no one will stop you.. nor will try.. cause your opinions often get ignored :) JK

U2 are far over done, i swear they continue to make the same songs over and over.. or at least they sound the same to me.. like most 'pop rock' bands they left the rock in the 80's and went all pop in the 90's and 00's at least to me.. which only makes me dislike them more, they lost what was U2 and gained what is hardcore mainstream cheese..

all the reason of which i hate bono has already been named. he's doen everything one can do to stay in the media's eyes.. some day.. oh some day he will run out of things to do..

The only reason I dislike Bono is because he is held in such god like status. When it's not warranted.

It's like them winning the best album of the year award. They didn't deserve it.

Plain and simple. Their music does absolutely nothing for me.

Of course, but I don't think the ADMINs and MODs care what we say as long as it is on topic, and to be honest I don't think anyone here has been banned for insulting the evil being known as Bono.

Well if you want to achieve that you're going to have to fill all of your future posts with as many negative references to Bono as possible. I would do it, but I aparantly I'm treading on thin ice as it is.

Eat your hearts out, i tried the same thing with Michael Angelo Batio, all i got were a few warnings. :(

5. Having to hear Beautiful Day everytime I watched football for 2 years
6. His mullet at Live Aid
7. How To Dismantle An Atomic Bomb being praised to high heaven when even the most diehard U2 fans I know say it`s sh*t
8. Those f*cking I-pod ads
9. I hate being being told to donate money by multi millionaires
10. Brian Eno could have been working on his own albums instead of producing their crap.
11.Their first 5 or 6 albums sound identical
12. Their drummer was screwing Naomi Campbell , one of the most loathesome women on the planet.
13. Bono sueing a woman over a hat he`s not worn for 20 years.
14. Bono throwing a hissy fit over his line on the band aid record
15. He`s friends with Coldplay
16. Their music just makes me want to throw up

hope this helps
