All-Encompassing Trip

Make Bono History print: Bono, the lead singer for U2, is performing a concert in Ireland. As part of his promotion for the anti-poverty campaign in which he plays such a prominent part, he stops singing and starts clicking his fingers, repeating the action every three seconds. The crowd falls silent, and after a while, Bono speaks: Every time I click my fingers, a child dies unnecessarily from a preventable disease. After he has been doing this for a few minutes to a largely silent and transfixed audience, someone helpfully shouts out: Stop clicking your fucking fingers then.
