To think Morrissey should just shut the fuck up?

Bigmouth strikes again

Seriously, pipe the fuck down. You're not zany and controversial, neither are you the rambling-national-treasure-with-a-soupcon-of-racism that you clearly think you are. You're just a daft twat whose unsavoury views (victim blaming, that's a new one!) are ruining The Smiths for everyone.

Just hush now. Please.

One can only wonder if the interviewee has his own skeletons waiting to tumble out of their own closets.......

Exactly.

It is sad to me that this kind of victim blaming regardng sexual assault is still so common in the 21st century. Makes me Sad

MayFayner · 19/11/2017 20:31

Ah for fuck's sake Morrissey. Dfriend and I were just saying what an insufferable twat he is now, just in general. But this is unforgivable.

Morrissey is a very talented and, dare I say it, handsome man. I trust him to know what's up and his music speaks to me. Maybe stick to Beyonce sweetie

Way too blatant.

Sweetie.

More of a Cradle of Filth sort of girl, actually.

Imagine still admitting to being a Morrissey fan in 2017 when he hasn’t released a decent record in over a decade and continues to spout racist, bigoted, ignorant bile on a regular basis.* How embarrassing.*

AnyFucker · 19/11/2017 21:19

How sad. Sweetie.

TheVanguardSix · 19/11/2017 21:27

I adored (and still do love) The Smiths. I got their first album when I was 12. But I truthfully credit Johnny Marr. He was the genius of the band. Don't hate the band because of one idiot.

Hadn't read his comments regarding Kevin Stacey's victim but what a king-sized tool Morrissey is. But he's been a tool spouting dreadful rubbish for yeeeears. Nothing new there.

TheVanguardSix · 19/11/2017 21:28

Stacey=Spacey
Sorry.

Anymajordude · 19/11/2017 21:33

He's a massive twat and an embarrassment and he's spoiling my teenage years. Yes he should STFU and fuck off.

No amount of talent (not that I think he has a great deal), or handsomeness (long gone in his case) makes him truthful or credible.

You would be well to remember:
It's always tempting to impute
Unlikely virtues to the cute

And your patronising putdown, claiming that twat as some kind of indie hero, and those who dislike him as mainstream sellouts is pathetic.

PoppyPopcorn · 19/11/2017 21:35

To be fair, a lot of people have been saying that for the last 30 years.

TheVanguardSix · 19/11/2017 21:37

Absolutely Poppy. He was a twat when I moved to London in the early 90s. Nothing new. Nothing to see here folks. Just Morrissey being a dick is all.

Floellabumbags · 19/11/2017 21:37

Johnny Marr was the talent in that band. Mozza is a gobby shitbag with the charm of a dose of haemorrhoids.

Pawpainting · 19/11/2017 21:43

Used to love the smiths. DH got us tickets to see Morrissey for our first wedding anniversary. He still has an amazing voice but after he went on a rant about "ugly dykes" or similar during the show I can't listen anymore. He is a horrible bitter person and a racist misogynist. Not surprised he is a rape apologist too

ShatnersBassoon · 19/11/2017 21:45

Not only should this boy have been mature enough to have anticipated an assault, but he should also have been with his feckless parents at all times. Thanks for that insight Steve, you monumental shitwit.

It's remarkable that this prattle from such a has-been was deemed to be worth publishing.

TinklyLittleLaugh · 19/11/2017 21:48

No I think Morrissey was equally the talent in the Smiths. But having talent doesn't make you a decent person.

twattymctwatterson · 19/11/2017 21:51

Morrissey is a cunt so new cuntiness from him fails to illicit a response from me now.

I wonder if Morrissey says things to stir up trouble. Not that is makes them less objectionable.

Agree about the talent of Johnny Marr.

StrangeLookingParasite · 19/11/2017 22:27

Fuck off love. We need more people like him. More people telling the truth.

Oh please. The truth? Wouldn't know it if it bit him on the bum.

AgentCooper · 19/11/2017 22:28

He is such a prick nowadays. A really petulant attention seeker. Which is very sad, considering he wrote songs like Half a Person, Back to the Old House, There is a Light etc.

Agree about Johnny Marr being ridiculously talented. And a very decent guy by all accounts.
