1. I don't get it? Was it meant to be funny or did you actually think I was bobplaysthedrums - though why would you - it's some Brendan kid.

    Nah, I was just bored with the lack of U2 news so haven't come here for a while.

    And I will have to keep a look out to see if our child prodigy says anything smart.

    That being said, some would argue that he couldn't be all that smart - otherwise he would have stopped himself from posting gems like:

    STAIRSAY TO HEAVEN IS THE GREATEST SONG EVRT - NO MORE DISCUSSION ZLLOWED


  2. I've been smart enough to keep myself far of the alcoholic drinks for 18 years, far more than most of the people I know... Not, let me kill some of my cell brains ever now and then, will you? And no, I wasn't really saying you were logging through Bob's account, it's just that the past days' discussions lead some of us to think that you both were the same person (just because he shows a similar arguing style than you).

    Ah - I thought it was something like that (or he was asking about beach clips) but I was looking at his recent posts and they aren't at all similar to what I would say (eg. he thinks Streets is the highlight of a show, he thinks that the music & intelligence study is worthless) and he doesn't even write like me. Any examples?

    Huh?!?!

    Who is that "some of us"? Why would I login into his account and act like myself and/or why would he login to my account and act like himself? Anyone who behaves like that has some serious mental problems or is just really bored.



  5. Why do you think that? Do you think that disliking vinyl isn't being very intelligent? You probably don't see intelligence the same way as me anyway.

  6. If you had been around here for as long as I/we have, you'd find the comparison between you and vaquish (Lyndon) pretty funny. Matt did it Nevertheless, I didn't expect any of you both to get it, so no worries.

    I found that incredibly rude and insulting. You shouldn't post things like that on what is apparently "one of the most pleasant online U2 communities". It's disrepectful to say that someone you don't even know just "couldn't be all that smart" and jokingly call me a "child prodigy". You don't really know what a person is truly like by reading their posts.




    I didn't say anything about Led Zeppelin on this forum, I've seen that in-joke a few times around on this forum so it may had been said originally by someone here or on another forum or it could be one of those internet memes making fun of people that don't know about music. I've been listening to Led Zeppelin since I was 7, thank you very much.

    I think this is the only thing he has said that is very similar to what I would say. I could have said word for word what he said there. Everything else he had posted in (very) recent times is not similar at all.

    No, I don't think that the study is worthless, I believe there is a correlation between intelligence and music, just like there is a correlation between obvious stuff like education and wealth.

    Can you be wealthy and uneducated? yes, Can you be an idiot and like classical music? yes.

    Doesn't mean that either premise are false
