The Fly
Awesome - he was wearing a white shirt and white pants, and had the yellow vest. I had it on the wall next to my bed.
Nice! I had the exact poster on the back of my bedroom door in Junior High. Loved the yellow vest!

You Rock my World was a good tune.
Hah, totally cool. I just know that you'd appreciate the hilarity of these cameos:

That was just...wow.
Gotta love my mom. CNN's sister channel HLN keeps saying "reportedly" dead, and my mom goes, "They don't want to confirm because they don't wanna be starting something".
That is just stunning in its 80s awfulness.
VJs could be a very "live" career if MusicTV actually played....music.
When I heard about Michael Jackson's death today, I was shocked and in too much disbelief to be sad or process what an icon the world has lost. After I got home, I wanted to come to Interference and share my thoughts and memories. This is a website I have frequented for nine years now, and I was looking forward to finding a little comfort and mutual understanding from the other music fans here. We all love music, or we wouldn't have ended up here in the first place. Discussing Michael Jackson, and what he meant to us as music fans, was something I expected to be a source of comfort.
And then I come to this thread and I see the most disgusting, passive aggressive, tasteless remarks and jokes. The general music thread in B&C is even more vile than this one. I'm so disgusted to see the lack of respect being shown toward a human being in the hour of his passing. It really says a lot about the character of the people writing these remarks. I realize this is "just an Internet forum," but clearly, for some people, that excuses the fact that they are behaving reprehensibly toward a man who meant so much to millions of people who has just lost his life and the countless fans who are mourning. The lack of sensitivity by some of the people here is absolutely staggering. I'm sorry, but there is no way you can defend such behavior to me. Celebrity or not, guilty or not, he was just a human being and deserves to be shown some decency and respect.
To be fair, there are a lot of people who are not affected at all by his passing, and I for one am one of them. I respect the man and his work, before it all got freaky. Another day, another death, and it sucks you weren't able to find comfort here, but there's too many different people. Can someone honestly say he was an 'icon' and providing good for the last ten years to his non-fans/fanatics other than a comedy outlet?
People'd be shocked at some of the texts I and others here have received today.
Fair call
Silly me. I thought this was a thread discussing a developing news story throughout the day. I didn't realize it was a wake.
I saw the text. Micheal J is dead. There is only one Michael J
I don't think it's that much to ask that people keep negativity out of a RIP thread (if you need a refresher course: http://www.u2interference.com/forums/f199/rip-saddam-171006.html), especially since it's been asked again and again and again.

I kind of rolled my eyes at the over the top outpouring and the gazillion avatars that popped up surrounding Heath Ledger's death, but it never occurred to me to mock him or those that mourned him.
