Michael Jackson is the king of iTunes too | Main | Berlin, Terri Nunn are highlights after Week 1 of Regeneration Tour ยป

June 26, 2009

Let the jokes begin: It's the 'Michael Jackson is now a Zombie' website

Michael_jackson_dead "I was the king of pop. Now I'm the king of the undead." Those words welcome visitors to the Michael Jackson is now a Zombie blog, probably the first but not final "lighter" take on the passing of Michael Jackson.

What was the over/under on time until tasteless jokes? About 20 seconds?

The blog is "written" by MJ himself. Yesterday's most interesting item: "This has been a long day. I died, I came back to life. I dance fought a car. Do you know how much energy this takes out of you? Do you know how hard reanimation is?"

I'm warning you now: Don't go to this blog unless you have a sick sense of humor, laugh at crotch grabbing and are okay with adult language. (You're going to click on it anyway, aren't you?)

Why was he being honored at the BET awards last night, he was whiter than any whitey I have ever seen.

Suzanne

The perv is gone!! Finally, young boys and their parents can relax!

Sarah

I heard he died from food poisoning, he ate a couple of 12 year old nuts.

dave

A Michael Jackson Roast....with him absent....I guess not one of you realize (or care) if his family reads this stuff, and are hurt by it. Just completely shamesfull! This man could have been killed for crying out loud.

air jordans

Life is the art of drawing sufficient conclusions from insufficient premises.

jason

What has 18 balls and 3 pubic hairs?

a slumber party at MJ's.

Stacey

Since he is mostly plastic they are planning on cremating and melting him down. They figure they can turn him into legos and little kids can play with him for a change.

Joe B.

Do you know what Michael Jackson and K-Mart had in common, they both have boys jeans half off!

Wasted money

Anyone who makes jokes about someone dying like this has zero taste or class. What--do you people live on the SPTimes blog? No have lives? Pretty sad. There is nothing funny about this. What is it was your brother or son? Just b/c this idiot at the Times needs some crap on his blog...You nuts think this guy Steve is your buddy ol pal. Wake up and be human.

Gary in Gilroy

That's sooo wrong. More importantly, Who is the new King of Pop? Is there an ascension? Who's in line? Maybe I'll ask Sean...

Marie

Something stinks in Hollywood. 1. They can't find Michaels Personal physician, although he has been identified.Why did he leave the scene? 2. The doctor performed CPR for 40 minutes BEFORE calling 911. The FIRST thing that is taught in Basic LIfe support (CPR) is to call 911 FIRST. Did he give too much narcotic and was scared and tried to resusitate Michael himself. Or did he intentionaly give a lethal dose at michaels request, perhaps.

Jeff in Mpls

LOL Michelle.

I just hope when he went through the Pearly Gates Vincent Price and his nose were waiting for him.

And yet...Elizabeth Taylor outlived him. Liza Minelli. Keith Richards!!

carl

A B C, he went fast, like 1 2 3.

Bill in Nokomis

Just heard MJ had a 100 song catalog of unreleased songs, so his zombie career is definitely going to last.

Kitten Poker

It's so wrong yet so right. The audacity of dying 5 hours after Farrah.

Michelle

How about: The paramedics tried to put an oxygen mask on him, but his nose fell off.
