At a concert in Glasgow a few years back, the music has stopped and Bono starts slow clapping. After a few seconds he says ‘every time I clap my hands a child in Africa dies of starvation’.
Quick as a fox, someone in the crowd shouts ‘stop clapping your f**king hands then!!!’

Except that’s simply a rehash of a 2005 Jimmy Carr joke and didn’t actually happen. Versions of the same joke have also included Hilary Clinton, Barack Obama and others. So not quite the quality that gullible people (unable to grasp how to use Google) think it is.

Try using punctuation and correct spelling of words. Perhaps then people might know what in blue blazes you are saying.

Dammit, I know I should have used a 2004 Jimmy Carr joke. Using a 2005 joke was a real schoolboy error
Why do gullible people not know how to use Google?

You have to hand it to Bono. He has lasted longer than most other unctuous, opportunist politico/celebs …

Whats the difference between God and Bono?
Answer – God doesn’t walk around Dublin all the time pretending he is Bono.

Stupid “joke” really. After all, there are hundreds of other differences between God and Bono.

Poor man’s #SimpleMinds. I blame the Yanks for most of his fame. They wouldn’t all know who he is if they didn’t all claim to be Irish. Americans are NOT Irish. They couldn’t even find it on a map.
