Your Funeral ... My Cancellation

_I did in fact make this up and trusted the audience to infer the meaning from context, like you used to back before everyone stopped thinking

nuance is good though

I saw other references to the nuancepill elsewhere, they can’t all be you, can they?

I think you all missed out on the subtext of his story that the Queen is actually his own mother...and he'll be crowned King Ink instead of Charles.

xps I didn’t know it was a term that had been used but apparently other ppl have also been irritated enough at the thought terminating clichés of soi disant moderates to make the same coinage, who knew

Meantime if you were wondering what indeed Mick Harvey is up to

Lol yeah that is a weird one

oh man not gingers

Imagine being so deeply regrettable a country that you think nowhere else in the world knows the difference between public school and private school either.

Nick's current posture -- that to hold any position securely is to signal that you have been ideologically captured -- is surely the most vapid justification yet of his lifelong goal: to ensure that Nick Cave gets to do whatever the hell Nick Cave wants to do, all the time.

— Elvis Buñuelo (@Mr_Considerate) May 2, 2023

he's also just a deeply horrible egomaniac with an awful singing voice imo. And who in the UK actually thinks people in other countries don't know the difference between private/public? you daft twat!

calzino, Wednesday, 3 May 2023 19:34 (one year ago) link

so what's your take on Nick Cave?

I find him repellent in every sense ... oh

calzino, Wednesday, 3 May 2023 19:41 (one year ago) link

And who in the UK actually thinks people in other countries don't know the difference between private/public? you daft twat!

Nick Cave went to public schools in towns 200 and 300km outside Melbourne, until he was expelled from a public school and began attending a public school instead.

I like how two guys on this thread are determined to turn Cave into the new Amanda Palmer

INDEPENDENTS DAY BY STEVEN SPILBERG (President Keyes), Wednesday, 3 May 2023 20:09 (one year ago) link

Or Morrissey

INDEPENDENTS DAY BY STEVEN SPILBERG (President Keyes), Wednesday, 3 May 2023 20:10 (one year ago) link

Honestly I'm surprised Palmer hasn't tried to get her hooks into him now that she's divorced.

Elvis bunuelo articulating what I was drunkenly going for last night

michel goindry (wins), Wednesday, 3 May 2023 20:16 (one year ago) link

I’m not really sure who the two guys are among the last hundred posts of everyone except a few defensive stans agreeing cave is a silly reactionary twat tho, unless one of the guys is nick cave

michel goindry (wins), Wednesday, 3 May 2023 20:18 (one year ago) link

he was expelled from a public school and began attending a public school instead.

ok now I'm confused

stan is a strong word.

The despair of spending so much time keeping tabs on how Nick Cave is wrong about things.

Van Horn Street, Wednesday, 3 May 2023 20:33 (one year ago) link

I went years without ever thinking about Nick Cave. But in the last three or four years he has clearly decided it's time he was talked about more, and his efforts are paying off!

but also fuck you (unperson), Wednesday, 3 May 2023 20:34 (one year ago) link

It didn’t take me that much time to click on this thread and read nick cave being wrong about things, I learned to read English early in life and haven’t forgotten how

michel goindry (wins), Wednesday, 3 May 2023 20:42 (one year ago) link

xxp

what's the despair element about it? And I've only read the quoted segments on the thread, wouldn't waste my time going any further. Whereas with you, this revive is like a siren to you.

calzino, Wednesday, 3 May 2023 20:46 (one year ago) link

i for one have only experienced glee reading the invective against nick cave in this revive.

ꙮ (map), Wednesday, 3 May 2023 21:03 (one year ago) link

I'm sure there are many more people more horrible than Nick Cave, they just have the good sense not to spout off about it in public too much. Although now I'm trying to imagine Blixa attending the coronation and can't quite manage it.

Ned Raggett, Wednesday, 3 May 2023 21:05 (one year ago) link

he's clearly engaged in a long play for the poet laureateship. so mauve.

fetter, Wednesday, 3 May 2023 21:21 (one year ago) link

blixa would kick king charles in the nuts like he did gibby haynes from the butthole surfers

The despair of spending so much time keeping tabs on how Nick Cave is wrong about things.

LOL keeping tabs. I haven't thought about Nick Cave for about 15 years - I literally had never posted in this thread before today. 'Twas only when I found out that he's a miserable toadying bootlicker for the British royal family and a disgrace to his nation that I posted.

every country needs its own Lozza Fox apparently

I mean he makes much better records but "now I do an advice column," you know,...

J Edgar Noothgrush (Joan Crawford Loves Chachi), Wednesday, 3 May 2023 21:44 (one year ago) link

so everyone now dropping off the NC train because of his attendance to this event surely has done the same with any musician/act that's been knighted?

having a hard time thinking of anyone worth caring about in 2023 with a knighthood

Sir Nose D Voidoffunk is my problematic fave.

Daniel_Rf, Wednesday, 3 May 2023 22:10 (one year ago) link

I'm a huge hypocrite as I still listen to Sir Mixalot

contrapuntal aversion (Noodle Vague), Wednesday, 3 May 2023 22:11 (one year ago) link

Nah, once he bent the knee to accept that knighthood Mixalot was dead to me.

Maggot Bairn (Tom D.), Wednesday, 3 May 2023 22:16 (one year ago) link

Mixalot is really leaving money on the table not starting the 1-900-MIXALOT advice podcast.

I remembered Bushwick Bill being Baron Wolfgang Von Bushwickin The Barbarian Mother-Funky Stay High Dollar Billster...but he was a Dr.

It always confused me why the army wanted to draft him in “Fuck a War” but maybe they needed his medical expertise.

JoeStork, Wednesday, 3 May 2023 22:21 (one year ago) link

I mean he couldn't be stopped so

contrapuntal aversion (Noodle Vague), Wednesday, 3 May 2023 22:25 (one year ago) link

not unlike Nick Cave's big brain in that respect
