Maybe Marah will talk and Nick Hornby will sing? That would be marginally better, surely?

You don't have to go I hope.

OK, Fine, But On The EDITORIAL Page?

ILM needs to designate a pivot man for this circle jerk. And, before you ask, I plan to be busy.

oh, i dont have to go at all. i have better things to do than spend 20$ on a local band and a sad sacok of shit writer.

― maria tessa sciarrino (theoreticalgirl), Thursday, 2 December 2004 20:40 (twenty-one years ago)

sacok = er, SACK

― maria tessa sciarrino (theoreticalgirl), Thursday, 2 December 2004 20:42 (twenty-one years ago)

Somehow 'sacok' works too.

I like how Nick Hornby is the "critic" it's okay to hate on ILM. Him and DeRo I guess.

― Shakey Mo Collier, Thursday, 2 December 2004 20:43 (twenty-one years ago)

Since when did ILM ever need permission to hate on a critic?

― mark p (Mark P), Thursday, 2 December 2004 20:45 (twenty-one years ago)

oh c'mon, Christgau and Chuck Eddy are total sacred cows around here (among others).

― Shakey Mo Collier, Thursday, 2 December 2004 20:46 (twenty-one years ago)

see, thats it, nick hornby is a "critic". and marah is a lousy local band that i cant even warrant seeing for free.

― maria tessa sciarrino (theoreticalgirl), Thursday, 2 December 2004 20:47 (twenty-one years ago)

Hornby and Dero are hardly the exception to the rule, Shakey.

(xpost)
i would like to see warrant playing for free and dousing nick hornby with water.

Hornby does seem to inspire a distinct revulsion, no? I can't recall seeing anyone defend him here (maybe Geir might...?)

― Shakey Mo Collier, Thursday, 2 December 2004 20:50 (twenty-one years ago)

i'll defend his first three books because they're all great. i won't defend his last one or any of the criticism he's written for newspapers or magazines because they're not.

― fact checking cuz (fcc), Thursday, 2 December 2004 20:52 (twenty-one years ago)

i like it when hornby writes fiction. i dont like it when he tries to tell me marah is an awesome band.

― maria tessa sciarrino (theoreticalgirl), Thursday, 2 December 2004 20:53 (twenty-one years ago)

The difference being?

― mark p (Mark P), Thursday, 2 December 2004 20:56 (twenty-one years ago)

zing! i guess than really, i dont like his books.
