[edit] Overview
“The Morrissey” is the traditional title given to the director, choreographer and public leader of the famous Morrissey Lads Dance Company of Madchester, England. To qualify for ascension to the rank of Morrissey, a potential must adopt or possess the surname Morrissey, and have mastered the many arts of the traditional Morrissey Dance. During Morrissey dancing recitals, the Morrissey, as Leader of the dancers, looks upon the proceedings with an air of vague disinterest, pouts occasionally, growls effeminately and flails his or her arms about to signal costume changes and movement transitions.
As stated in the International Morrissey Dancing Committe (IMDC) guidebook, the “Grand Moaning,” the Morrissey is also required to adhere to a strict behavioral code. The Morrissey must:
- Foreswear all sexual contact for the duration of his or her tenure.
- Loudly proclaim this celibacy to all who will listen, “until people just stop fucking believing it and wish you’d shut up and get laid already.”
- Wear his or her hair in a Pompadour
- Adhere to a strict vegetarian diet. In fact, this requirement is strictly enforced. Violation means immediate dismissal.
Along with the title, a Morrissey inherits a large estate in Madchester, an obvious toupee, and a stipend of four groats per season served. By long standing tradition, the lead dancer in any troupe of Morrissey Dancers in the amateur circuit, or the recognized best freestyler in a city is also a designated 'Morrissey', however there can be only one The Morrissey at any given time.
[edit] History
These literate, whining dancers trace their lineage back to 1601 CE, the year the Troupe was legally recognized by pioneering fag hag and anti-Spaniard activist, Queen Elizabeth I. She became attached to the style of dance as a result of her advanced age, and granted The Morrissey Dancers a Royal Charter. She created the Rank of Morrissey and established Monarchical approval of appointment, which lasted until the 1640s.
[edit] Ben Jonson
The legendary playwright remains #1 in Time's Top 100 List of Frequently Misspelled Names, beating Ryan Seachriest by 4,000 votes. The first man to hold the rank of The Morrissey: pussy hating playwright. The Morrissey was granted the title in 1601, at the same time Royal Charter was granted. Johnson began Morrissey dancing as a way to cope with having failed to steal the Shakespeare from his arch-nemesis William Shakespeare during a duel in 1598. His tenure was marked by the establishment of many well known Morrissey conventions, including the famous Gladiolas, the rite of Celibacy, and the absolute allegiance to the cult of Demi-God Oscar Wilde.
Ben Jonson led the company for nearly 25 years (From 1601 to 1623), and established many elements and techniques which are now considered integral to proper morrissey dancing. Among these are:
- Usage of ceremonial Gladiolas
- The requirement of celibacy. (This was enacted in 1615, to quell rumors surrounding the group's activites)
- Near-worship of Oscar Wilde.
- Creation of standard moves, including the Morrissey Punch, and the Morrissey hair-sweep.
[edit] Other famous Morrisseys
- Mary Wollstonecraft The first female Morrissey, held the title from 1791 to 1797, when she died after incorporating a live childbirth into Morrissey Dancing. The shocking violation of the celibacy rules left the Morrissey Dancing community reeling for years after. This child was named Julia, and years later she would follow in her mother's footsteps as the third female Morrissey.
- The Morrissey Known As Morrissey Tenure lasted from 1979 to 1992. Noteable for resigning in disgrace, followed by exile to the United States. In the USA he has founded the rival style of Mozzing, and has vigorously argued for its inclusion in the Olympics. His fanatical followers have recently been linked to dangerous incidents of violence.
- Yuchi Kazatoto The first ever Japanese Morrissey was a radical choice as Morrissey from 1812-1818 with many senior Mozzers finding themselves disillusioned with the new Morrissey, the Eastern League of Morrissey was formed in Ankara, Turkey with Robert Smith of The Cure, fame being made inaugural Morrissey. Morrisseyism was later reconciled when Kazatoto was revealed to be the long lost step brother of Johnny Marr, intent on bringing Morrissey down. Kazatoto was executed by being thrown into the river Mersey on a bicycle on March 17th 1818.
- Peter Gabriel is the 1970s prog rock Morrissey.
[edit] The Morrissey Known as Morrissey
By far, the most famous Morrissey to hold this hallowed post was the Morrissey known simply as “Morrissey.” He achieved his rank by managing to be the only person from Madchester who didn’t like dance music, and was widely worshipped by English, American and Latino fanatics called “The Smiths.” These adherants proclaimed him to be God, cut their hair short, and wore thick black-rimmed glasses and combat boots. They rejected their prior lives, adopted the surname “Smith,” and loudly proclaimed that the “world won’t listen.” They were often mistaken for homosexuals, though it is far more likely they just had severe problems meeting girls.
