I'm willing to grant crazy artists a lot of slack between appreciating their work versus understanding that they are raving pieces of mutant poo poo in their personal lives, but I'm not sure it extends to playing smash bros on 12 year old boys especially when that wouldn't necessarily be the weirdest poo poo they get up to

Kids such as Corey Feldman and the Culkin family who actually were taken advantage by adults (sexually and financially), never reported anything shady about Jackson.


Of course. I mean just look how well they turned out! Nothing bad could have ever happened to them.

I'm not saying Michael Jackson making GBS threads and pissing all over his mansion and screaming at his maids to clean it up is a thing that actually happened, I'm just saying if I were that rich I would do the same.

Let me guess, there's a head, shaft, balls; maybe pressed or permed hair with some glitter sprinkled on it?

What was the difference between Neil Armstrong and Michael Jackson?




Neil Armstrong was the first man to walk on the moon, Michael Jackson hosed little boys in the rear end

He was an emotionally stunted retard who made childish music that children like largely because of his image/dancing/childish perspective. The kids with poo poo taste grew up and confused nostalgia with musical quality. Don't Stop 'til You Get Enough is his only tolerable song and he hosed kids.

Honey vocals? the guy sound like he constantly being poked by a loving stick. Oh ahh ehhh HEE hEEE AHHHHHHHHHHH!Don't stop till you get a enough! WHoo hoo man in the mirror, I'm bad!ah oh ahh Trill ah ohh er!

Also thank you Jackson for being the voice that set up the loving pattern of just being layer on top of what ever poo poo was popular at the time.

Are you implying that having Michael Jackson molest you makes you live longer or something?

EDIT: I think it's just Feldman's inherent drug resistance. You have to admit neither he nor Culkin look particularly healthy.

Dance, production, scale, iconography, longevity. Of course Michael succeeded far earlier with the Jackson 5 and while he had absences from music before his death, Prince had stretches between 1996-2004 and 2009-2014 where his poo poo pretty much sucked.

I would say Michael Jackson excelled as a Pop artist whereas Prince explored wider territory as a more diverse "musician". Prince's specialty has always been his abilities as a musician first and foremost, as well as a top tier live performer.
