Tuesday October 2nd 2018 - Day 2574 - Low high art
Morrissey's tweet rampage of yesterday was just like the good old days, and my blog entry to report it all took me virtually all day to write....and yet five hours after I had published my account, only 30 people had bothered to read it, and only one person (mancladmozfan) had bothered to comment. Even now, as I write this new blog entry nearly twenty four hours later, only 50 people have read yesterday's and only 4 have left a comment - WHAT IS WRONG WITH PEOPLE? Morrissey fans have now had SEVEN YEARS to work out that this is the REAL Morrissey humorously interacting with fans on Twitter in various guises, and yet STILL they haven't had the intelligence to do so - TWATS!
I had a late night Twitter DM session with Morrissey (as Dawn Mist) last night. The subject of a lack of interest in his tweets and my blog was raised:
MOZ: One fucking comment. Why do I bother?
ME: Why do I? - You're a seminal artist and I've been ill all day!
MOZ: Ah! But you see the historical importance of all this.... whatever this is. Even I have forgotten now. Was there a point to all this? I suppose it was my little experiment of sorts.
ME: I still have no doubt that historians will love this. The lack of responses actually makes it better.
MOZ: You're correct. I wouldn't want this any other way. Broken would have had a helping hand with that today.
ME: He scares people.
MOZ: He scares me, which is quite strange. The more they come back at me the more I feel inclined to reply. I cannot stop myself.
ME: Those new to all this must be staring at the Bieber pics in their timeline thinking, what the fuck...
MOZ: Yes! Tell me, what did you think at first?
I didn't get the chance to reply to this last question as at that moment I received a phone call from my youngest son saying, "no need to worry, but eldest son is in hospital with a broken jaw!" Needless to say, I did worry, and Morrissey had to be abandoned. Thankfully the jaw is only fractured and will mend. Bloody kids!
The answer to Morrissey's question about Broken is that I managed to avoid getting snared by him in the early days, and was able to work out that he was just a character, and nothing he said should be taken seriously. Many others didn't manage to work that out.
Also in my DM conversation with Morrissey yesterday, he brought up the subject of potential songs on the setlist for the new tour. He invited me to start guessing, so I took a wild punt at Lifeguard on Duty. He generously replied, "Did you not read my statement or are you deliberately being a fuckwit?" He was of course referring to the Morrissey Central statement of yesterday, which contained lyrics from Shoplifters. I explained to Morrissey that I wasn't feeling very well, and again he was generous in his reply, "Get well soon you dire cunt". Moments after he had given me this kind get well message, Broken posted the exact same message on the public Twitter forum. They are both too kind!
Dawn also posted a few more tweets yesterday evening, including linking to an article on the Slightdawnmist blog from August 2017, entitled From Nowhere and New Adventure - which I first wrote about, and republished here: Day 2257. I informed OM that I had enjoyed re-reading the article, and added, "You're quite good with words, you should write". He replied, "Perhaps the IOW County Press will allow me to gain some work experience?" I responded, "Again?" (Ed - it is a little known fact that OM has already had his work published in the IOW CP). M replied, "Will you put a word in? Scatty lighthouse keeper, good at predicting, lyrical genius, fair-weather vegan. �100,000 per week - paid direct to my offshore account in Switzerland." I replied that his last piece was considered a little too high-brow, to which he replied, "I insist False Victimhood is to be published next." I will see if I can put in a word.... although I can't see him getting 10 quid, let alone a hundred grand - I sometimes think Morrissey lives in his own little world!
Morrissey's mentioning of being a "fairweather" vegan led to Matt Starling (@matt_starling) asking, "Fairweather?", to which M replied, "Everyone deserves a day off." - I wonder what Mozzer's weakness is? Ice cream? Cheese? Chocolate?
Dawn's only appearance in The Arms today was to post this mid afternoon tweet:
"The curtains have been twitching, the juices have been flowing. I sense a new parody. I cannot confirm or deny a collaboration. I see three names they come to be from in the wardrobe, OM, Broken and a special guest writer. I am hushed to secrecy. Beep, beep, beep."
We now await the new parody with bated breath. I certainly haven't been asked to contribute, so could Ricky Gervais be the guest writer?
Broken has also been back in The Arms today, looking for fights even where there are no fights to be found. Boozey Kerry decided to join in the fun when Broken insisted that his intellect was on a higher plane, by asking, "How does one explain List of the Lost then?" Broken replied, "Low high art." - he has an answer for everything!
