Seeing that lol isn’t really a word, I’m not sure that its past tense has a proper spelling. Then again, here, I’m not sure ANYTHING has a proper spelling.
“here, I’m not sure ANYTHING has a proper spelling” – You’re thinking specifically of LOLcat sites there,
I’m not sure LOL has actually been recognised as a word by any of the major dictionaries, but I’d suggest that, used as a verb, it should form tenses etc the same way as laugh does.
Lol is a word _in_ the English language. And it’s our fault. Bloody internet generation, I remember when we were too busy finding BBS telephone numbers to invent new words…
What on earth is this diatribe in here? I thought this was supposed to be a tribute to those who have passed. Not a lesson from a frustrated doctor who must not have passed his licensure tests.
You ******* ***** who has no heart at all! This isnt a LOL!! i truly despise you, Clint. You obviousley have no friends and no heart. ******* ***** who has no ******* life!!!!! I don’t curse that much, but THIS was called for!
Now that I have your attention,I’d like to set some facts straight about MJ.
Q:Did he touch those kids?
A:Nope.Because of drug use and depression in his early life,he tried to be more happy and giving.He was a millionare,so he took LOTS of his money and showed some kids a fun time,with no sex.One kid got greedy and thought that he would sue MJ for assloads of money.This only made him back to being depressed even though he won the case since the kid had no evidence,a shaky story with no wttnesses AND MJ’s family and freidns were asked about him.He was no pedo.
Q:Did he bleach his skin?
A:Yes and no.He suffers from Vitiligo,a disease that turns black people white,although it covered most of his body it left ugly patches.He bleached those since vitiligo cannot be reversed.
Yeah, all that is ok. You left out the fact that the boys father, Evan Chandler, was tape-recorded saying amongst other things, “If I go through with this, I win big-time. There’s no way I lose. I will get everything I want and they will be destroyed forever…Michael’s career will be over”. The boys own mother didn’t even believe his story. Michael was no pedophile. He was simply trying to live out his childhood that he never had as a child. I was perfectly ok with that until he had children (my heart goes out to them by the way). It’s too bad he will probably be remembered for this sick lie and not for the decent man and musical genius he truly was.
Awwwe. We lost a child molester. Whatever will we do now? The entertainment world will surely come to an end.
But on a brighter note- he did pay the families well for the use of their children. So I guess that nullifies what he did and now only his music is of concern.
I will someday. And none of you will even know when it happens. You will someday. And none of MJs family will jump online to “respect” you. Simply because they do not know you.
Just as you do not know MJ or his family. Therefore you have lost nothing today.
I consider Michael Jackson’s death to be a mercy. A mercy for the injured families who now know he can never hurt them again, and also for the sad, confused man who was so far from reality he barely knew what it looked like.
There’s no doubt in my mind that Vitiligo contributed to his personal problems. I’ve seen the effects for myself, which is pretty much why I get so annoyed that the whole “bleached his skin” nonsence is so often treated as fact. Sorry if I sounded annoyed with you – you didn’t know.
You don’t see it on MJ because of how thick his face makeup is because of it. Towards the end it was no longer a makeup issue because vitiligo was total.
:S even though it doesnt matter. he’s dead now. And e’ll forever be remembered as the king of pop, like elvis is remembered as being the king or…everything :L (of peanut butter jelly time!)
keeping in mind that who we are today is not the product of our past achievements, mj is most certainly better (for the rest of us) in his final resting state than he was in the past 15 years.
he USED TO BE the greatest pop artist in the world. in the 10 years prior to death, he was a washed up, baby shaking, child molesting weirdo.
I just don’t see why people still claim he molested children. If my memory serves me right he was proven innocent and the whole lawsuit thingy was just works of some greedy people who did not care what it would do to Jackson.
He just happened to live in his own little world and see himself as a child and liked to play with kids(in a way that does not include anything sexual) due to his love for them and love for the innocence of the children.
He might have been something that normal people would call a freak but he wasn’t a monster.
R.I.P. King of Pop
….He just happened to live in his own little world and see himself as a child and liked to play with kids(in a way that does not include anything sexual) due to his love for them and love for the innocence of the children…….
I know one of his childhood friends and she attested to his having this personality as a pre-adolescent. He used to hide out at her
home, bruised and distraught. She would take him hunting for insects and tree-climbing. He adored animals.
He used to annoy me…now I feel sadness for him, hope he’s in a less hurting place.
Just because someone’s dead doesn’t mean they can’t be criticized. I have a huge problem with you saying “he’s dead, so uh, stop claiming he molested kids, it’s no longer an issue.” Yeah, it is an issue, and if those children really were molested, it’ll continue to be an issue for the rest of their lives.
His music career was unbelievable, of course, but that doesn’t give him a free ride. Don’t trivialize his crimes just because of his talent.
ok first of all, michael was a LEGEND! He will always be remembered! How dare you insult these people, who may I remind you DIED. I bet you sure wouldn’t like it if you died and ppl said that about you. I KNOW the world would be a better place with out ppl like YOU!
i wouldn’t care because i didn’t know them and even if i did, I’M DEAD SO WHAT CAN I DO lol idiot.
i read about this crap this morning and i was like ‘michael jackson died. lol’
Finally- Someone who realizes that none of these people should be defined by their job, but by their actions in life. Oh how quickly we forget the awful things people do and idolize mere humans.
Who’s speaking ill? Honesty is never a lie. Right is never wrong. I simply don’t idolize people who are just that. Only humans.
When did lieing about people become a social grace? I did not know them. They did nothing for my life… or yours.
I hope people are honest about me before AND after I die. Good or bad.
Neither is honesty considered always polite. There are times when refraining from speaking unpleasant truths is the gracious and kind thing to do. No one is asking that you lie, simply that you restrain yourself from being unpleasant.
Sure they were merely people but you want to know something? These people contributed far more to this world than you who sit at your computer instigating sick lies about them. Michael Jackson gave more back to this world than you ever did. Sure the man was out of touch with reality but since when was that a bad thing? Some of the happiest people on the planet are completely insane. I pray that all 3 of these people, for their wonderful deeds, rest in eternal peace.
Noxx, just because YOU didnt like MJ, doesnt mean the rest of the world didnt like him!!you’re cold. You have no heart whatsoever alongwith the a$$h0le who decided to put “first!” on this. This isnt a LOL, its a “farewell card”.
Yes they do…that’s because we’re all connected and connections are clumpy and not evenly distributed….otherwise one celeb would die every 446.8 hours like clockwork…….this rule often applies to airplane crashes too.
All have had a rough few years – I sincerely hope they have finally found peace. I won’t say I always agreed with MJs actions or beliefs (at all!), or that I always loved his music, but he did influence music hugely – from the Jackson 5 to Thriller…
RIP All three.
As far as MJ goes, nobody should be saying “Thank god he is dead.” You have no proof that he ever did anything. People get accused of stuff that they did not do all the time. I am not saying he didn’t do it, I am just saying that none of us knows either way.
All three will be greatly missed
I sincerely hope nobody is saying that. Frankly, right now it doesn’t matter whether he did it or not. What matters is that an American icon has died, surprisingly young.
If I were rich and it would make them shut up? You betcha I would. What kind of parents chooses money over justice anyhow? If he was really guilty wouldn’t the parents want justice instead? IF he was in fact guilty, those parents basically slapped a price sticker on their kids.
Most of this just proves that there are three things that you shouldn’t talk about in public. Religion, politics, and Michael Jackson.
I think that he made some brilliant music. RIP
And RIP Farrah! Thank you!
OJ didn’t kill his wife. All the evidence leads to that a drug deal went bad. And Michael Jackson is innocent. The people who took him to court were claiming it and trying to take money from an innocent man. May all Three of them rest in peace, and lets hope they are in a better place.
Wrong. OJ was the murderer. He was effectively found guilty in the civil trial, though he couldn’t get jail time for it due to the outcome of the murder trial. Then there are the multiple occasions on which OJ himself admitted it to various people.
::PFFH:: Have you ever seen a little film called, “Juror No. 5″?
Guilty as hell.
“When she whines about the pesky inconveniences of jury duty, Deena Mullen is strikingly unaffecting. But when she talks about the specifics of the O.J. Simpson case, and the monstrous brutality of the murders of Nicole Brown Simpson and Ronald Goldman, she is powerfully compelling, and so is the film made about her.
Mullen thinks Simpson is guilty as hell, and her account and insights should give even Simpson’s few supporters second thoughts.”
Really? I know for damn sure that in his place, if I HAD the money, I would pay to keep them off my case. Especially in something so high profile that a fair trial could have been a laugh. Prison vs. giving up money that I have? And the amount was never declared, it was rumored.
RIP to all three, it amazed me how touched I was, especially by MJ’s death.
Yes! Someone who is FINALLY understanding! *virtual high five for understandment!* I’ll miss MJ, even tho I never met him… D’:
R.I.P, King of Pop, Michael Jackson.
Two rather larger than I had realised parts of my childhood gone… Weird how things you hadn’t thought about in year suddenly come back to you. Like remembering sitting up with mum, watching Charlie’s Angels. Or being 7 or 8 years old, trying to get some sleep on a summernight, while the neighbours across the street played “Beat It” really loud on their stereo…
Wow, you have no respect do you? Believe it or not, somebody actually BELIEVED in these people, hell, even loved them. You are a horrible person to say that the world is better off with the top two. You, sir, make me sick.
Loke, have you no heart? Everyone on this planet is the son or daughter of someone. I don’t know about FF’s mom, I realatively sure EM’s mom has passed. But MJ’s mom is still alive and she has to be heart broken right now. Burying a child is NEVER easy on a mom or dad. Shame on you for being so cruel!
Speaking from experience, you couldn’t possibly be more right. I feel bad for the entire Jackson and Fawcett family right now. Michael may have been a bit screwed up, but he had people that loved him. And the death of any human being is tragic.
Dangit c’mon, just yesterday everyone hated the guy!
now because he’s dead we gotta turn a blind eye to his chrnic stupidity and possible pederasty?
What’s all this “respect the dead” stuff. The dead don’t need our respect, they’ll never know and MJ’s family are to greived to care what anyone else says. Do we say nice things about hitler? he’s dead?
sure mj’s no hitler but he certainly wasnt a sane person, not for 10 years at least.
“Godwin’s Law is a natural law of Usenet named after Mike Godwin (godwin@eff.org) concerning Usenet “discussions”. It reads, according to the Jargon File:
As a Usenet discussion grows longer, the probability of a comparison involving Nazis or Hitler approaches one.”
Why do those of us who couldn’t care less about dead child molesters the ones with issues. If you ever have a child of yours molested (and I hope you don’t) you would not care any more for them than they did for you.
The world is better off. His family won’t shed one tear when ANY of us die. Not one person on this thread actually knew him or his family. People die every day and none of you cares. Why him? Why?
You can still buy his music. You have lost NOTHING.
Though kids wouldn’t be happy ‘coz the King of Pop can now haunt them anytime, anywhere… even when they’re taking a bath. No place will be safe for little boys everywhere…
MJ’s death is kind of a shock. He was only 50 and he died of cardiac arrest. I hadn’t even heard about Ed McMahon!
Rest in peace.
As to the ones posting crap here… Considering that you’re posting insults about someone who just died, maybe when you die people who know you will do the same. Seems likely, since you’ve proven what a$$holes you are.
You might not hear it, but your family might. Even if you didn’t care about him, three kids lost the only parent they knew. Have a little respect for them.
Bye Bye, I may not know you, but for sure, you are one disrespectful and thoughtless human. Maybe these comments are an outlet for you for various reasons, such as your lack or morals and maturity of emotions, but people actually read these and make sense of them.
I don’t know what you are, maybe Satanist or Atheist.
But for every person who has a religion that believes that “do unto others as you would like them to do to you” that’s reading this, I need you to request tha “bye bye” gets what he negatively deserves.
And now, Bye Bye, I suppose you’ll respond to this with some kind of smart aleck remark, or ignore this statement out of pure ignorance? Or maybe you’ll realize that people aren’t just toys in this world.
Or you can just smirk and close your web browser.
Damn, we come here for laughs, look at this tribute; say hey thats not humor. So we get into the serious mode and then we see a sadistic lunatic disrespecting this tribute. Well, I’m done. I’m off to go have a happy life unlike what you deserve. Maybe when you change you’ll deserve happiness.
I’m totally behind you, Justice. I admit I joked about MJ a few times, but I hope the jokes will die with him. The music is all that needs to be remembered.
I don’t get it. Why are we respecting someone now that he’s dead when while he was alive he was mostly at best a freak and at worst a monster? Shouldn’t we tell people we respect them while they’re still living?
Why do we wait until they are dead to forgive them and wipe away their transgressions?
“Why are we respecting someone now that he’s dead when while he was alive he was mostly at best a freak and at worst a monster?”
Good points. I agree. What is with the sacredness of death? Is it some sort of primitive, hushed, whistle-past-the-cemetery-type of behavior? Why do we have to forget what harm someone caused in life, simply because they’re dead now? Is being dead enough “punishment”? Is that it?
Hey- don’t assume that all atheists are jerks like bye bye. That’s totally unfair. A belief in god doen’t mean people are always or (even ever) polite, well behaved or considerate of the feelings of others. Neither does a lack of belief in god prevent a person from being polite, well behaved and considerate of the feelings of others.
@ Justice, what do you mean “maybe Satanist or Atheist.” Just because people are Atheists doesn’t mean they have no sense of moral values, or are terrible people. It is even possible, bet you didn’t think about that, huh, that Bye Bye is a *gasp* Christian! But enough of that.
