Stephin Merritt Wants Shoes

Stephin Merritt, from The Magnetic Fields, recently did an interview with the Village Voice. This is the best part:

You know, I’m supposed to be honored that they named some shoes—a whole line of shoes—after me, but they don’t send me anything? Nuke Europe!

That seems like a great place to stop. Thank you for talking to me…

Sure.

…Unless you care to clarify that latter comment?

Smash the European Union.

Great. Thank you Stephin.

I want my shoes. Destroy the world. Goodbye.
