- CarStan, on 06/27/2009, -14/+409Huge Kudos to Jon for risking his new internet fame for hitting the nail on the head concerning the hypocritical media. He's kinda like the Jon Stewart of internet comedy.
btw, i'd really like to see the Daily Show's take on the Jackson issue. All their tv-watchers have to work overtime on the weekend, i bet. - wraiyne, on 06/27/2009, -24/+273so, let me get this straight:
digg hates micheal. then micheal dies, digg loves him. then some comedian points out everyone did this, and digg hates him again? - TaNaa, on 06/27/2009, -3/+198Exactly what I was thinking... Thank you Jon!
- CarStan, on 06/27/2009, -3/+188yeah, i dont know why people are so offended by it.
its not against Michael. its not even against people that say R.I.P. to
Michael and they that loved him.
its against those ***** that cursed him and spread all those nasty rumors and made ratings on his expense.
The best example is ***** Perez Hilton, accussing Michael of deliberatley faking his cardiac arrest and saying the meanest things about him, only to go 'Oh noes, what a loss, i'm SOO sad for his children ;'-(' after he dies for real.
To all those: ***** YOU - Joest23, on 06/27/2009, -8/+188The most impressive thing about this song is how quickly it was pumped out. His death was announced, what, almost exactly 48 hours ago and the mourning didn't really start until yesterday morning (Lets say that was 34 hours ago). He wrote this, recorded it, edited it and posted it in that little time. He is extremely talented.
- christianboutin, on 06/27/2009, -2/+173I've rarely seen Jon so pissed off.
- lllslinklll, on 06/27/2009, -9/+139Just came here to submit the same video. Good luck though, I got dugg down when I said the same thing in another story's comments.
- glaroc, on 06/27/2009, -9/+139***** the media. *****.
- realmadrid2727, on 06/27/2009, -0/+115Or he caused MJ's cardiac arrest.
Think about it.
(Don't actually think about it.) - Sonique99, on 06/27/2009, -9/+122"I hope there are little boys in heaven."
"Oh ***** off! It's a joke."
"*****."
Gold. - wonkavsn, on 06/27/2009, -1/+109Not bad for just a regular everyday normal guy.
- 7000Questions, on 06/27/2009, -4/+95E = MC Vagina
- demitio, on 06/27/2009, -0/+73Jon has never been crazy about the mainstream media: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zV5UTHRx0a4
- nanowerx, on 06/27/2009, -3/+71Jon never fails to impress. He is right and made that point with a very convincing flow!
- had3l, on 06/28/2009, -4/+70Call me naive, but I truly believe he didn't ***** those children.
He just lived in a fantasy world, he thought he was Peter ***** Pan, he didn't want to grow up. He befriended children not to ***** them, but to make him feel like he was a kid himself, like he was innocent and sweet, like he was above all the ***** that happens in the world.
He certainly had psychological issues, but I personally think that even if he had urges towards little boys, he didn't act on them. Why? Because the moment he raped a kid, his illusion of tender innocence would be lost forever, and he wouldn't risk that.
Again, that's all my interpretation of the facts. And it was never proven that he actually abused of any children. - Ninapendawewe, on 06/27/2009, -8/+73That was fast! i love jon lajoie!
- jordanlgta, on 06/27/2009, -9/+68WAIT JUST A SEC NOW...
Many of you in here saying "Lajoie hit the nail on the head" are the same ***** that he's talking about, so
***** YOU TOO. - CarStan, on 06/27/2009, -3/+60*One of the best videos by Jon. ***** the hypocritical media.
there i fixed it for you - DouglasQ, on 06/27/2009, -8/+60Michael Jackson isn't dead, his face just needs to cling to a new host body.
- joshmoney, on 06/27/2009, -6/+55Who's digg? I do not know him.
- DirtPile, on 06/27/2009, -1/+42He's dead, Jim.
- americanoboy, on 06/27/2009, -1/+40... *****!
- digitul, on 06/27/2009, -6/+44this is just like anna nicole smith. she was a walking punchline when she was alive. once she died all you heard about was how much of a loving mother she was, and she was such a great person
- TDDebug, on 06/27/2009, -6/+42*I didn't actually watch the video. Also, I suck *****.
there i fixed it for you - whipnet, on 06/27/2009, -2/+37A true comedian. His live act is great too.
* - dbossnirvana, on 06/27/2009, -1/+34What a coincidence, me too! Now show me your genitals.
- rabidbob, on 06/27/2009, -5/+38"Digg" is not a singular entity; it's a forum.
Personally I feel exactly the same about Jackson now as when he was alive; I hope most people, both on and off Digg, are mature enough to do the same. Death does not mitigate or forgive the good and bad things a person has done in their life. However I'd not presume to speak for anyone else be they a participant in the Digg community or not. - DivineMonkey, on 06/28/2009, -3/+35Technically, you didn't see him.
- charm803, on 06/28/2009, -0/+30I run a local crime blog, so I get to read the stories and reactions first hand.
I have YET to get a story of a child who was raped by an adult where the parents didn't seek full punishment of the law to make sure the guy never did it again. As a matter of fact, these are the worst, with people calling for the public hanging of the guy who did it.