I think it’s sad these people died. You can say what you want, but MJ was a gifted musician, even if he did bad things. And Farah Fawcett was indeed a gorgeous woman. And I’m sorry to say, but I never before heard of mr MacMahon (European here)
Umm, not trying to help their case here, but really Michael Jackson’s family is probably not roaming this forum right now looking for what ByeBye is saying about him either. There’s not really any point in chastising him.
That’s EXACTLY what I just did! LOL! I didn’t read this comment before I posted mine! Gonna miss him, though. Do you know that he was actually going to have a revival concert starting July 13th? He might’ve gone the way of Britney Spears and come back. Who knows?
Oh right. So I caused MJs death?
I better turn myself in to the proper authourities then.
Seeing as you seem to be the authourity of this blog do you want to handcuff me?
Where are your facts to back up this statement?
Do you have research and figures to prove that it is true?
Every day I see people respecting others who deserve their respect.
Just because someone sang doesn’t mean they deserve respect.
Why can’t you and the rest who make snide comments just let other people gather and mourn? I don’t what in the world happened with MJ the later years of his life, but I am mourning the incredibly talented young man he was. I was surprised do feel as I do. I guess I was mourning the kid all through the last decade or more, but today the loss is clear.
Really, try to compartmentalize this a minute and go to youtube and look up “Who’s Loving You” videos or the Motown 25th Anniversary special. That’s the guy I’m mourning today.
Or maybe Bye Bye just enjoys being snide and thoughtless and rude. Please go away now and find something positive to contribute.
Simple, as robot chicken proved, the real Michael Jackson was kidnapped by Aliens years ago. The guy who died was the evil replacement meant to take over the world… Some how.
See? He’s celebrating Earths victory against yet another alien invasion.
OMG! Really? How can you mourn what you did not loose? Did you know him? Did you have coffee together once a month? Did your memories of hearing his music on the radio dissappear this afternoon?
You have lost nothing. Why are all these people going into meltdown? His cd is still in the store. His videos are still on YouTube. You still have all you ever had of him.
Hey, if we’re saying good things about them…unlike SOME people…it should be okay. I actually am being respectful of MJ. He just had a big meltdown. There WAS the possibility of a comeback, because he had, and STILL HAS fans.
Nothin’ to do with beliefs, Jackson was a pedophile, pure and simple.
He may of once been nice, and most people were holdin’ out hope that he’d get his act together. It’s why people are attacking you over the jokes.
Personally I’m just to damn young to care about the guy, other than in the broad “all man are brothers… for whom the bell tolls” sorta way, which is why I’m just screwing with ya for the fun of it.
Point of fact, if my children had been touched, no money on Earth would have stopped me from tearing everything from under him and then either having him jailed or killing him with my bare hands.
Now you have to wonder, if you are innocent, which is better, just shutting them up or dragging the case on and on and on and on. Obviously nothing happened because they just put a price tag on their kids.
Amen DWN! That was the “proof” I need to believe MJ didn’t molest any kids. I think his behavior was erratic, and he preferred the company of children to adults, but I think that was a non-sexual preference. I think he wanted to be a kid forever. (Hence “Neverland Ranch.”)
When a person goes to a funeral, do they stand up and talk about all the horrible garbage the person did? No, instead they speak of their life and the ways the deceased has blessed others. I find it appalling that a man has died, and people are saying dispicable things of him. Would they go to his funeral and say them? Look his family in the eye and say them? What benefit is there in saying these things? Why not simply say “Rest in Peace” or somesuch? Doesn’t it just make the speaker sound crude or ill mannered?
Okay well come on. Mention Hitler in the same sentence with ANYONE and thats the comment that would be made. Poor bet! I think you may have just taken advantage of your roommate…
This excuse of “don’t speak ill of the dead” is ridiculous. Death is a natural thing and we’re all going to experience it and it shouldn’t be a cut off for criticism. You’re basically saying “Get all your insults in while they’re alive” Why? So they can defend themselves or something?
And yet another shows no respect for people. MJ and Hitler are two totally different people. MJ didn’t kill millions of Jews, now did he? Show a little respect, man.
Yes, though instead of a card it would be a refusal to admit at the funeral door, or being shunned “Oh. Don’t tell HIM that this person died. He might come to the funeral and disgrace the deceased!!”
You know what, we all know Michael Jackson did those things. There’s a time and a place for that. This isn’t the time. It is the place, but not the time.
no, we don’t. None of us was there. None of the media that informed us was there either. We know nothing. Now, the things he did are only between himself and his Maker. It’s no longer any of our business.
Wait a minute! There was media there when little Blanket was dangled over the edge. And there are plenty of pictures in the media showing his change from black man to white woman.
If you expect another person apply the golden rule to themselves, but don’t try to apply it yourself, then you are being judgemental of the other person.
I don’t think that the person who died applied your so-called golden rule. But you are suggesting I don’t apply it to myself so that means I am in the wrong because I don’t think he applied it.
Let it go, both of you. Seriously, who cares? Yeah it’s a damn shame he’s dead (in my opinion) but not everyone loves everyone else. It happens. All the time.
Arguing over the internet is like racing in the Special Olympics…even if you win, you’re still retarded. (*gasp* “she mentioned retarded people in an almost negative manner!!” …..just something else for lifeless trolls to b!tch about….and GO)
This reminds me of the line in “Waiting.” “You’re the coolest f&$^ing guy at Shenaniganz! That’s like being the smartest kid with Down syndrome!” As a special education teacher, and sister to a woman with Down syndrome, I should be offended, but I laugh every time I even think of this line!
I don’t even get how YOU don’t get it. Think of how you would feel if you were accused of a crime you didn’t commit. How the heck do we know if MJ did what he did or not. He might’ve been crazy, but a lot of great people were thought of as crazy. Charles Darwin, for example. Christopher Columbus, for example. MJ had some great music and THAT’S what’s going to be remembered, NOT what happened at the end of his life.
That’s sort of the point.
Just because he had great music doesn’t mean all the other things should be forgotten.
There is too much of a culture of if you are a celebrity then you get away with whatever you want.
Uh, no, Darwin did NOT have sex with children. I mean that he was considered ‘crazy’ because of his theory. I can understand how you got confused, but that’s not what I meant.
Ya know, if I had done harm to children, I would deserve every WORD I got, and be thankful (although how one shows thanks when dead I’m not sure) that was ALL I got.
Once again, this is not Michael Jackson’s funeral, and his family is nowhere in sight. Do you really think his family is roaming this forum? Don’t worry about what Bye Bye is saying.
Actually it makes the speaker honest and respectable. If you always tell the truth and do whats right; the worst thing people can say is that you were honest.
Why lie about someone after they are dead? It won’t change the facts or make them a better person.
Um, if you think the worst people can say about this honest person is they were honest, you are being quite naive. There is sure to be at least one jerk ready and willing to say crappy things about the honest do-gooder whether they are true or not. Sad but true.
And as for MJ, yes, he was weird and troubled and had issues both mentally/emotionally and with his health. Some of us would prefer to remember him for his good points: his music and generosity to charities. And others seem to prefer harping on about the alleged child molestation. To each his/her own, I suppose.
Just stop, seriously. Do you feel like a better man slamming somebody who recently died? Does it make you feel like the better man? Do you WANT to be looked upon as an ass by the community?
Where did I slam someone who had just died? I posted a few jokes about someone I had no respect for while he was alive.
Why should that change because he is dead? Are we automatically meant to respect someone when they die?
Where is this community that is looking at my ass by the way?
IT used to be common decency to not say something negative about a dead person because they were no longer alive to defend themselves. And since we are online – the community seeing your ass-i-ness is the world at large. Or at least those with internet connection.
Which is actually less than 1 in every 4 people around the world. Did you know that? Less than 1 quarter of the people in the world have internet access.
And where did it used to be common decency not to say something bad about the dead? Do you have proof or statistics to show this?
I can recall people saying bad things about certain dead people my whole life. Hence the Hitler mention above, which is why it was mentioned, not to compare him to a person.
Ok. Fine. You win. Happy? You have the right as I decree – to make a complete ass out of yourself as a dead man’s expense. I’m sure it’s in the first amendment somewhere. Kay? There. Sheesh. Life is too freaking short to spend it making fun of people living or dead. Apparently you have hereby proven C.S. Lewis wrong – he stated that all humans have a basic knowledge of good and wrong, of decency and indecency. Thank you.
And my point is – if you knew the deceased personally and yet did not respect him – would you still go to his funeral, see his family and make jokes? Insults?
Well I’m part English, part South African, Part Australian, Part Canadian (And don’t even ask how the hell all that came about!!) So you can make all the jokes of my ethnicity you’d like I’ve heard them all before, no matter what RAICE I’m from (Thanks to Alan Partridge for that joke, but really I’ve heard all the Deeplomatic Eemunity, and Get me Reegs jokes before!!)
Well, Bye bye. I see quite clearly you have no brain and no heart…how the heck are you living? So he screwed up his life by making poor choices. Are you saying YOU never made poor choices in your life? Becasue if you are that’s the biggest load of bull I’ve ever heard of. NO ONE is perfect. Not even (gasp) you!
No, I never said any of those things you mentioned.
Why do you accuse me of saying them?
Also how do you know that I have no brain or heart? Could it not be possible that if someone I respected died then I would be very sad and sorry?
Exactly. And since none of us, I assume, knew MJ personally, then none of us has a right to insult him either. If we can apply that to you, if it is true we can’t say you have no brain or heart, then none of us can say that about any other celebrity, living or dead.
So you can’t insult someone you don’t know personally?
Does that mean I have to take back all those bad things I have said in the past about Bush, Cheney and all the other warmongering murdering bastards around the world?
(Now if we weren’t having enough fun with the MJ ranting I’m sure there’s about to be a lot more!)
i cant believe it
i feel so sorry for all of their families
i mean really look at mj
he has three kids and now that he is dead…..
pray for all their families
they deserve it
seriously
In the words of the Cyberleader Krang in the Tenth Planet (Doctor Who – #1 Played by William Hartnell) – “There are people dying all over your world but you do not care about them”.
You guys know what I did the moment I heard about MJ? I went over to my Guitar Hero World Tour game and cranked up ‘Beat It’ with the drums. I did it on Expert too and even though I failed, like, twenty times, I kept going and I made it! R.I.P., MJ.
Say what you will about Michael’s personal life, but I will remember him for the lasting impression he has made on the musical community. I enjoy many of his songs, and am saddened that he will not get the chance to make his highly anticipated comeback.
While I’m slightly too young to remember Farrah Fawcett or Ed McMahon, I know that they were also people who made great contributions to the entertainment world.
There is no doubt in my mind that all three will be missed greatly.
R.I.P. to the King of Pop, a true Angel and one of the best comedic sidekicks in showbusiness.
It’s funny. Everyone is so sensitive about saying bad things about Michael Jackson after he’s dead, but still people can badmouth the Catholic church, which over 1 billion people in the world adhere to dearly, and even people in this forum may as well, and it’s suddenly ok. Talk about double standards.
I’m glad that LOLcelebs knows when to be serious and when not to be serious. Apparently some LOSERS don’t know that. I think MJ’s going to come back as a zombie tonight and rip all these flamers’ heads off!
i can’t help but compare micheal jackson to oscar wilde one they both died young two they both had trails oscar’s was a crock meanwhile micheal who i believe suffered peter pan syndrome and wanted to relive his childhood. and three they both influenced alot of people so rip micheal, farrah your and angel and ed you entertained us and now your up in heaven
Man I love you “Bye Bye” is manipulating all of you. Keep it up man.
But remember mate, Theres no proof that MJ did any of the aforementioned. The only proof we have is that he dangled a baby from a window and was maybe a little eccentric. We have all seen visual evidence of this. But the rest is speculation. So dont believe everythign you read.
Anyways have fun. Keep reving them up so we can both laugh at their weak comebacks.
Actually do!! MJ just used his (formerly) vast wealth to buy the best lawyers and to bribe the parents with more money than they could earn in years. No wonder they broke. Besides which those kids aren’t Jacksons, any fool can see that. His “kids” are white, Jackson as everyone is reminding us is supposed to be Black. Therefore how could a Black man produce halfcaste children that look completely white. It’s time at last for the truth to be revealled (Of course it won’t be Jackson’s family are probably having a family barbecue on a fire produced by burning the hidden documents. So we’re now left with people believing that he’s some kind of angel when he is the worst kind of devil.
I think those people yelling “freak” are forgetting that he’s been in the spotlight since he was a very young boy, not to mention the abuse that all of his siblings suffered. He didn’t have a life like the rest of us, ever. So yea, he was odd. But he was still a human being. I totally expect to be ridiculed for this, but whatever. The world lost an incredible musician today, and his family and friends, especially his children, lost a huge part of their lives. It’s sad that all people see fit to talk about is what COULD have happened.
I stand by the fact that it was a huge bid for money, made worse by a society that jumps at the chance to scream “guilty” as soon as something is brought to their attention. Anyone hear the phone call between the father of the kid in the 90s and his friend? “Yea, if I ride this out I am set for life” or something. None of us will ever know, I just shrug off the people who think they do.
umm farrah fawcett, if that how u spell it? and ed mcmahon. he was a comedian if u would call it that, on the tonight show with whats his name…*cant think of it* and farrah was an actress who has been struggling with cancer. does that help???
*gasp*
Can you see the future or something??????? You say Patrick Swayze was gonna be next.
Bingo- Swayze’s gone. God rest his soul…
But seriously. That’s spooky! Nearly more spooky then what happened to one of my friends. She watched his film Ghost the night before he died. At the end of the film, she had a really bad feeling that he was going to die very soon. Next day- Swayze’s kicked the bucket!
So- you made a bet on Swayze being next and it came true. This world gets spookier and spookier every day…
This was a lousy day, but we’ll all get over this one way or another. RIP MJ, FF and EMcM. All three of you had a lot of talent, and all three of you went too soon.
