[u2thewho]

The Great Gatsby is a masterpiece of social criticism, as is Pop.

Mallard Fillmore

 

[martha]

Mallard Fillmore is a boring right wing comic strip

U2 is an exciting left-leaning rock band.






spelling tests.

 

[thankyou]

OK, the Aramaic language was used in some of the sub titles for Mel Gibson's film the Passion of Christ. Mel Gibson also starred in the film The Million Dollar Hotel which Bono collaborated in.

that was a good!

Spelling tests... people fail tests, Rush Limbaugh failed at sports analysis, Rush Limbaugh insulted Donovan McNabb, Donovan plays in Philadelphia, Philadelphia also hosts Ryan Howard, Ryan Howard is the name of a character from The Office (US), who has the boss Michael Scott whose hero is Bono.

this one is a little simpler, Bono failed Irish,and part of the Irish language is spelling (ie spelling tests). Otherwise he would have ended up going to University College Dublin! Good thing he failed it, or he wouldn't have been in the band. can you imagine?


PS: "the office".


phillyfan26, what's was going to be your next subject?

Mosquitoes make this weird buzzing noise... the same noise my U2 iPod gave me when one of the earphones broke down while listening MoFo

 

[phillyfan26]

The U2 iPod is made by Apple, who competes with Microsoft, which makes software for PCs, "Dude you're gettin' a Dell!", "Dude, Where's My Car?", Cars are made by Ford, Built Ford Tough, Aaron Rowand is tough, Aaron Rowand ran into a wall, the Berlin Wall, Achtung Baby! recorded in Berlin.

Prague is famous for the beer + Hrabal, (well not only)

Muesli

 

[Pero]

Muesli is mostly eaten for breakfast, like cereals.
Ben Stiller made one video parody with cereals lucky clovers

roller skates

 

[martha]

Roller skates= roller disco

U2 did some song called Discotheque





the water cycle (Can you tell what's on the walls of my classroom?)

 

[DreamOutLoud13]

Words associated with the water cycle (evaporation, condensation, precipitation) tend to end in 'ation'. The lyrics in the outtro of Bad all end in 'ation'. Bono could probably slip water cycle words into the song when singing it live, and hardly anyone would notice.


Toulouse Lautrec.

 

[Greenlight]

Toulouse Lautrec.

Toulouse Lautrec featured in the film Moulin Rouge. Ewan Mcgregor sang a snippet from Pride (in the name of love) in the film.

I'd just LOVE to hear Bono sing "this isolation, desolation, EVAPORATION! CONDENSATION! PRECIPITATION!" That would be the best Bad ever.
