Songs of Experience 36 - Now with 20% fewer acronyms

[clerks]

I'll take RefuJesus over "Force quit and move to trash" any day

No idea what is going on in this thread -- but fuck yes to this.

Don't forget his best lyric ---

"Switching to Geico to save fifteen percent, but there is no insurance for being behind on the rent."

 

[CosmoKramer]

Or yoko

That made me laugh and then I thought about it more and it made me sad because the lead singer of my favorite band looks like Yoko Ono.

Looks like Yoko, wishes he was John Lennon!

 

[cseggleton]

In all fairness, how many aging, overweight, over confident, Crazy dressing men who wear ridiculous glasses are there?

Either It was Bono or Elton John.

Now this is an A hole comment! [emoji12][emoji1365]

 

[gweeps]

Don't forget the earring!

 

[pacemaker]

Maybe Leo moved to Minnesota and is getting visitation privileges!

No he lives in Green Bay

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

No he lives in Green Bay

Right. He was in town for the Packers Vikings game.

Big Packers fan, Leo. Just like Dad.

One of these three had to transfer their Delta flight yesterday, and/or is helping to bring the sexy back.

I'm sad again because Yoko has the coolest glasses of the three.....

Sometimes life comes at you fast

God, that’s depressing.

I know we joke about how bad those glasses are but there is no denying that they make him look 15 years older than he is not because they are ugly as shit but because they bring attention to/magnify his wrinkles around his eyes.

 

[LemonMirrorSky]

Bono, please read this thread! XD ...because the people surrounding you would never tell you how ugly those glasses are.

That's what 4 years and a un-flatteringly close up pic do.

 

[RoKKeR]

The glasses certainly don’t help, but from 2013 to now the dude has seemingly almost died a non trivial amount of times. Shit happens.

[Hollow Island]

I think Bono looks pretty good

 

[danm]

Let’s not forget Bono is now nearly 60. Also with his brush/brushes with mortality it must have been a stressful time. Stress ages people and Bono isn’t a exactly “young” anymore.

 

[DeVaul]

i think bono looks pretty good

 

[Hollow Island]

He's weathered, yeah, but as DeVaul said he's nearing 60. He lives hard, and I think he's pretty handsome even in unflattering pics. He looks his age, really, and the wrinkles are probably partly due to all the time spent in the sun.

I see a lot of people his age who look worse, who are badly out of shape, wheeze...he's fine! He's probably in better shape than half of this board, at least.

 

[rennowba]

Who cares how he has aged, he has aged gracefully. As we say it here in England, songs of experience is the dogs bollocks ( that means good) so who cares

 

[Axver]

Did I accidentally just walk into PLEBA.

 

[dazzledbylight]

This. It could be a lot worse, you know (ie, Bowie, Prince, etc.).

 

[dazzledbylight]

Ah, well said, trev.

 

[dazzledbylight]

Leaving on a sweeter note Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays to All!

(and travel carefully in any bad weather)

Not anymore! PLEBA is deserted.

 

[hasin73]

Happy Holidays to all my fellow U2 fans & their families.

So how many of you have ditched all your surplus copies of SOE from the ticket bundling on unsuspecting friends and relatives today?