As far as Patrick Swayze being next, I sure hope to god not. Anyone dying sucks, just wait till someone close to you kicks the bucket, its going to suck for you.
If i was the parent of a child who supposedly got raped by MJ i wouldn’t just let my self get paid off to keep quiet about it, i would fight until he was properly punished, so to be honest i do not believe he ever touched those boy’s in that way.
R.I.P Michael, Farrah and Ed! May the angels guide you to your dreams and family! Let your worry’s be gone, and happiness overtake your soul. For when others come they can see your smiling faces, and know, they are not alone.
I am a big fan of michael jackson. I’ve been listening to P.Y.T. ever since i heard he died, rest in peace MJ and Noxx you’re stupid for making fun of these three legends. R.I.P. all 3 of them
All of you fighting over MJ and whoever else. Cut it out. Defending him or not, you all sound like idiots. Putting up with people to rude and disrepsectful makes you look like you just want to have the last word.
My two cents are that I did love Michael. He was inspirational. He had good music and was a legend. To an incredible amount of people.
R.I.P. all three though. They’re in somewhere better now, without cares in the world or whispers behind their back. Or stupid debates on graphjam. <3
I just bought a new car stereo… When you shout out “Soul”, it plays soul music. When you shout out “Rock”, it plays rock music. Some kids ran in front of my car, and I shouted “fu**ing kids!”, and it played Michael Jackson.
I don’t think the troll intentionally used a Larry the Cable Guy joke, s/he was just copy and pasting jokes from a user-submission site s/he found on Google to start a flame war of sorts. Just remember never to feed the trolls, or they win.
BTW, for those of you not familiar with Ed, besides being the spokesperson for American Family Publishing, and Carson’s sidekick, he was also a WWII & and Korean War veteran, a marine aviator (the Korean War, flying an unarmed plane as an artillery spotter – probably more dangerous that his combat piloting in WWII).
I was not a fan of either MJ or FF. I personally find some of the “mourners” who have been on the news to be ridiculous as many probably couldn’t sing half of his popular songs or tell you anything about these lives. But non the less, it is sad for all their families, especially MJ as his was a complete shock. I think, for MJ, this might be better, he didn’t seem to have much peace in his life, and if he did do what people think, he’ll be judged by a hand much more real and honest than any court of law, but as it stands, those of you like realist need to understand that people are gone, two rather tragically. and you don’t have to know someone personally to feel a connection and a sadness when they are lost.
Even Hitler had people who loved him. MJ was never that bad.
well I only know who micheal jackson is out of these but I just researched the other two. Its quite sad when anyone dies but its weird when MJ does. I didn’t think he COULD die..
I believe Michael Jackson molested those children. Yet, I am sadden by his death. I was born in 1989 so he’s been around my entire life. I used to watch his movie Moonwalker over and over. It had some of the best music videos: Bad, Speed Demon, Smooth Criminal. “Drugs and bug and drugs and bug.” (‘course that’s not his line… but it’s in there.) My earliest memories of music are of his. So as far as he’s fallen, there will always be a little piece of me that stills adores him.
I hope his victims find peace. But also I hope he finds peace in death that he didn’t find in life.
Why do you believe that. Court said he was not guilty. I don’t believe he touched those kids in a wrong way. He was a very weird person. But ah well…I will miss him I guess. R.I.P. Michael
MJ Was found innocent by a jury of his peers. Just because he had the children in his bed or round his house doesn’t automatically mean anything wrong happened. He just wanted those kids who weren’t having a good life to be a bit happier so he did that by inviting them round his place and just letting them having a good time, not engaging in any sort of wrongdoing. He spent time with those kids so they could enjoy himself, because inside his head he was still young and there is nothing wrong with that. But if you feel that he has done wrong, then why don’t we look at other celebs eh? What about Madonna, how do we know she isn’t doing anything dodgy with the kids she’s adopted eh? And all these other celebs who have adopted kids? Think about that..Also don’t judge MJ by his face. Sure, it looked a bit odd at first, but it was his face he could do what the hell he wanted with it. If any of you went out and got plastic surgery to change your face and it looked a bit odd, i wouldn’t judge you by that, just your plain ignorance.
Plus, lets not forget about his career, made one of the biggest selling albums of all time (Thriller) and a lot of other good albums, something which i’ve never seen the ignorant people on here do.
WHY DID THEY TAKE MICHAEL!!?!?!?
….Farrah
I Knew A Day Would Come To That
She WAS Wonderful!
Lived A Wonderful Life!
Successful Career
Beautiful In Everyway!
It’s so weird though, my childhood memories were filled with MJs music and now he’s dead… dang… guess this is how my mom felt when elvis died… (yeah shes damn old… XD) R.I.P … the king of pop will be missed…
Because he is DEAD and you’re not. It is at least vital to show some respect to the dead ones and forget about their past, because they have been punished with the worst punishment. (-Aristoteles?)
There is no need for being hypocritical. By “showing respect” it doesn;t mean you have to mourn and cry. It means that, if you got anything not nice to say about him, keep him out of your mouth.
He’s dead; it’s over. I’m just asking you to respect the fact that he exists no more, so as to prevent any argument from happening.
I’m quite honestly tired of hearing about it between my mother in law screaming “OH MY GOD” last night making me think something was wrong with the baby or the kids to waking up this morning to all the TVs being on talking about MJ on and on and occasionaly mentioning Farrah in between quite litteraly i heard on the the “has more information on the final moments of farrah faucett” “We’ll get to that in a minute but back to Michael Jackson.” They were people…..people die….every day…..it’s an inevitable after-effect of birth. I’m not being callous I just have no attachment to people I don’t know in the slightest other than how the media portreys them… and besides that they were just doing their jobs….. celebrities or not, it was just a job….
You have a good point. Others have said similar things on here; that thousands of people die on this planet, every day, some in horrendous and unjust ways, and just because we got a bit of enjoyment from these entertainers, we act like they were personal and lifelong friends.
im giving respects, but i dont think it matters how less crazy or cooler or more respectable they were it just mater that somebody died. and quite honestly i dont understand why they are going all out and talking about life achievements or anything, my friends grandpa died just a few weeks ago and i didnt see anything on the tv. these people arent superbeings or anything…
they’re human beings just like everyone else and they should be treated as us.
I find it noteworthy, that all the acrimonious debate over Michael Jackson’s life and actions, has eclipsed the fact that there are two other people being memorialized here.
I’ve been reading a few blogs where people obviously dislike him, but straight-up have no respect for him or his family during this time. People sometimes believe going against the grain combined with social media is trendy, giving them an edge. We must be careful not to use a faceless Internet as an excuse to abandon humanism, respect and dignity.
I’m affected by MJ dying. I’m twelve. My nephew is affected. He’s only known who he is for eight hours. He’s seven. MJ will live on forever as the King of Pop. No one really paid attention to Farrah and Ed because everyone knew Farrah was going to die, MJ’s was a shock, and hello, he’s MICHAEL JACKSON!
Yes!! He’s Michael Jackson. He’s an accused Pedophile, he openly confessed to sleeping with boys (who weren’t his sons!!), he’s openly mishandled his children (at least of them anyway by dangling him over the side of a balcony), he claims to have a skin diease, but it can be proved that he doesn’t and it was his own personal Plastic Surgery Fixation that caused it (that skin diease he’s supposed to have appears in patches, it does not appear as a whole.), he has obtained his children by either deceit or bribery as those children do not obviously belong to him (Children are supposed to look like their parents even when he was young do you see any resemblence to Michael Jackson in any of his “kids”, also Half Castes are suppose to at least look a little black, either in shape or skin tone, his “kids” are totally white (They’re not even albino.) So yes he’s Michael Jackson, eternal fool, deceiver, corrupt and possible Child Molester to boot. Not a role model for anyone (except the criminally insane)
Who called him the king of pop. He’s not there are many singers who are a hundred times better. I believe he was was responsible for the name the King of Pop, and also his publicity department played on the title “The King of Pop”, no one ever called him the King of Pop, he was no classic performer, there are many more better performers in Pop History – Jimi Hendrix, The Stones, Elvis, Simon and Garfunkel, The Beatles, Jerry Lee Lewis. They were the real Kings of Pop, Michael Jackson was just a wannabe with a big Publicity machine behind him which shows you that talent means nothing as long as you have a lot of publicity behind you look at them X Factor series of programs (i.e. both the X Factor and the American X Factor)
Actually, I believe it was Elizabeth Taylor, one of his closest friends, that gave him the nickname ‘king of pop’ while announcing him the winner of an awards ceremony…
Tbf, he’s kids dont necessarily have to be ‘half cast’. My best mate mick’s dad is black and shes white like her mum….she just got all the white genes instead of the any black. It’s not set in stone that the kids would HAVE to be half cast…
x
Actually one is acceptable, but for all three to be white. Sorry!! It just doesn’t work out that way. The dominant gene for Jackson would be black (since both his parents were black) he would have three children carrying the (for him but recessive for whites) dominant black gene and the recessive white gene. Therefore at least one kid might come up white, but there would at least be some small trace of black heritage. There is none, also the kids look nothing like Jackson, therefore they are not his kids.
fair point. But the world works in mysterious ways. Maybe it was selected that way. Maybe the mother cheated. Maabe it was something else. who knows?
x
well pplz i think that he MJ maybe weird, ok VERY weird but think about it, HE DIED, NO LIFE, WE WILL NEVER HEAR OF HIS NAME AGAIN, HE WILL NEVER TAKE ANOTHER BREATH. i think ppl need to cut him some slack. plus he wasn’t half bad of a singer.
My thoughts and sympathy go out to families and friends of Farrah, Ed, and Michael.
As to all the allegations about MJ — If you weren’t there, how can you be sure that anything happened? The ONE truth to MJ is that he died on June 25, 2009.
Farrah? — I do feel for her family; the “big C” is not easy to deal with.
Ed? — May have worked himself into the ground. No one really knows how much time he donated to charity functions [yes, other than MDA].
David — farewell, grasshopper.
May they all find peace in whatever hereafter they went to.
Although I didn’t really like Michael Jacksons music, I really do respect him for everything he acheived in his life, and do R.I.P.
You will be missed, MJ.
you know what? im pretty god damn tired of people focusing on all the bad things a person does in their life!!! people should just focus on the good things MJ did. he will never be forgoten because of the mark he’s made in not only pop history but human history.

“… im pretty god damn tired of people focusing on all the bad things a person does in their life!!! people should just focus on the good things MJ did. he will never be forgoten because of the mark he’s made …”
Amen, Kate…
thats why I made the comments I did a few days ago about my neighbors encounters with MJ as a kid. He actually was an extremely sweet strange gentle vulnerable child at age 7. He wasn’t like other kids. I’m amazed that he grew up to accomplish what he did. Such
people can be horribly misunderstood bacause of their anomalous
behavior starting in childhood. Add to that the abuse, the autoimmune disorder…usually a recipe for disaster.
Instead, we got almost 40 years of his talent instead of none.
I wasn’t a fan of his stuff but he obviously struck a huge nerve with many others. I choose to respect that part of it. This site is a place where we can all air our obviously mixed feelings.
However, these threads have a flaw. Those who read the first page or so, and never see the rebuttals of foolish or meanspirited posts, and just start up the nastiness again, get rebutted again…and on it goes…Is there an Old Threads home some of these can be retired to at some point? (Once enough posters have gotten everything out of their system?) Rezpekfully, BGC
And RIP to all the lost talented people (David, Farrah, Billy, Ed, etc) who passed these last few weeks. Hope they have their own Rainbow Bridge to sing & dance & play upon.
Wow this has certainly caused a lot of drama.
Sad about Farrah. Cancer is a terrible illness which nobody deserves. At least she is no longer in pain.
I am British and therefore unaware of to who the man on the bottom is. I understand he is really only famous in America. Well respect to his family anyway.
Michael Jackson. We all have our opinions about him, particularly regarding whether he did “it” or not. Even if I believe he did do it…do I think he deserves to die?
Of course not. Nobody deserves to die.
You cannot deny that he was a singer who had a massive impact on many people. Personally I feel that he stopped making good music 20 years ago (with the odd good song since). But to other people, his most devoted fans, this is a big deal for them. Just like it was with Elvis, just like it was with John Lennon.
If one of my favourite singers/actors died, I would be pretty sad too, regardless of the fact that I will probably never meet them.
It’s unfair to talk down to anyone who is sad about his death. Nobody should me made to feel guilty about grieving. Even if they don’t know the person.
As a fellow Brit, I don’t know who the guy in the lower pic is either, but it’s bad news for his family.
I was sad when Freddy Mercury died back in 1991 because he headed up my favourite group, but hey I got over it, and it was never like I’d met the guy.
Cancer is a bad one to die from, I wouldn’t wish that on anyone. It’s a long lingering death campared with Michael Jackson’s death which seems to me to have been quick. I’ve had several members of my family die from Cancer. It isn’t a good death, so I feel for Farrah’s family.
At least MJ’s death, as I say, SEEMS to have been quick but I only now what everyone else knows from the media. Which isn’t much at the moment.
R.I.P. all of them. Icons of America, are now gone… And don’t forget about poor Billy Mays who passed away today. Sometimes this world is just so unfair. These icons never did anything to die so young. It is truly sad. R.I.P. all of you, you will never be forgotten.
wait, its ed mcmahon…my bad. you still should have got a better picture. if you don’t put what it is it looks like your talking about carson. and billy mayes should still be there
Ok, I’m going to admit that I thought he was a freak.But that was when I was young.I regret saying all those things now.I only saw Michael for his talent only and I think you guys should too.R.I.P to Ed,Farrah,Michael, and Billy.
