You're crazy and stupid! HA!
Michael Jackson Jackson just had to make Thriller and that made him relevant. He is the most influential entertainer ever. He started great music videos, etc. First black man on MTV. It goes on and on.

Every single entertainer today says the same thing.

Is that the same village where they made your counterfeit watch?

I ask myself 'what does this have to do with Meatloaf' and the answer is nothing, not a damn thing.

Another Tag, but a higher model. I had a Tag Heuer Carrera before with the black rubber wristband.

You Sir, take it to a whole different level. I, like everyone else on here, can just feel the rage emanating from your posts.

You have insulted a multitude of members here on many different levels. ... and frankly it appears that you go out your way to do it.

Yes, I may have insulted a few members here but I usually tend to apologize to them afterwards. .... and I feel bad about it.... the insult that is.. not the apology.

How about you tell me what it means....

A moderator is free to change the title of this thread. I've already admitted that it's harsh and it should be about famous people in general.

Videos are dying out.. so to call him the most influential entertainer ever is incorrect.

Would you suggest the title be changed to:

Famous People: Drug Addicts?

Good for Micheal Jackson. Musically he will be considered a legend and given his due. As a performer and entertainer there's certainly a case that could be made that he was the biggest of all time. You started the thread about Johnny Cash and called him insignificant throughout many posts. You are incorrect, Cash was a legend and certainly not insignificant. The fact that you are getting people defending him in such high volume on this thread is evidence of that.

I'll try to keep it on track. A pie chart analyzing Meatloaf:

I have an IronMan.

I never thought to brag about my watch on the internet though, so maybe I'll have to get a snazzier one.

Actually I'd like to see some kind of redeeming factor to this thread, discussion about something other than bickering.

Talk about something or the thread will be locked.

How about, "I like Michael Jackson"? We could talk about what he does, where he lives maybe even his shoes...

I already said I was harsh, but compared to Michael Jackson, I think he is insignificant.

You put those 2 men side by side, and Cash is squashed.

Are you on drugs? Who bragged?

I once put my watch on sale in this forum for $800 under it's retail value. retail was about $3200.

I then had a bunch od idiots who questioned if it was the "real thing".

You also brought that old thread up now.

Aren't you a tough guy. As far as mods go, you're not nearly as influential as Jorge. And your watch sucks.
