My Sisters History!

THE place for your Sisters-related comments, questions and snippets of Sisters information. For those who do not know, The Sisters of Mercy are a rock'n'roll band. And a pop band. And an industrial groove machine. Or so they say. They make records. Lots of records, apparently. But not in your galaxy. They play concerts. Lots of concerts, actually. But you still cannot see them. So what's it all about, Alfie? This is one of the few tightly-moderated forums on Heartland, so please keep on-topic. All off-topic posts will either be moved or deleted. Chairman Bux is the editor and the editor's decision is final. Danke.

It's all the matter of the lack of face after the full stop.
"You are sick. :roll:" means something entirelly different than, say, "You are sick. :lol: :notworthy:"
And I might be tempted to agree with the latter. :wink: :kiss:

DD's entitled to an opinion as this is a forum after all. Debate, exchange of ideas/opinions etc etc.

If Tidal was on drugs then I'd (laughingly) rave about his thread. As he's not, I'll go with he may be slightly obsessed.

Time for Buxy to come back and get some serious moderation into this sub-forum as it's slowly descending into another General Chat. :roll:

Care to elaborate on that last statement, Johnny?

Ofcourse Johnny but it is hard to tell what somebody means by making such a remark. An emoticon or " " could have made a big difference. I do not like erse crawling but I found this one rather personal insulting which can never be the idea behind HL I guess.

So, if you are unsure of the meaning: why not wait until it becomes a little clearer before responding? And then respond accordingly? Or if it doesn't become clearer, just forget about it as it obviously didn't mean much in the whole scheme of things anyway. :wink:

He might just have thought, WOW he wrote 2000 words about his Sisters past, he's (crazy, or the way he puts it here): sick.

Problem is we're not sure so it could be an insult anyway :cry:


Back on my obsession: the length of my post has nothing to do with the way I like the Sisters. I just like to say things, and when I say things, I say them GOOD. That means in this case, that I explain every detail of what I am saying. Well, not so much, had I remembered more this post would have been over 5000 words especially when I would have started on the psychic effects the Sisters music has had on me during my time here...

I am the kind to write this much. But this isn't that much really, as I like writing and once wrote a story over 147 pages long. It's my masterpiece, and I'm still working on it and making it longer. But you guys wouldn't want to read it as it deals with a fantasy world already in existance before I wrote a story about it...

The moment I seconded Sinny's post it was clear to me but you do have a good point. :wink:
Tidal can defend himself anyway.

@ Tidal....you truly are sick! :lol: :wink:

Yes Tidal, and you recounted your feelings and response in 152 words (I counted them). :lol:

No one is knocking your enthusiasm. Or obsession. But we have limited attention spans when reading on here, so maybe a few less words would still have the desired effect? I also appreciate that you're a non Native English speaker so maybe its harder to condense all your thoughts in one go as opposed to a native speaker. :wink:

Welcome to the club, so am I (usually)... :oops: :lol:

And who wants to read it, shall do so, and who doesn't shall ignore it. I don't think much of cutting other people's posts back or tell them to condense, cause I prefer real trees to Bonsais.

For the record, I'd say every single motherf****n one of us on here is sick. And twisted. And to greater or lesser degrees, obsessed with a largely defunct band that has for some time simply been taking the p*ss to extreme levels. Very well, I might add.
