Regardless of everything else, we've lost a great musician.

R.I.P.

Some newspapers say he's in a coma.

msnbc updated the site confirming he is dead. I never really cared for the guy as a person but he was a great artist... R.I.P.

I'm sure there are going to be a large quantity of posts saying something along the lines of "Woohoo, one less pedophile!", but he actually made some pretty darn impressive music.

Anyways, R.I.P as well Michael Jackson.

This is where I found out he might have died.

Michael Jackson was a pretty cool guy, meh, danced and sang, and didn't afraid of anything.

Is my signature showing up?

Yes.

Okay.

I needed a new sig anyway...

Not going to do the signature thing. Yes, Michael Jackson was a talented individual regardless of all the other stuff he did, but who's to say he's more important than other dead people, like George Carlin or Bernie Mac or some random child in India?

That's what I hate about tributes. People take time to acknowledge celebrities that die, but not other people that died on the same day, or even in the same hour, which is arrogance on the level that I have never fuckin' seen before

Well, this is a rhythm game forum and Michael Jackson was the master of rhythm. And I think someone posted a topic about Bernie dying...

This man was by far my favorite Pedophile

It's called The Media.

You can call me an asshole, but I can see this happening. Hes ...dead... along with his fading career. Wait six months till the "secret recordings" are found and then they make money over mediocre material.

Anyways, RIP

He's been dead for about 15 years years now to me...

I added the siggy, but adjusted it a bit.

Meh.

Spoiler:

Ah, I got that forwarded to my phone. Even if I did do forwards, I wouldn't forward that one.

Hey, you can't cry over everything. People die, so people make jokes of it to make the atmosphere less depressing.

Besides, I don't care how good his music was, he was a sick person.

MJ's legacy could have been so much more...
That to me is what is the most tragic.

Yup.

I knew that some people were going to say "screw the pedo", and that's understandable.

It is also a tragic thing that Farrah died also, and the fact that Michael died soon after totally overshadowed it. It looks like more people here didn't exactly like the man than at FoF-FF. Hell, even Scutch cared. Vedi didn't, but what are you going to do....