Ok, I gave up reading cuz the posts are just a mix of MJ-rants It may not be polite to speak bad of the dead but the “victims” would probably no wanna be rememberd as “victims” for the rest of there lifes, ether they were raped and need to get help… then they can afford it or its a lye, wich means the parents are lying, then ther gonna need help to haldel munchausen by proxy…
Im just hoping the next one who post sees this:
Who are the other two?
Say what you will, there will never be another dancer with such grace, style, and precision as Michael. Nor music that sets my feet dancing as his does… and always will.
R.I.P.
Bless you for not saying “First”.
Exactly.
First!
-1000 points for RUINING THE MOMENT!!!
No…
-INFINITY POINTS!!!! Stupid Clint.
…wow…did you just type that all into here? You must have freakin’ sore fingers! Good job, though! Totally overshot my comment. And Clint’s up there.
No, it’s one of the many joys of copy/paste and Wikipedia.
And, yes, I did do search douches on Wikipedia just for this moment.
Cool!
Who? Michael? Well, now he sure is!
Copy/pasta ruins EVERYTHING.
Copy/pasta? it would be sooo much easier *mu..cheesier?* to make spaghetti that way.
I lol’ed
i think it’s “loll’d”
Seeing that lol isn’t really a word, I’m not sure that its past tense has a proper spelling. Then again, here, I’m not sure ANYTHING has a proper spelling.
“here, I’m not sure ANYTHING has a proper spelling” – You’re thinking specifically of LOLcat sites there,
I’m not sure LOL has actually been recognised as a word by any of the major dictionaries, but I’d suggest that, used as a verb, it should form tenses etc the same way as laugh does.
Lol is a word, you know there are words OUTSIDE the English language, don’t you?
Lol is a word _in_ the English language. And it’s our fault. Bloody internet generation, I remember when we were too busy finding BBS telephone numbers to invent new words…
It is in Dutch, actually… It means ‘fun’.
Rest in peace, all of the above shown people.
Dank U.
more like “fail’d”
Copy/pasta. It will be my goal to use that phrase in at least four conversations this week.
I think that it will be easy,
WOW! I did not know that! Thank you for sharing.
You learn something new every day.
What on earth is this diatribe in here? I thought this was supposed to be a tribute to those who have passed. Not a lesson from a frustrated doctor who must not have passed his licensure tests.
You ******* ***** who has no heart at all! This isnt a LOL!! i truly despise you, Clint. You obviousley have no friends and no heart. ******* ***** who has no ******* life!!!!! I don’t curse that much, but THIS was called for!
Yeah this week is full of suck. Here’s hoping that next week is better.
We’ve lost three. It’s always threes. We’re done for now.
And on my birthday, too.
so…..please tell me that wasn’t a birthday wish gone awry. *cries*
Please don’t tell me it was a birthday wish come true…
4. don’t forget the grasshopper.
weve lost four not three 4 bc billy mays dies sunday you kno the screaming oxycleaan guy?*cries*
And it’s only Thursday.
last sunday he died
Agreed…R.I.P. I hope all their families find comfort and peace, Godspeed.
yeah great ROFL
brilliant

Now that I have your attention,I’d like to set some facts straight about MJ.
Q:Did he touch those kids?
A:Nope.Because of drug use and depression in his early life,he tried to be more happy and giving.He was a millionare,so he took LOTS of his money and showed some kids a fun time,with no sex.One kid got greedy and thought that he would sue MJ for assloads of money.This only made him back to being depressed even though he won the case since the kid had no evidence,a shaky story with no wttnesses AND MJ’s family and freidns were asked about him.He was no pedo.
Q:Did he bleach his skin?
A:Yes and no.He suffers from Vitiligo,a disease that turns black people white,although it covered most of his body it left ugly patches.He bleached those since vitiligo cannot be reversed.
Yeah, all that is ok. You left out the fact that the boys father, Evan Chandler, was tape-recorded saying amongst other things, “If I go through with this, I win big-time. There’s no way I lose. I will get everything I want and they will be destroyed forever…Michael’s career will be over”. The boys own mother didn’t even believe his story. Michael was no pedophile. He was simply trying to live out his childhood that he never had as a child. I was perfectly ok with that until he had children (my heart goes out to them by the way). It’s too bad he will probably be remembered for this sick lie and not for the decent man and musical genius he truly was.
RIP… all contributed so much to this world.
Awwwe. We lost a child molester. Whatever will we do now? The entertainment world will surely come to an end.
But on a brighter note- he did pay the families well for the use of their children. So I guess that nullifies what he did and now only his music is of concern.
I hope Realist dies.
I will someday. And none of you will even know when it happens. You will someday. And none of MJs family will jump online to “respect” you. Simply because they do not know you.
Just as you do not know MJ or his family. Therefore you have lost nothing today.
No more playin’ with GameBoys, if you know what I mean.
I consider Michael Jackson’s death to be a mercy. A mercy for the injured families who now know he can never hurt them again, and also for the sad, confused man who was so far from reality he barely knew what it looked like.
“So he bleached his skin.”
No, he didn’t.
http://www.michaelandvitiligo.com/
The more you know~~~
oh. Proven wrong. Apologies x
either way, that would be something that’d wouldve added to the self conscienceness, thus adding to the mental unstablity x
Apology accepted
There’s no doubt in my mind that Vitiligo contributed to his personal problems. I’ve seen the effects for myself, which is pretty much why I get so annoyed that the whole “bleached his skin” nonsence is so often treated as fact. Sorry if I sounded annoyed with you – you didn’t know.
This might make me sound dumb but I had absolutely no idea it existed, let alone he had it.
but no, it’s cool =) I didnt think you were annoyed or anything ’cause of the ~~~ adds a friendly feel :L
xx
So much for not believing every thing you read or see on television…
wel lyou believed he bleached right? you musta seen that on tv…
I’ve never seen a case of vitiligo where the pigmentation is so EVEN. I’ve always seen patchiness and spottiness. ALWAYS.
You don’t see it on MJ because of how thick his face makeup is because of it. Towards the end it was no longer a makeup issue because vitiligo was total.
spinni is right. My dad just told me he had a black friend that got vitiligo and hes almost entirely white now. not much patchiness yet
Well he actually did bleach his skin a little bit to hid the spottiness. But his skin was not completely bleached.
yeah thats kinda what we’re tryin to get at =)
:S even though it doesnt matter. he’s dead now. And e’ll forever be remembered as the king of pop, like elvis is remembered as being the king or…everything :L (of peanut butter jelly time!)
Actually…he kinda has a point. That the man made good music is no excuse for what he (allegedly, but probably) did.
keeping in mind that who we are today is not the product of our past achievements, mj is most certainly better (for the rest of us) in his final resting state than he was in the past 15 years.
he USED TO BE the greatest pop artist in the world. in the 10 years prior to death, he was a washed up, baby shaking, child molesting weirdo.
someone tell madonna to retire. and brett favre.
I just don’t see why people still claim he molested children. If my memory serves me right he was proven innocent and the whole lawsuit thingy was just works of some greedy people who did not care what it would do to Jackson.
He just happened to live in his own little world and see himself as a child and liked to play with kids(in a way that does not include anything sexual) due to his love for them and love for the innocence of the children.
He might have been something that normal people would call a freak but he wasn’t a monster.
R.I.P. King of Pop

….He just happened to live in his own little world and see himself as a child and liked to play with kids(in a way that does not include anything sexual) due to his love for them and love for the innocence of the children…….
I know one of his childhood friends and she attested to his having this personality as a pre-adolescent. He used to hide out at her
home, bruised and distraught. She would take him hunting for insects and tree-climbing. He adored animals.
He used to annoy me…now I feel sadness for him, hope he’s in a less hurting place.
Please, do not speak ill of the dead. Focus on the music career, if you will.
Just because someone’s dead doesn’t mean they can’t be criticized. I have a huge problem with you saying “he’s dead, so uh, stop claiming he molested kids, it’s no longer an issue.” Yeah, it is an issue, and if those children really were molested, it’ll continue to be an issue for the rest of their lives.
His music career was unbelievable, of course, but that doesn’t give him a free ride. Don’t trivialize his crimes just because of his talent.
rip, friends.
An awful day.
R.I.P.
any @$$#013 who has the nerve to “first” this post ought to be drawn and quartered, shot, and given to Cheney as a plaything…
May they all rest in eternal peace, find nirvana, or achieve the greatness to which they subscribe…
*cries shamelessly*
*holds up her glass of soda* Here! Here!
*drinks a toast to three people who left their mark in this world*
*waddles in, tears streaming down face*
a toast! to remembering 3 beautiful people.
it’s so nice for them to post this.
4, tofu. don’t forget the grasshopper you had for breakfast.
*clink*
*drinks*
Nothing says remembering the dead like threatening to kill people…
hey i never said anything about killing anyone… all those *ahem* injuries i mentioned are survivable… way to go on the mis-read toothless…
Byebye… May the world be a better place without you.
That’s cruel.
but unfortunately true.
Cold as cold can be, Noxx.
ok first of all, michael was a LEGEND! He will always be remembered! How dare you insult these people, who may I remind you DIED. I bet you sure wouldn’t like it if you died and ppl said that about you. I KNOW the world would be a better place with out ppl like YOU!
i wouldn’t care because i didn’t know them and even if i did, I’M DEAD SO WHAT CAN I DO lol idiot.
i read about this crap this morning and i was like ‘michael jackson died. lol’
Me, too. Lol!
Finally- Someone who realizes that none of these people should be defined by their job, but by their actions in life. Oh how quickly we forget the awful things people do and idolize mere humans.
Who’s speaking ill? Honesty is never a lie. Right is never wrong. I simply don’t idolize people who are just that. Only humans.
When did lieing about people become a social grace? I did not know them. They did nothing for my life… or yours.
I hope people are honest about me before AND after I die. Good or bad.
Neither is honesty considered always polite. There are times when refraining from speaking unpleasant truths is the gracious and kind thing to do. No one is asking that you lie, simply that you restrain yourself from being unpleasant.
Sure they were merely people but you want to know something? These people contributed far more to this world than you who sit at your computer instigating sick lies about them. Michael Jackson gave more back to this world than you ever did. Sure the man was out of touch with reality but since when was that a bad thing? Some of the happiest people on the planet are completely insane. I pray that all 3 of these people, for their wonderful deeds, rest in eternal peace.
yes bye you fckuing perv now go to hell. let the kids have a better life
Shut up, angie.
Noxx, just because YOU didnt like MJ, doesnt mean the rest of the world didnt like him!!you’re cold. You have no heart whatsoever alongwith the a$$h0le who decided to put “first!” on this. This isnt a LOL, its a “farewell card”.
It’s weird that they really do seem to come in 3′s.
Yes they do…that’s because we’re all connected and connections are clumpy and not evenly distributed….otherwise one celeb would die every 446.8 hours like clockwork…….this rule often applies to airplane crashes too.
All have had a rough few years – I sincerely hope they have finally found peace. I won’t say I always agreed with MJs actions or beliefs (at all!), or that I always loved his music, but he did influence music hugely – from the Jackson 5 to Thriller…
The end of an era.
or 7s. Hopefully 4 more won’t die.
I was a huge fan of MJ. I’ll be singing Billie Jean in his honor.
R.I.P
It’s really sad. All three were such influential people in their own medium. They will be missed greatly by the world over. RIP
Damn. I am suprisingly moved by Michael’s passing. He was young. And farrah and ed. Truly a sad time….
RIP All three.
As far as MJ goes, nobody should be saying “Thank god he is dead.” You have no proof that he ever did anything. People get accused of stuff that they did not do all the time. I am not saying he didn’t do it, I am just saying that none of us knows either way.
All three will be greatly missed
Thank you gir!
I sincerely hope nobody is saying that. Frankly, right now it doesn’t matter whether he did it or not. What matters is that an American icon has died, surprisingly young.
You mean, except the poor innocent little kids he raped.
Yes, THANK GOD
oh? you have proof that this happened?!
And you have no proof that it didn’t.
Why would an innocent man give thousands of dollars to a person if they accused him of rape? Would you?
If I were rich and it would make them shut up? You betcha I would. What kind of parents chooses money over justice anyhow? If he was really guilty wouldn’t the parents want justice instead? IF he was in fact guilty, those parents basically slapped a price sticker on their kids.
so you are above the law as “innocent until proven guilty” doesn’t count for you.
what an honor to be in presence of such a wise being…
You need to show a little class..or is it that you have none? You have NO PROOF whatsoever as to what the man did in his private life, good or bad.
Rest In Peace– Michael Jackson, Farrah Fawcett, and Ed MacMahon… you all will be missed.
Most of this just proves that there are three things that you shouldn’t talk about in public. Religion, politics, and Michael Jackson.
I think that he made some brilliant music. RIP
And RIP Farrah! Thank you!
yeah, and OJ Simpson didn’t kill his ex and ron goldman.
GET A GRIP, an innocent person DOESN’T pay millions of dollars to people to keep quiet.
OJ didn’t kill his wife. All the evidence leads to that a drug deal went bad. And Michael Jackson is innocent. The people who took him to court were claiming it and trying to take money from an innocent man. May all Three of them rest in peace, and lets hope they are in a better place.
Wrong. OJ was the murderer. He was effectively found guilty in the civil trial, though he couldn’t get jail time for it due to the outcome of the murder trial. Then there are the multiple occasions on which OJ himself admitted it to various people.
::PFFH:: Have you ever seen a little film called, “Juror No. 5″?
Guilty as hell.
“When she whines about the pesky inconveniences of jury duty, Deena Mullen is strikingly unaffecting. But when she talks about the specifics of the O.J. Simpson case, and the monstrous brutality of the murders of Nicole Brown Simpson and Ronald Goldman, she is powerfully compelling, and so is the film made about her.
