Oh wait! I almost forgot! Here's something odd that someone said about a specific band member...

My husband said that if he ever had to have sex with a man, he would choose the Edge.

Can't say I disagree with him, though!
 
A so-called friend of mine came shopping with me once. We saw a number shirt (#55 I believe), and I sort of contemplated buying it. She pretty much hates U2, so she said "What's the 55 for - Bono's age?"
 
*"Is that NSYnc or the backstreet boys?" -my mom, really wanting to know which groups was running around in leather with giraffes and angelina jolie

*"Why is he dressed like the devil? I thought he thinks he's God or something" -brother #3

*"Larry has man cleavage. That's U2 Porn." -brother #1

*"His NAME is Bone-o. If he's gonna have all those children with you, it's Bone-o. TRUST me."-Katie

*"Bono is old and ugly"-Katie

*"Larry's FLAMING"-Katie

*"Larry's gay!"-Erin
"So's Justin Timberlake" -Katie
"HEY!" -Erin

*"OOH! Who's THAT? Is that Richard GERE?" -mom, upon seeing Edge

*"Who's that? Bob Dylan?"-my dad, upon seeing my BonoShirt

And then there's me, with U2 on my toes......

My brother came out with another one yesterday, he was in my room and we were listening to the music on my computer, and my screensaver was on. And he was strongly convinced that Larry was Adam, but anyway, his latest comment was, "He is too old to be called Adam." I said, "Oh, cause NOW there is an age limit on NAMES? What on earth do you want him to do say 'Oh wait, I'm 41 I have to change my name to something more adult?'" Then we decided that we wanted to rent a movie, and I said, "No we have a good one here." and he knew I what I was getting at, and I said,"But it's a MUSICAL JOURNEY!" and he said, "I DON'T WANT TO WATCH STUPID RATTLE AND HUM!" Then I said, "Oh Jason, you knew it was Rattle and Hum I am SOOOO proud that you knew that!"

Why is it everyone (except us) thinks Bono is ugly? Or fat? (he is FAR from fat!) Bono is the absolute opposite of ugly. When I first started liking U2 early this year I didn't really think about Bono or anything, but I know I didn't think he was ugly or fat. :p

I was at my best friends house during the "Tribute to Heroes" telethon. When U2 came on, my best friend's husband looked at me and said "Which one of the members is the one you think is hot?" I told him "Larry he is the drummer." When the camera man did a close shot of him, my friend's husband looked at me and said while he was laughing "He looks like Kevin Bacon. You like Kevin Bacon." The only thing I could think of at that moment was Footloose and how dare he compare Larry to Kevin Bacon. I was so mad.

aside from the ubiquitous mispronounciation of Bono as BONE-O, I think I recall someone asking, "is that Ledge?" (or Hedge or Wedge or something) when they saw all the pics of Edge I had at work.


LMFAO!

Thats the funniest thing I've read all day!

It's very hard to think of just one rude comment as I receive so many on a daily basis. The best reaction I got was when I sent round an email to 30 or so people with the Bono elevated pix. Nearly every person replied - even going as far as accusing me of putting them off their breakfast!

I thought it was a rather mean comment of my friend. He likes to give me a lot shit about things that I like. He must of thought this was something that he could really have fun with by making that comment. Little did he know he was entering dangerous territory. I should have told him to FOAD afer he made that comment.

Thank God I don't get anymore crap about U2 anymore....or maybe ppl are not buggin me about it anymore!
My mom used to say things about them, but she has seen how vocal Bono is about important issues like AIDS, drop the debt, and many others, now, she loves him!
She says she really admires him for efforts! She says there should be more ppl like Bono in this world, it would make it a better place!
smile.gif
She wants Bono's autograph!!
I think she likes them all, but she still can't understand what I like about Sparky!!
She's been wonderin that for years now, poor thing!

Sparky's Girl, it's so good to see you again! I've missed you. Don't worry about the "anymores", I sometimes feel that way writing fundraising letters. How many times can you use the words supporter, generous, commitment and thank you??!!!!

Anyway, I live a relatively U2-hassle free life. If anything, people just think I'm eccentric. No one can get over that I would think of going to more than one concert.

However, back when they won that Grammy a few years ago and Bono used the F word, OOOOHHH I got a lot of grief from a bunch of very uptight people. Mostly now, people just look at me and smile in a "that's nice dear" way, the same way they would look at a child with an imaginary friend....
 
My mom today: *sees my binder* Who's that?

Mona: It's BONO!

Mom: Who's Bono?
