My eyes began to glaze over and my brain began to atrophy a short time into this, so I did some skimming in order to keep my synapses firing.
At each break and dot divider I thought, “whew, it’s over” – but then I scrolled down and, to my horror, there was more.
Bono’s penning is bad. REALLY bad. Like a bad writer trying to be all writery and write like (what he thinks makes) a great writer. Or something like that. It sure makes me feel better about all the crap I wrote in high school third grade.
And/but Bono is a grown man and ought to know better.
And why didn’t the editors, well, edit…? Or just nix it? (I guess if you’re the NYT you don’t say “no” to Bono.)
