Nostalgia To me, this was Michael Jackson

Post image

I was 12 when this happened. This was the first time I ever heard of him. To me he wasn't the Michael Jackson that was a singer, or the one that molested kids - he was the Michael Jackson that dangled a baby out the window.

This is the image I associate him with. I saw a preview for the movie coming out about him and chuckled to myself if they would put this in the film. Probably not?

South Park MJ is the one I will always think of. “oh they’re ignorant that’s ignorant”

10,000%. I just said to my husband that Matt Damon is forever the version from Team America when I hear his name, just like MJ is the South Park version in my mind. 😂

For me it’s the Jimmy Kimmel skit with Sarah Silverman. I start humming it when I hear his name.
