Bruce Campbell look more alike the older they get?

I wish everybody would lay off Morrissey.

He is human. And he needs to be loved. Just like everybody else does.

200 pages will be devoted to crying, 135 pages will focus on lamenting, and no less than four chapters will center on whining

Just like Daily Kos.

I will read it. I love Morrissey. I have been listening to him since the late 80s.

My husband's imitation of him is hilarious.

that headline made me laugh so hard i cried a little. well done, subby

Heaven knows he's miserable now.

We all remember the Warlock Pinchers, dude.

The Smiths were way better.

Morrissey reveals plans for an autobiography. 200 pages will be devoted to crying, 135 pages will focus on lamenting, and no less than four chapters will center on whining how to be an Annoying Vegan^TM

FTFY, but other than that spot on.

And maybe a page or two devoted to putting Band Aids on your nipples?

/crossing fingers

I read it and Heaven knows I'm miserable now, every day was like sunday, every day is silent and grey.

Lets hope he heeds hsi own advice:
"if you must write prose and poems the words you use should be your own, dont plagiarise or take "on loan" there's alweays someone, somewhere, with a big nose, who knows and who trips you up and laughs when you fall"

Morrisey is one of the funniest lyricists ever, (although I get the impression a lot of people don't see him that way) I hope the book is as witty as his songs.

at last! at last! at last!

Looking forward to his new album - really liked his last two.

If they've ever heard an interview with him, they'd realize he's almost always halfway taking the piss.

He's much cooler than he lets on.

Bookstores are reportedly on alert for united shoplifters.

Is anyone else as disturbed as I am that the NFL is using a Morrissey song in their ads? So, so wrong.

YES! Not only that, but it's been redone in Country Western! Such an odd song to choose, I mean, I get that "Sunday" is in the title and the chorus, but really, isn't the song lamenting Sundays?

Still, Marisa Miller in the commercial made it easier to take.

In the days when he was helplessly poor, i just liked him more.

That's the story of your life, I guess. I'll look for you at the Y...WCA.

What a coincidence... I'm trying to get a job there as a back scrubber!

You shut your mouth!

How can you say he goes about things the wrong way?

WTF

Please explain.

Disturbed? No. Suprised? Yes.

The NFL is using Every Day Is Like Sunday by Morrissey in one of their ads. I was half paying attention to the TV on the first week of football when that came on and briefly heard the song. At first I couldn't believe it but by the next commercial break it was confirmed. Unfortunately the NFL doesn't use Moz's version.

The NFL and Morrissey. Just a weird combo.

astrochimp:

No kidding. Does the NFL's version make any references to people wishing armageddon would strike their dreary seaside town, or do they just use the chorus?

It's some generic version of the song and it's not very prominent within the commercial. It's only within the last 5 to 10 seconds where you can clearly figure out that it's Everyday Is Like Sunday which are also the only words that are used from the song.

THIS.

he's a farkin' riot.
I'm feeling sad for those of you who never saw the Smiths live. or maybe not.
