He's the president of people's hearts

SIGHZ. Dreamy.

He was always an irritating cunt
But an irritating cunt with an Americana fetish is one thing..

This is something else.

It's his colossal smirking self regard and complete belief that every word he utters is gravely important, and the belief that somehow by being the performing chimp the powerful take out for a walk once in a while that he is accomplishing anything apart from his own debasement. And sunglasses.

I want to stomp on his face until I get an erection.

“We have a saying in the Netherlands…”

Haha

Official Ireland, in the form of its patron saint of glib soundbytes, had spoken.

Dude

 

[oh shit]

Who cares what he thinks? Bono's personal psychic intentions - cynical, well-meaning, stupid, self-regarding, etc - are all totally irrelevant.* Based solely on the available empirical evidence, he is obviously a force for evil in the world who has done nothing - not one thing - to change the world economy towards a more egalitarian state.

Given that his media platform is vast and ours is just this internet forum, we have a moral duty to constantly call him out on his perfidious influence, in which simulacra, empty statements, and stupid glasses are all that "it" takes, whatever "it" is.

*He may or may not be pure evil. If there is a God, he won't tell us.

Can we all agree that mostly people were not well-disposed to him before he changed his tax situation?

He had his card long since marked at that point.

He was a cunt before he ever even joined U2

I'm going with Alan Partridge's assessment:

"The man is mentally ill"

 

[east hastings]

He was eating in the clarendon over the weekend with John Rocha and Sean Penn. They don't order items on the menu they just give their food intolerance and ask the chef the send out food.

Why did Bono get so much flak? - Political News | Irish & International Politics | The Irish Times - Thu, Mar 13, 2014

Harry speaks about the 2 or 3 sentences in the speech that were on target and forgets the rest of it where Bono strokes every cock in the room reminding them all of their GREAT importance and the GREAT importance of what they are doing and about how WE are determining the future of Europe.

(fuck the chumps, the actual people of Europe)

We should have hung a couple of bankers and a politician or two from lamp posts as an example to the rest. That fact that we didn't means we'll be listening to shit like this forever.

 

[Hector Grey]

I like Bono, he's a grand bunch of lads.

A supposed defence that's at best half-hearted and really just a plug for his book.

Hats off, that man.

I wish I was so eloquent when I call someone a lying ignorant cunt.

 

[Cormcolash]

It'd be great if he said "And we also need Bono to fuck right off" at the very end
