Stupid/Funny Questions Your Friends Ask You About U2...

[wertsie]

Ugh...My editor over the summer knew I liked U2...and one day we were all sitting at our computers (I worked as a reporter, fyi) and he was like, "Oh...Jen, I just found this article...says U2 were killed in a plane crash!" and I was like, "No, they weren't." and he said, "Would you cry if he did?" and I said, "Yes!"

That's just mean!

LMAO @ this thread!

Well, in Puerto Rico it's very possible to be asked who the hell are U2 more than once a day... I'm like, this is an island, not a bubble! Where the have these people been living???

"Pride" blasting on the radio...

Me: Yay, U2!
My Boss: That's the only U2 song that's any good
Me: Yesterday you heard With or Without You on the radio and you said that was the best love song ever
Boss: Yes, so?
Me: So? That was U2!
Boss:

AB was playing on the stereo in my living room. My dad turns to my mom and says (as if I weren't in the room) "I thought she had grown out of her heavy metal obsession". Poor dad!

Well, those are some of the funny ones.

Me: U2 aren't "done." What are you talking about?
Her: Oh really? I swear I saw him in a movie or something...
Me: What movie? Where? Huh?
Her: Something about football...I saw it on MTV or something...

Those are hilarious!

I also get this a lot:
Why does the Edge always wear that thing on his head? Does he have cancer?

and
Why does that one guy (pointing at Larry) look so much younger than the rest of them?

The best was when I showed one of my friends MacPhisto- she was so frightened!

 

[Sevikins]

The only one I can remember was when my best friend asked, "Doesn't Larry play the guitar?" I'm like... "NO, that's Edge." She never asked that question again.

 

[*BOOMCHAA!*]

Mom- "MacPhisto is Bono's gay side coming out."

 

[BabyLemon]

funny thread!

My husband, watching the "I Still Haven't Found..." video:

"Hey where is Edge? And who to hell is the long haired guy in this video? I thought, U2 never changed their members!"

A friend of mine, ofter telling him something about U2:

"Can you imagine to name your child Edge?"

I walked through Vienna in a Shirt with a 25 cm big "U2" logo on the back. A woman saw this, turned around and say:

"Oh my god, crazy people... they even are fans of our subways!!"

(In Vienna the subways are titeled with "U1", "U2", "U3" and so on...)

I was driving around with my dad yesterday, and I was talking about when Bono was MacPhisto, but I didn't think my dad would know him by name, so I said, "When Bono dressed up like a devil..." and Dad said, "You mean MacPhisto?" I asked, "How did you know that????" He looked at me and said, "Oh, come on...HOW LONG have I been living with you???"
