Because the only people who dislike them beyond going 'oh piss off, you daft buggers' are goths. Quid pro quo.

EVOLghost 08.02.2011 12:47 PM

piss off.

floatingslowly 08.02.2011 12:47 PM

point taken.

what if I don't care about the filming laps but hate their fanbase passionately??

what does that make me???

please say "goth".

EVOLghost 08.02.2011 12:52 PM

hey sure1! why not. flostinggothiclyman.

I don't speak on behalf of the fanbase...nor do I really associate with them cause I too can find them annoying.

That makes you someone who has no idea how irritating Manics fans are. Floyman lishh fans are minnows of irritation by comparison.

floatingslowly 08.02.2011 12:58 PM

ok. on your good recommendation, I hate them too.

do they cry when you punch them in the cunt, like sissy-ass flaming lips fans do???

boypussies.

Worse - they make fanzines about it.

What is your most memorable/favourite moment as a Manics fan?
I was just thinking about this the other day...

For me it was sitting in a waffle place off Las Ramblas in Barcelona in Spring 2004 on a Tuesday afternoon at about 2pm. I'd completely lost interest in the Manics around then. The waffle place was dead but at least they had the radio on. I went to the bog and coming back I could hear these jangling chords and it sounding really familiar but I couldn't put my finger on it. And then the chorus kicked in "duh-nin dun duh-nin / Forever-ever delayed".

It was just a great random Manics moment!

No I mean they literally saved my life.

I was at a Flaming Lips show back in the late '90s and my apartment burned down from a gas fire while I was away.

floatingslowly 08.02.2011 02:27 PM

the flaming lips wouldn't save your life if YOU were on fire; blind luck did, you silly twit.

floatingslowly 08.02.2011 02:28 PM

I'm feeling very goth right now.

Nah man I was just talking out of my ass. That was a complete lie.

I do like the Flaming Lips, though. A lot.

p.s. there are a great many goths who claim to hate the Lips, but they'd still get down to "Jesus Shootin' Heroin", or any number of other uber-depressing songs from their early days.

Actually, I don't see any reason why "goth" and the Lips would be against one another.

Oh well. Fuck it. Great band. I don't get the Manics comparison, though. Totally different breed of fans. Irritating in totally different ways.

my god, I'm good at this game. lulzy

E. Noisefield 08.02.2011 02:37 PM

Actually, the MOST irritating kind of Lips fans are the rich art school kids who live just close enough to a big city to get away with saying that's where they're "from"... and many of these people, from my experience, fancy themselves some kind of "goth".

I'm sorry newguy. you seem alright. I'll cease and desist. let's just blame glice from here on out. wow. what a cunt that guy is. that glice.

floatingslowly 08.02.2011 02:41 PM

I'm from Los Angelass via Tejass via OkC

best leave goths alone while you're still ahead.

knox 08.02.2011 02:42 PM

The lips don't like the lips.
I wish we could continue talking about manics fans.
