I think my mom is on to my "obsession"

[madonna's child]

here's a sad story:

Madonna was having a live web chat today, but i had to go to school because i had a presentation. so i was telling my best friend, gina, about it...

ME: guess whose having a web chat today?
GINA: bono. or Madonna. it's one of them.
ME: am i that predictable?
GINA: yes.
ME: it could be somebody else, i have other intrests. really. it's not all about U2.
GINA: so which one is it?
ME: maybe it's sarah mclaclan or...
GINA which one is it?
ME: ...Madonna.

apparently, i've become boring. or at least, one dimensional.

Okay, not really a mom story cause Mom's hip and is totally into U2, not as much as I am, but enough for her. Anyway, here's a convo I had with my younger bro the other day...

Bro: *seeing my desktop on my computer (a still of Bono with the sun in background from SATS vid)* What is that?

Me: That's Bono.

Bro: It's a guy! It looks like a fruit or something.

Me: Well, it could be a lemon, I guess. But it really is Bono.

Bro: Who's he? What kind of a name is Bono?

Me: Jeff, Bono is in U2.

Bro: Me too? What about me?

Me: Not you too. U - 2.

Bro: What's that?

Me: It's a rock and roll band. They have been around for years. I went to their concert last week. I love them. And I have Bono as my desktop.

Bro: So they're old guys?

Me: Yes, Jeff, they're just a bunch of old guys.

Bro: That's kinda weird that you like old guys.

Me: *gives up the conversation and leaves the room*

How am I supposed to be related to these people?

------------------
One love, one life...
Give peace a chance!
Don't let the bastards grind you down!

Bono: I don't walk, I swagger! I sashayed once, but just once. It wasn't for me.

7:00pm Bono plays Tetris on Powerbook instead of writing lyrics.

I was watching the Zoo TV: Live from Sydney one day and had a rather difficult time explaining The Fly and MacPhisto to my sister.

I'm 16 and my parents think it's unnatural to be obsessed with U2 so they nearly sent me to a mental institute. I said I wouldn't care about that apart from the fact I wouldn't be able to listen to U2 which I think just made it all worse lol who cares what they think

Mum thinks I have brainwashed her now with all the U2 I listen to cos she has borrowed one of my cds, asked for some for Christmas which it being U2 I have gladly bought her and she now which is my proudest moment likes Bono

I have converted quite alot of people