Mullen thinks Simpson is guilty as hell, and her account and insights should give even Simpson’s few supporters second thoughts.”
Really? I know for damn sure that in his place, if I HAD the money, I would pay to keep them off my case. Especially in something so high profile that a fair trial could have been a laugh. Prison vs. giving up money that I have? And the amount was never declared, it was rumored.
RIP to all three, it amazed me how touched I was, especially by MJ’s death.
Uh he did dangle his kid over a balcony though…
Yes! Someone who is FINALLY understanding! *virtual high five for understandment!* I’ll miss MJ, even tho I never met him… D’:
R.I.P, King of Pop, Michael Jackson.
*hugs* Thank you for saying that.
Two rather larger than I had realised parts of my childhood gone… Weird how things you hadn’t thought about in year suddenly come back to you. Like remembering sitting up with mum, watching Charlie’s Angels. Or being 7 or 8 years old, trying to get some sleep on a summernight, while the neighbours across the street played “Beat It” really loud on their stereo…
R.I.P.
My friends and I spent many a slumber party attempting the moonwalk. It’s very sad.
I sang “Thriller” over and over but never knew anything but the chorus. Thus, I repeated it while shambling around pretending to be a zombie.
Miss you all, R.I.P.
First
Good riddance, in regard to the top half of the picture.
Wow, you have no respect do you? Believe it or not, somebody actually BELIEVED in these people, hell, even loved them. You are a horrible person to say that the world is better off with the top two. You, sir, make me sick.
Loke, have you no heart? Everyone on this planet is the son or daughter of someone. I don’t know about FF’s mom, I realatively sure EM’s mom has passed. But MJ’s mom is still alive and she has to be heart broken right now. Burying a child is NEVER easy on a mom or dad. Shame on you for being so cruel!
I’m willing to bet you’d be upset if someone you loved passed on, especially if they made a comment like what you said.
Speaking from experience, you couldn’t possibly be more right. I feel bad for the entire Jackson and Fawcett family right now. Michael may have been a bit screwed up, but he had people that loved him. And the death of any human being is tragic.
I’m not sure about Farrah Fawcett’s mother, but I know her father is still alive, and this is unfortunately, the second child he has lost to cancer.
Dangit c’mon, just yesterday everyone hated the guy!
now because he’s dead we gotta turn a blind eye to his chrnic stupidity and possible pederasty?
What’s all this “respect the dead” stuff. The dead don’t need our respect, they’ll never know and MJ’s family are to greived to care what anyone else says. Do we say nice things about hitler? he’s dead?
sure mj’s no hitler but he certainly wasnt a sane person, not for 10 years at least.
I did not think it would be possible to Godwin this thread.
Well done!
D00D, you stole Bye Bye’s bit!
For those of us who only speak English – What the hell is to Godwin???
“Godwin’s Law is a natural law of Usenet named after Mike Godwin (godwin@eff.org) concerning Usenet “discussions”. It reads, according to the Jargon File:
As a Usenet discussion grows longer, the probability of a comparison involving Nazis or Hitler approaches one.”
“possible pederasty?” – so what do you want to say? you are possibly a murderer, and i am possibly a bank robber, who knows….
he was a great entertainer and made many of us happy so that’s a reason to be sad.
plus you don’t say so much bad things about mass murderers called presidents, do you?
Only one way to fine out, TO THE BAT MOBILE!
RIP.
You all have done so much for us.
You will be missed deeply.
michael jackson special on MTV right now..
Whats the difference between sir Alex ferguson and Michael Jackson?
Alex Ferguson will be playing giggs in August.
Yeah, I would surely be p***ed off and want the money for my tickets back.
Although … I guess it’s a good excuse not to show up for the concert.
i will finally learn thriller in MJ’s honor
Whats the difference between Michael jackson and Sir alex ferguson?
ALex ferguson wil be playing giggs in August
Damn, I only knew about M.J.. Now I’m sad about Farrah too. Who’s the third one, btw? Being French, I’ve never seen that face :/
Ed McMahon. He was a sidekick on the Tonight Show with Johnny Carson. Very funny man.
ROFLCOPTER so true
Michael Jackson’s body is being melted down and made into toys. So children can play with him for a change
Neil Armstrong, back to being the worlds number one moonwalker.
Weather channels are reporting high winds throughout the world!
Aparently it is being put down to all young boys breathing a sigh of relief
I lol’d a little.
Not cool.
not at any time
I don’t believe that….if you cannot give respect to what he did…than you, Bye Bye, are the one with issues.
Why do those of us who couldn’t care less about dead child molesters the ones with issues. If you ever have a child of yours molested (and I hope you don’t) you would not care any more for them than they did for you.
The world is better off. His family won’t shed one tear when ANY of us die. Not one person on this thread actually knew him or his family. People die every day and none of you cares. Why him? Why?
You can still buy his music. You have lost NOTHING.
If you don’t care, then why are you here posting?
just wanted to see how many people think they are actually friends with him.
… and cuz I was a bit bored!
Realist, if you ever are acquitted of a crime, it will give me great pleasure to tell the world for the rest of your life that you’re actually guilty.
What do you mean … “buy” music? Don’t get that.
LMFAO
What buy music??? You mean I have free download accounts and access to Torrent Clients for nothing. Damm!!
I lol’ed a lot.
Not bad. But are they original?
WIN!
Though kids wouldn’t be happy ‘coz the King of Pop can now haunt them anytime, anywhere… even when they’re taking a bath. No place will be safe for little boys everywhere…
Too many deaths… R.I.P
MJ’s death is kind of a shock. He was only 50 and he died of cardiac arrest. I hadn’t even heard about Ed McMahon!
Rest in peace.
As to the ones posting crap here… Considering that you’re posting insults about someone who just died, maybe when you die people who know you will do the same. Seems likely, since you’ve proven what a$$holes you are.
It won’t matter.
We won’t care.
We’ll be dead.
agreed. when we’re dead we don’t care what people say because we won’t be around to hear it
You might not hear it, but your family might. Even if you didn’t care about him, three kids lost the only parent they knew. Have a little respect for them.
No kidding. You guys are total jerks.
I’m overjoyed for them.
They might get a sane person to bring them up now.
Get real, bye.
Get real about what?
When you die that’s it, no more, no hearing anything, no worrying.
That’s real.
Oh, you said bye, are you still here?
I think he may be worried about be becoming a post-modernist.
Can you become a modern post-it?
I think apple has an app for that already.
Bye Bye, I may not know you, but for sure, you are one disrespectful and thoughtless human. Maybe these comments are an outlet for you for various reasons, such as your lack or morals and maturity of emotions, but people actually read these and make sense of them.
I don’t know what you are, maybe Satanist or Atheist.
But for every person who has a religion that believes that “do unto others as you would like them to do to you” that’s reading this, I need you to request tha “bye bye” gets what he negatively deserves.
And now, Bye Bye, I suppose you’ll respond to this with some kind of smart aleck remark, or ignore this statement out of pure ignorance? Or maybe you’ll realize that people aren’t just toys in this world.
Or you can just smirk and close your web browser.
Damn, we come here for laughs, look at this tribute; say hey thats not humor. So we get into the serious mode and then we see a sadistic lunatic disrespecting this tribute. Well, I’m done. I’m off to go have a happy life unlike what you deserve. Maybe when you change you’ll deserve happiness.
I’m totally behind you, Justice. I admit I joked about MJ a few times, but I hope the jokes will die with him. The music is all that needs to be remembered.
Yay for… forgetting history?
I don’t get it. Why are we respecting someone now that he’s dead when while he was alive he was mostly at best a freak and at worst a monster? Shouldn’t we tell people we respect them while they’re still living?
Why do we wait until they are dead to forgive them and wipe away their transgressions?
It’s done out of respect for the survivors, not the person who died.
And, Justice, please don’t assume Bye is an atheist. Most of us are decent people. Jerks can be found in all creeds!
Wait… So the family members never get factored in so long as the guy is a live?
This explains everything!
(Goes off to kill a family member.)
I could have said any other religion. Sorry for any misunderstandings.
“Why are we respecting someone now that he’s dead when while he was alive he was mostly at best a freak and at worst a monster?”
Good points. I agree. What is with the sacredness of death? Is it some sort of primitive, hushed, whistle-past-the-cemetery-type of behavior? Why do we have to forget what harm someone caused in life, simply because they’re dead now? Is being dead enough “punishment”? Is that it?
Hey- don’t assume that all atheists are jerks like bye bye. That’s totally unfair. A belief in god doen’t mean people are always or (even ever) polite, well behaved or considerate of the feelings of others. Neither does a lack of belief in god prevent a person from being polite, well behaved and considerate of the feelings of others.
@ Justice, what do you mean “maybe Satanist or Atheist.” Just because people are Atheists doesn’t mean they have no sense of moral values, or are terrible people. It is even possible, bet you didn’t think about that, huh, that Bye Bye is a *gasp* Christian! But enough of that.
I think it’s sad these people died. You can say what you want, but MJ was a gifted musician, even if he did bad things. And Farah Fawcett was indeed a gorgeous woman. And I’m sorry to say, but I never before heard of mr MacMahon (European here)
Umm, not trying to help their case here, but really Michael Jackson’s family is probably not roaming this forum right now looking for what ByeBye is saying about him either. There’s not really any point in chastising him.
sure there is… gives us pleasure
well crap! king of pop dead… so sorry
Tonight I shall honor our fallen musician by playing one of his songs in Guitar Hero and another (albeit a cover) in Rock Band.
Good night sweet king of pop.
That’s EXACTLY what I just did! LOL! I didn’t read this comment before I posted mine! Gonna miss him, though. Do you know that he was actually going to have a revival concert starting July 13th? He might’ve gone the way of Britney Spears and come back. Who knows?
are we blaming it on the boogie?
did they perform CPR? or did they try ABC?
so much potential…
Everybody dies sooner or later, it’s the only true certainty in life. MJ was lucky to have had a good, successful life (for the most part)
You forgot about taxes.
RIP will all be greatly missed
God damn, he died so friggin’ young… :/
He died frigging the young?
Was that what brought on the heart attack?
Heheh, I like evil.
no. It was brought by the idiots of the world who are like you…at least he had a heart.
Oh right. So I caused MJs death?
I better turn myself in to the proper authourities then.
Seeing as you seem to be the authourity of this blog do you want to handcuff me?
Wait, isn’t that how Padme died in the last Star Wars prequel?
Wasn’t his heart also subject to plastic surgery sometime?
R.I.P All of them. Its sad Michael Jackson died some hours ago
They all did so much good. Bless them all.
It used to be considered rude, in poor taste and possibly bad luck to speak ill of the dead. It’s interesting to see how far our society has declined.
It used to be considered blasphemous to say the world was not flat.
The world has moved on.
Deal with it.
I wasn’t speaking of science but instead of decency and respect. THank you for proving my point.
What point?
That society is continually declining in respect for people, living or dead.
Where are your facts to back up this statement?
Do you have research and figures to prove that it is true?
Every day I see people respecting others who deserve their respect.
Just because someone sang doesn’t mean they deserve respect.
Why can’t you and the rest who make snide comments just let other people gather and mourn? I don’t what in the world happened with MJ the later years of his life, but I am mourning the incredibly talented young man he was. I was surprised do feel as I do. I guess I was mourning the kid all through the last decade or more, but today the loss is clear.
Really, try to compartmentalize this a minute and go to youtube and look up “Who’s Loving You” videos or the Motown 25th Anniversary special. That’s the guy I’m mourning today.
Or maybe Bye Bye just enjoys being snide and thoughtless and rude. Please go away now and find something positive to contribute.
Simple, as robot chicken proved, the real Michael Jackson was kidnapped by Aliens years ago. The guy who died was the evil replacement meant to take over the world… Some how.
See? He’s celebrating Earths victory against yet another alien invasion.
GO EARTH WOOOT!!1
Robot Chicken? You are comparing a cartoon to life?!
Lay off the vanilla extract!
Didn’t one of your minions do that with Thumper?
Or was it you, I don’t remember, there are too many posts!
Awww, but make my poop smell like a bakery!
But ‘it’..
OMG! Really? How can you mourn what you did not loose? Did you know him? Did you have coffee together once a month? Did your memories of hearing his music on the radio dissappear this afternoon?
You have lost nothing. Why are all these people going into meltdown? His cd is still in the store. His videos are still on YouTube. You still have all you ever had of him.
Ahh, I was right. The primitive “bad luck” reason. Still exists. How superstitious some people still are.
Hey, if we’re saying good things about them…unlike SOME people…it should be okay. I actually am being respectful of MJ. He just had a big meltdown. There WAS the possibility of a comeback, because he had, and STILL HAS fans.
thank God Michael id gone, I mean I’m sad a fellow human being is gone but now little boys are safe again.
How dare you say that. Michael was a hero to many people and Farrah inspired many people to follow their dreams.
He probably dare because he doesn’t have to have the same beliefs as you.
Nothin’ to do with beliefs, Jackson was a pedophile, pure and simple.
He may of once been nice, and most people were holdin’ out hope that he’d get his act together. It’s why people are attacking you over the jokes.
Personally I’m just to damn young to care about the guy, other than in the broad “all man are brothers… for whom the bell tolls” sorta way, which is why I’m just screwing with ya for the fun of it.
I haven’t had anyone screw with me for the fun of it since I got married.
Depending on the version of screw you’re usin’, your either a very lucky or very frustrated man.
I wish I knew, I really do.
That you are too young can be clearly seen from your posts… Maybe you’ll grow sense, when you grow up.
Point of fact, if my children had been touched, no money on Earth would have stopped me from tearing everything from under him and then either having him jailed or killing him with my bare hands.
