I don't know if it's venturing too far into forbidden territory, but samwisefan is a contender on that basis that he is seemingly the world's biggest fan of that label we cannot mention that reissues 80s albums. He's also got a very skewed perspective on the relative size of the companies involved.
Can't post the rest of the thread for obvious reasons, but there's plenty more where that came from including Almanac Zinger calling Cherry Red the 'mafia'.

It's one thing to be able to play a line from a famous musician. It's another thing to COME UP WITH THE FUCKING THING TO BEGIN WITH!!! You dopey twat! Was thinking about this copycat mentality among players yesterday. Is there any other arts where it is seen as acceptable to do that? Imagine copying an Ernest Hemingway then bragging about it. It must come from the classical tradition. Nothing wrong with it, everyone has their influences, but it's surely a lower order skill than creating your own stuff (unless that stuff sounds like Rob Freeman!).

There's a lot of shit that we'd never get on CD, or for unreleased stuff just never get at all, if not for Cherry Red and Esoteric. Anyone who bitches about a CD-R can go to hell. Yes, hell!

Samwisefan showed up in my discogs “recent changes to items in your collection” messages a few months back. He’s just obnoxious in general.
One label has decades of history of getting obscure music out to the masses, the other seems to think the artists whose albums you borrow from large companies should hate you.

I'll delete this if you all feel I'm crossing a line, but I would not be surprised if Sam Wiseman, and a few of the more belligerent fans of a certain label were socks.

There probably is a handful of greying fans of early MTV major label schlock that found each other on Internet message boards and are happy they found others to keep the flame alive. 30 years ago they would’ve been partaking in the “men only” seminars in the woods where they would grunt and get covered in mud or whatever.

Bananarama is '80s slang for sausage party.

The other two can snort my farts.

He probably only wanted the claw machine and chocolate.
