Michael Jackson is about to die.

c'mon, guys... Off the Wall was one mutherfucking funky piece of work, and so what if he touched children, we all won' tush children shumtaimes, it's Michael Jackson! Seriously though, I'm not feeling that awesome about him dead. Fawcett, oh yeah bring out the booze, but Jacky... I dunno.
 
I found out about this at work. I don't care for him as a person but I enjoyed some of his music.

Exactly. I don't like the idolatry all the much but he has some great songs.

I read the internet slowed down substantially with people seeking to verify news of his death. There has never been anything like it, apparently.
