Made Up Manics Facts

[cheesetime]

Richey is not actually missing, he's hiding in the airing cupboard after a drunken game of hide n seek went horribly awry when James forgot he was supposed to be looking for him. Richey sometimes bangs on the door to drop a hint but James assumes it's just the boiler playing up again.

Sean hides in his bass drum until Christmas is over

I think besides the current James thread this is my favourite. I was wetting myself laughing reading through these. Now another fact.

Nicky is convinced that fridge magnets are racist.

[Mr Richey]

James has never knowingly touched another man.

By what seems to be an incredible coincidence, James, Sean, Nicky and Richey all discovered they were highly allergic to those blue nobbly liquorice allsorts, within the space of 2 and half months, (but in entirely separate incidents that none of the others had any knowledge of at the time).

It then took them a further 3 months to relay their stories to each other after watching an ad on TV.

As you can imagine, it freaked them all out a bit, and they vowed never to speak of it to anyone ever again, but Nicky sometimes eats one of the pink nobbly ones, or the little multi-coloured stacked fondant ones in a minor gesture of confectionary defiance.

James also gives them a box which is why every under 10 in Wales can be found suffering from concussion on the 26th December.

Nicky always regrets giving him boxing gloves for Christmas every year.

James has the ability to set fire to socks with his mind. He just chooses not to use it after a childhood incident which left his grandmother with scorched toenails.

James loves Christmas tinsel. He keeps it in a special suitcase. And when he's in a certain kinda mood, he likes to get the tinsel out.

Sean always celebrates New Years Eve a day late on the 1st January for reasons relating to Nicky and a cheese grater.

James once bit out a man's throat when he was offered a fruit pastille by him. He mistook the offering of said sugary treat for being called a 'puff'.

Richey didn't go missing, he was kidnapped by Kenickie, who kept him in their loft. Unfortunately they forgot he was there when they split up, so he's still up there and has formed a new version of the Manics, featuring a spider on drums, a woodlouse on vocals and a daddylonglegs on bass. He survives by eating his own dandruff and toe nail clippings. He's having the time of his life.

[Symmanine]

Dancing Queen by ABBA is a result of the Swedes' ability to travel in time. The guys from ABBA heard Motorcycle Emptiness on a trip to future and then traveled back and stole the riff.
