How sad it must be to watch your legacy sold off on the auction block.

I just read somewhere that this was canceled.

His weird collection must mean a lot to him.

If a sequined glove is all of MJ's legacy, then that IS sad. He used to be an awesome entertainer.

When I first glanced at the article headline I thought it read "Michael jacks off the wall" or something to that effect.

johnrhyse: It is indeed sad that someone as talented as Michael Jackson has become an object of pity.

Why? It's the disaster that his life has become is entirely of his own making. It's very hard to pity someone who has been the architect of their own tragedy.

Watching the dude, from the time he was a little kid performing on Wonderama with his brothers and sisters (that was the first time I saw him anyway), turn into this mess was a weird ride. He was one of the most talented entertainers in recent history, but man he imploded.

 
aendeuryu 2009-04-14 11:43:31 PM  
You know, as ridiculous as that sounds, I bet at the height of his fame he could've gotten a lot more than $100,000 for it.

 
signaljammer 2009-04-14 11:44:30 PM  
When Michael Jackson was nine years old he was singing all night in strip clubs in Wisconsin on topics he had no business knowing about. So he's a little weird, so what? When he was a boy thrilling the world, no one asked if his life was the best one he could be leading.

That glove will be worth millions of dollars in ten years or so. Jerry Lee Lewis may have married his underage cousin, but I bet people are dying to buy an official piano that Jerry set on fire. Your sexual transgressions fade. Your legacy lives on, and people will pay royally for a piece of it.

No, you can't have a single crotch-grabbing glove. Not yours. Or the auctioneers.

Submitted that earlier with that headline, got rejected in favour of an incorrect report. Yayyy.

thereadlines [TotalFark] 2009-04-15 12:00:54 AM  
It's clear that they were wantin' to be startin' something with this thriller of an auction, but it's only human nature for Jackson to want to beat it and take it off the wall. It's too bad that he has been the subject of so much controversy over the years: first Billy King, then people asking whether he was black or white, and then wondered about all the lost children. In the end, Jackson has proven to be an invincible unbreakable heartbreaker, and I want to say to him, "I feel like you are another part of me: keep the faith, because you are not alone."

Err, I meant "auctioneers'"

If anyone is retarded enough to pay more than $10 for that, they need to be beaten to death with a black rubber cock.

Plissken: Wonderama

Jesus man, how old are you??

I used to be afraid to watch Wonderama in my tighty-whities cuz I was afraid they could see me.

So sue me, I was like 5.

Haven't thought of Wonderama in years.

And I suppose if Michael is at the auction, that little boy's pants are half off?

I figure you don't need the glove if you don't have the hands.

When I was a kid, I thought having a bunch of arcade games would be the height of wealth and luxury. Well do any Farkers have a basement full of Pacman, Centipede, Asteroids, etc.? Is it fun, or does it get old and lame pretty quick?

I'll bet it's the getting raped by the older man who owns them that gets old.

I had 2 pinball machines and Mr. Do
fun units and good conversation pieces and party favourites, but maintaining old electromechanical arcade machines can be a real headache. Lots of those off sized CRT's, motors, switches etc are impossible to get now.

sold them

Still my ultimate dream is to be able to pick up some machines again, exclusively metal slug 1-3

 
DigitalDirt 2009-04-15 02:00:30 AM  
Egalitarian: , Centipede, Asteroids,

To be honest, it is kind of old and lame. COSTCO sells a multi arcade game with Defender, Robotron, Defender, Defender II, Joust, Bubbles, Splat!, Sinistar, Rampage, Root Beer Tapper, Wizard of Wor, Timber and Satan's Hollow. It was fun for while and when old friends come over it is cool...but that is it. You have to admit the new games are just so much better. On the plus side it is still arcade style which is nice, easy to learn and fast and furious!

 
Egalitarian [recently expired TotalFark] 2009-04-15 02:15:42 AM  
DigitalDirt, MetaRinka
OK I can see that ... if I had a house, money, friends and booze I think a few times of tipsy playing with friends would be fun, then the machine(s) would just gather dust in the corner. Especially if a part broke and there was no way to fix it.

\has no house, little money, few friends, no booze, and no extra parts
