Well i'm not agreeing with you there.

I do dare to question Michael though, something unbearable and incomprehensible for some MJ fans it seems. Same w/ Prince, i'll question that guy too if the need arises, unlike you're average 'fam'.

No worries. It was meant to be funny. And then some.

They're scarier than hardcore Elvis or Mariah fans.

Uh-oh! I think you guys better slow down the amount of MJ threads....

Wacko Jacko: Shirley MacLaine and Debra Winger called. They wanted to clarify to a certain someone that "Terms of Endearment" really do exist and it wasn't just a fancy name for a motion picture chick flick cult classic.

It's like every other month or so a train pulls into the Org and they all pile off at this stop.

I think his detractors are making MJ threads on purpose.

JackieBlue said:

Even the hypocrites who thinks they're more sane and better than his fans. Some are obsessed with him and would not admit it.

I actually feel bad for reasonable MJ fans like you & Timmy.

Me too.

I've never heard any of his unreleased material- nor do I collect his b-sides, news paper clippings, rare footage, rare vocals, every audio video clip- concerts,-- have never been to a concert of his- don't own a video of it- I barely have all of his solo albums...

but those who do are called 'reasonable'- and I admire their passion for what makes them happy

however when someone calls in with viewpoint from a "humanity" standpoint- it's 'unreasonable'- go figure

I think fans and semi-fans should not call him Jacko. The haters call him whatever they like anyway. jacko still being better than pedophile...

In germany many call him Jacko, but without the prefix "wacko". I doubt most Germans know what Wacko means, and it would not be funny for us to call him Wacko Jacko.

Erm, and as a kid I thought Jacko sounds nice actually. I thought it was a nickname given by the people who like him, what did I know?

I assume that's aimed at me cause of one my response on the previous page?, yes, i was obsessed with him as a teenager, twenty years later i'm not. Michael has made himself out to be both an idiot and genius at times, with his lifestyle choices. I alongside many others loved him as an artist and performer back in the day.

Is it OK for me just to like his older music and performances and laugh at the current crop of nutjobby fans he's cultivated?

He's a flawed person, like everyone else, he's not the be all and end all, for a long time i thought he was the best artist ever, simply put, he isn't. Nobody can lay claim to that.

Doesn't mean i don't respect alot of his art, cause i do, and i'll defend him still to this day, if i feel it's warranted. But it's not like i know him or anything, he's not family, and a lot of his fans come across like he's more important to them than that. Just plain crazy.

Most MJ threads, i'll have my say and get out. That is as much as i'm going to say on this one.

I would say that could have been directed at someone else, not you, but I don´t know. I didn´t write it.

dag said:

I'm referring to the ones who have nothing better to do than put others down here just to make themselves feel good. You don't knock another blogger for digging one artist more than the other and accuse them for being looney. It goes on over and over. Posting gifs and all sort of silliness, how is that normal. Yes, he's a troubled man and I've even commented on it, myself. I also agree that there's a line to admiration without becoming obsessive for the MJ fans. It doesn't matter what I say, people are entitled to blog their opinions and silliness. I'm done.

OK. cool.

Like i said in an orgnote to someone, it was a lot more fun being a fan of things (Music, TV shows, movies etc) before the internet existed, it's just it's nature that dickheads like to trash everything they don't like.

Why bother commenting on things you don't like? i just don't get the mentality.

SoulAlive said:

why didn't anyone say anthing about all those Debarge threads we had?

I'm just sayin....

bboy87 said:

They got called out too. There was a thread about the DeBarge threads during one particular day when there were about 5 or 6 in the top threads.

"Lynching"?

JackieBlue said:

No there were ten on the front page!, The Family, Chico and El. whatever the fuck they're called. I only think i know cause of all those fucking threads!

Debarge were wank, don't think i didn't check them out after all that fuss. Shite.

And i know i undermined my previous post, but fuck it, it's worth it!

Marrk said:

Yep. They had about two good songs, and El Debarge sang like a whiney schoolgirl. Another case of the org over-hyping mediocrity.

midnightmover said:

For once, it's a pleasure doing business with you!

Marrk said:

That's right there were 10 and couldn't understand why some of them couldn't be folded into others. Guess the DeBarge train came to town that day. It felt like an invasion from 1985.

Evvy said:

Meaning what, exactly? I'm sorry, but could you elaborate for me?

JackieBlue said:

There was activator....EVERYWHEEEEERE!

JackieBlue said:

That was no train, it was a DeLorean. hope they hopped back in with Michael J. Fox. I was embarrassed, imagine someone visiting this site for the first (and last!) time and seeing all that shit. They be like, "WTF!?"
