Infallible.

Because you're cynical thoughts about a man you don't know are more substantial than what comes out of the man's own mouth? Ok then.

Oh come on. Really?

Marsh: "You, sir, are an arse."

Joe Bloggs: "I assure you I am not an arse."

Marsh: "Oh! Sorry buddy, I don't know what I was thinking, I have clearly made an error. I mean, you must know yourself better than I know you."


Well Marsh, let me tell you something. I am literally always right. Always. And I'm damn sure that I know myself better than you know me so... You can't really say that I'm not. And I say Bob Geldof is a self serving, tax avoiding hypocrite. Mind = blown?

I'll leave you to this strange fixation you have with insulting a man about things none of us know anything about.

Enjoy yourself.

Tabloids print an exaggerated story like 99% of their trash, Geldof says it's nonsense but he's obviously lying.... because two members of his family died from heroin overdoses...... and you don't like him. Logical.

Sigh. The Adele thing, true or not (I personally suspect it is true, though accept that many of the tabloid reportings of it are exaggerated, though that's irrelevant) has relatively little to do with what I dislike about Geldof. I can't even say for sure that I do personally dislike him, because I don't actually know him. No more than any of us can say that we LIKE him... Again, because none of us know him.

It's also not what I've been focussing on in this thread regarding Geldof / Africa / Band Aid and what I think is inherently wrong with it, what I dislike about the man in THAT sense, since maybe my first two posts in this thread.

But if you want to focus on that to make a point, that's entirely up to you my friend. It's a bit weak, though.

YOU were the one to raise those points in the first place.

If they're irrelevant to what you want to say then keep your weak irrelevant points out of the thread.

It will come to a point where nobody will stick their neck out to help anyone, anyone would think Bob was advocating conscripting the unemployed and shipping them to Liberia to nurse the sick rather than asking people to buy a 1.99 single

Its actually crazy the backlash about this, yet think of all these people saying what a great job the celebs done raising awareness for when they jumped on the 'ice water' bandwagon..

Haven't seen anyone on here say they wouldn't give to a charity for ebola. Lots of people have already donated. It isn't like no one gave anything until Bob stepped up and pricked everyone's conscience, although that's what's coming across.

I don't consider them irrelevant but you implied that my entire problem with the Band Aid concept, and the way Geldof sells it, is based on what he (ok, ok, "allegedly") said about Adele and me having some sort of "odd fixation" on him / disliking him for this and because of his family issues... which completely ignores the majority of my other posts in the thread which didn't reference either of these two factors at all

I didn't imply those were the only things at all. I was mocking your irrelevant points.
