Yes...at one point during my freshman year of high school, I became known as "the girl who would eat Bono's puke". Here's how it happened...
I had a teacher who was kinda wacky, and he always made fun of U2, just because I was a fan. When he'd take roll before class and get to my name, there was often a jab at U2 or Bono inserted, just to tease me.
One day, he said something like, "What's so special about Bono? He's just like the rest of us...I mean, he wears clothes...he pukes..ya know!" Everybody laughed, and he said, "You'd probably keep his puke in a jar!"
My reply? "No, I'd just eat his puke right off the ground."
I was being sarcastic, however...nobody picked up on that fact...
Everybody cracked up. My teacher said, "You'd EAT Bono's PUKE?"
"Oh, of course," I replied...obviously with nobody noticing me rolling my eyes or the sarcasm.
Well....at the end of the day, my best friend ran up to me and said, "What did you tell Mr. Thorne?!!!!"
I said, "What?" She said, "He's telling all of his classes about a girl who said she'd eat Bono's puke! He wouldn't say your name, but everybody knows you're the only person who likes Bono!"
Whoops...*lol*

But you don't know the half of it..."
