Re: The Gametoast Obituaries
RIP both Farah Fawcett and Michael Jackson.
It's sad, seeing as Farah was about to get married...

Re: The Gametoast Obituaries
It's sad that he died, seeing as how he made such great things like Thriller, but I REALLY wish he hadn't died, as I'm getting tired of deleting "z0mg michael jackson r D34D!!!1!one!" comments from my YouTube videos..

Re: The Gametoast Obituaries
Yes, I respect him, and it is rather insensitive, and I suppose I was out of line, but honestly he isn't one of my favorite musicians (read: least favorite.)Taivyx wrote:A little insensitive, no?GangsterJawa wrote:Wow...

Re: The Gametoast Obituaries
Farah Fawcett wasn't my favorite actress, either. It still sucks that she died... I don't think many of us (if any) are sad that he's dead simply because he made good music (in our eyes). I like his music, but have thought for the past couple of years that he's kind of a creep, but I'm still sad that he's done and gone.

Re: The Gametoast Obituaries
It is probably out-of-place, but it is not insensitive. People die every day and no one even bothers to mention them outside of maybe some family members. One death being well-publicized does not make it any more relevant to someone without any connections to said death.Taivyx wrote:A little insensitive, no?GangsterJawa wrote:Wow...

Re: The Gametoast Obituaries
The fame or how much we like or dislike a persons talents shouldn't affect our mourning. If the jonas brothers died in a plane crash, sure, I don't like their music, but it's sad. The main thing is that they made millions of people happy, be it with their music or their movies while they were still amongst the living.

Re: The Gametoast Obituaries
I woke up at noon, got on the computer, when to my IE's Yahoo! homepage, and saw the article preview Michael Jackson was found in his home not breathing. After that I continuously went to my homepage over and over until I finally saw the headline "Michael Jackson dead at 50."
This is so unbelievable. It's like, I can't rap my head around it. 0_o It just happened so fast and was unexpected...
Until a year ago, I didn't realize he was famous for his music. I figured he was famous for something that mostly got covered up by pedophileness and wierd looks.
Now I wonder what schools gonna be like, there always used to be Michael Jackson jokes going around, but now what will come of those jokes now that he's dead?
Wonder if he really died of cardiac arrest. I guess we'll all have to wait for the autopsy.

Re: The Gametoast Obituaries
I just read in the newspaper that a deaf 16-year old boy that was gone missing 4 days ago was found in a metal container, 13 km from my house (and near my school). 5 other boys had "wanted to teach him a lesson" and locked him up in there. When he had tried to light a small fire, he accidently sufficated himself. The news was surpressed my Micheal Jackson's dead, but I wanted to give tell about this guy too.

That's horrible...
RIP David Carradine, Ed McMahon, Farrah Fawcett, Michael Jackson, and Billy Mays. Mays is quite surprising considering that he was just on Conan O'Brien a week or so ago.
How many more American icons are we going to lose?

Re: The Gametoast Obituaries
This be bad. Very bad. If Billy Mays is dead, then the new infomercial king is possibly going to be the Shamwow guy who likes like he's from TF2... RIP to all of them.
Off-topic: Wow, within the past week, this sopic has gotten about as much usage as it had in the whole 6 months of the year before it.

Re: The Gametoast Obituaries
Rip Billy Mays
Opinion:
Both Billy and Mike were 50 years old when they died(weird) Pitchmen probably has had all the season's shows for season one already made. So one season most likely.
[how i think he died (joke)]
