"who is more of a bell end, bono or sting?"

i think it's an issue that needs authoritative resolution

andy

no poll. it's sting

Marquis

Just to second Andy, on that axis it clearly has to be Sting. Too many embarrassing favourites on the Bono/U2 side. However, a proper question for a poll might be Sting vs. Billy Joel.

injoke

why must it be sting? he doesn't feel the need to wear sunglasses all the time for starters.

Marquis

"Punk" for hippies. "I hope the Russians love their children too". "I don't drink coffee I drink tea, my dear". Doing an incredible bad Dowland album. Only Billy Joel plays in that league, imho.

David

Sting: _"I am a farmer who looks after the land to nourish it and not to plunder it."_ It's gotta be Sting, despite quite liking this t-shirt: 

Liz

Bono all the way. When asked if he would want to be President of the US, he replied 'But that would mean I would have to move to a smaller house.' And he thinks he's the Pope. And he's really pompous. Urgh.

andy

Sorry Liz. There's not going to be a poll because it's Sting.

unaesthetic

i'm voting bono.

sting's a wanker with his 'safe for middle-class white people diet reggae' and his tantric sex and all, but he's way less of an intrusive fecker than bono. bono's always always out there telling us how to live our lives while shilling for ipod, chartering jumbo jets for his hat and the like. preachy, hypocritical cnut.

David

I still hate Ben Fogel more than both of them to be honest.

andy

i've grown to like Ben Fogle in the programme where he remains so relentlessly chipper whilst walking to the arctic. I've decided that he's just a good bloke and possibly more likeable than the version you see on TV

Marquis

The Sting among television presenters is clearly Nicholas Crane of Coast - the thing that does it for me is the 'eccentric' city umbrella in his rucksack. Blarh.

David

I'm aware I'm in a minority on the Ben Fogle hatred. I'd say he's exactly like you see on TV and you either like that or want whatever his latest stunt is to backfire. Of course it never backfires. He's fucking Ben Fogle.

tosscat

Can we pop the real Pope into the poll please. He gets my vote eveytime.

injoke

can we get a poll on whether it's necessary to have a poll to sort this mess out?

David

What other site pulls together such awesome lists? - Fake farmer - Fake Pope - Real Pope - Ben Fogle

injoke

i confess i'm now leaning towards fogle. i mean what a bell end.
