Just watch him on stage, he acts like he's God's gift to humanity. Watch the Superbowl performance for an obvious example. It really gets on my nerves and kind of sickens me. What's even worse is his fans. Why must you scream and faint when Bono notices you're alive? You're just contributing to his overbloated ego.
Bono, you're a cool guy and all, but you're no little Jesus. Also, please stop acting like you're hot stuff on stage.

Who does he think he is by interacting with the audience? And what's all this crap about helping Africa? What's he trying to do? Use his popular status as an opportunity to do good in this world? He is going way too far with that. And that whole 9/11 thing at the Super Bowl. What a big ego....he dedicated the performance to those who passed away on 9/11. WHAT AN EGOTISTICAL THING TO DO!

I think that's uncalled for. No one has the right to call themselves bigger fans than anyone else. We're all fans.
That being said I think Shart has some ego issues himself; claiming to speak for "everyone" and building threads without any examples or facts.

It sounds like you have a "jealous" ego yourself, here...

This is hilarious. If you had just added a to that post of yours at the very end, the unnecessary exchange of words could've been avoided. Although, it was pretty clear you were sarcastic.
xana dew said:The only time I recall being annoyed by Bono was when he used to jam the camera in his crotch or the time he laid down during the Boston DVD while singing With or Without You. You can't do that song justice laying down on the ground! Seriously, it's usually little things like that.
I figure it takes a healthy amount of swagger and bravado to make a really riveting frontman -- and Bono has those in spades. Most of the time I find Bono's shtick amusing and even endearing.
Watching him closely over the years, it seems like deep inside he's really an awkward, clumsy, even insecure, kind of guy. Perhaps he overcompensates a bit when performing or in the public eye? I don't know, but he's such a thoroughly decent human being that I'm never bothered by it.
Zootlesque said:What about Jim Morrison? He wasn't exactly your humble rocker now, was he? Mr. Mojo Rising indeed!
And Liam 'spit at the audience' Galagher as somebody said. Or even Roger 'spit at a fan / dominate and take over the band' Waters? But I have to agree that some people do get put off by Bono's (I would like to call it confidence that comes off as inflated ego) and as a result dismiss (miss out on) their music.
