Or, People Hate Michael Jackson, Love Billy Mays.
The 2 Memoriam Image-Macros I made on the dates of the passing of Michael Jackson and Billy Mays were also uploaded to my flickr account, which is primarily perused by LEGO friends and fans of my LEGO work.
On flickr, the Michael Jackson image garnered such comments as “finally he’s dead,” “the children of the world can sleep at ease tonight” and this gem:
Did you hear the cause of death?
It was food poisoning. He ate a 13-year-old weiner.
The Billy Mays image received remarks including the following, “this is going too far,” “yeah it is a wee bit too far” but also more lighthearted remarks like “Do you think his tombstone will have BILLY MAYS HERE on it?”
On the whole it seems, actual zombie Michael Jackson is more tasteful than dead Billy Mays hawking zombie cleaning products.
