I didnt say anything about U2, so chill the fuck out.
I said Bono can suck a dick. I think Bono is a fucking sellout that exploits his good deeds for record sales. If you do something good for someone, dont flaunt it on national television. You may say that him doing that promotes others to do good deeds....but why do people have to be influenced by a celebrity to do a good deed? says something about today's society.

Yeah, it does say something about todays society....How is that Bono being a dick if he's trying to do something about it? This is what im talking about with your fake wannabe hardcore bullshit. You just state really randomly stupid stuff like pyro and then when someone questions the logic, you do the same as pyro and make up a bullshit response that makes no sense.
...and I assumed you were talking about U2, because outside of that I dont see anything to criticize Bono for, seeing as he isnt known for anything except U2 and his involvement with live 8/UN/Africa. He isnt a solo musician.

Dont get me wrong, I cant stand anything he's done since 1988 - I just dislike it when people write off a musician's entire career because its trendy to, fact is Bono has done amazing stuff - The first 4 U2 albums are a whole other era, and are distinctively post-punk, whereas their new shit is middle of the road adult orientated boring rock.

there you go putting words in my mouth. i didnt say bono was a dick. i said he's a sellout. i dont care if he does good things for people, he still exploits it for his own good, and i think thats a lame thing to do. im giving you perfectly good explanations of everything, and yet you keep thinking my reasoning is somehow flawed and that it means nothing. get off your high horse. this is my opinion, and i think im doing a good explaining it, so agree to disagree.

lol this is irrelevant, you said he can suck a dick which is waaay better and isnt similarly an insult
(sarcasm above in bold)
i dont care if he does good things for people, he still exploits it for his own good, and i think thats a lame thing to do. I don't know all that much about Bono, but I know thats a pretty big call to make that he is exploiting giving money to starving people and just wasting the UN's time....all for his own good. Especially when you yourself aren't doing shit. That means exploitation or not, he's doing more than you. Yeah, thats a pretty big call to make. im giving you perfectly good explanations of everything, and yet you keep thinking my reasoning is somehow flawed and that it means nothing. get off your high horse. this is my opinion, and i think im doing a good explaining it, so agree to disagree.

IM ENTITLED TO MY OPINION BECOZ IM A HARDCORE GUY YUYZ