Now you have to wonder, if you are innocent, which is better, just shutting them up or dragging the case on and on and on and on. Obviously nothing happened because they just put a price tag on their kids.
Mill that around for a while.
Hmmm, I notice you can afford a computer…
One can get a ‘puter for $249, new, these days. Fifty bucks used. What’s yer point?
Hmmm, I notice you take fifty bucks for granted…
That’s cuz I use the fifties to wipe my ass when I run out of tens & twenties.
Amen DWN! That was the “proof” I need to believe MJ didn’t molest any kids. I think his behavior was erratic, and he preferred the company of children to adults, but I think that was a non-sexual preference. I think he wanted to be a kid forever. (Hence “Neverland Ranch.”)
too young <—…rip anyhow
When a person goes to a funeral, do they stand up and talk about all the horrible garbage the person did? No, instead they speak of their life and the ways the deceased has blessed others. I find it appalling that a man has died, and people are saying dispicable things of him. Would they go to his funeral and say them? Look his family in the eye and say them? What benefit is there in saying these things? Why not simply say “Rest in Peace” or somesuch? Doesn’t it just make the speaker sound crude or ill mannered?
Would you have gone to Hitler’s funeral and said good things?
Some people would some people wouldn’t.
Not everyone agrees with you.
So you are now comparing MJ to Hitler?
No, but I knew that would be your next comment, thank you, I win a piece of cake I bet with my room mate.
Okay well come on. Mention Hitler in the same sentence with ANYONE and thats the comment that would be made. Poor bet! I think you may have just taken advantage of your roommate…
This excuse of “don’t speak ill of the dead” is ridiculous. Death is a natural thing and we’re all going to experience it and it shouldn’t be a cut off for criticism. You’re basically saying “Get all your insults in while they’re alive” Why? So they can defend themselves or something?
You can’t compare MJ with Hitler. I mean MJ was a much better singer.
And yet another shows no respect for people. MJ and Hitler are two totally different people. MJ didn’t kill millions of Jews, now did he? Show a little respect, man.
No, and Hitler didn’t mess around with young boys or feel so insecure that he needed to change his skin colour.
I was comparing the fact that no everyone would want to say good things about any dead person at a funeral.
Unfortunately your prejudices don’t allow you to see that.
well then – remind me not to invite YOU to any funerals!!
One problem with that argument… Hitler never had a funeral, he died in a ditch, on fire. (Hmmm, I just thought of a good name for a drink.)
actually hitler shot himself in the head by a gun read up on your history
Huh, I thought it was always somewhat debated, either way, I think the dead in a ditch part holds up.
yes he did shoot himself, but his body was burned to prevent it being paraded around like Mussolini’s was.
Actually I believe Hitler took Poison which was first tested on his Dog Blondie (How’s that for an appropriate name for an Pro Aryan’s dog
)
Dammit! I love a parade!
How can he show something he or she doesn’t have?
How do you know that?
Have you met me?
Do you know 100% that I do not respect anything?
And do you get invites to funerals?
Do Hallmark do a card for that?
Observation.
They have been talking with you for the last five minutes.
Again, observation.
Civility.
Are you suggesting Hallmark has sex with cards?!?.
No, the person who said I had no respect only came in for a second and then disappeared.
And I am sure if Hallmark thought they could make money out of it they would have all their staff making sweet love to the cards first thing tomorrow.
Ah, darn, having observation three times in a row would just ruin the comic pacing.
Who says they don’t?
I can see it happening
Yes, though instead of a card it would be a refusal to admit at the funeral door, or being shunned “Oh. Don’t tell HIM that this person died. He might come to the funeral and disgrace the deceased!!”
In this case, the deceased disgraced himself.
Godwin wins again.
I think Thumper said it best: f you can’t say something nice… don’t say nothing at all.
Someone beat you to this below.
Although, isn’t this a double negative?
Are you arguing about the grammar of a talking rabbit?
It’s commonly known as the Golden Rule – Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. IOW – treat others as you would want to be treated.
So surely this should have applied to the person we are all talking about? Yes?
Therefore no messing with children, no changing your race, no dangling babies over balconies, no being a complete nutcase.
Unless of course you want all those done to you too.
You know what, we all know Michael Jackson did those things. There’s a time and a place for that. This isn’t the time. It is the place, but not the time.
no, we don’t. None of us was there. None of the media that informed us was there either. We know nothing. Now, the things he did are only between himself and his Maker. It’s no longer any of our business.
And we don’t know he’s dead because we weren’t there so your comment if moot.
Wait a minute! There was media there when little Blanket was dangled over the edge. And there are plenty of pictures in the media showing his change from black man to white woman.
So because the deceased we are discussing did all these things, it therefore gives you liscence to make fun of him, insult him, etc?
Applying the golden rule to another person without regarding your own behavior is called judgementalism.
No, the right to free speech and opinion gives anyone the right to make fun of anyone. And whether it is an isult or not is a matter of opinion.
And your second sentence makes no sense whatsoever, if you were to follow it to the ultimate then no one could ever speak. Think about it.
Just because you didn’t get it doesn’t mean it doesn’t actually make sense.
Explain it to me then please.
If you expect another person apply the golden rule to themselves, but don’t try to apply it yourself, then you are being judgemental of the other person.
I still don’t get it.
I don’t think that the person who died applied your so-called golden rule. But you are suggesting I don’t apply it to myself so that means I am in the wrong because I don’t think he applied it.
My head hurts.
Dagnabbit. There was a line of logic in there somewhere… I know there was. Where’s my shovel?
WAIT!! I GOT IT!! The golden rule doesnt apply to how others should behave, but to our own behavior.
..Wah?
Let it go, both of you. Seriously, who cares? Yeah it’s a damn shame he’s dead (in my opinion) but not everyone loves everyone else. It happens. All the time.
Arguing over the internet is like racing in the Special Olympics…even if you win, you’re still retarded. (*gasp* “she mentioned retarded people in an almost negative manner!!” …..just something else for lifeless trolls to b!tch about….and GO)
LOL. Nope, not retarded, just bored. Me, that is.
This reminds me of the line in “Waiting.” “You’re the coolest f&$^ing guy at Shenaniganz! That’s like being the smartest kid with Down syndrome!” As a special education teacher, and sister to a woman with Down syndrome, I should be offended, but I laugh every time I even think of this line!
I don’t even get how YOU don’t get it. Think of how you would feel if you were accused of a crime you didn’t commit. How the heck do we know if MJ did what he did or not. He might’ve been crazy, but a lot of great people were thought of as crazy. Charles Darwin, for example. Christopher Columbus, for example. MJ had some great music and THAT’S what’s going to be remembered, NOT what happened at the end of his life.
That’s sort of the point.
Just because he had great music doesn’t mean all the other things should be forgotten.
There is too much of a culture of if you are a celebrity then you get away with whatever you want.
There was no proof!
Darwin had sex with children!?!?
Uh, no, Darwin did NOT have sex with children. I mean that he was considered ‘crazy’ because of his theory. I can understand how you got confused, but that’s not what I meant.
Children are theoretical?!?!?!
You’re confused with Lewis Caroll who was a total pederast
thats completely different, Michael Jackson never claimed the world was entirely different or accuse the church of being liars
Rosebud said:
“Applying the golden rule to another person without regarding your own behavior is called judgementalism.”
Actually, the correct term would be hypocrisy.
Ya know, if I had done harm to children, I would deserve every WORD I got, and be thankful (although how one shows thanks when dead I’m not sure) that was ALL I got.
This is no place for foul language like yours.
hence why i never go to funerals… its called realism try it ppl
Once again, this is not Michael Jackson’s funeral, and his family is nowhere in sight. Do you really think his family is roaming this forum? Don’t worry about what Bye Bye is saying.
Actually it makes the speaker honest and respectable. If you always tell the truth and do whats right; the worst thing people can say is that you were honest.
Why lie about someone after they are dead? It won’t change the facts or make them a better person.
Um, if you think the worst people can say about this honest person is they were honest, you are being quite naive. There is sure to be at least one jerk ready and willing to say crappy things about the honest do-gooder whether they are true or not. Sad but true.
And as for MJ, yes, he was weird and troubled and had issues both mentally/emotionally and with his health. Some of us would prefer to remember him for his good points: his music and generosity to charities. And others seem to prefer harping on about the alleged child molestation. To each his/her own, I suppose.
We’re not here to eulogize anybody . . .
WAIT–! Are we?
All so sad. I give props to the OP for acknowledging Farrah and Ed. May they all rest in peace.
In the words of Thumper, if you can’t say something nice, don’t say nothing at all.
Isn’t that a cartoon?
So we have to obey a cartoon now?
Ah well, I suppose it beats having to obey a fantasy bearded bloke in the sky.
Can it be The Simpsons though? Or South Park?
Just stop, seriously. Do you feel like a better man slamming somebody who recently died? Does it make you feel like the better man? Do you WANT to be looked upon as an ass by the community?
I feel great. Thanks for asking.
How are you?
Where did I slam someone who had just died? I posted a few jokes about someone I had no respect for while he was alive.
Why should that change because he is dead? Are we automatically meant to respect someone when they die?
Where is this community that is looking at my ass by the way?
“as an ass”… witty comebacks about someones grammar only work if they actually made a mistake in the first place.
Humour sometimes replaces the words actually spoken for comic affect.
Anyway you never answered my question to you above. Can you do it?
Wait, one sec, let me track it down.
Uh, I think you got me confused with Casey.
Yeah, I didn’t mean you, I meant SirBaggs whatshisname above you, sorry for the misunderstanding.
Eh, no prob, I’m actually enjoying the little show you and the rest of the guys are putting on.
Good. People need cheering up.
Some are sad for some reason.
Well, Ed Mcmahon did die after all…
I’m not going to fuel the fires of idiocy by giving this a real response. You. Are. A. Jerk.
IT used to be common decency to not say something negative about a dead person because they were no longer alive to defend themselves. And since we are online – the community seeing your ass-i-ness is the world at large. Or at least those with internet connection.
Which is actually less than 1 in every 4 people around the world. Did you know that? Less than 1 quarter of the people in the world have internet access.
And where did it used to be common decency not to say something bad about the dead? Do you have proof or statistics to show this?
I can recall people saying bad things about certain dead people my whole life. Hence the Hitler mention above, which is why it was mentioned, not to compare him to a person.
Oh fuh-cryin’-out-loud. Forget this. Think I’ll stick to the Lolcats forum where people make more freakin’ sense!!!
So you are saying that you cannot answer the question?
Ok. Fine. You win. Happy? You have the right as I decree – to make a complete ass out of yourself as a dead man’s expense. I’m sure it’s in the first amendment somewhere. Kay? There. Sheesh. Life is too freaking short to spend it making fun of people living or dead. Apparently you have hereby proven C.S. Lewis wrong – he stated that all humans have a basic knowledge of good and wrong, of decency and indecency. Thank you.
I was not aware we were having a competition. Do I win a prize then?
I have a knowledge of those things you mentioned, they just mean that I don’t respect certain people who I don’t think deserve it, dead or alive.
And my point is – if you knew the deceased personally and yet did not respect him – would you still go to his funeral, see his family and make jokes? Insults?
You could if he was a stand up comedian…
I think you’re trying to combat internet nonsense with moral prosecution, let me tell ya’ It really doesn’t work that well.
I think moral preposition was the word I meant there… Err, maybe.
Eh, It’s a christian thing, maybe Muslim too.
Now, as a Jew, let me tell ya, we talk crap about every S.O.B, live or dead.
Me not Christian or Muslim. Thankfully. Or Jewish for that matter.
I am Irish though, does that make a difference?
It puts your sobriety in question, but beyond that I couldn’t tell ya.
That could be regarded as a stereotype.
On the internet of all places.
What is the world coming to.
Well I’m part English, part South African, Part Australian, Part Canadian (And don’t even ask how the hell all that came about!!) So you can make all the jokes of my ethnicity you’d like I’ve heard them all before, no matter what RAICE I’m from
(Thanks to Alan Partridge for that joke, but really I’ve heard all the Deeplomatic Eemunity, and Get me Reegs jokes before!!)
wow, that is wierd and cool (not being sarcastic by the way)
Well, Bye bye. I see quite clearly you have no brain and no heart…how the heck are you living? So he screwed up his life by making poor choices. Are you saying YOU never made poor choices in your life? Becasue if you are that’s the biggest load of bull I’ve ever heard of. NO ONE is perfect. Not even (gasp) you!
No, I never said any of those things you mentioned.
Why do you accuse me of saying them?
Also how do you know that I have no brain or heart? Could it not be possible that if someone I respected died then I would be very sad and sorry?
Exactly. And since none of us, I assume, knew MJ personally, then none of us has a right to insult him either. If we can apply that to you, if it is true we can’t say you have no brain or heart, then none of us can say that about any other celebrity, living or dead.
So you can’t insult someone you don’t know personally?
Does that mean I have to take back all those bad things I have said in the past about Bush, Cheney and all the other warmongering murdering bastards around the world?
(Now if we weren’t having enough fun with the MJ ranting I’m sure there’s about to be a lot more!)
Woah, I’ll let you have this one all to yourself.
(slips quietly to the next post.)
Chicken!
Cluck cluck
yawn… obvious troll is obvious
OMG YAY THERE ARE ATHEISTS SOMEWHERE HERE… thank god
Lol oxymoron,
Rest In Peace
(Quietly Slips in.)
Hey, sorry, just escaping another post.
How come everyone is forgetting about David Carradine? MJ is #4 not 3.. So he’s the start of the next 3 not the end of the last…
There are approx 30,000 people who have died around the world since MJ so he was actually the start of that.