Even in jail, pedophiles are the worst of the worst.
I'm sorry, but if someone molested my child, and it was Michael Jackson, the first thing I would be doing is making sure his ranch was torn down and sent to jail so he would never do it again.
I believe the kid was told to lie about it by his father. - CrazyChair, on 06/28/2009, -0/+29He was definitely a creepy bastard, but I definitely won't call him a child molester based on what we know. He was never even charged the first time the accusations were made, and he was found not guilty the second time.
The alleged victim and his parents that were making the first accusations really weren't credible people. They seemed much more interested in dragging his name through the mud so they could get their payday rather than justice. I find it hard to believe that any parent would accept a payout from someone who violated their child. At least much harder to believe than someone like MJ (with his extreme emotional problems) not succumbing to an extortion attempt.
I always try to remember the "McMartin preschool trials" when it comes to these kinds of cases. We shouldn't lose our objectivity just because children are involved and media sensationalism. - senae, on 06/27/2009, -0/+28Digg needs a good ***** too.
- xposedbones, on 06/27/2009, -0/+28the "It's just a joke" comment was for the "i hope there's little boy in heaven" comment made just before
- ReDBuLLCuRT, on 06/27/2009, -1/+29He's like Jean-Claude Van Damme. But instead of fighting people, he has sex with them.
- GraceHead, on 06/27/2009, -1/+282 + 2 = Vagina
- IgorUnchained, on 06/27/2009, -0/+23Cooking
Cleaning
and Vaginas - CarStan, on 06/27/2009, -0/+22wow. i just now realized that the name of the character is MC Vagina.
i feel so stupid now - tacoman359, on 06/28/2009, -0/+21I think you missed the joke.
- ParticleMan420, on 06/27/2009, -0/+21wrong message board.
- MikeyMoose, on 06/27/2009, -1/+21That's gotta make Jon Lajoie jealous!
- CanadianSixPack, on 06/28/2009, -1/+20I have to agree.. he isn't famous. He's just a regular everyday normal guy.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5PsnxDQvQpw - jamc100, on 06/28/2009, -0/+18CrazyChair, I have to say that was one of the most well thought out, and articulated posts I've seen regarding MJ. The part about objectivity is something we as rational thinking adults should always consider.
Everything all three of you said, had3I, charm, and crazychair, are exactly my thoughts. I just can't believe he did the things he was accused of. I am a mother, and I can tell you now that if anybody, ANYBODY, molested my child, his ass would be rotting in jail, if my husband doesn't get him first.
One thing that I want to point out about what had3I said about him being childlike and wanting to hang out with children, I have a slightly different viewpoint on it. I don't think he wanted to befriend children because it "made him feel like he was a kid himself, like he was innocent and sweet", I think it was because of his childlike nature/brain that he wanted to be with them because he could relate with them. Like he understood the things they were feeling, and what they were going through, because in his own world he was too. I think that was just the world he fit into most. - demitio, on 06/27/2009, -3/+21You did not get this straight at all. Read CarStan's reply to IIIslinkIII
- jpate86, on 06/28/2009, -2/+17To be completely honest who didn't think Michael Jackson had evolved into a freak? We are all guilty of it. We all said mean ***** about him at one time or another. It is kind of sad that it took his death for everyone to focus back on what a talented musician he was.
- paradigmxx, on 06/27/2009, -5/+20I've been following Jon for awhile. He's gonna be big man.
- LemonChicken, on 06/28/2009, -0/+15What the ***** are you talking about? Tupac?
What the *****? - feebes, on 06/28/2009, -1/+15This is just a matter of people taking him for granted. It wasn't until he died that individuals started asking themselves what they gained from having Michael Jackson's music and performances around to see and listen to.
We all preferred to see a "wackjob" for what he was at the time; just a famous wackjob who we enjoy having the ability to lob insults and jokes towards. Now that he is gone this is no longer as satisfying anymore. I don't know if he was a pedophile, and none of you do either. So go ***** yourself if you are so "sure" he did anything inappropriate with those boys, because you weren't there and neither was I. Money is a powerful enough motivator for me to question the validity of accusations like that against a celebrity.
The truth is that he was a wackjob, a ***** amazingly awesome musician/performer wackjob that we got the opportunity to witness in our lifetime. They don't come around too often people, individuals that define an entire genre of music and become a true icon. We are talking names/groups like Hendrix, Beatles, Elvis etc....he was a legend of a man who was also his own man, he copied nobody and yet managed to impress all. If you want to know what "cool" looks like go check out his live shows on youtube.
He was still a wackjob though. - stonebear, on 06/27/2009, -0/+14Someone had to say it.
- Mollives, on 06/28/2009, -0/+14no, just not funny.
- matthewkg, on 06/27/2009, -5/+19Popular opinion on Digg changes with the wind.
- emotecontrol, on 06/28/2009, -3/+17Michael Jackson died in 1991. I have no idea what the hell this is all about. Zombie Michael Jackson finally failed to maintain structural integrity and fell to bits, I guess.
