Pfff.... lighten up man. You're making a big fuzz about this on a list where no one wants to know. our.webstuff@verizon.net wrote:
Apparently you missed that this was a joke. A bit of dark humor.
Lighten up, guy.
there's nothing wrong with MY sense of humor, as anyone who read the next post of mine could see:
when I got back to the states one of the first things I did was "put the needle on the record" - and was I blown away! (no cobain statements here please)
TWO puns there! so you see, my sense of humor is fully functional at this time, as it was when I first read the phrases "kurt cobain territory" and "...attention seeker..." - I guess I just didn't think those phrases were particularly witty or humorous
if there's ANYONE here who really needs to "lighten up" it's the person who decided to cancel a "festival" and quit the list because someone disagreed with him!
and that excuse, about "can't be bothered arguing with people over the internet"? HEY MILNE, NO ONE WAS ARGUING WITH YOU!
all I asked was what was meant "kurt cobain territory" in the first place, in relation to drummond and "go to sleep" (after all, you could've meant heroin, murder/suicide, evil groupie, etc.)
requesting clarification is not the same as "arguing" (and in any event you declined to elaborate upon the relation anyway - I fail to see how the "attention seeker" comment connects to the song in question)
BESIDES the fact that you SPECIFICALLY ASKED "what do people think?"
(remember?)
also, if you REALLY can't "be bothered arguing with people over the internet" then WHY did you send ME an EMail OFF THE LIST about it??!
face it, folks: if MILNE is using THIS as a reason to quit the list and cancel the "festival", it was PROBABLY NEVER GOING TO HAPPEN IN THE FIRST PLACE
we'll see in "three weeks - maybe four" - I don't think he'll really quit the list for good - and quitting over something like THIS says a whole lot more about him than me, I think
hey MILNE, you should stay on the list AND put on the festival, just to spite me!
WIN-WIN!
p.s.
If you want to venerate dead men, at least make sure they are attached to established churches. Jesus has one, I hear.
who said I wanted to "venerate" ANYONE?
Did I ever recommend the worship of kurt cobain?
far from it, all I ever asked was for you to explain what you meant in the first place, which you still haven't done and will probably never do
and, of course, your (again) feeble attempt at humor shows the blatant hypocrisy of your earlier claim of "not wanting to argue over the internet"
*I* didn't bring up jesus OR kurt cobain! YOU did!
all I asked was for you to explain what "kurt cobain territory" means in relation to "go to sleep"!!!
"waiting"...