Don’t forget about all of them.
i cant believe it
i feel so sorry for all of their families
i mean really look at mj
he has three kids and now that he is dead…..
pray for all their families
they deserve it
seriously
what if i said praying is useless….. what they really want is money
nobody cares what you have to say about prayer.
In the words of the Cyberleader Krang in the Tenth Planet (Doctor Who – #1 Played by William Hartnell) – “There are people dying all over your world but you do not care about them”.
exactly
Cause every one just assumed he died “Happy.”
Hey, don’t look at me, I’m pissing on rocks here, I have no idea what the guy was really into.
I had no idea about David Carradine… it has been a bad few weeks – but then do we count Bea Arthur too?
I hadn’t forgotten about David Carradine. RIP Grasshopper.
yeah then billy mays is #2 but i hated him
3 legends passed away in 3 days….terrible week.
Oh, one of those three had already passed away alooong time ago.
umm noo? they all died in like 2 days farrah and michael like yesterday and idk when ed died, but this week.
Iz bein Metaforicalz!
The Michael Jackson that the world loved died a long time ago.
You guys know what I did the moment I heard about MJ? I went over to my Guitar Hero World Tour game and cranked up ‘Beat It’ with the drums. I did it on Expert too and even though I failed, like, twenty times, I kept going and I made it! R.I.P., MJ.
LMFAO! I’m sure his family appreciates that. They’ll call you tomorrow to say thanks.
what and awful 2 days. RIP. i’ll miss them all.
heh, no more Jesus Juice!
rip
Say what you will about Michael’s personal life, but I will remember him for the lasting impression he has made on the musical community. I enjoy many of his songs, and am saddened that he will not get the chance to make his highly anticipated comeback.
While I’m slightly too young to remember Farrah Fawcett or Ed McMahon, I know that they were also people who made great contributions to the entertainment world.
There is no doubt in my mind that all three will be missed greatly.
R.I.P. to the King of Pop, a true Angel and one of the best comedic sidekicks in showbusiness.
a true angel? great. angels bang children… right.
the commas indicated the next dead person in line.. angel referring to Miss Fawcett. *though I agree with ya*
Reading comprehension FAIL
still… who cares? tons of people die every day and the only people hwo get press are the “popular” ones. who cares? i’m just glad cause MJ is gone.
but hey, i will listen to Eat It in memory of a good song.
MJ died of aids that he got from molesting little aids patient children. Im sure the catholic church will put in a nice bid on neverland.
aw yay! Obvious Troll made it to this thread as well. Good to see you ;o)
And you will most likely live a miserable life until you realize how immature you are.
…really? Who told you that? Your mama?
ZOMG ROFLOL so true… disturbing but true…
It’s funny. Everyone is so sensitive about saying bad things about Michael Jackson after he’s dead, but still people can badmouth the Catholic church, which over 1 billion people in the world adhere to dearly, and even people in this forum may as well, and it’s suddenly ok. Talk about double standards.
I’m glad that LOLcelebs knows when to be serious and when not to be serious. Apparently some LOSERS don’t know that. I think MJ’s going to come back as a zombie tonight and rip all these flamers’ heads off!
God i hope so.
R.I.P. all of you.
We could make this into a sick joke if we wanted.
“Last night Ed McMan died, This afternoon Farrah Faucet died.. And after that, Michael Jackson died.. You know what they say, Third time’s the charm!”
We could, but it wouldn’t be funny.
lol
Heaven just got 3 great angels… R.I.P guys…
i can’t help but compare micheal jackson to oscar wilde one they both died young two they both had trails oscar’s was a crock meanwhile micheal who i believe suffered peter pan syndrome and wanted to relive his childhood. and three they both influenced alot of people so rip micheal, farrah your and angel and ed you entertained us and now your up in heaven
And another difference Oscar Wilde was talented. MJ just had better publicity.
Bon voyage, Ed, Farrah, and Michael.
You will be missed.
Man I love you “Bye Bye” is manipulating all of you. Keep it up man.
But remember mate, Theres no proof that MJ did any of the aforementioned. The only proof we have is that he dangled a baby from a window and was maybe a little eccentric. We have all seen visual evidence of this. But the rest is speculation. So dont believe everythign you read.
Anyways have fun. Keep reving them up so we can both laugh at their weak comebacks.
Oh there’s good proof, JM’s lawyer was just gooder… er
er.
ya don’t believe everything u read… *COUGH* THE BIBLE *COUGH*
Actually do!! MJ just used his (formerly) vast wealth to buy the best lawyers and to bribe the parents with more money than they could earn in years. No wonder they broke. Besides which those kids aren’t Jacksons, any fool can see that. His “kids” are white, Jackson as everyone is reminding us is supposed to be Black. Therefore how could a Black man produce halfcaste children that look completely white. It’s time at last for the truth to be revealled (Of course it won’t be Jackson’s family are probably having a family barbecue on a fire produced by burning the hidden documents. So we’re now left with people believing that he’s some kind of angel when he is the worst kind of devil.
RIP Michael.
I think those people yelling “freak” are forgetting that he’s been in the spotlight since he was a very young boy, not to mention the abuse that all of his siblings suffered. He didn’t have a life like the rest of us, ever. So yea, he was odd. But he was still a human being. I totally expect to be ridiculed for this, but whatever. The world lost an incredible musician today, and his family and friends, especially his children, lost a huge part of their lives. It’s sad that all people see fit to talk about is what COULD have happened.
I stand by the fact that it was a huge bid for money, made worse by a society that jumps at the chance to scream “guilty” as soon as something is brought to their attention. Anyone hear the phone call between the father of the kid in the 90s and his friend? “Yea, if I ride this out I am set for life” or something. None of us will ever know, I just shrug off the people who think they do.
In other news reports of child molestation dropp 200% today in southern califonia. Poice are startled
Wait, so they how have a child molestation rate of Negative 100%?
aside from MJ who are those n00bs?
Think you mean boobs, yauza!
umm farrah fawcett, if that how u spell it? and ed mcmahon. he was a comedian if u would call it that, on the tonight show with whats his name…*cant think of it* and farrah was an actress who has been struggling with cancer. does that help???
I THOUGHT OF IT johnny carson
You are correct sir!
is michael jackson a zombie yet ??
HE WASN’T ALREADY?!?!?
Wasn’t MJ just about to go on tour? That sucks.
$5 says Patrick Swayze’s next
pfft i think tom cruise
*gasp*
Can you see the future or something??????? You say Patrick Swayze was gonna be next.
Bingo- Swayze’s gone. God rest his soul…
But seriously. That’s spooky! Nearly more spooky then what happened to one of my friends. She watched his film Ghost the night before he died. At the end of the film, she had a really bad feeling that he was going to die very soon. Next day- Swayze’s kicked the bucket!
So- you made a bet on Swayze being next and it came true. This world gets spookier and spookier every day…
Rosebud needs to stop. you are failing and its not funny anymore. bye bye may have different opinions but he is kicking your ass.
This was a lousy day, but we’ll all get over this one way or another. RIP MJ, FF and EMcM. All three of you had a lot of talent, and all three of you went too soon.
As far as Patrick Swayze being next, I sure hope to god not. Anyone dying sucks, just wait till someone close to you kicks the bucket, its going to suck for you.
you no what i calls it….. i calls it population control
No that is when I am allowed guns outside of the place with squishy walls.
they let u have guns there lol
yes but no shiny things to put in them so it no make big poof
If i was the parent of a child who supposedly got raped by MJ i wouldn’t just let my self get paid off to keep quiet about it, i would fight until he was properly punished, so to be honest i do not believe he ever touched those boy’s in that way.
R.I.P all 3 much missed stars.
R.I.P Michael, Farrah and Ed! May the angels guide you to your dreams and family! Let your worry’s be gone, and happiness overtake your soul. For when others come they can see your smiling faces, and know, they are not alone.
Rest in peace.
RIP Michael
You will be missed.
I am a big fan of michael jackson. I’ve been listening to P.Y.T. ever since i heard he died, rest in peace MJ and Noxx you’re stupid for making fun of these three legends. R.I.P. all 3 of them
All of you fighting over MJ and whoever else. Cut it out. Defending him or not, you all sound like idiots. Putting up with people to rude and disrepsectful makes you look like you just want to have the last word.
My two cents are that I did love Michael. He was inspirational. He had good music and was a legend. To an incredible amount of people.
R.I.P. all three though. They’re in somewhere better now, without cares in the world or whispers behind their back. Or stupid debates on graphjam. <3
Michael being dead now brings a whole new meaning to the “Thriller” video.
Damn … gotta call a plumber. My fawcett is leaking.
wooooooow another bad joke. i think that puts u at -200,010.
goodbye jackson you pervert now let the kids have a normal life, the people on the t.v are not even crying must say something good riddons
Who’s worse: the troll trying to elicit a reaction from MJ fans, or those who waste time fighting them?
Trolls won’t cease to post, and the more emotional you become, the more enjoyment they get from it.
tl;dr- don’t feed the trolls.
A winrar is you.
Did you hear about Michael Jackson’s latest song?
“Don’t let your son go down on me.”
I just bought a new car stereo… When you shout out “Soul”, it plays soul music. When you shout out “Rock”, it plays rock music. Some kids ran in front of my car, and I shouted “fu**ing kids!”, and it played Michael Jackson.
lol
Hold on, there’s more.
How many times does 12 go into 35?
Ask Michael Jackson.
Micheal was 50, and it would be the other way around, moron.
You fail it.
You are right. Here’s another one, just for you.
What do Michael Jackson and PS2 have in common?
Little boys turn them on.
You can stop copy-n-pasting jokes from Google. Contrary to your false impression, you are not, in fact, funny.
Did somebody just say something?
Hmmm … maybe just a fart in the wind.
Obvious troll is obvious.
you actually liked MJ? making me sick…
Alex never alluded to liking MJ, only that Puddi is unfunny.
Plz to explain what’s sickening about liking a talented but troubled musician who had flimsy charges brought against him?
good one
He wasn’t 50 when he was accused of the child molestation.
Recycling Larry the Cable Guy jokes results in epic fail.
I believe you just deflated a troll’s ego. Have a muffin; well done.
I don’t think the troll intentionally used a Larry the Cable Guy joke, s/he was just copy and pasting jokes from a user-submission site s/he found on Google to start a flame war of sorts. Just remember never to feed the trolls, or they win.
woooooooooow that was a pretty bad joke.-10 points. plus hes dead.-100,000 points for bad joke on the dead.
Hee, hee! ; )
BTW, for those of you not familiar with Ed, besides being the spokesperson for American Family Publishing, and Carson’s sidekick, he was also a WWII & and Korean War veteran, a marine aviator (the Korean War, flying an unarmed plane as an artillery spotter – probably more dangerous that his combat piloting in WWII).
http://www.blackfive.net/main/2009/06/col-ed-mcmahon-dies.html#comments
aww poor mj <:( whole well…
I was not a fan of either MJ or FF. I personally find some of the “mourners” who have been on the news to be ridiculous as many probably couldn’t sing half of his popular songs or tell you anything about these lives. But non the less, it is sad for all their families, especially MJ as his was a complete shock. I think, for MJ, this might be better, he didn’t seem to have much peace in his life, and if he did do what people think, he’ll be judged by a hand much more real and honest than any court of law, but as it stands, those of you like realist need to understand that people are gone, two rather tragically. and you don’t have to know someone personally to feel a connection and a sadness when they are lost.
Even Hitler had people who loved him. MJ was never that bad.
Here, here. Very well said.
“MJ was never that bad.”
NEVER THAT BAD? You say this of a child molester. Back up a minute!
R.I.P
well I only know who micheal jackson is out of these but I just researched the other two. Its quite sad when anyone dies but its weird when MJ does. I didn’t think he COULD die..
I’m with you… It wasn’t like he was a real person… More like a King Arthur or a unicorn… a nice idea, but not real enough to ever die.
RIP you white-wannabe pedophile.
R.I.P. Jimi Hendrix, Bon Scott, Cliff Burton, now M.J.
I believe Michael Jackson molested those children. Yet, I am sadden by his death. I was born in 1989 so he’s been around my entire life. I used to watch his movie Moonwalker over and over. It had some of the best music videos: Bad, Speed Demon, Smooth Criminal. “Drugs and bug and drugs and bug.” (‘course that’s not his line… but it’s in there.) My earliest memories of music are of his. So as far as he’s fallen, there will always be a little piece of me that stills adores him.
I hope his victims find peace. But also I hope he finds peace in death that he didn’t find in life.
Why do you believe that. Court said he was not guilty. I don’t believe he touched those kids in a wrong way. He was a very weird person. But ah well…I will miss him I guess. R.I.P. Michael
R.I.P.
MJ Was found innocent by a jury of his peers. Just because he had the children in his bed or round his house doesn’t automatically mean anything wrong happened. He just wanted those kids who weren’t having a good life to be a bit happier so he did that by inviting them round his place and just letting them having a good time, not engaging in any sort of wrongdoing. He spent time with those kids so they could enjoy himself, because inside his head he was still young and there is nothing wrong with that. But if you feel that he has done wrong, then why don’t we look at other celebs eh? What about Madonna, how do we know she isn’t doing anything dodgy with the kids she’s adopted eh? And all these other celebs who have adopted kids? Think about that..Also don’t judge MJ by his face. Sure, it looked a bit odd at first, but it was his face he could do what the hell he wanted with it. If any of you went out and got plastic surgery to change your face and it looked a bit odd, i wouldn’t judge you by that, just your plain ignorance.
Plus, lets not forget about his career, made one of the biggest selling albums of all time (Thriller) and a lot of other good albums, something which i’ve never seen the ignorant people on here do.
RIP Michael Jackson
WHY DID THEY TAKE MICHAEL!!?!?!?
….Farrah
I Knew A Day Would Come To That
She WAS Wonderful!
