Your first paragraph was very humorousWith my luck, I'd end up renting the apartment right beneath Samsa's, and he'd be blasting MJ at all ungodly hours. I'd thud on the ceiling with a broom, hollering "turn that shit down!" and he'll yell back "I'm not taking orders from a black-clad 14-yr-old atheist!"
It looks like Sweden is only 5% Muslim and, worse, the government supports Israel. Le Monde tells me: "for many years, the Scandinavian kingdom had been one of the Western countries most committed to the Palestinian cause, but since the Hamas terrorist attack on October 7, the country, now governed by the right, has shown almost unwavering support for Israel." Boo hiss.
The most famous Swedish convert to Islam was the artist Ivan Aguéli, an anarcho-esoteric Sufi Muslim who at a glance seems pretty great. He was friends with the French vegetarian activist Marie Huot and once fired shots at a matador to protest bullfighting. This is good to have learned. Now I know what kind of Islam to take up: the Islam of Ivan Aguéli. Ideally I would move to a European/American expatriate community in Indonesia and frequent a Dutch-colonial salon where all the bohemian Muslim converts come together to waste their afternoons drinking tea, smoking hashish, and grumbling with resentment towards the West. Aguéli was a handsome fellow (he could almost be Amber Heard's cousin) and his art is not bad either.
What’s a tote bag ?So can you get me a manics tote bag?!?!
A cloth carrier bag! They were selling them at the concert in Vancouver and i stupidly didn't buy one because I didn't know I loved the manics yet! If you see one at the concert buy it for me!! I'll pay you back!!What’s a tote bag ?
Your first paragraph was very humorous
Unfortunately, the rest was, well, just your
Usual ranting and raving shit.
I aint got no money. How long can I stay with you? I'm looking for a place to live. I'll need a job too. Can you do that for me, baldy??Eat shit, Bitch.
Why you not going to the Manics no more?
Probably coz, you ain’t got no man
To pay for you… presumably ??
Then you need to be whipping more fat guys
Ass for the money, honey.
As discussed months ago,
Lodgings at my abode would be free,
Especially now that I’m not into
Over weight, self harmers with ugly hands.
I’m centre left…..Of course you’d think so. Your “Labour to my death/Labour to the deaths of innocent Palestinian children” party has abandoned the prickly wisdom of Jeremy Corbyn, lost George Galloway (a convert to Islam), and is coasting on venal milquetoast centrism. They even threw that poor guy under the bus who suggested Israel allowed October 7th as a premise for genocide. Gore Vidal said the same thing about 9/11 and got pilloried for it. Democrats, Labour—you’re just the boring left wing of the neoconservative, Zionist military-industrial complex. Now where I ask you can a person find some quality hashish in Jakarta?
Not this YET AGAINI aint got no money. How long can I stay with you? I'm looking for a place to live. I'll need a job too. Can you do that for me, baldy??
Reasons McFate won't end participation in this thread:I started this thread with a picture of a bearded, long-haired apocalypticist, so I'll end my participation with another.
What nerve he has thinking he can just walk away from his own Jesus thread!!Reasons McFate won't end participation in this thread:
1. In the honoured tradition of NWL, Sam will claim not to wade back in but can't help taking a dip (twice already)
2. Luce hasn't heard my one disc Exile on Main St (the Stones' Gospel album) tracklisting yet
3. When we avoid the insults Aub has set up an interesting rewarding thread
4. No-one is demanding a Barabbas thread from LS
one of my faves from
I think so. Hes been on a journey for a long time. I recognize a seeker when I see one.
Well yeah, because it would seem incongruous to Piers Morgan's character. Whereas it seems natural that Russell was always on a journey toward finding God. I think it's good that Russell speaks out about it because it might inspire other people to find their own path toward God, people who maybe thought that Christianity was just for squares.I find it more dignified to find Christ quietly and privately.
What if someone less likable (if that’s even possible) and less “good-looking”, someone without the Jesus hair and the “sexy chest”, someone like, say, Piers Morgan, had numerous allegations of rape made against him and became a born again Christian a few weeks later and announced it to the whole f***ing world? Wouldn’t you be at least a little suspicious?

I agree with you on the lameness of Happy. That Keith Richards-hijacked throw-away is the worst thing on Exile on Main St. and would stick out even worse on a single album. The lesson of not letting Keith sing lead was not learned, though, and it ruins Little T&A which is actually a terrific song. If Mick Jagger had sung it, that one would've been an absolute Stones classic.
INSIGHTfUL!I’ve been nagging you, Aubs, but it’s been an interesting thread.
Are you still looking for a Muslim country to move to? You could move to Sweden! Many brothers in faith, many pro-Palestine manifestations to attend, and the chicks all look like Amber Heard (and would probably appreciate a knowledgeable American contrarian)!
In one context- I am being called square by Kermit the Frog on an internet forum run by Morrissey fans and former fans, in a thread about Jesus.
& anyone that would keep ‘Happy’ in their Exile as a single album list… totally square.
