I got stopped last year by a policewoman on my way home from college at about 7 in the night and was searched, I had no idea why, I don't look much like a hooligan! I had to take my jacket off for my routine frisking, and was interrogated about who Morrissey was, for what was literally about 20 minutes, only god knows why???? I'm sure this is what's known as above and beyond the call of duty. Otherwise I do get quite a lot of comments when I wear one of my Morrissey t-shirts, some not so nice as others, but I wear them with pride all the same.

bwhahahah i had the same problem when i was crossing the border (Canada/US) going to Buffalo to catch my plane for LA to go see Morrissey (I figured I should wear my band shirt while traveling to the gig, but not AT the gig because that...well...that's just lame! the guy at the border (i believe he was a customs officer) questioned me WHY i was going so far to see this bloke Morrissey...he didn't get it but I got in. I don't know what relevance his style of music had on whether i get in or not...if I said "hip hop" would I have been escorted back into Canadeh? (pfff even I think a person travelling to the other side of the continent to see a hip hop concert should be banished from the society...) but yea...crazy policemen!

A good friend of mine is dating a boy who absolutely loathes Moz and the Smiths. When I would wear my old sweatshirt with a ROTT patch, he'd try to rip it off. When I wear Moz or Smiths shirts, he tries to pour things on them.
And now I've decided to challenge myself and wear a Moz-related shirt every school day for the rest of the school year. He really hates it.

We don't need your sarcasm and faint praise, we have flowers and trees, windows with glass, the airport and the rolling cheshire countryside on our border. And when that twat from the Tory party came a-calling one of our brave boys gave it to him good style.

"Problems with wearing Moz tshirts?"
I wear my few on a regular basis and i almost always wear them when out in public.
main problem i have is that it is so rainy/windy here all the time that tshirts usually get lost under 10 coats or so!
Oh and the local town is chave central so i get some odd looks, but i dont care, i just undo my zipper a little more (the coat the coat nowt else! lol) so that its more prominent.
I'm happy that peeps dont come upto me and talk about it as i can spot a genuine fan in one sentence and anyone else gets a cold shoulder.
I did however once have a guy serving me in M&S and he was going on about how he ,et him ages ago as his aunty used to be Moz's teacher, when i asked him if he was a FAN, he said "oh no too miserable for me, and he didnt even like my aunt!" LOL
I think he was
A) fibbing
B) a sandwich short of a picnic.

Me and a couple of pals were drunk one night and decided to play that daft game where you stick a piece of paper to your head with a stars name on it and have to guess who it is.
I chose Morrissey, then Mikey pipes up and says "thats cheating, Morrissey is a make"
I asked him what he was on about and he said "well its written across your t-shirt"
What a dafty considering I have Morrissey posters all over my house.

Strangers don't say anything anymore, probably because of my age and size. But a work colleague asked if I was 'going a bit gay' when I wore a Smiths T.
This person was wearing a 'scissor sisters' T
and loves 'Anthony and The Johnsons'.Oh, the Irony.

HA HA HA HA. Maybe your work colleague is after a bit of extra-curricular activity?

You never know, but I can't imagine anyone ever suddenly became 'a bit gay'
Oh I dunno. I've considered becoming 'a bit gay."
Usually at times of promiscuity/ desperation as gay men allegedly don't have the hang-ups that straight blokes do!
(AND THAT IS WHAT IS KNOWN AS A STEREOTYPE before everyone gets up in arms. Its political correctness gone mad

Well, I will leave that experiment in your capable hands.

the only remarks i have gotten are from my teachers at my high school.
my spanish teacher was very enthusiastic about it and said "hey, morrissey! you know, i was just playing that smiths song at home yesterday, you know that song, "hang the dj hang the dj..."!" he was very pleased when i made a morrissey poster for one of our projects!
the other teacher was like "what? you listen to morrissey? really? you really listen to morrissey (and he made this confused face), i prefer his old band" then he burst into bigmouth strikes again and knew every word, by this time the whole class was looking at me and i was red as a beat

I know the feeling well. I bought a coupla shirts for the kids while at Pasadena. They have the ROTT art (Moz w/violin) so now everyone thinks we are gaga over a violinist.

First off, it looks like we share a name. Second, I HAVE A SIMILAR EXPERIENCE!
First day of school, Contemporary World Affairs. My teacher says, "go around the room and say your full name and something that you like to do." When it got to me, I said my name and "I enjoy spending all of my time listening to Morrissey." He says, "Morrissey? You mean...the Smiths?!" "YES!" By the end of the class hour, my iPod was hooked to his computer, and he was singing along and dancing to "Stop Me If You Think You've Heard This One Before." We exchanged CDs and tapes, and discussed Moz a lot throughout the semester. He was really excited when I got to go and see him in Chicago, and we also spent a lot of time talking about that. As well as Pink Floyd and Rush, but that's a different story, haha.
