:evilgrin:

"If there was a list of things a pacifist should never say, "or else" would probably top it. Everything about this song is stupid. Love and peace or else? Or else what, you pussies? What are you going to do about it? Sing another crybaby song for your crybaby fans? Tough shit bitches, war kicks ass.

Can't you hippies just piss off and surrender somewhere quietly for once without singing a song about it?"

as well as hippies (which are, on the surface, demographics at odds with one another). my personal favorites are:

"As for the "Vertigo" song itself, it's a mix of twangy guitars, unnecessary spanish, and Bono's stupid glasses. "

"This song was supposedly written about the daughter of guitarist "The Edge." Yeah, that's his nickname: The Edge. I used to think names like "The Edge" or "Spike" were cool, but then I turned 12."

"Coming in at #2 is "Miracle Drug" from the same album. When this album first came out, people wouldn't shut up about the hype that "U2 has made a triumphant return to its rock and roll roots." Triumphant? What exactly has U2 "triumphed" over? The only thing triumphant about U2 is their uncanny ability to produce the same cookie cutter sound that's slowly crippling originality and innovation on airwaves around the world. Congratulations you hacks, you've made FM radio unlistenable. "

Me thinks he thinks too highly of himself. :-)

if you're referencing bono, then i would certainly agree :evilgrin:

it is impossible for said person to have too high an opinion of their person :evilgrin:

:-)

pretty funny :D

It just looks egotistical and not very creative to me.

So complain more about lack of creativity. The belly-laugh is doing me a world of good.

Liked the new album a little at first, but now only like a couple songs. It's an average album. Disliked Metamorphosis.

That has nothing to do with how I dislike him anyway. There's nothing ELSE to like about this guy, IMO, and I certainly have a right to my opinion. Not that it's needed, but I'm sure many feel the way I do.

That's all I have to say on this topic.

too many crazy graphics and things that may get me nailed at work :D

I don't like U2 all that much, but I have a hard time taking seriously a person who thinks that Pantera has a monopoly on all things that rock.

I just ignore articles such as this.

Even for people not crazy about U2, that guy's personal attacks ruin the article.

amusing. maybe not tho :shrug:

I can't believe it was so hard to pick up on!

'Cuz it wasn't that funny. I'm not the biggest U2 fan, but i don't dislike them actively, either. Early stuff i liked then, but now, it's just ok.

But, this site is just doing a curmudgeon thing for effect. Been done a million times before. Unoriginal, and not terribly amusing.

and, I own all U2 albums up to (and including) Pop. so there :P

. . .funny means i laugh. Not laughing. Not funny! See how simple i am.

God, the music isn't even that bad. But Bono is THAT insufferable.

I'll never understand the bashing of him. Now Toby Keith's lecturing is insufferable.

He hates everybody and everything in this world except for beef jerky, pirates and tabasco sauce. I've read his entire site dating back to 1998, BTW.

Maddox kicks ass.

Hell no I'm not about to bash this guy... his site made me smile and/or laugh for a good hour this a.m. Can't ask for more than that, can ya?

thanks for posting that link!

:hi:

I used to love his hatemail page, but he hasn't been updating that much. He just loves pissing everyone off
