A perfect example of why U2's Bono is full of it

    Bono's silence cures cancer, but he never shuts up.

    I want to run
    I want to hide
    I want to pay lower taxes
    Yet condem genocide
    I want to reach out
    So the world knows my name
    Because my band has no shame
    Oh, my band has no shame!

    This thread will not end well, but it's gonna be a laugh riot along the way. Hell, what am I saying? It already is. ;D :D ;D
     
  4. I believe that's "laff" riot.

    Now that was funny, but you can suck it. I saw U2 in concert last December and it was awesome. Best big venue show I have ever seen and I have seen a ton.
    Is Bono a pompous ass? Yes. Dude flew his favorite hat first-class from England to Italy. Didn't even take up a seat. The pilot put it in the cockpit, so no one would touch it during the flight.
    Does he good works? Yes. Does he slip into whoredom when promoting himself or his projects? Yes.
    Is U2 the greatest band ever? Umm, no. But much of their music is pretty good and they really are awesome live.

    Instead of wasting your money on a U2 concert, you should have sent i to Africa to help with debt relief. Cut out the middle man. :)

    Fuck that... I'm not as giving as Bono.
     
  9. Much ado etc.
    I like the story about the hat, though. Never heard that one.

    Okay, throw me just one bone. PLEASE tell me that you see the irony in you posting about a thread that was started being much ado about nothing. Please. Restore my faith in mankind.

  12. poin' thinks I talk too much about certain topics.
    I should be posting more cute little pictures encouraging carpet-bombing the brown people.
