Married

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 2011, not 1811. Intelligent people don't get married if they don't have to.
As an intelligent person who got married in 2009, I would just like to say fûck you.

I think what shivarising was getting at was "Intelligent people these days know that it's not a necessity for everyone to get married" ... :lol:

although Sonya never said that it was... :)

Hmmm, Not wanting to sound harsh, but, would you please start taking your medication again, really it's for your own good.

And as another intelligent person who got married in 2003, I agree with the above statement by markfiend.

For some intelligent people it is absolutely necessary to get married, because of what they've seen before.

Although the meaning and substance of marriage - and the word itself - has been, yeah warped, revalued and instrumentalised for centuries.

Nice to know I can still make friends wherever I go!

I just meant that part of the lure of being a musician is the non-conformity bit. You p*ss on the suits, you p*ss on the slag workers who toil away endlessly on someone else's treadmill, you p*ss on conventions, you wear sunglasses inside and funny outfits galore, you take lots of dr*gs, you have uh, fun, with lots of ladies who you will never see again... unless they are REALLY hot.

Von didn't conform to the record industry's wishes, why would he conform to the corporations who love marriage because it most often produces new consumers to buy more useless stuff?

I'm just saying... who wrote the line "life is short and love is always over in the morning"?

... yeah or conform to the state who loves to have new subjects and thus a means again to suppress the subjects already under it's thumb.

You must be somewhat blinded to think this happened to celebrities only or to guys ... :lol: ... doesn't matter, I love you nonetheless ... :wink: ...

I know too well that being the object of someone's yearning is to be treated as just that: an object.

People who would never frighten someone with aggression lose all self-censorship because they think their 'love' is a benenvolent force.

It isn't.

there's every chance that us mere mortals will end up with an obsessive nutter on our case at some point of our lives, but surely celebs are far more likely targets? either way, it's not fun :urff:

having said that, i have a feeling that Sonya had her tongue planted firmly in her cheek when she posted :)

You seem to be a very serious and correct person..

Do you really think he reads this or gives a s**t? I thought not, but if he does I apologize then.

regarding the latter ... yeah, I took that for granted as well ...

regarding the nutters ... it doesn't take nutters, it's just everyday standard ...

Some people get a joke, some people don't. Just learn to live with it.

In several interviews and in issues of UTR, Mr. Eldritch has openly discussed the negative impact fan stalking has had upon his life.

Apparently some people on here find that amusing.

The fact that I don't share this sentiment isn't a big concern for me.

Has the sociology experiment been completed?

The most successful tyranny is not the one that uses force to assure uniformity but the one that removes the awareness of other possibilities, that makes it seem inconceivable that other ways are viable, that removes the sense that there is an outside.
