God, if that happened to me, I would be a jabbering mess, incapable of coherent speech. This man is royalty to me - a hero in every sense of the word. All those times laid in awe on the bedroom floor. I think meeting him in the flesh would almost be painful.Oh come on then, if you walked past him in the street or stopped to chat, wouldn't you feel a tiny bit of.... excitement?
Let them, they don't have much to cling to these days.
Of course not, and no one is saying that they should.M, Dave, and Bob …
they’re all doing the same think more or less, none of them are really reinventing their own wheel, ffs.
The word ageism has lost all meaning. Didn’t you know? You’re usually bang up to date with these things.Casual ageism is not cool. Moz looks great. The man's a legend.
Here's hoping there is an imminent deal announcement with Stray Ferret Records.
Well, age is a protected characteristic according to the 2010 Equality Act, so what is the current word for the passing of time?The word ageism has lost all meaning. Didn’t you know? You’re usually bang up to date with these things.
He was there around the same time last year, but I think your idea is better than the only one I could come up with - that it's the anniversary of Charlotte Bronte's death at the end of March. And that's more West Yorkshire.Alan Bennett is 90 in a few weeks. Did he go to Yorkshire to wish him happy birthday?
True, it must be sad to have such a horribly empty life that these are the things you obsess about. The reluctance to see things how they really are instead of romanticizing Morrissey's circumstances beyond recognition or reason is desperate, they are desperately clinging to their fantasy and excoriating anyone who bursts the bubble. I think maybe the saddest of all is the notion that he is some 66 year old outsider who is going to kick ass at some undetermined time in the future There's a lot of infantile fixation and mental illness around here.Let them, they don't have much to cling to these days. A street sign, some recognize, a little weight loss and a cardigan that's not too tight and some people really do think, the heydays 91/92 are coming back. The same people celebrate the completely out of place Beethoven reissue. Listen to "Notre Dame" and feel the disease!
Well, I used to be irrationally in love with Evan Dando and I did actually see him on the street and didn't stop to speak. I have approached other lead singers and musicians I really like and have become friends with some of them. They are just people, like us. I am not into hero worship.Oh come on then, if you walked past him in the street or stopped to chat, wouldn't you feel a tiny bit of.... excitement? Senior citizen and all!
It's a word of the Woke.The word ageism has lost all meaning. Didn’t you know? You’re usually bang up to date with these things.
Don't worry. He will be pinnned on every boomer's bedroom wall very soon. Worldwide. The 24 comeback special (event) is just around the corner.True, it must be sad to have such a horribly empty life that these are the things you obsess about.

Wanting babies with 71 year old Sting much less soAll you weirdos lusting after a senior citizen is strange
Well considering the age of many people on here it’s better that they are attracted to a senior citizen rather than a youngster- that would just be creepyWell, I used to be irrationally in love with Evan Dando and I did actually see him on the street and didn't stop to speak.

I am seeing a lot of sexual attraction comments, which is what I am really commenting on. I made one about Sting, but I meant 80s Sting, not senior citizen Sting looking like a grandpa, even the men here are sexually attracted to him.
In case you are unable to read, I clarified the Sting comment in another comment you quoted.Wanting babies with 71 year old Sting much less so

He is already by posters here, like FiDo and MJ, creepy headboard and allDon't worry. He will be pinnned on every boomer's bedroom wall very soon. Worldwide. The 24 comeback special (event) is just around the corner.
What? So its only not weird and not creepy if people on here like people between the ages of what? 30-50 years of age? I'm daft to even engage in this daft discussion. I'm out.In case you are unable to read, I clarified the Sting comment in another comment you quoted.
In case you are daft, there are many ages inbetween 'senior citizen' and 'youngster' and it's really creepy that your mind would go there.
Yes, you are correct that I have often suggested in my posts that words ending in - ist and -ism and -phobic are vague and over-used. Especially when the word 'systemic' is added before them. But I have never, and would never, suggest that there is no such thing as prejudice. Prejudice is very real and should be fought against. I also merely suggested that some of the comments weren't 'cool'. I am no fan of 'hate speech' laws. When it comes to speech, I think it is much better if people are simply invited to reflect and use language wisely. Which is what I was advocating on this thread.The word ageism has lost all meaning. Didn’t you know? You’re usually bang up to date with these things.
