I know some of you are fans of Morrissey. The Smiths made some really great music. But, Morrissey is a real dick.
For decades now, the guy has cancelled concerts with amazing regularity, quite often when he is in the venue with thousands of his fans awaiting the show. Often for extremely lame reasons. This article lays it out. I'm not even much of a fan, but after reading the article, I felt the need for this post.
Since 1991, he has cancelled or postponed a mind-boggling 251 shows, per this website, which lists every single one of them.
I'm not implying that punching Louise Linton would be ok (Steve Mnuchin though? Absolutely), but wow....why the hell is she there? And in opera-length black leather gloves? Disgusting...
The news recently broke that Wyatt Koch — son of Bill Koch, of the conservative dark lord billionaire Kochs — is suing his ex-fiancée to get the custom engagement ring he gifted her back. Koch reportedly bought her the ring for $180,000 and now wants it returned, along with $15,000 in damages. But that is neither here nor there because what’s emerged from this narrative is a far more fascinating bit of information: young Koch’s true passion is designing shirts, and they are terrible beyond your wildest imagination.
Koch’s brand, Wyatt Ingraham, sports the tagline “Be Bold™” — and he delivers. The shirts, with bright colors and busy patterns, are definitely what we’d call “bold.” They’re also what we’d call “seizure-inducing” and “oh God, why?” Take, for instance, the “Wall Street” design which retails for $79 on sale, features literal moneybags, and looks like something a cigar-chomping fat cat would wear on Casual Fridays.

If I saw someone wearing that shirt in a bar, I would make sure I "accidentally" spilled a full glass of red wine down the front of it.
And how supremely douchey do you have to be to have a $180K engagement ring made, and then ask for it back (plus damages!) when she wises up and realizes no amount of money is enough to have to put up with his ugly-shirt-wearing-doughy ass?
I'll give him a pass if all he wants to do is design ugly shirts instead of destroying public education or cutting welfare or banging teenage girls/boys.

As evidence for why Simon & Schuster did not want to move forward with publication of self-proclaimed far-right “troll” Milo Yiannopoulos’ autobiography “Dangerous,” the publisher has offered up the manuscript itself—annotated with a litany of scathing notes from one of its top editors.
The draft was included in court documents the publisher recently filed in New York State Supreme Court to defend its February decision to cancel a publication deal with Yiannopoulos worth $225,000. Yiannopoulos sued for $10 million in July over a breach of contract.
Manuscript notes from editor Mitchell Ivers show the impossible task Simon & Schuster faced: prodding an individual who built a career at Breitbart News off of demeaning Islam and using the word “lesbian” as a slur to produce a book suitable for mainstream publication.
Over and over, Yiannopoulos’ characteristic self-aggrandizement, penchant for ethnic smears, sloppy logic, and lack of humor are criticized by Ivers.
“Delete irrelevant and superfluous ethnic joke,” Ivers writes of a line about “informing cab drivers that curry is not a deodorant.”
“Don’t start chapter with accusation that feminists=fat. It destroys any seriousness of purpose,” he notes on a section titled “Why Feminists Hate Me.”
That's the problem with everything. If you can make a buck off of it, it's allowed. See CNN/MSNBC with Trump during the election. Jeff Zucker and Joe Scarborough had no qualms about having that scumbag on the air day after day and night after night, then once he gets elected suddenly it's a bad thing. Everyone's complicit and it would take backbone to do the right thing.
