          That was so TEH CLEVAR. This must have happened in Europe.

            He's the host of a show on NPR called "Waddaya know?". He has a very quick, snappy sense of humor.

                It is a take-off of the old Groucho Marx bit is it not?

                  I don't know where it originates from, but I've heard it a million times in many variations. The core bit is the same.

                    It must be a take-off of Peter Pan.

                      Bah im sick of Bono
                      Learn to overcome the crass demands of flesh and bone, for they warp the matrix through which we perceive the world. Extend your awareness outward, beyond the self of body, to embrace the self of group and the self of humanity. The goals of the group and the greater race are transcendant, and to embrace them is to acheive enlightenment.

                        When Bono announced that every time he clapped a child in Africa died, someone from the audience told him to stop doing that.


                        Love snopes.
                        It's almost as if all his overconfident, absolutist assertions were spoonfed to him by a trusted website or subreddit. Sheeple
