Bono vs the Scotsman

Postby cams » February 19th, 2012, 5:29 pm

Bono, lead singer of the rock band U2, is famous throughout the entertainment industry for being more than just a little self-righteous. 


At a recent U2 concert in Glasgow, Scotland, he asked the audience for total quiet. 


Then, in the silence, he started to slowly clap his hands, once every few seconds. Holding the audience in total silence, he said into the microphone, "Every time I clap my hands, a child in Africa dies."


From the front of the crowd, a voice with a broad Scottish accent pierced the silence...

"Well fuckin' stop doin' it then ya evil bastard!"

Very funny. Between this and the Action Figure Therapy, I've had lots of good humor the last couple days.
