— After releasing his memoir, which features passages about his relationships with men, Morrissey has issued a statement clarifying his sexuality.

>"Unfortunately, I am not homosexual. In technical fact, I am humasexual. I am attracted to humans. But, of course ... not many."

I really don't understand why everyone seems to care about the sexualities of celebrities who they, personally, have never fucked, aren't currently fucking, and won't ever fuck.

Morrissey is never going to fuck you and you're never going to fuck Morrissey, so what difference does it make whether he's gay, straight, asexual, pansexual, whatever?

Please we both know what you were actually going to do.
The /mu/ basis of argument is to find out what the person you're arguing with likes and then insult them for liking said music.
The entirety of /mu/ is based on repetitive arguments about musical taste instead of cooperative discussion.

Since school started I haven't really been able to do much active listening, but when I do I listen more to post-rock or avant-garde. My last.fm reflect pretty well what i've been listening to I guess, but I also listen to avant-garde artists such as Henning Christiansen, Steve Reich, and Steve Roden

Oh wow. You're going to come in here and try to bash people for not having an obscure taste, yet every single artist on the chart you posted is in my library, and mine isn't even that big.

Anyone who demands room temperature mangos prior to doing an interview/appearing on tv is not cool in my book.

To be fair, "room temperature mangos" isn't that bad a request.

Don't forget to take into account that Morrissey has been trolling the media for decades. He doesn't take interviews and bullshit like that seriously.

The whole idea behind being a "Penguin Classic" is to mess with the money-hungry media, who'll bend to the most outrageous requests just to make some $.

I think you are giving him far too much credit than he deserves.

The penguin classics thing is just another egotistical delusions of grandeur fuelled demand, which surprisingly got accepted.

The guy at Penguin was prob a huge smiths/morrissey Stan.
