ennui
Listlessness and dissatisfaction resulting from lack of interest; boredom: The servants relieved their ennui with gambling and gossip about their masters (John Barth). dictionary.com
"The phrase mihi in odi est, meaning I hate or dislike, gave rise to the Vulgar Latin verb inodire, to make odious, the source of the Old French verb ennuyer or anoier, to annoy, bore. This was borrowed into English by around 1275 as anoien, our annoy. From the Old French verb a noun meaning worry, boredom was derived, which became ennui in modern French. This noun, with the sense boredom, was borrowed into English in the 18th century, perhaps filling a need in polite, upper class society.
Ennui is different from boredom in that ennui describes weariness or annoyance over a long period of time; boredom is relieved easily, while ennui is constant." wikipedia
J'obtiens toujours ce que je veux oui... Mais l'ennui.. C'est qu'une fois que je l'ai obtenu J'en veux plus! Lio

Hey Due and Dudette!! Pat here from the FOJ, I just wanted to let you know that we want you to come check out our final Spring showcase that we are playing at The Rainbow on Monday April 27th. PLease come out!! It is pay what you can (which can be expensive or cheap, whatever you like).
It's at Exile Infoshop on Saturday the 18th. I'll be playing a set, along with May Jun (also Ottawan) and Two Kids Running Away (sweethearts on tour from Alberta).
Will be good time. Come chat, maybe we can make connections for shows later in summer!
holy fuck...you guys are fucking geniuses ...and as it has been revealed, fantastic thespians. well this kicks the shit out of any show poster even one painted by Leonardo (the ninja turtle) who, believe me, has game.
Ennuie!, You are yet another proof that bigger does not mean always better. :you are the types to believe in what you do and to have a clear direction thematically,which helps to make you stand-out in lists. The song of your's i have as my profile is refreshingly "punk" if I may use that label (?).Innovative F/X and coughs.vox. It was time I picked another to replace the one I had from a (much larger[,at this stage]) artist. Pardonnéz moi for the long comment.Should I be writing this in French,anyway?Since you are in Ottawa;close to Montréal?. It is a little like OUR Canberra;a compromise of a capital - between our two large cities.Non? We do not have the French-English thing,just a Melbourne-Sydney rivalry.Our national capital is half-way ... equi-distant from the two Bon Voyage, P. ken-Gee
Yeah, they did. I managed to squeeze my way to the front row. Hedley, Faber Drive, and Sean Kingston managed their way here too. Someone has started bringing up bands though, it's part of a church thing I think.
