Snappy!! Miss you!
The second half of the reunion was the bash and pity Danielle episode.
Here’s my thought. Regardless of the level of involvement she had in these crimes. it was 24 yrs ago and she had children now. They need to let her move past her past and be a mom.
That said, I think she is very naive to not think this would come up at some point. When you expose yourself by being on a show yeah, things will be exposed.
Again, I go back to feeling horribly for those girls. I can’t imagine that this isn’t impacting them in a very harmful way.
“what type of behavior? don’t understand what you think he did wrong?

Brownstoner have ever heard of the “Broken Windows” theory? All it takes is one thing to happen and it’s like a waterfall.. Not one person had a problem with the usage of the “N Word”. Let ask you a question- If The What stared to use Racial Slurs (In any context) what you thing the reaction here would be????!!! I never never never use any slur (Context or No context) and I feel there should be a penalty for that! I bring it us and you say to me “Get a grip or it’s penalty box time.” that speaks “Loud and clear” to me…
The What
Someday this war is gonna end…
I agree with Dirty Hipster. Certainly an innovator of pop but hadn’t made any really serious music since the mid 80’s. If he wasn’t so “eccentric” (if he was poor we’d be calling him a POS child molestor) people would have lost interest in him long ago. It’s sad someone died but I’m sure there were others who died yesterday, anonymous people more deserving of a memeorial.
Mr. B, how can you not understand what the What is unhappy about? I think his point is that nobody should ever use the word, especially when one can be just as easily understood by using the expression “n-word.” It’s his opinion that the word, spelled out, should never be used — no matter the context.
He did pay $20 MM to a boy in a civil suit that he lost.
Goldie – I will agree with you there on the media point!
THL/Insert – renunion 2 was WHOA – what the heck happened at the end?
What, stop using the N-word. You’re just trivializing it.
Come on, Michael jackson made music that will still be playing and entertaining people in 50 years time. Fawcett, may she rest in peace, was just good looking, there was no talent. No comparison.
THL…hola! What did you think of the second part of the reunion? Or is that not to be discussed today (I just realized the OT said MJ edition…)
