Juicy, juicy *news cut-n-pasted from Bitchfork,* but I swear I'm going back to work now, for REAL.

end, of my break, i promise

In dicier news: some NME reporter had the great seasonal fortune of tossing back a few with Ryan Adams-- although, quite a few less than Adams, judging from the verbal diarrhea Adams slobbered out the mouth. Adams apparently revealed that, having run out of material (unheard of!) at one particular concert event, he made a snap decision to steal someone else's. And hey, why not a contemporary? Like Jack White, for instance! So, he covers a White Stripes tune, but immediately runs into a problem-- the lyrics are just too... too... oh, dignified, we suppose, so he changed the lyrics. Though what exactly he changed the lyrics to are not being made public, they certainly got a reaction from White, and I think it goes without saying that you don't fuck with a dude in a tight red bodysuit. (Ask Loverboy.)

Adams ran down White's fashion sense, as well as his role in the upcoming film Cold Mountain. "Did Little Girl White talk back? What a fucking movie star," Adams ranted. "I don't have a problem with him-- he started it. I know that's what you say in school. But what's he doing on the Internet, seeing what's being said, saying, 'I see you changed my lyrics'... fucking ponce." According to Adams, the only reason that White gets to add "actor" to his resume is because Adams himself didn't want any part in the film: "I was up for the part first and I turned it down. You know why? Because I didn't see acting anywhere on my job application to be a rock fucking star, you know? It's true. That's fucking fact. I turned it down because we were touring anyway." Hey, jealousy! Do you think it'd be alright if I could just crash here tonight?

Pardon us, but most men would stand naked in Romania for a chance to have Cold Mountain star Nicole Kidman spit on them, so we can only assume Adams is getting some damn fine lovin' on the road. He'll continue his current spate of touring through the New Year, opening for the Rolling Stones in support of his collection of demos and b-sides, Demolition. An official follow-up to 2001's Gold, titled Life is Hell, is due out in March. Adams left Meg White out of his aspersions, but word is he sent a letter that said, "If you switch to my side, I'll be your best friend."

(wuz it also true that adams had this guy who requested a bryan adams song at a club appearance thrown out and refunded and refused to play another song until he was gone recently? heard it made *Time*)

Ryan Adams said ponce? Is this a case of Anglophile suck-up or very liberal quoting?

nabisco (nabisco), Sunday, 15 December 2002 23:29 (twenty-two years ago)

very liberal quoting

I'd guess this.

I think the only reason he posted this thread was to show off his HI-LARIOUS satire of Pitchfork... "Bitchfork"! LOLOL OMG.

You got me there. Has nothing to do with my procrastination illnesses, or anything, yep.

Speaking of mental illnesses, your posting on my posting of the word "bitchfork" just once again recalls your odd feminist-obsession-issues and your HI-LARIOUS satire thread re: why women rockers have it so EZier! than men and should just should up as they stroke their guitars and sing about their advantages. Oh, it wasn't a satire? LOLOL OMG.

You try. I'll give you that... you try.

But let us not forget that you said "bitchfork." I win.

Wha? do you write for da fork or somethin' ? To tell you the honest, true, but unexceptional story behind my usage of said fake-word, I somehow made a pretty big typ-o (but I'm good at them) when I first typed "Pitchfork," typing it "Pitchwork." F key is far away from w, but I hit it. So then I got to thinking, "if I had typed pitchwork that woud've been stupid but maybe funny, so why don't I just just one of these letters ON PURPOSE?" It was like this major lightbulb moment (It really was, since I've been awake for 29 hours at this time muaha).

So I typed Bitchfork and was attempted to get jabbed by your cockfarming ass, nonetheless. *Sigh* You're not really a condescending bastard, you're just playing one on here. I'll give you that. No, actually I won't, you're a tool, a fork, a bitchfork!!! GO BACK TO THE KITCHEN AND JOIN YOUR REPRESSED WOMEN, BITCH. I'm famished.

Isn't "meagerly" the American spelling? Why you gotta cockfarm?

naked as sin (naked as sin), Monday, 16 December 2002 02:52 (twenty-two years ago)

That was from www.m-w.com so don't ask me.

Oh and David, it IS actually funny because I don't really find you a sexist at all, I even somewhat agreed _in an extremely abstract theoretical way_ - not the way you worded it - with your first post on that feminism thread, when I first threadit. I'm just sleep deprived, and every half hour when I start to doze off I come back here and use the grebt discussions on here, etc. to keep me awake, but I didn't mean to be "oversensitive" if you were just cockfarming w/ my pitchfork spelling. On the other hand, if you were just trying to parody my recent high-strung posts, I cure you to have a fully sleepless academic work-hell week as wekk, in which you do not have a running computer in your house. [If you've already exited academic likfe then poof! the curse will force you to return]. Anyway I think I'm getting paranoid now, since I'm beginning to wonder if things I posted on ILE were deleted or something, as I can't find some of them, and it was nothing that extreme. Who is moderating right now anyway, does anyone know?

V, Monday, 16 December 2002 03:02 (twenty-two years ago)

dude, get some sleep
