So, Michael Jackson died.

Am I the only one who doesn't really care that he died? I mean, sure, he made some good music but he was also clearly mentally fucked up, a general creep and probable pedophile.

I've already been told that saying that is mean and insensitive but people seem to forget that 150,000+ people die every day. Many of those die from AIDS, murder, starvation or numerous other reasons that are far more tragic than a heart attack. Many of these people also most likely had careers that were more beneficial to society than a song and dance.

So, why is it so tragic that he died?

Am I happy he died? No, there is nothing pleasurable about death. Am I sad? No, not in the slightest. Let's be honest, if there is a hell, he'll probably be headed in that direction.