Lived A Wonderful Life!
Successful Career
Beautiful In Everyway!
It’s so weird though, my childhood memories were filled with MJs music and now he’s dead… dang… guess this is how my mom felt when elvis died… (yeah shes damn old… XD) R.I.P … the king of pop will be missed…
Darkness falls across the land,
grisly ghouls are close at hand,
creatures crawl in search of blood
to terrorise yawls neighbourhood.
And whosoever shall be found
without the soul for getting down,
must stand and face the hounds of hell
and rock inside a corpse’s shell.
The foulest stench is in the air,
the funk of forty thousand years,
and grisly ghouls from every tomb
are closing in to seal your doom.
And though you fight to stay alive,
your body starts to shiver.
For no mere mortal can resist
the evil of The Thriller.
*Loud Cackle in a Vincent Price voice*
RIP MJ. Whether he did or he didn’t do what he is accused of doing, a mother and family is in mourning. Let’s not forget that much, at least.
RIP
im sad.
Please! Show some respect for the dead!
Why? No really why? I didn’t respect the guy before he died, so why should I respect him now?
Because he is DEAD and you’re not. It is at least vital to show some respect to the dead ones and forget about their past, because they have been punished with the worst punishment. (-Aristoteles?)
Em, I’m not saying nasty or untrue things about him. I’m saying that I didn’t respect him when he was alive, so why should I be hypocritical now?
There is no need for being hypocritical. By “showing respect” it doesn;t mean you have to mourn and cry. It means that, if you got anything not nice to say about him, keep him out of your mouth.
He’s dead; it’s over. I’m just asking you to respect the fact that he exists no more, so as to prevent any argument from happening.
I think you’re confusing courtesy, which I am showing, with respect.
I’m quite honestly tired of hearing about it between my mother in law screaming “OH MY GOD” last night making me think something was wrong with the baby or the kids to waking up this morning to all the TVs being on talking about MJ on and on and occasionaly mentioning Farrah in between quite litteraly i heard on the the “has more information on the final moments of farrah faucett” “We’ll get to that in a minute but back to Michael Jackson.” They were people…..people die….every day…..it’s an inevitable after-effect of birth. I’m not being callous I just have no attachment to people I don’t know in the slightest other than how the media portreys them… and besides that they were just doing their jobs….. celebrities or not, it was just a job….
You have a good point. Others have said similar things on here; that thousands of people die on this planet, every day, some in horrendous and unjust ways, and just because we got a bit of enjoyment from these entertainers, we act like they were personal and lifelong friends.
He was a pedophile. He deserves zero respect.
is Nobody giving their respects to Farrah Fawcet and Ed McMahon? I mean in my opinion they were both much less *crazy* and more respectable than MJ
im giving respects, but i dont think it matters how less crazy or cooler or more respectable they were it just mater that somebody died. and quite honestly i dont understand why they are going all out and talking about life achievements or anything, my friends grandpa died just a few weeks ago and i didnt see anything on the tv. these people arent superbeings or anything…
they’re human beings just like everyone else and they should be treated as us.
Very bad week for Legends. Possibly the worst of the millenia, so far…
I’ll miss them all.
I find it noteworthy, that all the acrimonious debate over Michael Jackson’s life and actions, has eclipsed the fact that there are two other people being memorialized here.
i totally agree
Funny, I said to someone the other day that MJ was going to, in effect, be canonised after his death…
What a horrible thought.
no fav button?
have u noticed that they all have the same smile?
anyways
RIP
Umm, they all have teeth and lips…
I’ve been reading a few blogs where people obviously dislike him, but straight-up have no respect for him or his family during this time. People sometimes believe going against the grain combined with social media is trendy, giving them an edge. We must be careful not to use a faceless Internet as an excuse to abandon humanism, respect and dignity.
For my bit on Jackson’ death:
http://hellouniverse.wordpress.com/
Do you have another excuse we can use?
(J/K)
I’m affected by MJ dying. I’m twelve. My nephew is affected. He’s only known who he is for eight hours. He’s seven. MJ will live on forever as the King of Pop. No one really paid attention to Farrah and Ed because everyone knew Farrah was going to die, MJ’s was a shock, and hello, he’s MICHAEL JACKSON!
Yes!! He’s Michael Jackson. He’s an accused Pedophile, he openly confessed to sleeping with boys (who weren’t his sons!!), he’s openly mishandled his children (at least of them anyway by dangling him over the side of a balcony), he claims to have a skin diease, but it can be proved that he doesn’t and it was his own personal Plastic Surgery Fixation that caused it (that skin diease he’s supposed to have appears in patches, it does not appear as a whole.), he has obtained his children by either deceit or bribery as those children do not obviously belong to him (Children are supposed to look like their parents even when he was young do you see any resemblence to Michael Jackson in any of his “kids”, also Half Castes are suppose to at least look a little black, either in shape or skin tone, his “kids” are totally white (They’re not even albino.) So yes he’s Michael Jackson, eternal fool, deceiver, corrupt and possible Child Molester to boot. Not a role model for anyone (except the criminally insane)
Um, in case you didn’t notice, Michael Jackson is the ‘King of Pop’. That’s what I meant. God, if you don’t like him, don’t post comments, then.
Who called him the king of pop. He’s not there are many singers who are a hundred times better. I believe he was was responsible for the name the King of Pop, and also his publicity department played on the title “The King of Pop”, no one ever called him the King of Pop, he was no classic performer, there are many more better performers in Pop History – Jimi Hendrix, The Stones, Elvis, Simon and Garfunkel, The Beatles, Jerry Lee Lewis. They were the real Kings of Pop, Michael Jackson was just a wannabe with a big Publicity machine behind him which shows you that talent means nothing as long as you have a lot of publicity behind you look at them X Factor series of programs (i.e. both the X Factor and the American X Factor)
Actually, I believe it was Elizabeth Taylor, one of his closest friends, that gave him the nickname ‘king of pop’ while announcing him the winner of an awards ceremony…
xx
Tbf, he’s kids dont necessarily have to be ‘half cast’. My best mate mick’s dad is black and shes white like her mum….she just got all the white genes instead of the any black. It’s not set in stone that the kids would HAVE to be half cast…
x
Actually one is acceptable, but for all three to be white. Sorry!! It just doesn’t work out that way. The dominant gene for Jackson would be black (since both his parents were black) he would have three children carrying the (for him but recessive for whites) dominant black gene and the recessive white gene. Therefore at least one kid might come up white, but there would at least be some small trace of black heritage. There is none, also the kids look nothing like Jackson, therefore they are not his kids.
fair point. But the world works in mysterious ways. Maybe it was selected that way. Maybe the mother cheated. Maabe it was something else. who knows?
x
well pplz i think that he MJ maybe weird, ok VERY weird but think about it, HE DIED, NO LIFE, WE WILL NEVER HEAR OF HIS NAME AGAIN, HE WILL NEVER TAKE ANOTHER BREATH. i think ppl need to cut him some slack. plus he wasn’t half bad of a singer.
My thoughts and sympathy go out to families and friends of Farrah, Ed, and Michael.
I feel bad for people in 9/11.
Good riddance. Maybe if they get his kids into counselling immediately, it’s not too late.
what does 9/11 have to do with this?
Absolutely nothing. I’m stating something.
I like candy bars. I’m stating something, too.
I’m glad to see we’re on the same page.
And I Like Jellybeans. There you go!! I’ve stated something too
As to all the allegations about MJ — If you weren’t there, how can you be sure that anything happened? The ONE truth to MJ is that he died on June 25, 2009.
Farrah? — I do feel for her family; the “big C” is not easy to deal with.
Ed? — May have worked himself into the ground. No one really knows how much time he donated to charity functions [yes, other than MDA].
David — farewell, grasshopper.
May they all find peace in whatever hereafter they went to.
R.I.P. Ed and Farrah.
Goodbye.
Wait, so because someone is (in your opinion) a bad actress, they deserve to die? What the….?
Man, I miss you already, Michael~
I hope there’s no people in heaven that hate you…
There’s no reason for them to.
But I really didn’t want my first encounter with you to be your gravestone…
Pure Love from Juneau
(But mostly from me, shh!)
What? Is there hate in heaven? Don’t be silly. Either heaven exists and hatred has no place there, or heaven does not exist at all. Choose.
R.I.P
Nice to find that a few people are honouring our fellow human beings. May they all feel at peace and that they have lived a fullfilled life.
Although I didn’t really like Michael Jacksons music, I really do respect him for everything he acheived in his life, and do R.I.P.
You will be missed, MJ.
I know it was a couple of weeks ago, but where’s David Carradine’s pic?
you know what? im pretty god damn tired of people focusing on all the bad things a person does in their life!!! people should just focus on the good things MJ did. he will never be forgoten because of the mark he’s made in not only pop history but human history.
Belatedly to Kate:

“… im pretty god damn tired of people focusing on all the bad things a person does in their life!!! people should just focus on the good things MJ did. he will never be forgoten because of the mark he’s made …”
Amen, Kate…
thats why I made the comments I did a few days ago about my neighbors encounters with MJ as a kid. He actually was an extremely sweet strange gentle vulnerable child at age 7. He wasn’t like other kids. I’m amazed that he grew up to accomplish what he did. Such
people can be horribly misunderstood bacause of their anomalous
behavior starting in childhood. Add to that the abuse, the autoimmune disorder…usually a recipe for disaster.
Instead, we got almost 40 years of his talent instead of none.
I wasn’t a fan of his stuff but he obviously struck a huge nerve with many others. I choose to respect that part of it. This site is a place where we can all air our obviously mixed feelings.
However, these threads have a flaw. Those who read the first page or so, and never see the rebuttals of foolish or meanspirited posts, and just start up the nastiness again, get rebutted again…and on it goes…Is there an Old Threads home some of these can be retired to at some point? (Once enough posters have gotten everything out of their system?) Rezpekfully, BGC
And RIP to all the lost talented people (David, Farrah, Billy, Ed, etc) who passed these last few weeks. Hope they have their own Rainbow Bridge to sing & dance & play upon.
Wow this has certainly caused a lot of drama.
Sad about Farrah. Cancer is a terrible illness which nobody deserves. At least she is no longer in pain.
I am British and therefore unaware of to who the man on the bottom is. I understand he is really only famous in America. Well respect to his family anyway.
Michael Jackson. We all have our opinions about him, particularly regarding whether he did “it” or not. Even if I believe he did do it…do I think he deserves to die?
Of course not. Nobody deserves to die.
You cannot deny that he was a singer who had a massive impact on many people. Personally I feel that he stopped making good music 20 years ago (with the odd good song since). But to other people, his most devoted fans, this is a big deal for them. Just like it was with Elvis, just like it was with John Lennon.
If one of my favourite singers/actors died, I would be pretty sad too, regardless of the fact that I will probably never meet them.
It’s unfair to talk down to anyone who is sad about his death. Nobody should me made to feel guilty about grieving. Even if they don’t know the person.
And nobody deserves to die.
Well said, Charlie.
As a fellow Brit, I don’t know who the guy in the lower pic is either, but it’s bad news for his family.
I was sad when Freddy Mercury died back in 1991 because he headed up my favourite group, but hey I got over it, and it was never like I’d met the guy.
Cancer is a bad one to die from, I wouldn’t wish that on anyone. It’s a long lingering death campared with Michael Jackson’s death which seems to me to have been quick. I’ve had several members of my family die from Cancer. It isn’t a good death, so I feel for Farrah’s family.
At least MJ’s death, as I say, SEEMS to have been quick but I only now what everyone else knows from the media. Which isn’t much at the moment.
some of you guys are ruining a peaceful picture
Now Billy Mays…….
What will Michael Jackson, Farrah Fawcett, and Ed McMahon get for Christmas this year?
Patrick Swayze.
im more sad that Billy Mays died than all three of these people combined.
I could be more sad that my hamster died, except I do not have a hamster.
R.I.P. all of them. Icons of America, are now gone… And don’t forget about poor Billy Mays who passed away today. Sometimes this world is just so unfair. These icons never did anything to die so young. It is truly sad. R.I.P. all of you, you will never be forgotten.
wherez billy mays?
and now billy mays is gone…. WHAT THE HELL IS IN THE WATER IN HOLLYWOOD?!?!
thats sad that you dont get it. have people lost COMPLETE common sense?
What about David Carridine?sure, he killed himself, but He’s still a loss to the world
wait, its ed mcmahon…my bad. you still should have got a better picture. if you don’t put what it is it looks like your talking about carson. and billy mayes should still be there
No he shouldn’t considering that he was still (I believe) alive when this was posted.
Ok, I’m going to admit that I thought he was a freak.But that was when I was young.I regret saying all those things now.I only saw Michael for his talent only and I think you guys should too.R.I.P to Ed,Farrah,Michael, and Billy.
well looks like it is the time of these tear all celebrities die. R.I.P.
you forgot david carradine
Ok, I gave up reading cuz the posts are just a mix of MJ-rants It may not be polite to speak bad of the dead but the “victims” would probably no wanna be rememberd as “victims” for the rest of there lifes, ether they were raped and need to get help… then they can afford it or its a lye, wich means the parents are lying, then ther gonna need help to haldel munchausen by proxy…
Im just hoping the next one who post sees this:
Who are the other two?
Say what you will, there will never be another dancer with such grace, style, and precision as Michael. Nor music that sets my feet dancing as his does… and always will.
exactly 5 months ago tmorow mj and them died…
so sad :’(
mj was so sexy…
oh god, it’s a big lost indeed :’(
Can you fax or email them to me please?
I can see the concepts of friends, and even of having respect for people, as being things that confuse you.
I did not like MJ’s music, but that doesn’t impel me to go round insulting people who did.
