The Morrissey Solo Forum: You Don't Have To Be Intellectually Challenged, But It Helps - David Bret's blog
Posted on Saturday May 28 18:38:00 BST 2011

Now let me get one thing straight. Not ALL Morrissey fans are fruit-loops. In my time I have met some very nice ones. Americans, Chinese, French, Australian, doctors, dentists, porn stars. I have even slept with a couple--and they certainly were not vegetarian!

However, the Morrissey Solo Forum has a breed of its own. Like all forums, it is made up of educationally challenged, faceless morons who, unable to cope with the real world and incapable of thinking for themselves, come up with nifty little names such as Not Me Not I, Viva Hate, Dave Jay, and Skylarker--the latter one feckless little bird who should try sky-diving, preferably without a parachute.

Bret made a reference--years ago--to a line from a song, "There are some bad people on the rise," the latter word of which had to be changed to "right" to deter some sort of controversy. For some reason, Skylarker has got his Tampax in a knot and taken great exception to this. First of all, I am deeply shocked that he has read my book (as did 120,000 others, making it sell better than the tome by the Moz-hated Johnny Rogan)--and what shocks me is that Skylarker CAN read.

To this sexless, retarded creature, I am the anti-Christ, the "f***tard", whatever that is supposed to mean. Like I say, the majority of Moz fans are A1 folk. Couldn't wish for a better bunch of people--most of them bright, intellectual, and unreliant of every single word which emits from their great man's mouth.

The forum fans don't eat meat, don't enjoy life much, dream of their idol constantly and masturbate a lot, even though they don't really like sex, and they try to emulate his witticisms.

Where they fail, on every count, is in their quest for normality. So, Mr Skylarker, when you are lambasting someone better than you as a "f***tard". just remember--it takes one to know one. And the next time you wrap your fingers around your digit and jerk away to "You're The One For Me, Fatty", just remember tomorrow will be just another day when you will be just another nobody.

And think about Morrissey, studying you from afar and sniggering--like myself--all the way to the bank.

Ummm...you sure you're on the right forums?

She's talking about David.Jay and Not Me Not I.

Also, you need to quit replying so much about this...it comes across as desperate and taking this as seriously as Bret does. I said my piece and stopped...you should do the same.
 
Personally, I take GREAT offence at you saying my name is "Made up".
....Have you even SEEN my birth certifcate ??
Check your FACTS before you print them, Most decent writers do, you know.....
 
This man has serious issues with masturbation. :crazy:

His rant looks like a classic case of psychological projection.

Oh well.

Re: Article: David Bret blog - "The Morrissey Solo Forum: You Don't Have To Be Intell

It doesn't help that you picked on two people who are well known on the forums for being very decent types. Onto the Fail Bus with you, Sir.

Which are these supposed to be?

Not Me Not I is Daily Alice, the very American who has had the urge to show herself off as a superior fan since 2009. Do you really call this decent?
 
Wow...hung by his own petard!

Not read Brett's book, but to slag off a Moz forum for being obsessive about Moz on said Forum's 'facebook page, after writing a book about Moz is a tad strange?
Oh,I see...he did it for 'the money and laughed all the way to the bank!'

'Just like Moz..!?'

It's always funny when these journalists try to put themselves on the same level as their idols and dissociate themselves from the 'average fan'
 
Hello? Why are you posting your retorts and by-return character assasinations here?

Can't you go to his blog and tell him what you think of him, or do you feel better and bigger and cleverer giving him a kicking here?

I don't know the guy, but what he wrote was pretty rude and insulting to the people he mentioned. That said, a few of you do come out with some right nonsense and, as someone else mentioned, you seem to think you own morrissey.

Your not covering yourself in glory with some of the things you are saying in reply. Can't you just bite your lip?

Go put the kettle on and crack open the tea biscuits.

Taking playground fighting to the extreme, what a childish reaction

In essence though, Bret is correct. I visit this site regularly for the News, but I despise the much of the retarded nonsense posted on the Front Page. It's a bit rich to accuse Mr Bret of "playground fighting" and "childish reactions" when that is precisely what appears, in a far more vitriolic form, on these pages daily.

Everyone has the right to reply. Not much point in allowing comments otherwise.

I always have the kettle on and you're all welcome. Even Mr Bret, although he's not allowed a HobNob today because he's been a bad lad.

Hang on a second, David Bret strung a couple of hundred words togehter without throwing in random French words and phrases unneccesarily! Stop the presses! :eek:

It's not considered de rigueur to so these days!
 
I have just spent about ten minutes, that I will NEVER get back, reading Bret's blog.
As a therapist, I have to say, I see more than factual inaccuracies and bad journalism here.
There is so much wrong, it would be difficult to outline without getting out a big diagnostic manual and doing some
serious compounding of diagnoses to come up with something fitting the madness plastered all through his site.
The entire site is evidence of him trolling around various forums on-line, no doubt looking for his own name in mention,
then spewing all that venom in response.
It is encouraging, though, to anyone considering publishing a book, if this man is in print, and has an income,
there's hope for ANYONE!
Wow, I'm still reeling from the endless entries of adolescent ramblings.
Morrissey rates this guy?
REALLY?!?!?

So why would we give the guy more 'hits' on his blog?
When that's all he cares about...more numbers...more money...it's all 'success' to the Lazy Journo...anyhow, it's obvious the guy scours these boards constantly.

What a jerk!
 
Woke up today and realised in shock that Bret is probably a Man United fan who was so gutted beforehand that Barca would beat us in the final. Horrid thought I know but it is my little explanation.

Yeah I suppose you're right. I just enjoy it though.

Both parties appear ridiculous in this case. It's simply not news worthy, it's pathetic.
 
I haven't posted here in around 5 years, but had to come back to say thankyou to David Bret, i don't care if you made some mistakes in a book you have given me a huge laugh and are spot on about these fans you speak of and the forums.

Keep it up
