I should bump this thread up. People get awfully touchy about this subject. I don't understand the compulsion to defend Bono and his bald spot hair.

I know, right? It's oddly compelling freakishly entertaining so sad.

It's every PLEBAn's dream for Bono to wake up in their home, puking on the furniture, and wearing nothing more than a t-shirt covered in Lance's mom's menstrual blood.

I bet Bono's puke smells really, really good.

You're my new favorite gay man. My sister is my favorite gay person, though, sorry.

That used to be called Chromium Whores, right?

 

[phillyfan26]

really? i missed that.

they seemed nearly virginal in "Shuttlecock: At the End of the Racquet."

"I think in Adam's case, unfortunately, on that tour, he got into ... all sorts of forms of indulgence and self-abuse in terms of alcohol and probably other substances and activities." - Edge, referring to Adam during Zoo TV

And then they all refer to getting into various amounts of trouble in Tokyo, including Bono waking up in some apartment with a peeing snake around him.

 

[Irvine511]

the critics are going to hate #4 -- typical pretentious Shuttlecock.

 

[corianderstem]

Where the Streets Have No Name is glorious.

You know what else?

I can't wait to hear this album.

... I mean I can wait. I'm just really, really excited about it.

 

[LemonMelon]

Oh wow.

And this is only what I learned at OT level II.

They kicked me out when I told them they were all fucking insane, but I stole their PLE-meter, so we're even.

well, Adam is a slut, absolutely. and good on him.

the Bono-snake story is in "At the End of My Racquet." it seemed innocent enough, Yakuza drug dens aside.

While teaching them how to apply eyeliner.

I wonder if Scumbo ever woke up with a peeing snake around him while he was in Tokyo. I'm positive that it happened to IYS, no need to even ponder that.

Anyone want to fly up to Seattle this weekend and pull a Lloyd Dobler on Little Miss Patience?

 

[corianderstem]

I've seen Bono's attempts at eye makeup. I don't think I want him teaching me.

Jeez, I'd better not throw out The Laz Signal in casual conversation at all this weekend, or he'll probably appear right outside my window.

... but I'd bet you'd be hard-pressed to find a ghetto blaster. And a cassette tape copy of NLOTH.

Isn't there a spoken word lyric in a Los Campesinos song about that? Or is that something about waking up in the bathroom of a Mexican restaurant? I always get them confused.

I'm waiting for a crude Ione Skye post from you now. What was she doing in Zodiac???

 

[Irvine511]

so, going back to an oldie but goodie as topics go, i'm sure someone with more Photoshop skills than i can do something with this:

i think it works on many, many levels.

 

[No spoken words]

Is that a photo of The Riddler?

 

[corianderstem]

It's a small red x in a box.


In other news, I love Daddy's Gonna Pay For Your Crashed Car. Even when MacPhisto sings it.

 

[phillyfan26]

My favorite random moment in U2 by U2 is when Bono returns home from the Zoo TV Tour and has to call Willie Williams to ask him what he should do to have a routine, and Willie suggests things like "go to church on Sunday" or "read the paper in the morning."

is fixed.

 

[corianderstem]

Wow.

 

[daygloeyes2]

I have nothing witty to add, but I just wanted to say this is kind of my new favorite ongoing thread.

I'll be addressing this post when I make my statement on behalf of Israel later on.

"Ad-Rock down with the Ione
Listen to the shit cuz both of them is boney
Gotta do it like this like Chachi and Joanie
Cuz she's the cheese and I'm the macaron!i"

 

[Irvine511]

Wow.

you know, because Boner looks like Robin Williams, and they're both LIARS.

and Jews.
