The Sisters of Mercy

The Sisters of Mercy are a Post-Punk and Goth Rock band fronted by the somewhat arrogant Andrew Eldritch, who is now the only original member left in the band.

While Eldritch often bitches about how the band is not "Goth Rock", it is considered by almost all who are educated on the subject to be one of the greatest first generation Goth Rock bands.

They made two good albums: First And Last And Always and Floodland. Then, most likely in an attempt to sever all connections with the "goth" label, Eldritch made the hard-rock piece of crap that is Vision Thing (Ribbons being the only decent song).

Their two compilation albums, Some Girls Wander By Mistake and A Slight Case of Overbombing (their Greatest Hits), are both fun listens.

The band is also known for their somewhat cryptic lyrics.

Their sound is similar to that of Fields of the Nephilim, Big Electric Cat, Red Lorry Yellow Lorry, and even some Joy Division songs.

The other members of the band created the bands Ghost Dance and The Mission (known in the USA as The Mission UK), both of which were decent bands.

The most popular Sisters of Mercy song is Lucretia My Reflection.

merlyn style

merlyn style is the sexual position used by only the most skilled individuals. This position is so named after the founder of Hump Day . The sexual position entails a dude lifting the girl in midair and performing cunnilingus with the girl's back against the wall. The girl, if willing, then goes down shortly and follows the order of the Kama Sutra involving all of the senses and then rides you hard. The amount of penetration will make you and any other male orgasm and heaving and sweating for more. Males tend to be feel that they are tripping after the woman rides them tightly. This position pretty much involves anything and everything DUH.
It's Hump Day (Wednesday)! Boy, I can't wait to try Merlyn style tonight with my girl.

Merey

NAME:
muh-ray

A Merey can have the first impression of a bitch, but once you get to know her, she'll be an amazing friend.
This is probably because she tends to move around a lot so tries not to get too close to people too quickly.
Because of moving around she has probably seen many of the sights of the world and because she probably has old money, she has high expectations of life and probably aims to be in the performing arts (dancing, singing, acting) and is probably very good at it.
what a bitch!" "Oh no, she's a Merey!!
