I just had to go out for a little walk and a ciggie, as everyone in this room was yakking about Michael bloody Jackson and his memorial and where his brain is or whether he had real hair or not or whether he was any good...
AAAARRRRGH!
It's worse than being in the office during the world cup!
SHUTTHEFUCKUP!

Pro It winds me up the amount they go on about him. Yes it was sad he dies, yes he was a good entertainer but not the best by far!
Tis why I refuse to write about him in my blog

Pro oops sad he died I meant

I was lucky (depending on how you look at it of course) I have an assignment that is due in befoe midnight today and so have not had time for TV, and you can avoid it on the internet.

It also annoys me that more people vote for Big Brother and X Factor than at the elections. x

But can you sort it out?
If you want you "coin pouch" made larger, I think you need a plastic surgeon...

I respect the mans musical ability but he wasn't worth 3 hours of TV coverage.
And when asked why I don't have a TV licence that will be listed as one of my reasons...

Pro I've been curled up in bed/bath/bed with a good book...
So the memorial is today then?
A few more hours of House it is!

You should work here Nick, no-one gives two shits about Michael Jackson or his funeral. It's absolutely blissful.

To much air time disgraceful. It comes down to the money to be made. Its like vultures pickin the bones. I refused to talk about it or listen to it

I liked the guy, even though he was insane. But he's dead, geez, let him be dead, folks :\
I live in the middle of nowhere and that's still all I hear about.
People die, it's sad. But the media bloody circus is just insane. It's not like the family is shying away from the media though is it.
I really don't care - not because I'm a mean person but because I am not a part of that world, why oh why do we feel like we know celebrities so well?
I watched Torchwood instead!
Rosiebud
Bo made me watch it (that is my excuse and I am sticking to it lol) I thought the bad organisation and such was very funny, I didn't even like him and I got choked up sometimes. Then I pulled myself together and went home to watch Holby then Torchwood.

Oh I know. Far too much television coverage for a washed up, mentally and physically ruined pop star!
I'm more annoyed that The Guardian had a double page spread on pages 2 and 3!

It is always sad when someone talented dies young (I was not an MJ fan though).
The 7/7 thing was 4 years ago. Every day of the year is possibly linked to an atrocity at some point in history somewhere in the world. There has to be time when we let go and move on.

Yeah, I made the mistake of questioning why the memorial for the 7th July victims got 2 minutes on the news, when MJ's service was on at least 4 channels in the UK alone in its entirety.
You'd think I'd killed him myself.
