Today, I rushed home to tell my parents my girlfriend had accepted my proposal. They asked how I could be so selfish at a time like this. Apparently, Michael Jackson's death is more important than their son. FML

That sucks, MJ's death was big news but family comes first.

Congrats! Soon you'll have a new family anyway.

no matter how big of fans they r, its not like they knew him, how can you put a musical artist before your family, especially your son. and its not like he was gonna tell them something dumb, an accepted proposal is big news. PS. i agree 100% #74 - just because he was found innocent doesnt mean anything.

HOW DARE YOU THINK OF URSELF BEFORE MJ. ur parents prob had a boner for him.. Both of them.. fyl :] and ydi for... for.. iuno

UHHHHh his death is more important than N E THING

I agree with #1, although MJ's death in many ways is surprising and tragic because his music was amazing, family always comes first. It's okay to mourn MJ, but not to let it take away from what matters in YOUR life. I agree with you OP, fyl.

Little does the OP know he was actually conceived during a botched thriller/moon walk combo attempt at his parents' wedding dance...

#77 is right...although it was shocking it wasn't like your family knew him and family always come first. an engagement is huge news - trust me, my sister is getting married this summer and it's very exciting! congrats on your engagement!!

whoa guys, sorry about how screwy my comments are acting. i only meant to post that once...i think my computer's having issues lol

you sound so ******* stupid. but it may have just been a really big shock to your parents. he defined a generation, and made a huge impact on your parents. but you really didn't deserve that. there is so much time to mourn over his death, but that moment was special, and you deserved to have family around you. so you can be angry at them, but understand where they are coming from and the devastation of losing such an important idol in their lives.

Michael Jackson isn't dead. He's hanging out with Elvis, Tupac, and John Lennon

better question is how could anyone put a child malestor before there family

MJ was a ******* queer ass child molester, and im glad hes dead.

mj was a great artist... but realistically, if Mj didn't die.. "this is it" would have been staight-to-DVD merchandise... btw op that sux.. congrats tho

Right, go ahead and judge people you don't even know.

talk for yourself ass.. i hate this pedophile rapist

when you say pedophile allegations aside, thats a huge thing to put aside, its cause for a lot of people to not like him

no disrespect to MJ, but didnt he pay the families of the children he was accused of molesting alot of money.......?

cattoe7 0

if you had all that money and ppl were spreading horrible rumors about you would consider giving them money to shut up? especially if you're that popular and EVERYONE knows you?...

oh ya #127 giv the families lots of $ 4 raping their kids thats gunna help the kids out a lot. u cant pay some1 2 4giv u 4 raping them idiot

oh man, im right there with ya bud..so disrespectfull..its not like he murdied anyone. the allegations were never proven. people are so money-hungry these days and will say whatever their lawyers tell them to, so they can make a fast buck.

#143 you've obviously never been raped. money doesn't help. the kid who accused Michael could only give account of two of seven instances. THAT is how I know Michael was innocent. you never forget. ever.