It is alleged that Morrissey once had an affair with Oscar Wilde-with the help of the Smiths he composed the instrumental siren song "Oscillate Wildly" in an attempt to lure the Irish sex fiend back to him. Further evidence is displayed the Morrissey known as Morrissey song “Cemetery Gates (I’m Going to Pound You)” which describes an incident where he and Oscar Wilde beat up poets John Keats and William Butler Yeats in a Cemetery after Keats and Yeats accused them of plagiarism. Wilde has never outright confirmed allegations of this affair, but only laughs hysterically and winks when asked about it, occasionally patting his backside and... (Oh god...).
The Morrissey known as Morrissey became quite rich as a result of his long tenure. After leading the troupe for some 15 years, in 1992 he faced allegations that he sympathised with an extreme left-wing group of thatched-roof supporters, accusations that he had killed his uncle, and rumours that he was considerably maladjusted. Scandalized, he began an affair with Damien Hirst and used his considerable earnings to flee the country for Los Angeles. There, he has formed a splinter faction of Morrissey Dancing called “Mozzing.” The “mozzers” are bitter rivals of the Morrissey dancers, and seek to replace the Morrissey troupe as the only legitimately recognized Morrissey dancers in the Olympics.
The Morrissey known as Morrissey put "The Fear of Morrissey" into the resedents of a welsh town called Borth. He wrote a song calling armagedon via nuclear attack onto the innocent Borthians. It is widly beleved that he did this because the town of Borth's liberal attitude to dance music and puppies enraged his religious beliefs. The resulting panic caused the richer residence of Borth to buid nuclear bunkers. Now that The Morrissey known as Morrissey has fallen from power and the threat of nuclear armagedion is no longer present the largest of these bunkers has, ironicly, been converted into the best nightclub in wales a veritable dance music heaven.
However, this Morrissey is not as good a Morrissey as Peter Gabriel, who is a better Morrissey than Morrissey himself.
But was he gay? Really, we won't judge, it'd just be interesting, you know. We think he is, but clarification would be helpful, the music is good, we won't stop listening, but for trivia reasons, after all, what if we need the answer in a pub quiz.
A reason for Morrissey's depression could be down to his parents. They moved from Ireland just before he was born. So you English can naff off, he's ours. He'd be much happier in Éire! ! !

[edit] Current Moz
The current reigning Morrissey is Russell Brand, a British actor famed for his performances in the lesser known Shakespearian tragedies Men Behaving Badly and Bob the Builder. Russell quickly denounced the tyrannical excesses of his predecessor’s reign, and has spent the last 13 years working to reform and transform the troupe’s traditions, to much controversy.

[edit] Recent Developments in Morrissey Society
On August 26, 2005, it became known that the former Morrissey known as Morrissey had placed his Los Angeles home on the market. It is not currently known for what purpose. However this sale is concurrent with the former Morrissey’s widely reported purchase of a massive weapons cache, and the mysterious appearance of propaganda posters which espouse vague—though violent—action against as-yet undefined “infidels.” These posters can be seen especially in the Mozztown district of London, and the Moz Angeles neighborhood of Los Angeles.
The sudden appearance of such inflammatory rhetoric, combined with the widespread assumption that his Arsenal is enormous, has led expert observers of the Morrissey Dancing scene to speculate that he may be planning some kind of violent confrontation with his successor Neil, in a bid to reclaim the title he relinquished in scandal and humiliation 13 years before. However, at present this is base speculation and as his current whereabouts are unknown, it must be assumed that his intentions, as of present, are lawful.
Another rumour suggests that he has joined his former lover, Damien Hirst, in an effort to establish a South American dictatorship with the help of Nancy Sinatra. She has promised to send the US Marine Corps to this end.
After having been spotted hanging around Père Lachaise cemetery in Paris, it is feared that he is trying to turn into Jim Morrison. Watch for facial hair.
It is also speculated that the former Morrissey known as Morrissey has been found rounding up tormentors in preparation for his well publicised extra-secret storming of Pyongyang, in order to restore himself as a world power.
Strangely, Morrissey is a staunch vegetarian and animal rights activist, yet appeared in public wearing leather shoes, because "there is no alternative". (He was shocked into shame to discover that there is a viable alternative -- that is, shoes not made from leather.) Interesting.
Recently there have been reports in the press in the [UK] that a strange super-bacteria has been created by The Morrissey in his image which is known only as MRSA. Scientists agree that it has been responsible for the lengthening of fringes and for the increase in emotional behaviour amongst teenagers. Under a microscope the bacteria itself resembles a minute Gladiol, which explains why there is lots of it in hospitals as flowers naturally gravitiate towards sick people when nobody is watching.
