  1. (Accused) Child Molester Blues
  2. Jesus Juice Jam
  3. 400 Million Dollars in Debt (I can’t pay my bills)
  4. What the hell happened to my nose?
  5. Remember 20 years ago when I was good at music?

I grew up in the 80s and liked his music, but the man became a complete joke later in life. Is the public just going to pretend that none of it happened like with Elvis and The Fat Years? I mean are the 2 figures so separate and distinct that people are just now mourning for the man that really died about 20 years ago? I think this Onion article sums it up best:

Bloomquist. God? Or just an illusion? You be the judge.

I'm not really trying to insult Jackson

I just think it is quite ridiculous to mourn a man most of us would not have been comfortable having our children around. Or to conveniently forget how weird he was the last 20 years. He has been continually vilified in the press, but now they want to play nice and canonize the man? Are we all just supposed to play along and pretend like that stuff didn’t happen?

I think immediately upon someone's death

Its most fitting to at first only look at their positives, just out of respect for the people that adored him. Later on, we can go over his negatives as well.

That's what I can't believe

That there are still people that adored this guy.

I really wasn’t looking to pick a fight, so I’m sorry if I’ve offended anyone, and I do have sympathy for his family. It’s hard when a loved one dies. But we aren’t his family here.

I really can't blame him for the insanity.

The whole Jackson family is nuts. His is just more extreme, possibly because he was the biggest celebrity. All the same, it was absolute madness.

Michael Jackson learned how to hold someone close from Trey Hillman

Cue the picture…
